Hope that mystery game is Timesplitters related!

Literally shaking right now..... Just kidding.

Looking forward to more info on Darksiders Genesis & Biomutant.

Very much looking forward to new gameplay trailers for Biomutant, Darksiders Genesis, Desperados III and Destroy All Humans Remake. Hoping for some release dates too!!!

 

[Saber]

I want to see more of Biomutant and perhaps a little of Darksiders. Just note that I still have 0% interest on buying these games...but who knows. Maybe something catch my attention.

Biomutant is the thirst bringer for me.
I am not a huge fan of darksiders but I'm not a hater. I do feel each iteration has got worse and less focused though.
DAH! Is a bit meh, I clocked it on 360 but dont know if theres enough kitsch to get me to double dip. Theres too much competition for my time.
Desparados and spongebob not for me.
The unnamed title could be. Have ti wait and see.....timesplitters seems a solid bet. Been years since I played it. Not sure how good a reimagining will be.

Interested in:
Biomutant (looks like a nice RPG)
Desperados III (their last game, Shadow Tactics, was great)
Darksiders Genesis (similar to Diablo).

Sirma'am, I am a nonbinary Chopper person and I don't appreciate this blatant offense on coping with my struggles on how to be a real Apachi.

 

[Animagic]

Can’t wait for Darksiders Genesis to come out.

Also, Timesplitters incoming?

Really? I enjoyed and thought that Darksiders III was the best in the series with Darksiders 1 being second and Darksiders 2 being third. Even though it's an isometric twin stick hack and slash shooter, im very much looking forward to Darksiders Genesis and next gen's Darksiders IV.

 

[The Cockatrice]

Ultra mega hyped about Desperados 3. Shadow Tactics is one of the best stealth games I ever played.

 

[JoeyWestSide]

Been waiting for Biomutant since e3 2018, can't wait to hear more about it.

I'm triggered by your misspelling of Apache, a great and noble people. To cope, I will cuddle Chris, my gender fluid therapy platypus (Yes, shitlord, you can tell when a monotreme is fluid).

 

[Thabass]

The mystery game better be Saint's Row V.

 

[EverydayBeast]

Big pay day for THQ Nordic

I am triggered by your spelling of Apachi. Platypi can not only be fluid but they can also be nonbinary, solid, and gassy.

 

[Dthomp]

I know it won't....but PLEASE be Saints Row 5.

 

[crumbs]

On-topic: Are there rumors of Timesplitters coming back or is this wishful thinking?

Platypi can not only be fluid but they can also be nonbinary, solid, and gassy.

That is true. Chris gets really gassy after eating my free range kale chips. I gave xer some of my home made kombucha to settle xir's stomach, but Chris just ended up having diarrhea all over the commune.

 

[Kadve]

The mystery game better be Saint's Row V.

Probably won't. THQN lets Deep Silver do the announcements for their own games.

 

[Fake]

Great fan of Darksiders, but this don't look good for me.
Lets see if at least Biomutant is that good.

 

[Mista]

I’m so hyped for BioMutant. Played it last year in our local GamesCon and even though it was in alpha, it was great and I had fun.

 

[Goff2k]

A proper Down of War would be nice. Just retcon 3 and not have Gabriel Angelos do somersaults in a Terminator armor.

 

[Otterz4Life]

I wish every company did this for gaming conventions. The secrecy is starting to get old tbh.
