Focus of this stream will be on four games: Redfall, Minecraft, ESO Online and Forza. Also focus on Game Pass titles for February.


To dedicate the proper amount of time for a deep dive into Bethesda Game Studios’ Starfield, a standalone show is in the works.

This is definitely a smaller, Nintendo Direct/State of Play level event, so expectations should be set accordingly.

Looking forward to seeing more on Forza/Minecraft/Redfall though!

Still wish they’d show off this fucking halo battle royale (tatanka from certain affinity) for infinite instead elder scrolls online… or just both, like wtf 343. They finally are done with half/year spaced out seasons, figured they’d show SOMETHING because I don’t think a battle royale mode is E3 worthy

Can we just skip this and go right to the Starfield showcase?

I'm excited to get my hands on Forza, Minecraft, and to a lesser extent Redfall. Not sure I need a deep dive on these as much as release dates, though.
 
I always enjoy a good games presentation, Unless it is bad then I do not enjoy it.
Aren't "deep dives/ extended gameplay" showings those shows that spend way too much time on all games and even make the good ones appear boring? I can't stand marketing fluff from overly enthusiastic presenters and a group of devs circle jerking for their own game for 5 or 10 minutes. That length is reserved for reviews that actually say good and bad stuff about the game.

Where are properly tight shows, that are only accompanied by deep dive things afterwards?

Redfall deep dive won't hurt as it seems that people are still confused about what kind of a game it really is.

Wonder what will be there "one more thing"
They’ll reiterate the GwG you can get this month.

They’ll also introduce the guy who picks the games. He wears ironic T-shirts and anything to him is good as long as it’s not popular.
 
Nothing of interest for me , I’ll wait till another show. I have to say it’s a good job they bought Bethesda.

I really hope 2023 isn’t just what 2022 should of been.

Yeah, even when Bethesda still where third party the Bethesda games where all coming to Xbox, so there was no need for MS to buy Bethesda.
Same is also true for Activision Blizzard, all does games where coming to Xbox anyway...Let that sink in......
