GamesCom 2009: Sony Woohoooo, Microsoft Boohoooo

Yes indeed. Xboxkings can’t make anything else from what the company’s both showed in their conferences. Sony’s conference at GamesCom in Cologne just was a big blowout of several new services on the PSP and PS3, although totally different from this years E3 conference, it showed confidence and they showed they’re ready to compete. Microsoft on the other hand let Lionhead do the talking, ofcourse in Peter Molyneux’s person, and the only thing showed in their conference of 10.00 o’clock this morning –where Xboxkings was waiting for some exciting news to emerge- was Fable III.

Fable III is a great announcement. But also one that didn’t surprise everyone. Every important IP on a console gets another part, and in 99% of all those games, they start with the next installment as soon as the last one is done. We all know Killzone 3 is made at the moment (release in 2011 is our guess), just as Gears of War III is (Christmas 2010 for sure), like Resistance 3 probably is (2010 release also) etc. etc. Not as likely as a new COD every year, but you got it I guess. So Fable III. Right. And? Wut? Nothing else? Conference is over? Really? You’re joking now, right? No?
