Though much of the video game industry will be focused on Sony and Microsoft’s new titles and console release dates, indie games will be the true major gaming feature at Gamescom 2013. In this year’s Cologne-based trade fair, the focus is set on small scale with the “Indie MEGABOOTH”.
"Think of the last E3, or the last Gamescom, or the last Tokyo Game Show. What was the main thing shown at the press conferences held there? The trailers, gameplay videos, and everything else shown are done so to get you excited about a certain game that they want you to be more interested in. If the trailer is well-done and people like it, the hype of the game goes up and people talk about it more and more. But what happens next? More trailers and details for the game are released, just hyping you up more until the game comes out. But sometimes, when the game comes out, it’s not everything you expected. It’s not as fantastic as you had hoped. It’s not all that it’s hyped up to be. "
it leaves you very dissapionted like when they promised big vita news for e3, gamescom and tokyo game show when turned out to be just ps4. there were hardly any vita news just ports and indies , japan always have better games t hen the us, there vita library doubles ours we have to hope for a localization announcement to get some decent games.

David Rodriguez writes, "The dust from Gamescom 2013 is still settling, and PAX Prime 2013 is just on the horizon. Before we get bombarded by the news that that show may bring, we let Giuseppe fill us in on his personal experience at this year’s show (9:49), as well as delving into Joel’s recent admission that Sony proved him wrong with the Vita (46:36), and the recent Grand Theft Auto V leak (1:00:20)."
I'm very excited to see some of this years indie titles who knows what this years diamond in the rough might be.
Nice, Indie Games are "meh" to me though. Maybe 1 in 1000 are amazing.
I love the last bit of that post
