I lost count, but I&#8217;ve reached 5 times the number of times they&#8217;ve written or said &#8220;Xbox exclusive.&#8221; Why not do something everyone can enjoy? Please.<\/p>\n<p>If there&#8217;s one interesting thing to remember, it&#8217;s crossplay between Xbox and Windows 10. Being able to play co-op with friends on consoles while I&#8217;m on my PC is very interesting. Crossbuying is also just as interesting. However, I&#8217;m wondering how it will work. For example, if I buy the game on Steam, will I be able to sync it with my Microsoft account, or will I have to buy everything through Microsoft&#8217;s platform?<\/p>\n<p>The announcement of Gears of War 4 tells me that I&#8217;m really playing third! Forza Horizon 3 will probably make fans of this type of game happy. I&#8217;d definitely like to try it with a full-fledged racing simulator.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hW8Ja-LvxdE\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>I won&#8217;t discuss all the games that were shown in a fake &#8220;live&#8221; format because they don&#8217;t particularly interest me. Good job, though, for showing so many different games from a wide variety of studios.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m curious to learn more about their Arena and see how it will affect the esports scene.<\/p>\n<p>Many have criticized Gwent, saying it was just another card game, but I have to admit it looked pretty interesting. I&#8217;ve never played any games in the Witcher series, and I&#8217;m neither happy nor cold about Gwent being based on the third one.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ozhCMmGd7Z4\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another game that caught my eye: Halo Wars 2! I loved the first one and I&#8217;m definitely going to buy the second one during the upcoming Steam Sales.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kjN1eWhzPeA\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The highlight of the show was the Scorpio project.

Available from March 7, 2017, we&#8217;ll have the chance to play in this open world in co-op mode for up to four people.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mLd2PSNTmoI\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">South Park made me laugh from start to finish. I love the humor in the series. I haven&#8217;t played Stick of Truth but I definitely want to play it before getting the second one. Well&#8230; I know I&#8217;m a big advocate of NEVER pre-ordering games without trying them BUT, by pre-ordering the second one, they give the first one free as a bonus. So, for me who already wants to buy the first one, it&#8217;s more cost-effective for me to pre-order the second one.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qPHkWUP47os\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The VR games presented by Ubisoft, Eagle Flight and Star Trek, seem okay, but I&#8217;m convinced VR has much more potential than that.<\/p>\n<p>For Honor, as much as I want to know how Vikings, knights, and samurai ended up fighting each other, I&#8217;m also eager to try the game. If it&#8217;s anything like Destiny Warriors, a good old-fashioned &#8220;Beat &#8217;em all,&#8221; I&#8217;ll love it.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jtN2BzcYg9Q\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I tuned out when they talked about the movie.
