If all goes well I can easily see it competing with Breath of the Wild for most outlet's GOTY. That'll be a tough call!

That'll be a tough call! Not for me. Easiest choice ever. Now pit it up against Wonder Boy and that'll be a harder choice.
Ronnie Posted August 24, 2017 Posted August 24, 2017 We all have our individual tastes but going by reviews/industry chatter it sounds like the only thing that can stop BOTW in the big names' eyes is Mario and possibly Persona.

Hero-of-Time Posted August 25, 2017 Author Posted August 25, 2017 Man, this Xenoblade 2 section has been very boring to watch. Not Pokemon Sun and Moon E3 levels of boring, but still boring nonetheless. A snappy new trailer would have been better than this.
Dcubed Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 Yeah, it's been a good show overall. Was hoping for a bit more in terms of surprises (and eShop sales) but it's been good overall

My only disappointment has been the lack of info in regards to certain indie games but this may change during the up and coming PAX show. Looking forward to seeing the couple of indie games on show tomorrow.
Sméagol Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 Nine parchments looks good. Assuming it's online, would perhaps be cool to add another NE multiplayer game to the roster..

Ronnie Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 They had a very good presence overall. The livestream was a bit pants what with the poor quality and poor hosts/Treehouse though
Dufniall Posted August 27, 2017 Posted August 27, 2017 So I visited Gamescom yesterday since I could go there with my work. I only had about 3,5 hours on the floor itself, so me and some colleagues rushed past all the booths to get a general feel of the event. Huge stages from Blizzard, Square-Enix, Ubisoft and EA. Playstation focused mostly on PSVR, while Microsoft didn't let me see the XBox One X since it was invitational only. Naturally I lingered a bit longer at the Nintendo booth! Last year Nintendo's stand was almost nonexistent so it was great to see they were there now with a big and busy stand. Unfortunately cues for the big titles such as Metroid, Mario Odyssey and FE Warriors were all 1+ hours, so I had no time to go hands-on. But I can give you some photo impressions of the booth! Rabbids was a part of Ubisoft gigantic stand: And on the Nintendo stand Rabbids were also present: One-hour cue for Samus Returns. Take note Nintendo, Samus is still very popular, so hurry up with Prime 4! Lines for Fifa on Switch as well: Overall look of Ninty's hangout:https://www.dropbox.com/s/924ckjjhlojnbz3/P_20170826_132923_vHDR_On.jpg?raw=1 Met the man himself! 5
