Forums - Sony - Sony: 'Gamescom Is Going To Be A PS Vita Show'

Rey Gutierrez, Video Director for Sony, was talking to HipHopGamer when he mentioned Sony's plans for Gamescom:

"It's all about momentum. It's about showcasing PS4 in all its glorified beauty and it's not just the console. It's about the titles, it's about the games, it's about the independent titles. It's also about PS3, it's also about PS Vita. We blew it out of the park this E3 with PlayStation 4 but PS Vita has so much more to go, we've got so much more love to show at the showcase and I can safely say Gamescom is definitely going to be a PS Vita show, so you'll see."

Actions speak louder than words Sony. Hope you'll deliver.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

There will hopefully be a lot of vita stuff, but I highly doubt it will be that big of a focus. PS4 will and should get the most time, IMO.



I have trust in Sony. However if this event is a let down for the Vita, then I think that it is for the Vita. I hope that doesn't happen though, I love my Vita!



 

Gamescom is doomed confirmed?

Shut your face! Vita will play all my PS4 games while I'm at work. Like it should be! Then I'll be a jobless bum like you.

So they're going to announce a price drop of the Vita? Doesn't matter how many games they announce when it doesn't have a price that people are interested in.

*edit*

How many times do you see or hear people say they're interested in the Vita but it's too expensive?  I hear it all the time.  While I agree that a $50 price drop will make it more appealing, their logic on not purchasing the system even though they're interested in it is pretty stupid.  That $50 that they save could be gained in many different ways.  Eat out at restaurants less.  Skipping two or three meals at a restaurant and eating at home instead will save you $50 right there.  Skip bringing your family to the movie theater and rent the movie once it comes out on disc.  Movies go from the theater to retail much faster than ever before.  Work at most a little more than half a day of overtime.  Even if you make minimum wage, working five hours of overtime will get you an extra $50.

People say video games and video game consoles are one of the most expensive form of entertainment?  I disagree.  Eating out, going to movies, going out drinking, etc, all add up to way higher expenses than a video game here and there.  With a video game you're also getting more time out of it and if you sell it, especially if it's buyer to seller, like Ebay or Craigslist, you can get a large portion of your money back once done.

Price drop on system AND memory cards. Obscene what they charge for those things. $100 for a 32gb?  Should be $20-40 range.

Then why is Sony calling it a PS Vita show?
