Will there be a live stream for the conferences? Also will Kingdoms of Amalur be shown?

Ingenemployee

the Official Livestream can be found here and there's no news of Kingdoms of Amalur making an appearance at this years Gamescom.

Thanks for the link. I checked the KoA forums and it looks like 38 studios will be at Gamescom.

hmm..I don't see anything about KoA in Gamescom 2011 on the internet. Since I can't find a direct link, I'll put it in the list, but not as a confirmed game. If you'd like; send me the link to the thread you saw that information in, and I'll make it confirmed :)

i wanna see some more prey 2 footage, this game is criminally underhyped.

I love the futuristic assassin idea, but to be honest we haven't seen much to be hyped about. Hopefully some Gamescom gameplay will get the hype train going.

the footage at E3 was enough to get me hyped to high heavens. this game looks to blow its predecessor out the water.

None of those. I'm looking forward to TotalBiscuit's coverage of PC games. :D

Maybe we'll see some sweet Assassain's Creed Revelations gameplay?

Thanks :) it's good enough, I'll add it as a confirmed game.

That or a new trailer, its confirmed to be shown at Gamescom so we'll at least see something. I hope they take a long break from the Assassin's Creed series after Revelations, and hopefully spend a lot of time on Assassin's Creed 3 and making it an amazing end to the series (assuming that AC3 is the last Assassin's Creed title to come out that has to do with the main storyline).

DONTNOD's PS3 exclusive RPG should be there too.

http://n4g.com/news/824258/dontnod-entertainment-confirms-textually-adrifts-reveal-at-gamescom/com

hoping to see a syndicate reboot reveal :P maybe some more xcom info that might persuade me into thinking it could be good.

Hopefully some Kinect games, sheesh, it's been a long drought when it comes to those. :twisted: :P

Seriously though would like to see Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor already. :?

Guild Wars 2 and Battlefield 3 are pretty much all I care about right now from GDC.Can't wait for info on either game.

I want to be surprised.So far everything is pretty much well known at this point.

Almost done packing. Got plane tomorror afternoon. I'm scheudled for 12 presentations, it will be a hell to write the previews this fast, but at the same time propably insanely fun too :) I just hope I will be able to scrap out some time for myself, not just go to what my editor set up for me.

Sony is streaming their press conference live on playstation home if anyone is wondering.

-BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

When the crowd said when Bethesda said it was being shown on the 360.

[QUOTE="Cherokee_Jack"][QUOTE="heretrix"]Did you see the 1 hour demo at Quakecon? If you can get past the idiots hooping an hollerin' every two seconds, it looked pretty awesome.

PC dominates in gamescom CS Global Offensive will pwned BF3 :PJohn_Read

I'm interested to see if Hard Reset will be there. The only PC stuff that has been announced is a bunch of MMO and multiplayer crap that we don't need.

I don't have much interest in Gamescom right now. Every big game listed was announced prior.

I would obviously be interested if a major new game gets announced.
