  1. Kojimas next big game: Amazon: The Game!
    Start in the factory and prepare packages for transport then get in the truck or van and deliver them! Once you level up enough you can even send let workers go and replace them with robots! Then set these robots to tasks around the factory and send drones to deliver packages. And at the end you can just buy up every business in the world and become the governing body for the world! Oppress its people and make them consume from the only teat that still produces: Amazon!

  2. Ironically, a diverse array of gamers all came together as a community to trounce Take Two's virtue-signaling corporate diversity seminar. I'm proud of all of them.

  3. At the end you mentioned that Forza Horizon 5 is a next gen exclusive. They did confirm that would be on both last gen and current gen hardware. Love your content, king.

  4. I'm just here to tell you all that as an old Metroid fan who remembers playing Fusion when it dropped, I literally thought I was going to die before Metroid got a new game advancing its timeline. It had been so long, I'd assumed it was basically dead and I never expected to get a more recent chronological entry than Fusion.

    Seeing the trailer for Metroid: Dread woke up a side of my childhood gaming self that I've not felt since I held a gameboy in my hands. I was grinning like a kid again, excited for a new installment in a franchise I'd long loved. And that alone made E3 worth it for me. Nintendo really knocked it out of the park for Metroid fans.

    Edit: Don't disagree with your analysis at all, btw. E3 is losing its relevance because of how they've been implementing it. Just wanted to say how for me, personally, Nintendo's showcase was a massive success.

  5. I mean I don't have a problem with Dark Souls w/ Horse but I'm not gonna blow my load over it or get over-excited like everyone else seems to. Hell the most exciting part wasn't even in the premier but in interviews where they said they were taking a page from Nioh with a weapon skill system, making co-op less of an annoyance, and letting me curate my phantoms so I can see how my friends embarrass themselves.
    My peak was still probably STALKER 2, because it didn't look like complete garbage like I was expecting.

  6. I'm so happy about Metroid being back alive.
    At least if Mercury steam hits this one out of the park, side scrolling Metroid will have a studio again.

  7. Why would polyphony be worried about Forza horizon 5? They make a racing sim game, not an open world arcade-y game. Forza Motorsport would be the series they'd be keeping an eye on.
    That's like saying Ubisoft should be worried about Warzone because both it and Siege are FPS.

  8. It's worth noting all the new heroes, maps and game mode are coming to OW1 for free, the price tag is for the story content. If this is wrong, please correct me

  9. E3 used to be such an event for gaming. I used to watch it no matter where i was. Now I don’t even care to watch it I just see the highlights like a sports game.
