Poll Are you HYPE for Microsofts Gamescom conference? (98 votes)

Yes 44%
no 33%
Skeptical 11%
Maybe 12%

Microsofts Gamescom conference starts in only 2 days,

We are expecting to see a couple 2015 games, along with games show at E3 for a bit, then the main show showing off crackdown, Scalebound, Quantum Break, and other goodies and unannounced titles.

Maybe even a price cut/bundle/other revision.

So far MS has been on a role, having a couple AAA games, along with their big 4 all in the next 4-5 months. Now they will continue down this road with gamescom.

My life got a lot easier when I learned to stop getting HYPED for any conferences.

I don't get excited for free shows like E3 or any lesser shows (Gamescom, TGS, etc) as I've said for years.

If something cool happens at these free shows, bonus. If the show sucks, I wasn't too emotionally invested either way.

I am interested in Scalebound for instance, but I'm more excited for the game to release due to enjoying and owning all of Kamiya's games. I was set to buy it the day it announced. The show having it there or not simply will remind me the game is not done and I can't own it yet.

Music Concerts and select Movies on the other hand, I pay for those, and reserve the right to get HYPED.

Not really. Because while I'm sure Scalebound will have my interest, I'm sure that any new announcement won't have gameplay shown, and I think that any video game announced or presented or teased without gameplay is fucking lame.

Otherwise
-Quantom Break: Everytime I'm shown gameplay I'm not all that into how it plays, it kind of looks way too easy to break, but it's Remedy and I like Max Payne 1 and 2, and to a much lesser extent Alan Wake. Their presentation is usually legit, and Alan Wake at worst was average in the gameplay, and I'd lean towards it was pretty okay, plus at this point you have my money if you make a new ip. I want new things.

-Crackdown 3: I think a true sequel to the original Crackdown has a TON of fucking potential, because the things Crackdown had going for it would be shit that would make the scripted, hand holding, guide you by the finger, look at our cutscenes nature of all these open world games (even Rockstar) look straight up pedestrian. The problem was that Crackdown was a bit half baked, and Crackdown 2 was worse. But I am cautiously optimistic about seeing gameplay here.

-Below: I like capybara games. Super Time Force is a good action/puzzle thing, and I find Superbrothers to at least be interesting if a bit unsatisfying on an interactive level. And it does look like a cool spin on rogue like gameplay, so yeah. Problem? I've sort of seen it enough times so kind of losing some appeal, I just want it out already.

-Cuphead: They could show me the same exact footage and I will give no fucks because that game looks cool as shit #MaximumIntegrity.

-Inside: This is the game by the Limbo guys, and sort of vanished, so I imagine this might be a spot for it. I'm not super high on Limbo (I think it's okay), but I am interested at least.

After that Microsoft's announcements are mostly unknowns, and if they show gameplay? Great, if not, I don't fucking care. Maybe it'll be interesting in a "wow that's a cool partnership with a lot of potential" sort of way, kind of like Recore, but I want to be shown an actual game above anything else.

So I'm not hyped, interested sure, it's a major press conference from one of the big 3, and I own an Xbox One and would like it to get games that I want to play, but I'm not exactly excited.

I'd like to see them try and explain the game play mechanics in QB, where you can stop time, and then slow it down further to move around, seems rather silly.

I'm very excited for it. I can't wait to actually see Scalebound. Wanted to know for the longest what type of game this will turn out to be. Intrigued by Crackdown to see what they do with the series and I'm looking forward to having an actually release date for Quantum Break. Also want to see if they have any other surprises in store.

"Hype" is a noun. "Hyped" is an adjective. "TigerSuperman" is a half-wit.

Shut up and go away child.

And miss another Tiger meltdown? No thanks.
