playable xbox one X! oh, this will be a good time with a lot of impressions i hope!
They've been implying it repeatedly, but it's also Microsoft, so you never know.
...In Germany?

Awesome! Really excited to see some hands-on impressions of the Xbox One X. I'm kind of hoping that around then will be when we finally get pre-orders as well. I wanna get one locked down so I can at least know I'm guaranteed one if I decide to buy this year.
Strangely, I'm really interested in seeing more of Super Lucky's Tale. I wonder if they'll have a different demo.

That's what I wanna see as well. They probably have some new areas to show since the game is launching just a few months after Gamescom.

Doesn't seem like it. But it looks like we'll get some announcements at that live show.
I've said before that I can really start taking their direction in the PC space seriously if they started reviving their PC ip's. A new Age of Empires would do just that.

Sounds more like an extended Daily Show kinda thing, maybe?
Fair enough.
Yeah. But that doesn't mean they can't show new stuff. Although I'm guessing crackdown stuff will be shown at comic con coming up

I don't know, is AoE big over there? I'm completely ignorant to it. Just figured Crackdown 3 is out kinda soon, so, I was surprised it wasn't even mentioned.

Instead of AoE4, I'd rather have AoE2 remake that, either, has cross play with the HD version or it's given to AoE2 HD owners at a upgrade price. The remake should have all the features needed for a esport title.
An AoE4 would divide the community and will likely have a hard time living up to AoE2.

Hopefully we get MP shown for CD3.
IIRC crackdown never officially released in germany while AoE is... well AoE.
Afaik Cd 1 and 2 were never released over here and ger should still have a large pc (typical pc games) fanbase.

And AoE4.
MS can win gamescom easy.
no one else is going to bother to show up to gamescom...

Not hard to win if you are the only one.

you are being sarcastic, right? Because if not, I'll remind you Gamescom is the biggest gaming event in the world in terms of attendance. There is plenty of reasons for everyone to show up to Gamescom...

"winning" a conference is a stupid concept.
"winning gamescom" is even more stupid.
It's a show for consumers.

Age of Empires 2 HD has sold 4.3 million copies on Steam, and Germany is the game's second biggest market (after the US) at 9.46% of all owners globally.
400,000 might not sound like a lot on paper, but keep in mind Germany's 81 million people to the US's 321 million, so it's more like a game that moved 1.6 million in the US in terms of relevance, which not a lot of games do.
Or, to put this another way, it's selling around what games like Battlefield 4's first five months or Horizon were moving in the country.
It's probably also worth noting that the first Crackdown was refused classification in Germany.

Or you're putting words in his mouth, and people who talk about Sony/MS/Nintendo "winning" a conference always mean the same thing.
So yea, Oti was right. It's a stupid concept.
Sony
Nintendo
He's being sarcastic.

In all media, only true fans who consume every book, film, game, or pog collection deserve to know what's going on.

Red Faction was doing that last gen!!!
Look at this garden shed exploding
That Crackdown 3 building is literally "exploding" for no reason. Not realistic at all. Pretty sad that this is the best they could come up with. Am I supposed to believe that the whole skyscraper is full of gas lines? Where are those extra explosions coming from?
Maybe it was a tower block with several samsung concessions inside it?

Pretty sure it was a demo to show building destruction, hence extra explosions to show off
A silly parody of Godzilla in multiplayer + split screen announcement would make the x an instant buy for me. It be soooooo much fun lol.I know it's slightly off-topic, but I would love to see one of those SNK King of the Monsters or Rampage games in a wold like this.
Would be an epic visual. GODZILLA!!!
