I wasn't able watch it, I read the comments in the thread, everyone are either a bunch of Debbie downers or that show was awful.
 
D for DOGSHIT

I love Geoff's enthusiasm, he does a lot of good things for the industry and I honestly believe he tries his best but these shows cater to casuals when only hardcore gamers watch these things and he should know this by now.

I can't remember the last time he had an actually good show, it's literally one disappointment after the other.
 
E Is perfect because this wasn't an F but only the Persona 3 Reload announcement, the Little Nightmares 3 and spinoff titles looked cool and the Amazon Prime TV stuff has promise. I am just not a Western gamer as far as taste goes and I felt like more than 75% of this show was based off this.
 
Somewhere between C and D, I think

There were a few games I really enjoyed, but not too many. Some I also felt were good, but are not my type of games (Arkham Shadow and Reanimal)

Dying Light: The Beast is definitely something I'm very excited about. I love they decided to bring back Kyle Crane. It's also cool that it seems this DLC got expanded into standalone thingie

Monster Hunter looks fantastic. I also loved Mafia reveal at the end, the atmosphere of that trailer was great. I'm quite curious about Indiana Jones. I'm still not completely convinced towards its direction, but MachineGames did some of my favorite games so I'm hopeful it will turn out okay
 
Being generous, I give it a D (of Doritos). Most games shown there weren't for me, I'm not very interested on them or were just small updates of games we already knew about.

Highlights for me: Terry gameplay for SF6, Mai for Fatal Fury, tha gaming short films anthology Secret Levels, Monster Hunter Wilds, Monument Valley 3.

I feel like gaming can't get me excited anymore. Like people are getting hype about Monster Hunter, but it's what, like the 10th fucking MH game? 20th? Remember when Capcom made amazing, new IP?
 
Didn't watch/10. From the highlights, Indy going to PS5 in Spring seems like the biggest announcement.

Also, I thought DS2 was getting a showing?
 
A-

Much better than Summer Games Fest and better pacing too. Geoff finally left some good content for the end instead of using all of it at the beginning like usual.

I don't have expectations for Xbox's show since they already had a phenomenal summer show. We'll see what happens.

The reason why Geoff was off stage so often is because he's secretly a necromancer and he was bringing #1 bullshit artist Peter Molyneux back from the grave to peddle another scheme.
 
More importantly, the show finally found it's own identity. More european and eastern titles were featured instead of previous gamescoms that were 90% US summer show leftovers. I'm hoping they keep going in this direction and leave the US stuff for SGF and TGA.

There are a lot of euro AA and indie devs that could use a spotlight.
 
I don't know why we keep watching shows from the non-platform holders. They're all just wastelands of shovelware with one or two trailers worth watching.

Just catch up later from now on.

Second game showed( cod I think) and started doing chores on my home while only listening to the show. 95% was generic multiplayer games that somehow where the dream of some indie team. However, it had good reveals, so C.
