Hopefully I enjoy Metroid Prime 4 as much as you’re enjoying this.

This is seemingly a very close comparison actually. “Great new installment in a series that’s been dormant for over a decade with a couple annoying parts because the studio wants to try new things and not let the series die for that long again”

I still have faith in Metroid if it’s true that the quippy guy disappears after a short time.

Have all said it's coming imminently in the past 7 days. According to GabeFollower, the plan to announce HL3 in 2025 has not changed. According to Tom and Mike, the announcement will not be at The Game Awards. The first leak that opened the floodgates stated it would be the week following the Frame/Machine announcement. Half-Life released November 19th, Half-Life 2 released November 16th, Half-Life Alyx was revealed November 21st.

And of course, this. It's absolutely coming within a week, possibly in the next 4 days.

EDIT: Now we can add NateTheHate to the list. "Announcement timing is one of those things I'm working to get consensus on. I've heard very mixed things."

Oh my god just let it die already

Ubisoft still working on Beyond Good and Evil 2 as new job listings emerge

It is hard to believe but Ubisoft announced Beyond Good and Evil 2 in 2008 and since then we have seen or heard very little about the ambitious game. Following the unfortunate death of the game’s…

Time, Dr. Freeman? Is it really that time again...?

(Probably not. Every rumored reveal date was BEFORE TGA, and it was specifically stated it wouldn't happen here by a couple credible leakers. But it's always fun to believe, and they certainly upped the ante by revealing Divinity so early. No clue what the actual finale could be.)

If it’s here it’s the last one.

I doubt it will be though.

Fate of the Old Republic is likely the biggest thing here.

Expedition 33 CANNOT be THAT good

Expedition 33 CANNOT be THAT good

Everything I’ve seen says yeah, people love it.

Expedition 33 CANNOT be THAT good

It’s one of the best games I’ve ever played. The story and world is super compelling, and the gameplay is layered with nuances that requires paying attention without feeling unapproachable. Never mind how gorgeous and creative the design is.

It wears its Final Fantasy influences on its sleeve (it feels a LOT) like FFX, but that’s a feature not a bug. It takes that formula and modernizes it to near perfection. It’s been years since I’ve jonesed to immediately restart a single player game like Expedition 33. Even going through my To Play list… I’m just itching to get back to THAT game (and that itch lasted through a 94% completion of Silksong). Yes, the game is that good.
