And Xbox's BIG Summer Showcase Game Is... | Defining Duke, Episode 223

Following the delay of Fable, it was a coin toss on who would get the nod to follow up Xbox's 2025 summer showcase with a Developer Direct of their own. Now, we have the answer. No, it's not Gears Of War: E-Day and no it's not Halo. It's The Outer Worlds 2! Combined with this reveal, IGN posted over 10 minutes of Outer Worlds 2 gameplay! While it pops the bubble ahead of its full inflation, the Dukes were excited to lay eyes on the game following its December reveal. What has changed? What has improved? Also, what else will we see at this summer's showcase? We're full of guesses, so let's get to speculating!

Lol. Nice to be back in the realm of the DUKES!

Hey, we need to stop sharing the playtime of games. I literally don't buy the game when that info is shared. 2nd or 3rd time Matty has done it on this channel. If thats what new school gamers like to hear - well I'll clarify that's a spoiler. Why do companies even share that info is beyond me. Kids dont even get 2 hours into a game and they drop it. So its not a selling point... We can share the analytic that a few companies lost my sale when this info is not shared. Matty show is banned once again from my viewing for a few months. Take care.

Why is the estimated play time a spoiler? Do you not watch new movies on any streaming service because they show the run time? I feel like this is a reaction to people complaining when a game was shorter than they expected, and unfortunately that group is loud and annoying.

Gaming and tv/movies not the same comparison...

The thumbnail omg 😂

What part of the experience is ruined for you when you know a game's play time then? I would just think it'd be you'd know when the story is going to conclude but maybe I'm missing something. I think knowing that is similar to a movie/TV/book. Those do have more uniform "run times" I guess so there's less mystery...

Damn... Not sure what Defining Duke is going to do without your view for the next few months. How will they survive?

🤣 perfect illustration of all the talk from Colin lately about how people will complain no matter what LSM does. First time I have ever seen someone upset about the length of a game being spoiled. “Wild.”

Matty in the Sly Cooper Hot Topic shirt I also just copped, peak drip

Why do remastered editions of video games get so much more criticism than remastered editions of movies? When The Lord of the Rings Trilogy got remastered in 4K and the price for the set was $100, I didn’t see the entire film community in outrage. It should be understood that these remasters are for die hard fans, and also new gamers.

This is a good point. I will say, the cinema heads who know better do complain, but at the same time, most of them “need” it in their collection for some reason lol.

Troy C

Also, I should say, I was referring to movie releases that are not with the price. LOTR is a good price for all 3 if you’re into them.

Spring is on its way, I'm on vacation and the Dukes are up! YASS!!!

Man, job interviews can be terrible when you are at a mindset of desperation (related to a viewer question). Remind yourself that you deserve this opportunity and, although they are in power to hire you, you are there because of what YOU have to offer. Be humble, for sure, but do NOT shorten your worth. ❤️ & ✊ … also, with Matty wearing some Sly on an Xbox podcast, I gotta ask… you think it’ll make it’s way to Switch 2, as a collection? 🤔 We’ve already seen Patapon announced so, as far as I am concerned, the lane is free for speculation. 😆

OMG, I cannot fathom that we are back at this conversation - GAMES DON'T NEED TO PROVE THEY ARE WORTH $80! Just like bread in your bakery does not need to prove it is now 4x the price you paid when you were a kid. The price increase is an economy topic, not content topic. If games needed to provide more to charge more, we will be at ground zero. The same things were happening when Rift Apart launched at 70. God-damn. Again, Colin on recent SS nailed it, or rather the listener write-in was SPOT ON. You guys should be informed. You should be able to read the industry. Explain why is this happening, what it means and what would be the outcomes if we continued to deny it that gaming was extremely cheap entertainment for years. Not cater to the crying audience. But I guess it gets you into console previews, so at least that.
