So Sky is finally coming to Switch. It's from That Game Company. The studio that also made Flower and Journey.

I don't understand why they didn't capitalize on their popularity after releasing Journey and got funding to release Sky on every possible platform.

I believe it was an Apple Arcade moneyhat.

Nothing has looked worse than The Anacruses so far though.

And then they showed us a wheezer boat skateboarding game.

It feels like a sci-fi left for dead. I dunno if it gets some polish it might be all right, but it had better be billed and priced as an indy game for sure.

If they cut out all the stuff people don't care about, they probably could have brought this in at 45min.

Are you over here telling me you aren't watching this for a new Sonic game with the same graphics and feel as all the others, but now with a fully symphonic soundtrack?

Vikings are to the 2020s what Zombies were to the aughts it seems.

I get the hate, and IDGAF about all the multi updates either; but the show needs sponsors. And Geoff has a vision of shows that include music.
So you end up with a mix of "something for everyone"

ELDUUUUUIN RIIIIIING!

yawn another souls-like.

Tribes of Midgar- I like the Action-RPG... but I don't care about survival/base-building bits

(had to take a work call, s catching up on a paused stream , )

Okay that last send off - Where Keighly tried to connect Summer Games Fest with all the other events the coming weekend, and not mentioning E3.

Keighly is basically aiming to just outright kill E3 and absorb it's power at this point I assume?

At this rate Keighly truly will become the Doritos Pope of video games by 2030.

Nothing that really excited me at this show. Just a bunch of stuff in a new package. No megatons besides Elden Ring. Meh.

huh, bold.

An actual release date.

That actually looks amazing.

[Obdigore]

This indiana jones style dungeon crawl game looks really cool

[Malankazooie]

I'm sorta feeling the Evil Dead game too. I watched the series that aired on Starz and it was a hoot. This game is a direct extension of that it looks like (same cast). If you haven't watched it, try and find it, it has comical amounts of blood and gore.

Did a bit of digging, some cool stuff coming from the new Deep Silver label, Prime Matter.

Should be a cool stream tomorrow, they've got about 7 new IPs, primarily action and RPG stuff, mostly sci-fi themed

[Malankazooie]

Dropped in on that Koch Primetime stream and dipped out after about 5 min. Looks like it's going to be just interviews. These guys are the ones who showed a montage of games they have in the pipeline during the SGF yesterday, right? Like the next Payday game?

I guess I'll see what the IGN Expo is about next.

Prime Matter's stream was horrible. Way too long, no B-roll footage, so just a bunch of 15 min interviews with the devs.

Key points:



Only gameplay of any significance, for a game called "Scars Above"


-old trailers for Dolmen, King's Bounty 2 and Encased: Sci-Fi RPG

The devs who made Ruiner, are making a sci-fi shooter (and you can also be a bike with guns)



-Saber is making a new Painkiller game with a bunch of ex-iD folks

A couple more games, that sound kinda cool, but have literally nothing to show except devs talking about them

The IGN Expo seemed to be a little better. They would run blocks of trailers during their stream. I didn't watch it all, but I did see new a Sifu trailer. I'm intrigued by that game personally. Oh yeah, there was a pretty cool looking Sherlock Holmes game. Bramble: The Mountain King looked like some kind of reverse Brothers Grim nightmare - kid go stabby stabby. And I would like to know more about Inkulinati.

[EDIT] Is the Guerrilla Collective thing worth checking out to kick off tomorrow's streams?
