Halo Wars 2 only big announcement for X1 at Gamescom, and it is on PC as well. Meanwhile Sony has three more conferences this year. looks like you had concern for the wrong console maker.

I doubt Sony will announce new AAA games at those conferences. The new games they announced at E3 still looked years away (besides Horizon).

I think God of War IV will be at PSX, and Quantic Dream at Paris. 

But we will have to wait and see.

GoW IV should be shown at E3 imo.

TLG, Horizon, Dreams and Rigs are all planned for 2016. The only 2017 and later games are Shenmue 3 (whose Kickstarter they wanted to announce there and you can hardly announce a Kickstarter years into a games development) and FF7 Remake (this is SE we're talking about, the king of early announcements).

There's definitely the possibility of AAA announcements in Paris, with GT7 yet unrevealed and set for release in 2016 and Quantic Dreams actually being located in Paris.

“With the changes this year of E3 taking place a week later and Gamescom taking place earlier, we feel that both PlayStation and the wider industry would benefit from a major news milestone later in the year, during the most important period for gaming."

Literally all you need to know about the reasoning has already been stated.
