Some were sincere and some were not.

Would you agree?

When audio is entirely gone in large sections of important scenes, or the sound is totally out of sync when characters speak, that's not "the odd bug or glitch" - it's a major issue.

There were some 'major' technical issues with this game pre-patch, and I'd wager a good portion of the middling reviews took these into account, especially the earlier ones.

These issues existed, and were patched. You can see it in the patch not...

Oh absolutely. Metro Exodus oozes atmosphere and personality, while Rage 2 somehow utterly fails at the latter.
All that over-the-top neon-y, punky, tattooe-y, bloodiness and the game still has no fucking personality.

It is a video game. You shoot bad guys and kill them with powers, then you look for crates with pink lids. It's extremely pedestrian, but there is enjoyment to be had for awhile. However, in your free time, this will likely be your last choice.

It's one of those games that's really fun to play once it gets going, and you think about it when you're not playing. Granted, the game took about an hour to find its footing (which almost made me quit) but it opens up quickly afterward. Stick with it.

So far I agree.

I'll probably remain in agreement up until The Last of Us II. Then I just know I'll have to disagree.

Bland and average? The game world is gorgeous, but YouTube videos don't do it justice. The foliage is superb as is the way it reacts to weather.

Not necessarily. It all depends on how Microsoft use their time. Will they waste it with "World Premier" (s) of mostly third party nonsense, or will they focus on first party, and pull some aces they've been saving for the moment?

Just because Sony isn't there doesn't mean Microsoft can or will dominate; they could very, very easily squander this opportunity.

Why do people keep asking "Lose what?"

Too many people are thinking along the context of 'losing a contest,' but that's not what's being implied.

Microsoft is a lone big boy at this E3, and with Sony's absence, they're in a unique position to make their case unimpeded. When you look at it from this perspective, this E3 is Microsoft's to lose; moreover, it's theirs to lose and theirs to lose alone.

I'm assuming you were typing from your phone at the time of this comment, and I'm also assuming you meant 'brightness.'

That was a good one.

That's an odd reaction. There's nothing for me to get over, as I'm not concerned for anyone or anything in this case.

I'm well aware of the goings-on and general climates of various workplaces, and, like I said, I'm not really concerned for these employees - I'm sure they're fine. The word "humane" is a dramatic one though, and with a cursory glance, would give most people pause.

Which stage's showings had the press and people the most intrigued, basically. Who eclipsed who, and so on and so forth.

This is an opportunity for Microsoft; a unique opportunity to say the least. Don't squander it, Phil.

Yeah, I've gotta go with Bloodborne as well. Couldn't put the game down. That's how you know you've got a winner; when you can't stop playing a game, or when you crave it when you're away from it.

Different tastes.

Some people absolutely love their after-work ritual of putting on the headset and teaming up with their friends for hours. That's no less valid than the person who loves shutting out the world an immersing him/herself in a good single-player, story-driven game.

What's mundane to you isn't necessarily mundane to someone else.

DG stacks up to Witcher 3 quite well in terms of wind and foliage. The two are comparable in that regard. I don't think it 'beats' Witcher 3, but it comes close.

Days Gone wipes the floor with a lot of games, visually speaking. I compared the visuals to Witcher 3 a lot as I was playing. I think Witcher 3 still holds up.

As long as they retain that signature Borderlands charm and gunplay, I'll be happy.

It's definitely a solid performer, but I don't think it's one of the best looking. Just my two cents.

Pretty much.
