Microsoft’s Gamescom showing and presentation is just hours away, and so far, they have been doing a hell of a job hyping it up, which is great. The last time they hyped up a showing this much was E3 this year, and we all remember how well Microsoft’s press conference turned out then. So expectations are high from Microsoft’s showing this year (they kind of sat out Gamescom last year… or well, they didn’t participate in it in the same capacity that Sony did).
And Microsoft, for their part, are not backing down. Speaking on his Twitter and in his podcast, Microsoft’s Larry “Major Nelson” Hryb teased the show pretty hard: “Rehearsing for the Xbox briefing post show tomorrow. Some great stuff planned.”
It also appears that Microsoft’s showing won’t just stop at the presentation itself. They apparently have some great stuff planned for afterwards too.
“We’re working on a post show, and we’re basically talk about games and we’re gonna show you games, so we’ve lined up a great lineup of Xbox One games you’ll be playing this holidays, you’ll be able to see them played live, you’ll be able to ask questions of the devs.”
Sounds good to me!
Microsoft’s Gamescom presentation starts tomorrow, in a few hours. Stay tuned.
