Ubi:
Rainbow 6 Extraction looked better than I expected, but still just ok.
Mario+Rabbids was nice.
Avatar was amazing.

Xbox:
Starfield was short but left me excited.
Forza Horizon 5 looks great.
The Outer Wilds 2 had a great trailer.
Stalker 2 looked interesting.
Atomic Heart looked interesting.
Contraband looked interesting.
Plague Tale 2 is great.
Redfall was extremely disappointing.

Nintendo:
Metroid Dredd looks great.
BOTW2 was extremely exciting but has left me feeling nervous.



Xbox had the best show imo. They felt like a non pandemic year which is disappointing because of the Xbox+Bethesda potential, but a solid 6 or 7 out of 10.

Ubisoft had the best reveal with Avatar imo. I'm biased but when comparing it to Starfield, The Outer Worlds 2, and BOTW2, it actually showed a lot. Don't think it makes up for the rest of the show. Solid 5 or 6 out of 10.

Nintendo had what will end up being the best game, but I don't think it was a good showing. Solid 5 or 6 out of 10.



TLDR: yeah very bad year but I'm glad the companies still put these shows together.
