Oh man, Arcade1Up is making a TMNT cabinet that includes The Arcade Game and Turtles in Time. I’m tempted. They’re also making a Marvel cabinet which includes XMen: Children of the Atom, Super Heroes and The Punisher.

I have to say, I'm pretty underwhelmed by the announcements coming out of E3 this year.

I've never played a baldurs gate game, but with Larian Studios making 3 I'll definitely be picking it up.

The divinity original series are my all time favorite games.

Same. I haven't seen anything that excited me.

I'm excited to play a lot of previously announced games, but very few of the new announcements.

I'm intrigued by Elden Ring based on the names involved, and i'm cautiously optimistic about the new Star Wars based on the gameplay demoed. Death Stranding still looks weird as hell and i'm not sure i can hop on board with another Kojima melodrama cut-scene fest - but i'm definitely curious. I guess it's somewhat telling that Sony didn't feel compelled to make an appearance.

Sony's absence said everything. Both Microsoft and Sony are really gearing up for next gen and it just too early to announce anything of note.

Yeah, Microsoft going crazy and announcing all this next gen stuff wouldn't make sense. That's 18 months out. It makes sense that this E3 is the weakest, and I bet next year is a lot crazier.

Full Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order Demo Shows Off More Of Its Metroid Influences
https://kotaku.com/full-star-wars-jedi- ... 1835839272

Anyone who saw the glimpse of Respawn’s upcoming Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order at E3 earlier this month and thought it was disappointingly linear may be far more interested in this new footage, which demonstrates more of the game’s Metroidy influences.
I've been following Jason's reaction to the game. Metroid influences can only help.

Seems like a good mix of exploration + hacky slashy, without a big emphasis on open world stuff (which I like right now). Looks like a modern update on Shadows of the Empire. Can’t wait.
EA and Star Wars carries a lot of baggage that bogs down the overall excitement. I think it will be a good game given the pedigree of Respawn. It just looks like it needs more polish and refinement.
