That's an E3 announcement.

Really? Gamescom is the largest gaming show on earth.

 

[Leona Lewis]

Really? Gamescom is the largest gaming show on earth.

E3 gets more coverage, though. Plus it's a private event, so you can't compare it on size alone.

 

[DoubleTake]

Anyone know what time the MS conference is?

 

[sn00zer]

Funny thing is I dont really like the PS1 Jet Motos, well i did as a kid, but they do not hold up, but the concept is awesome and ripe for new tech

 

[Retronix]

Any chance of a ps3 price drop?, 250 for the 12gb version is insane.

 

[Kei-]

While that's true in terms of sheer size and attendance, it is not true in terms of announcements and importance to the industry. E3 is still the place for the biggest announcements.

This right here is the dream :'). Imagine a jet motorstorm but also mixed with racing Ina desert and jungle with gfx that rival those of e3 2005 motorstorm cg. Insanity. The crash bit, perfection. I would add one thing, when the camera pans into space you are in the middle of an epic space battle and colony wars is revealed.

Agreed. Evolution could definitely do it justice of course.

8:00 AM EDT / 5:00 AM PDT

 

[N.Domixis]

I am hoping they say the first to 10 million wins.

Every hardware iteration and price cut, and launch dates happened at Gamescom lately, and those are always big and important announcements for Sony.

 

[sn00zer]

Anyway, Im excited for Media Molecule's new game...really hoping its basically 3d LBP with more sculpture tools

 

[Phoenician_Viking]

TGS last year felt more like indigestion than dessert.

TGS last year was amazing.

And for some devs thats a negative, the 'biggest' announcements media-wise are invariably the new COD, Assassins Creed, Halo etc

New IP's and smaller devs tend to get lost in the noise

That's true, but he's talking about a Final Fantasy 7 remake. That's an E3 or TGS announcement, most likely E3 considering the way the console market is turning out in Japan, along with past Final Fantasy announcements.

 

[David___]

TGS last year was amazing.

Best thing last year was the translators.

 

[RedAssedApe]

i was annoyed i stayed up for that. although that sizzle reel at the end was hype.

 

[HORRORSHØW]

huh

 

[Jagxyz]

So are we expecting any new announcements / firmware updates or is it mainly just expanded looks into announced games?

A Final Fantasy 7 remake is not really an E3 announcement, E3 has turned into the one place where non-gamers tend to give quite a bit of focus to the gaming industry. And because of that we see mostly advertising for the mass market stuff; Watch Dogs, Destiny, COD, AC, Battlefield and so on. A FFVII remake could be an E3 announcement, but it could as well be a gamescom/TGS/something else announcement. The target audience will be reached regardless.

Anyone know of a good twitter to follow so I can get mobile notifications since I don't have data?

 

[Reveirg]

Do we know how long any of the briefings will be?

 

[Spongebob]

Man. I fear for the crow population.

The announcement of a FF VII Remake will be one of the greatest moments of my life.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

The announcement of a FF VII Remake will be one of the greatest moments of my life.

Especially when everyone finds out it is vita exclusive.

Yea. That part won't happen

 

[Solaire of Astora]

As much as I'd love a remake of FFVII, I just can't see it happening. Will gladly eat crow if it does, though.

[Jeseus]

[torontoml]

Just coming here with the same question, will they only be on Sony and MS sites?

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

People expecting Final Fantasy XV and The Last Guardian.......lol

TGS is more likely for those games.

 

[hwateber]

Haha, people should not be doing that to themselves.

 

[viveks86]

I'm guessing there will be a conference livestream here?

Hype train after every conference...

 

[AbandonedTrolley]

I'm assuming that the IGN Gamescom tile that has appeared on my PS4 will show the media briefing at 7pm tonight? If so, that means my evening it sorted.

You are not ready....bask in the hype

What movie is that? It seems really familiar.

[mid83]

I've never really followed Gamescom, but since I'm actually off today, I figured I'd watch both the MS and Sony press events.

Any history of big announcements at Gamescom or should we just expect to see more footage of previous announced games?

 

[Pachimari]

I hope to see Until Dawn, a Move game, some Drive Club social features and some The Phantom Pain.

There were quite a few announcements last year. Both Sony and MS seem to be taking Gamescom very seriously this year so it may be bigger than years past.

Thanks!

 

[Dragon]

There's actually a well known NES game based on the movie if you get interested in it. I always loved the music as a kid.

Awesome! Hopefully we'll see some cool stuff today.

Any other press conferences besides Sony and MS?
