Eh, 3DS are easy to hack and I'm sure there's places to get these games for free, similar to WiiWare

[Nintex]

DOA6 is pretty awesome but I made a mistake ordering and didn't get the Digital Deluxe ed.

Trying to get a refund from MS tommorow so I can buy the proper version

Is there no subtitles in Planescape Torment: Enhanced Edition? Supposedly there is, but I don't see an option to turn them on/off anywhere and the scenes so far don't have them.

[Svejk]

[Don Rumata]

Looks good.
I find Joel and Ellie to be boring characters, so i'm intrigued by the new ones, they look, at least, more interesting and peculiar.

Canceled Prince Of Persia game footage from 2012:

[EchoRin]

If there is another PoP down the line I'd rather they keep it much more PG and fairy tale-like rather than the PG-13 grit. That trailer was pretty 2012 with the brown and grey style palette. 

[Positive Touch]

that's real detailed for a canceled title. looked alright except for the choad prince design

[MMaRsu]

Just a vertical slice /proof of concept

[Don Rumata]

Yeah it looks like a concept video, more than a vertical slice, even.

Also it looks awful both in gameplay ideas, and in art style.
Stop with the Middle East/Mexico/Africa need the piss filter so brain damaged people can understand it's a hot place. 

I don't even think they should bring PoP back, unless they have a strong gameplay idea beyond redoing Sands of Time.

lmao Micro$oft keeps sucking corporate dick. Didn't refund after first saying they would because I already have an achievement or 2 in the game.
Unless I buy this game twice, I'll be forever locked out of the Digital Deluxe content that is only part of that package.

[benjipwns]

I'll always be conflicted between wanting a PoP 2008 sequel and wanting the original/PC ending to stand.

[Spieler1]

I still have to play PoP2008. Looks great visually, but I remember finding Sands of Time super boring and repetitive after only a couple of hours and then never bothering with the series again.

[EchoRin]

Maybe it's time to bring the Prince of Persia back to its 2D roots. OG PoP man is so  . Still totally playable today.

Spare yourself.  PoP2008 is so bad, bland, boring and repetitive.  It's the worst.

[MMaRsu]

There's nothing bland about it but Nolan North

The original is still the best one

[MMaRsu]

Anyone play that SM64 PC port yet that supports 4k and controller support without an emulator?

I have it, its pretty awesome.

[Trent Dole]

Peggle 2 is 1.19 on xbone right now and I didn't have it so I'm now installing.

[Joe Molotov]

Needs more Old Town Road.

If you think games like Naughty Dog's are movie games, PoP 2008 is 10 times that.
Aside from the fact that you literally can't die in the game, everything is so automated and rigid, that watching it on Youtube isn't really all that different than playing it.
It is pretty though, even though i personally don't like the more fantasy art direction all that much.

[nachobro]

the original game was really cool looking for the time cause of the animation but so goddamn overly hard. the ps2 games were fun but generic looking and and then turned the prince into a linkin park listening, hot topic shopper. 2008 really was gorgeous but mindnumbingly easy.

one day that series will hit a good middle ground...or it'll just go away forever. one of those two...

[HardcoreRetro]

Anyone watching the Inside Xbox thing?

[nachobro]

bloodlines 2

[HardcoreRetro]

The space combat game looked pretty cool as well. Chorvs.

[nachobro]

the future of games is starfox with raytracing and i'm ok with that

[HardcoreRetro]

That yamaoko music only to reveal a fucking Bloober team horror game...

[nachobro]

i think at this point i've come around on Y7 and i'm ready to roll with it

[nachobro]

they forgot to put the gameplay in the assassins gameplay video

[HardcoreRetro]

How was this gameplay? At least Ashraf Ismail has a good track record with being the director on Black Flag and Origins.

[nachobro]

it seemed to be all crossgen stuff but since it'll upgrade to the xsx version that seems fine. kind of a good move in hindsight now that corona is gonna kill the world economy and no one is gonna want to buy a new console.

[HardcoreRetro]

Listening to the Bloober guy talk they have the right ideas. Now they just need game design that's worth a shit.

hardcore toku shit

The reception from resetera proves for the millionth time that "hardcore enthusiast" gamers are the dumbest, least versed people possible. With a global pandemic and the global economy about to tank, people have great disdain that a Inside Xbox streaming event didn't have "next gen" games.

Life must not be that different when you never left the house to begin with.

[MMaRsu]

When you hype the event up to showcase next gen gameplay



and then dont show anything

people are not gonna like it

I'm an essential worker during the pandemic, I don't have the time nor energy to read Xbox tweets about inside Xbox streams. I'm very happy for those that do.

[nachobro]

you'd think the hardcore gamerz who are industry experts wouldn't be taken off guard by seeing that cross gen launch titles aren't bangers out the gate and also would know not to take marketing at face value lol

talking the wider internet, not this board specifically

[Positive Touch]

is there any other hobby out there with such consistently miserable fans as gaming? like imagine if a movie buff saw a movie they hated and then spent the next 16 fucking years searching out online discussions to talk about how that movie was the worst piece of shit they ever saw, all the actors in it were terrible, the movie studio committed some unforgivable sin by releasing it, the fans were idiots, and the entire medium itself has been on a decline since the film's release. that's what it's like talking to a fucking gamer.

That sucks to hear man, and the best of luck to you in these trying times but don't rage on people because Xbox hyped it up as something amazing, when it really wasn't.

When movies become as jaded as games have become, samey shit over and over again, call me back.

The only interesting things I saw were that Island game and Vampires.

The rest was boring in engine trailers. How am I supposed to get hyped behind that?

Pretty boring all told.

The Medium gives me major Silent Hill vibes. Scorn looking as HR Giger as ever (or more?). Nothing else stood out to me.

[Joe Molotov]

When’s Tales of Arise coming out, Scamco, you twats?

"George Lucas destroyed my childhood"

Little known fact: a third of the domains hosted on The Bore's IP are Star Wars fan sites

[Akala]

I really like how they are including the better versions on most of these upcoming cross-gen games, even if there isn't a lot I am hype about as of now. That's never happened before?

[Bebpo]

Looks a lot like God Eater.

[Nintex]

I greatly enjoyed the variety on display and not just seeing the usual multiplatform yearly third party reveals.

Chinese Crysis 
Dirt 5 
Creepy alien game 
Control in Space 
EA Jank 21 
Just Dance Vampires 
Call of Sea: Walking Warfare 
Blade Ascent 2049 
Medium Gear Stranding 
Astral Nier Nexus 
DOOM DINOSAUR EXTINCTION 
Like a Shenmue 
Creed of War: Valhalla 

Ubisoft classy interiors 

Microsoft employee dorm rooms 


"At the time England was a broken...."  not just at the time


I'm willing to sit through an infomercial for Microsoft Teams Virtual Backgrounds if they keep pumping billions and bilions into video games and crunching themselves to death throughout the summer.

Also wanted to share this channel here because there a LOT of making of's he's done and so far they are all amazing, never heard of this channel

[nachobro]

Gamers are worse though, but nothing is worse than comic stans. That's a whole other can of worms. Same with weebs who cross over with gamers.

[mormapope]

To my knowledge, there hasn't been the equivalent of gamer gate or swatting in any other medium than gaming.

As in, the people that treated gamer gate as a serious issue, and the incel droves that demanded fair videogame journalism, to the point of starting a harassment campaign.
