Being there isn't that interesting compared to following it at home.

Oh, I thought you just meant the conference in general isn't that interesting.

 

[Hackbert]

do Sony usually live stream Gamescom conferences?

yeah, i remember the ps 3 Slim reveal live via stream. heres to hoping, i will be already home at that time..

 

[Hoo-doo]

It's a crowded show for sure, but well worth visiting for a day if you have the possibility.

 

[zeopower6]

do Sony usually live stream Gamescom conferences?

You can watch last year's recorded stream on the EU PS YouTube channel. Was about an hour. I remember it was rather nice.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

Gamescom is bigger in terms of attendance I think.

I can vouch for that.

 

[DPJ]

Last chance for any big western dev announcements before PS4 launch. Best make it count.

Also last chance for Vita to... well... last chance for Vita probably. If Vita doesn't at least make as good a showing as last year I'll be disappointed.

 

[zerodayPopbot]

Hopefully something PS4 from Media Molecule.

 

[Dead Prince]

Let's start the countdown again

 

[Bumhead]

Hopefully be able to pick up a Vita on the 21st then.

 

[El-Suave]

Last year's Gamescom conference was better than the E3 conference from that year. Many pleasant surprises and announcements. I hope they realise they've raised the bar for Gamescom and try to match it this year.

 

[Hoo-doo]

Hopefully something PS4 from Media Molecule.

Considering the amount of Sony studios that haven't made any announcements yet, I think one or two brand new game reveals are not out of the question.
Media Molecule is a solid possibility.

 

[ZeroFate]

So you want to sit in a huge aula on some folding chairs to see game trailers projected on a screen far away? It is easier to follow at home. The food was excellent though.


Being there isn't that interesting compared to following it at home.

I've never been to a gaming conference like that before so... yup. I'm sure it'd be a "one and done" thing though if it's really how you described.

 

[kenji_sama]

Last year, Gamescom was much better than E3. Hope they will reveal more games.

 

[Into]

Is there a chance we hear anything from Naughty Dog? Even a short teaser trailer for their first PS4 game? Would be perfect to ride the goodwill that Last of Us has created to really hype people up for 2014-2015

 

[Canis lupus]

Last year, Gamescom was much better than E3. Hope they will reveal more games.

This year is gonna be even better! _O_

 

[zeopower6]

This year is gonna be even better! _O_

Yeah, this could be their best Gamescom yet (only since 2009 but w/e) if they play their cards right.

 

[Bundy]

kudos to Bundy.

I'm gonna need a bigger tub for this bad boy.

Viewtiful Joe 3 PS4 exclusive believe!!

 

[Baldwin_the_First]

I'm just hoping for some news on Deep Down! Deliver Capcom!

 

[SmokyDave]

Vita's Last Stand.

They're going to shoot it in the head with an apathetic bullet, aren't they?

 

[Magic Mushroom]

VGA's would be my prediction. I'd love to see gameplay from The Order or the annoucement of Sony Santa Monica's new IP, but a game like Little Big Planet 3 is more likely. Still, you never know.

 

[Mokubba]

Finally, a conference fit for european time. I almost died twice at work after the Feb reveal and E3

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

Vita's Last Stand.

Vita's Last Stand is at TGS

 

[Sidewinder]

Since I read 2 comments from famousmortimer here on GAF the last 2 days regarding Sony's surprise on Gamescom I have really high hopes that Sony will announce oculus rift support for PS4. This would be so amazing.

Care to share a link?

 

[Acquiescence]

I'd scream for Gravity Rush 2 and The Last Guardian right now, but they'd seem more likely to appear at TGS if they were going to show at all. I just really hope Sony don't skimp on the Vita. It only got two new game announcements at Gamescom last year, but Tearaway and Killzone Mercenary both look exemplary and easily look to be among the best the system has to offer this year, so I'd like a repeat performance in that respect. Don't want it all to be solely about the PS4.

 

[NHale]

Also last chance for Vita to... well... last chance for Vita probably. If Vita doesn't at least make as good a showing as last year I'll be disappointed.

"We at Playstation will continue to show you, the gamer, our continued support of the Playstation Vita platform. Today I'm proud to announce that we are bringing another AAA experience to Playstation Vita this Fall. Here is the first glimpse of Killzone HD."

 

[Violater]

Yay! more videos of Knack!

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Ew, almost a month away.

Vita's Last Stand is at TGS

No, it's at Game Heaven 3.

 

[NHale]

No. VGAs 2013 at the earliest.

The most likely announcements are the Media Molecule PS4 game and LittleBigPlanet 3 that is being developed by Sumo Digital.

 

[stryke]

Heh, this was already stealth announced yesterday by CVG.

http://www.computerandvideogames.com/420904/ea-to-host-gamescom-press-conference/

EA will also hold a conference. Looks like Ubisoft is skipping this year, strange, considering they're a French publisher.

Has Nintendo said anything about doing a conference?

 

[kenji_sama]

Yeah, this could be their best Gamescom yet (only since 2009 but w/e) if they play their cards right.

Last Gamescom blew me away when they announced two SCEJ games, especially Puppeteer

 

[Denzar]

20th is day before conference starts officially
21st is the day for the press to roam on the showfloor comfortably
22-25th are public days, filled to the brink with sweaty fans

Holy f....

Glad I'm going the 21st! My gamescom cherry is about to be popped!

 

[shandy706]

GT6 PS4 edition and GT Vita Edition please!!!!

I want a Gran Tursimo portable (for my Vita) so bad.

My thoughts are with you during this troubled time.

Spoiler

I'm buying one next month...

 

[Alpende]

I hope they show some badass exclusives.

 

[Bundy]

It begins:

 

[DarkLordMalik]

Sony better not abandon the PS Vita.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Breaking Bad & Gamescom in August, it is going to be a good month

Also the Guilty Gear Xrd location test.

Best month.

Sony's gamescom surprise is going to be a bit more surprising. But this is a great move by MS. I was misinformed and thought the home unit was just going to be a debug unit... being an actual dev kit is awesome. It's obviously not going to be as powerful as the full fledged dev kit because you need overhead power... but for most indie games that's not an issue in the slightest.

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=68527416&postcount=76

Gamescom is going to be interesting.

now we're talking, that could be a terraton in the making, that'll do for now to hype me up

 

[Knuf]

Ew, almost a month away.


No, it's at Game Heaven 3.

Wait, there was a Game Heaven 2?

 

[Hoo-doo]

Oh god, oculus rift support would be a megaton.

I don't think it will ever happen though.

That's a lot of dude.


And all these Cerny gifs are killing me

 

[daveo42]

I hope we actually get a live stream. Knowing GAF, it'll be down within 5 minutes of the show starting and it's one of the only places I can go to get info at work.

Maybe there'll be a live blog somewhere I can follow.

 

[Zok310]

More man of steel gifs please.

Make it so.

Demonite, come forth. Give us gifs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
