Sony's Got Some Good Stuff Lined Up for Gamescom 2015

Push Square: "It's a bit of a weird week here at Push Square Towers to be honest. We're on red alert ahead of Gamescom 2015, but with the curtain literally just closing on E3 2015, we're not quite sure how busy we're going to be. Furthering our uncertainty is the fact that Sony's delayed its annual European press conference until October, where it'll be held during Paris Games Week instead."

Finally an article that's gets it. Sony will still have a presence despite no conference and 3rd party's will still have PS4 content at Gamescom.

Everyone has been blowing everything out of proportion. Nobody even comments on Nintendo and Wii U's complete absence at the event.

Nintendo's complete absent is usual and the vast majority are no longer interested in even hearing what Nintendo has to show right now. E3 was terrible for Nintendo.

"Sony will still have a presence despite no conference and 3rd party's will still have PS4 content at Gamescom."

That is fine, but Sony isn't there to announce anything new. We will have to wait for that, and unfortunately I think anything Sony announces moving forward is likely to be far into the future considering E3 was about 2-3 years forward with FF VII remake and Shenmue 3.

I did get excited about Horizon being a 2016 title though so we will see.

Really looking forward to seeing what Horizons is about. I'm hoping to get a lot of info for that game.

AngelicIceDiamond3188d ago

I really wanna see more of Horizon as well. Games beautiful on top of great looking gameplay.

Ha, Fred responded to my comment and that is the basis for the article.

Leading up to this week a lot of articles and by looks of it a few people here on N4G + other places are spotlighting Microsoft's press conferenc as if it will/could be the event that changes everything with our console popularity war. But it would be kinda funny if Sony was to somehow have more talked about news without even having a press conference.

Price drop. Fans go wild (despite having no need to buy another console).

Though October sounds like a pretty good time for a price drop too. Hmm.

No Man's Sky is out now, during the week of Gamescom. That would guarantee a Sony win w/o even having to hold a conference. Happened with P.T. last year, so I could definitely see them keeping that trend alive...if not NMS then possibly Rime or one of the other nebulous "2015" releases.

AudioEppa3188d ago

I didn't like how you started... but I love how you ended

I really wanna play Rime

isarai3188d ago

I think the RIME version is actually very likely, They've already said the game is pretty much done but sony has "a master plan" which is why they haven't talked about a release date. also seeing their proximity to the event also increases its likelihood

Hue - gamescom Preview | GameGrin

GG:
The indie gaming scene is thriving. During the past few years it has been made easier for aspiring developers to create and release smaller, but nonetheless fantastic titles. The PS4 and Xbox One are home to a large number of indie titles, and even Nintendo, whose policy towards smaller games was awkward and intimidating, has made great strides to improve upon its relationship between them.

HITMAN at Gamescom 2015

Square enix:
What a ride we have been on! GDC Europe kicked off the week for us and we had two great talks at the developer event. Both focused on technology (one on sound, the other on tools and sandbox design) and the way we’re making HITMAN a new and interesting title.

And then we drove straight into the, let’s face it, pretty mind-blowing world of Gamescom where hundreds of thousands of eager game fans migrate to every year.
