Game Scoop! 704: The Big 2023 Preview

44 Comments

1. When you move something later in the calendar year, you move it back, not ahead.

2. Dude how awesome would it be to have a Pokémon game on other platforms? Preferably PlayStation, Xbox, PC or Steam? I’m sure it’s never going to happen but you have to wonder what other studios could do with that franchise.

3. Ubisoft did release a game last year… Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope.

4. Daemon keep bringing Colin back. He's great. Like me a movie lover lol.

5. The problem for me with "Bullet Train" was the commercials literally showed the ending

6. Yes Sam. Team Samurai on Elden Ring is the way to go! #BloodBuildGang

7. The fact that Baldur's Gate 3 has not been mentioned in any of IGN's "games to look forward to in 2023" material is an actual crime. That game is shaping up to be a masterpiece and has 30+ hours of content available in early access. They have said from the start that they won't be increasing the scope of early access beyond that until full release but rather have added tons of features and quality of life improvements. What's available to play already has game of the generation potential. I'm not exaggerating, BG3 could very well be the witcher 3 of this generation. It's set to release in August by the way.

8. Vampire Survivors is not on switch…. bummer

9. What a great episode! Going to be a great year!

10. Sam desperately trying to like Elden Ring by ruining its biggest appeal (organic discovery) is so funny to me for some reason

11. 1:12:17 Metal Slug 1-7 is the main franchise, 7 came out in 2008 as a Nintendo DS exclusive. Metal Slug X is an 'upgraded' version of Metal Slug 2 and Metal Slug XX is the same for Metal Slug 7.

12. Why would you even assume it was Iwata that announced Metroid Prime 4 was restarting development? He died in 2015, Metroid Prime 4 was first announced in 2017 at e3 and then Shinya Takahashi announced in a video that development was restarting with retro studios taking over on January 25th 2019.

13. Please keep this Colin guy off the show. “One quick movie thing” as if it was different then his five other movie things #filmscoop

14. Justin Davis talking about Factorio at 13:00 onwards gives me real Colin Robinson vibes.

15. Hell yeah, shout out to AMC A-list. Colin is a fellow subscriber.

16. About Fire Emblem Engage, preorders (at least in Japan) are way higher than they were for Three Houses

17. Sam forgot to mention that besides a vampire and a vampire hunter, you can also be a vampire hunter vampire in Castlevania.

18. I'll say it: "hello, listeners."
    Also, how does Sam find the time to work for IGN while filming all of those Liberty Mutual commercials with LiMu the emu? 😁

19. It's obviously Hogwarts: Legacy. Just like horizon: zero dawn

20. Glass Onion was awful

21. Bungie fixed that Destiny 2 Stadia Debacle btw

22. No one remembers Baulders Gate 3 releasing in August.

23. wait, better call saul is a breaking bad prequel? ive never watched either so this is interesting.

24. Knives Out movie spoilers in the episode totally unnecessary and without warning. Colin can go to hell. 😡

25. Spoiler warning

26. Little devil inside went dark, Hellblade 2 or what about Pragmata?

27. SCOOP-A-LOOP!

28. Sam needs a break from the show, he is starting to forget what words mean.

29. Why would you refuse to see Avatar 2? It's great.

30. A day early what a treat for the start of 2023! Happy Scoop Years, scoop!

31. Vampire Survivors is NOT on the Nintendo Switch! It should be though because it's perfect on Steamdeck.

32. I'm a former English teacher and found Daemon's question about the title "Hogwarts Legacy" an interesting grammatical study. As a title, it's grammatically correct because it's using "Hogwarts" as an adjective, not a possessive. What's missing is an article, "the." In a sentence, we have two options: "The Hogwarts Legacy lives on" or "Hogwarts' Legacy lives on." Titles are allowed though to break convention for the sake of style.

33. Regarding not being able to play ds games after the estore shuts down. Cough R4 cough.

34. *SPOILER*

    No post-credits scene this episode? Hope this was an accident and not indicative of GameScoop moving forward into 2023.

35. Can't wait for HOGWARTS!!!!

36. This pokemon stuff so tired 🤦🏽‍♂️

37. Gawd its been a dry year!! Movie Scoop?

38. Better call Saul spoilers!!

39. Sam thinks he can just farm and level up in Elden ring, and that will make the game easier. He's going to need some friends to tell him that that's not the case. You can farm runes to level up for days, but if you don't understand the mechanics of combat, you're going to keep making the same mistakes. Those "A-ha" moments come with continuing the game and struggling thru bosses and moving past enemies that are too difficult before returning back to them.

40. Fire Emblem is not bloated nor annualized….Not even close. It will be nearly 5 years since FE3H. Weird take.

41. 37:07 If they were planing to release a new system at the end of the year, they wouldn't release tears of the kingdom at June. They would release it at the end of the year along with the new system.

42. Thanks for the great content guys !

43. Hey now, no shame in that WoW playtime.

44. Happy New Scoop!
