Hey there,

Maybe it's been said already but is there a link somewhere that recap all of Sony's reveals during Gamescom ? I'm just trying to gauge my expectations for tomorrow and base it on something real.

I can't remember who did it, but someone posted a great re-cap of the last 2 years earlier in the thread. Here's what I gathered from this year's Gamescom so far (Housemarque is now confirmed based on the teaser from today).
Some expectations are reducing to nothing new being shown? What's going on lol.

Here's a recap all of the pre-GC news.
---------------------------
Rime will show gameplay footage or be playable at the event.
Housemarque's new game might be there.
30 minute closed doors demo for an unannounced Japanese game and 45 minute demo for an unannounced IP.
Detail about the JP game

Until Dawn
Media Molecule's new IP is expected by almost everyone now. That could be the 45 demo? Maybe.

When do you guys think we'll hear about the game Ono is working on (it's not Deep Down)? I guess TGS makes sense. This is probably unannounced game that I'm interested in the most due to the high chance of it being a fighting or action game.

This post has a good recap. Plus the PS3 slim and price cut were also announced at Gamescom. Sony care about this show.
Will this be at GC?
Huh, Until Dawn's new title?
 
the one thing I am grateful to MS is snatching away Fifa and Ubi games from Sony conferences

it means Sony can focus on other things more


I am a terrible person
 
I wonder if we get to see Planetside....

SOE Live is on the 14th

we might get it in a sizzle real and have demo stations available to the public but I am guessing that a majority of PS2 news will be at SOE LIVE then Gamescom

Also
Planetside 2 was 'up' in the US PSN store today for a short period of time...

Far cry 4 will be at Playstation then.

MS will have AC

I'm fine with that. Enjoyed Far Cry 3 way more than AC4 (which is still a great Game) and AC2 :p
I am also kinda glad that they are showing the new Dead Island Trailer now, same with the Hungry Horde Reveal, this (i hope) means they have time to show other things at the PC. Can't wait to see what Sony will show off tomorrow.

The bad thing is that it seems Sony has BF back on their plate. I kinda wish MS would keep that too.

What the hell Sony?!?! You should have issued a "BF: Hardline is a bad value for Playstation owners so we are not allowing its release on our platform."

Now that I think about it, it would be kinda awesome if Sony saved us from more EA products, especially when its a game that looks like a fan mod.

Interesting, wonder if we might get a release announcement..?

First I've heard of A Million Ways To Die, Rime confirmed(?) to be there and confirmation that we will get gameplay from Bloodborne rather then another CG trailer is great.

I like Gamescom for these reasons, it might not be the unveiling stage that E3 traditionally is but usually what gets unveiled at E3 gets fleshed out in terms of footage/info at Gamescom which I appreciate. :)

I sure hope this is the one conference where they stop cutting the direct feed to show a slow pan of the room. Last years Gamescom was the worst.
 
There are some Sony employees starting to say things now (on Twitter). So there's going to be a few game announcements, at least. Whether they're all big or small remains to be seen.

Certainly will be a indie presence though.
