    Marvel Rivals

    Goes to show what I know about the popularity of hero shooters. The trailer on the Marvel YT channel alone has 1.4mil views in under 24 hours, and I’ve seen a lot of people on Twitter say they think the trailer is good and excited for it I was trying to hedge my bets a little bit because I’ve never played a game in this genre. But I think the game looks quite good as well The idea of Marvel characters running around shooting each other sounds dumb, but having seen it they’ve got my interest. Not saying it looks amazing or my most anticipated game or anything, but it looks kinda good

    I think any trailer goes, as long as it’s one you think is good. I think that Gears trailer was the trend setter for slow, sad versions of upbeat songs that Giant Bomb used to joke about all the time

    It's not really like Fortnite though. Fortnite is a battle royale game with some building mechanics and also has no character classes to my knowledge. This is a 6on6 arena shooter where every character has a unique set of abilities. Closer to Overwatch or Paladins.

  6. That Donkey Kong game is really bloody good. I’d certainly recommend it. Gone for Darius Burst: Chronicle Saviors, and Slaps And Beans 2 in the Spring Sale.

    Looks like Fortnite. No thanks. FTP games are ironically the easiest to ignore even if the barrier to entry is actually less than any other game. Can’t stand them.

    Are we talking tv spots or actual reveal trailers... as those are usually very different things. Whatever though... I like a good trailer either way... Game ended up nothing like the trailer but this is still fucking amazing all these years later. Iconic...

    Diablo IV

    One of the best things about us here at Xbox is your games go with you wherever you choose to play Except for Diablo 4 No cloud nothing, no achievement nothing, no play anywhere nothing. I knew there would be no achievements, but I was sort of hoping it would be a shared save on Xbox so I could have them pop over on console version I get this is technically a legacy Battle net game so not as simple for Diablo 4 to have all the same features as their other games. But it can't be impossible. Hopefully they fix it down the line as it feels like kind of a miss.

    Different developer, game, everything, etc. But the last F2P Marvel game was Marvel Snap which is excellent. So it's not impossible. I think a bigger challenge for this game is selling a hero shooter in 2024

    It's still an awful business model for the end user in most cases though. I don't remember where I read it, but someone once said that they don't play f2p games because they're too expensive, and that kind of hits the nail on the head. While there certainly are a few positive exceptions, the usual way these things go is that they're designed like predatory FOMO machines first, and good games second. And my trust in Disney to put out something that doesn't have 'generate big money' as its primary mission statement is relatively low. But we'll see I guess.

    That MvC3 trailer is epic, actually. I haven't seen that before. I love the Mirror's Edge trailer and the song as well. There's lots of good GMV's for that on Youtube. The art style for that game is still brilliant.
  14. I've always liked this one. It's such a simple concept with a camera panning around different elaborate dioramas, but it really nails the style and the essence of the game. It's too bad this came out before the 4K days, this would look absolutely phenomenal in a higher resolution. Second pick would be the trailer for Mirror's Edge's first unveiling. That theme song still fits like a glove and it's such a good representation of what the game is about, showing off a bit of raw, unedited parkour, how they use colour as a main tool for building different moods and scenarios and just the general sense of freedom and independance it's going for with its storyline. I don't think there has ever been a trailer that impressed me more than this. I also just noticed that both have zero voice over or dialogue snippets, which gives everything else you see and hear more room to breathe.

    it doesn't look like my sort of thing tbh. you'd hope it might be more accessible given the license, so maybe give it a go

    One thing I actually really like is game trailers. Even though trailers are just marketing, I think there is a craft to it and when done well it's more than just a tool for hype. It's part of the experience of enjoying entertainment. First one for me is SS4 Gogeta trailer for DBFZ This is super cool. Reason 1 is at the time this seemed like the end of FighterZ, so the music choice fits it not only because Gogeta is a GT character and so is the music, but because GT was meant to be the finale for DB and it seemed like so was this DLC for DBFZ. As an extra, the way the music gets louder in the mix towards to end really works for me. It's very well done. Second reason is they did some super cool stuff in this trailer between the 2 Gogeta's. The beam clash, the DR tech, the bits where one is punching the other into immediate edit of one kicking the other. Is really cool. You can tell this wasn't just shots slapped together, they really thought about it. Thirdly, when Gogeta says "I got something real special for ya" that is he's OHKO super where if you get tagged with it, even at full health, you just die lol. But no one knew this until just before the character released so they actually managed to sneak the surprise in the trailer, without people knowing it, and saying look we have a surprise for ya. I love this trailer. I come back and watch this quite a lot. There's a few more I really like as well but thought I would see if others have suggestions before I just blast all the ones I like.
  17. By popular demand! No
  18. XV is just bad. Really bad.
  19. Yes, but it was seeing the other members grid that gave me the courage to admit the truth. Truth is hard. So very hard. Can't we do a FF15 forum playthru.
  20. You don't become right by pointing to more wrong people
  21. From what I remember from the thread, I wasn't the only one.😀

    TopSpin 2K25

    Launching April 26th. I'm in the mood for a new tennis game, it's been a while. I might pick this one up on day one.
  23. XVI's sidequests (and some of its main quests) are almost as good as the sidequest in Remake where you look for a bunch of cats, the one where Cloud says out loud 'this sucks'.
  24. I'm not trying to act like I'm good at it or I'm regularly successful at it, but I think my favourite game right now is playing footsies. I love dash blocking, I love shimmying, I love just getting the distance right when the tip of the hit box catches the opponents feet. It's so satisfying and good feeling. When it works. Which is like 3/10 times. But, man, it's fun shit
  25. Don't forget, I've played ff15 3 times and it's in my top 25 thingy on the forum. I have infinite patience for pointless side quests, as long as the fighting and characters hit home.
  26. I read FF16 has the posturing of GoT but is actually more like WWE But I don’t watch either so I dunno
