Forums - Sony - Would Sony do a Beyoncé at Gamescom?

Microsoft E3 2014:
Phantom Dust (Rip)
Scalebound
Crackdown
.... 

Sony will be at Paris game week and TGS. That is the reality.

Also with Gamescon schedule changes, it's way to close to E3 this year. Which is silly.

2015 E3 Attendance..  50k (had better attendence in early 2000s)..   2014 GamesCom 350k (increased every year since began in 2009)..        Gamescom is the bigger show by a long shot.  Especially for the reast of the world besides USA..  E3 was a week later the past 2 years then it has been.. and Gamescom is about a week earlier then the last two years..   10 days.. really doesnt make a difference..    But TGS and PGW both see a slightly lower attendance then GamesCom..  Actually.. GamesCom beats it by over 50k.. which is more then attend E3..     I know attendence isn't the BE ALL end ALL..  But buy most metrics GamesCom is now considered the biggest international gaming show..  

Point.. GamesCom doesn't need to worry about when it is..  E3 does.. lol

Really? We're talking AGAIN about the "Sony haz no excluzives in 2015"?
Please read any thread of June, everything has been said about it. Verdict is : wrong statement, and even if it was just a bit true (which it isn't), it wouldn't matter. CoD and Battlefront bundles alone could sell more than the "great MS exclusives".
Microsoft will maybe be alone for Gamescom in a market where they are already dead (and it's wrong, Sony will be there), but Sony will be alone for PGW, TGS and PSX, all at a better time than the Gamescom.

Wow..     You went from saying.. It'not ture at all..  To saying its true..  to then bringing up multi-plats..        You do see how that doesn't make sense right..  

GameScom is a bigger and more attended show then PGW (also more widely reported on)..  TGS(also less attended then GamesCom) is mostly for japanaese market.. where consoles arent doing well by anyone..    GamesCom is really the biggest event this year after E3..  Time has nothing to do with any of it..       Since sony doesn't have anything more to announce that really matters for 2015..    not surprising..     They are getting a heavy push from multi-plats as you said..   So they can focusing on giving reasons for gamers to buy their console this holiday because of everything that is coming early 2016..  

Again, when in the world have Gamescom or E3 been for announcements of games coming out in a given year?

Also stop this bullcrap about "uuh but Gamescom is bigger", because that is entirely irrelevant, Sony pulls in crowds when they are holding a press conference, doesn't matter when that is.



Actually I applaud Sony for not making conference at Gamescom. They're giving a huge opportunity to MS to shine in Europe. Phil Spencer also said that they need to focus more on European market so this is it......now's their chance!

PS: I still hoping that Sony would make another SCEJA conference this year....one can dream

Sorry, I'm not an english speaker, so maybe you didn't understand what I wrote.... "If it was true, it wouldn't matter because multiplat. It's not true though..." Is it clear now? Your whole point is wrong and useless in the argument.

Maybe Gamescom is bigger, but I know a lot of people will be in vacation during Gamescom (first weeks of August), so who cares? 

MS doesn't exist in Europe, that's a fact. They could have nude dancers on stage, nobody would care anyway. PGW and TGS (and PSX?) will have a bigger impact for Sony than Gamescom for MS.

Gamescom is he second largest show in the biz. Third party will do the work for Sony in Japan as they always have and let's face TGS isn't as big as it once was. Perhaps next year they will show up.

Sony had nothing for 2015 so they spilled the beans on their 2016-2017 schedule at E3. Microsoft is the only one with anything to show at Gamescom. Scalebound and Quantum Break gameplay here we come!

And I suppose that Sony is also going to talk about nothing at TGS, PGW and PSX?


I never said that they  weren't  going to say anything at tgs. Of all of the companies  sony needs to speak at tgs because they make so many deals with Japanese third party.

they don't have a show/presentation at Gamescom, just on the floor with games to play.


So they do a Nintendo.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

The only thing that will actually do well from Microsoft this year is Halo 5. That's it.
