[Spartan 117]

Not just 'kinda', it actually was.

Well there were some good stuff like a LOT of Indie games, Vita Price cut, RIME and Rapture so not all disappointing.

 

[zainzombie]

Atleast they gave a release date.

 

[Spartan 117]

What about Microsoft at Gamescom? What did they do or showed?

 

[Hassan Aftab]

I think a majority of us expected its release in November, so it isn't all that surprising. Indie games, well that's now that's not what most of us were squandering our time for, were we?

 

[Pseudonym]

That was a solid conference.

A decent show overall. Murasaki Baby (Vita) and RIME (PS4) stood out as the best new reveals.

Killzone Shadow Fall's MP trailer was short, but looked very interesting. A live gameplay demonstration would've been much better.

Unlike MS, Sony announced a release date for the PS4.

Was hoping they'd show a glimpse of Sony Santa Monica and Naughty Dog's next-gen games, but it was probably too soon. I'm guessing Spike TV and GameTrailers have already locked down ND's reveal for the VGAs.

 

[Soulhunter]

All the big guns still hidden inside Sony's Closet yet they absolutely thumped MS in terms of gaming content. Well they did mention ND, SSM and MM working on New IP's?
That could mean Bend Studio gets to make uncharted 4 on ps4

Uncharted 4 could end up being a Vita game.

 

[r3aper]

Uncharted 4 could end up being a Vita game.

Nah! Who does that to a good AAA title.

ND could have many teams we don't know of. I just don't see that happening to a name as big as Uncharted, this game might go on and on for a lot more years. Unless ND officially announce its retirement.

 

[BumperJumper]

Uncharted 4 could end up being a Vita game.

There won't be a 4 in the title but the next Uncharted is looking more like a PSV and then later PS3 effort to me just like on PSP

They actually showed a lot more games than Microsoft. There were tons of trailers after trailers.

And RIME is a first party title from SCE WWS.

 

[Chandoo]

Rime looks like a low budget PSN title, a poor man's Fable Legends if you will
