Showcase has slowed down a fair bit now. Will probably pick up towards the end with Kojima, Persona and Starfield.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Ah I get what you mean nowOh I agree. Most won't ever see or understand, but it really does show off what the X can do and will always be a true show of power. It's very impressive.
But Flight Sim traditionally and always should be just out of reach of even the most powerful hardware. It's just what it has always done
You're the sort of guy that would run Flight Sim for a flight whilst you're on that same flight.

Valorant would be a miserable experience on console. It's miserable enough on PC.
That's the thing if it included console that is a mic drop moment in the show, I thought that is what is was which is why I had reaction I had when it wasn't.

No, I'm not that bad!Not convinced by the Kojima stuff, even though so many leakers have called it.
Overdose is a weird name for MS to get behind unless it's a double fake by Kojima. There's also the talk of it being a game developed for the 'cloud' - that's probably just marketing, but who knows.
Plus, it's been ages since I actually liked something that Kojima did. He's the Tarentino of gaming for me. Far too self-indulgent these days.
Hot Wheels DLC in Forza Horizon 3 was fun so looking forward to that.
Who needs Horizon when you have ARK 2
Ark 2.
Not sure how I feel about that.

Does anyone remember the old 80’s cartoon Dino Riders
Arc looks just like it

It's like my every morning...
I get that but I thought Death Stranding was a pretty impressive game all round. Left me feeling emotions I didn't even know I had
MGS V was more self-indulgent and just not very good IMO
Put it on consoles and make it m+kb only for all I care
I had the Triceratops toy
Scorn has some big H.R. Giger vibes
I had some of the toys too. They were greatI had the Triceratops toy

I won't mock you for that, I get it.
We need to game at some point, I'll show you the ways of proper mouse tracking!
Bang average show, so far.
This also looks a bit naff
This looks interesting.
Flintlock has, like most of these games, already been done much better it seems.
Where's all this gameplay supposed to be? Most of this has been pre-canned.
Dungeons 2?
Oooof, not digging the cell-shading style outlines though. But I'm a sucker for Minecraft!
This has been very meh so far
Minecraft Dungeons was great craic so up for trying that despite not being into minecraft itself.
Surprised we didn't get new of the new raytracing mode for Minecraft that they've released on PC though.

Again, pre-canned.
FFS so much for actual gameplay.

PS2 game made it into the showcase
Minecraft is deceptively brilliant, especially PvP and mods.
Dungeons was very good, not sure about the RT mode but I can tell you that the whole engine isn't really easy to work with at times. I doubt that's a power issue.
Someone will claim it's representative because it's "in-engine" or some shite, but we all know that doesn't mean anything. Very few of these supposed gameplay trailers give us a good idea about how a game will actually play.
This is too long, could have left out a lot of filler... Sorry but how much more?
There's something not quite right about the animations here, but I do love the graphic style of Benedict.
Spring 2023 looks stacked.
Everything she's saying sounds pretentious as hell
Only showing stuff coming in the next 12 months was a mistake.
...of games we've already played?
Great idea and great toys. Those and OG transformers were my youth (sprinkled with some Centurions!).
What exactly do you mean? Most of the show has been gameplay? Or is the issue that it's gameplay clips cut together?
Agreed. Xbox need to show less stuff more often rather than having 1 big showcase each year.
Those smaller gamepass gems that are a big part of the reason I love the subscription just get swallowed up by the bigger stuff, and the bigger stuff doesn't get the attention it needs.
There are worse names but I kinda see what you mean. I agree about Kojima but he's still a big get.
There does seem to be a lot of filler games. I'm sure the last two or three will be big though. Maybe even a surprise 3rd party Game Pass announcement.
