GamesCom is less than a week away now, meaning that the folks over at Sony are packing their bags and panicking over their passports as we type. This year’s show promises to be a big one, with the platform holder teasing tons of information regarding announced and unannounced titles. “Suffice to say, you won’t want to miss it,” teased Fred Dutton on the PlayStation Blog.
The press conference – which is set to take place on 20th August – will be live streamed from 18:00PM BST (10:00AM PST / 13:00PM EST) on the PlayStation Blog, PlayStation Home, and – fingers crossed – Push Square. We haven’t actually got official confirmation from Sony just yet, but we’d be very, very surprised if we didn’t get the nod. Assuming that all goes to plan, you can expect live text, chat, and all of the other bells and whistles.
And, of course, we’ll have round-the-clock coverage and commentary on all of the big announcements. The manufacturer’s keeping its reveals close to its chest, but you should expect to see the first footage of Housemarque’s inaugural PlayStation 4 title, as well as new details on DriveClub and Killzone: Shadow Fall.
Is there anything in particular that you’re itching to see at this year’s show? As always, let us know in the comments section below.

I hope they dont show much of already announced PS4 games. Me wants moar new stuff!
PS4 release date!!!!!...please
If Push Square gets the stream, I'm watching it here!
@SuperSilverback I expect them to spend a chunk of time on Killzone: Shadow Fall's multiplayer. That's going to be one of the big reveals.
A couple more PS4 exclusive reveals would go a long way. I hope they announce some awesome stuff and steal the spotlight back, very excited for next week.
I expect Naughty dog's PS4 project to be revealed (probably Uncharted 4). I'm hoping they reveal a new T rated IP as well, which is quite possible. Give me both of these things, and my hype will be through the roof.
I hope they announce something LittleBigPlanet related
I want the release date of the ps4. Gameplay of the order 1886. An update on games that have been announced like knack, killzone, and driveclub. New game reveals for the ps4 and vita. I want Sony to give an update on spectator mode and controlling your friends game through gaikai. I don't want much I know.
I really want some new Freedom Wars info or gameplay footage. I'd also really want to see some Shadow Fall multiplayer, what Santa Monica is working on, Media Molecules project, Guerrilla's secret project, Sony Bend's project and The Order: 1886 gameplay.
@Jaz007 From what I hear, ND will be revealing Uncharted 4 at the VGA's.
@get2sammyb Maybe you'll get hyped about more than DriveClub's lighting after reading this: http://www.theguardian.com/technology/gamesblog/2013/aug/02/driveclub-ps4-social-gaming-playstation
How about some new vita stuff.
Ps4 NEW exclusives. Otherwise Ms kills them with the many exclusives.
hopefully ps4 focus and some games for vita.
@Sanquine Patience, patience. Compare this year's PS3 lineup to the Xbox 360's, and then tell me that Microsoft will "kill" Sony over the course of the generation...
Microsoft pretty much unloaded everything it had at E3. Sony's taking a more cautious approach, I feel.
ND ps4 game and vita games...
Show me new MGS stuff!
@get2sammyb you're right. Ms just announced the launch dates. In the Netherlands we get the xbox one in 2014 . Asian market not even mentioned. Playstation will dominate agian
Some new IPs or at least stuff they have not showed yet... They need to show the games. A Vita/PS4 bundle would be epic! A Vita price drop is definitely in order and of course.... PS4s release date 21st-29th of OCT!
Please more PS4 exclusives! And maybe some Vita must have exclusives too!
God i am excited for it -
@Sanquine Sammy's right, Microsoft emptied their clip at E3 in an attempt to get people's minds off of all that DRM nonsense. Meanwhile, Sony still has tons of ammo. Media Molecule, Guerrilla, Naughty Dog, Santa Monica, London Studio, Quantic Dream and Ready at Dawn are still waiting to unveil or fully unveil what they're working on.
Remember when Sony said it would be all about Vita? And then they said it'd be all about PS4? I hope they give the Vita the attention they promised. That's all I want.
PSVITA PRICE DROP PSVITA PRICE DROP PSVITA PRICE DROP.
crosses fingers
Sony cannot just roll out more DriveClub, Killzone and Infamous this time. We have all already seem them several times. They need new game announcements. Sony have declared that there are 100+ titles in development scheduled for the first year of launch (obviously including indies). They need to show/reveal to us another 5 big name games as well as some indies. more content is needed.
Plus I would love to see the user interface properly.
Stupid question - will the stream be in German since the event is in Germany?
There is no such thing as 1800PM or 1300PM, its either 1800 hrs or 6PM, 1300 hrs or 1PM.
Excited for this, i dont think sony is going to disappoint. Also I presume Nintendo is making an appearance as well right?
@Sanquine - Nice new profile pic. From the greek vacation Im guessing? I spent 4 days at Busch Gardens Williamsburgh w/ the kids. Thats where you vacation after you have kids.
Please! Show Us Uncharted 4, Last Guardian, GOW and a New IP.
Some big PS4 exclusives need to be shown, even if they're a ways off. It wouldn't hurt to lock up a big one from a top third party as well. The ship has already sailed as far as Vita is concerned and frankly, even if that wasn't the case, the PS4 has to have the spotlight.
Well i think we would see until dawn re-reveal, last I heard they said it was not cancelled. Not sure my google-fu is failing me to find any new info on it.
Unzip that jacket with move controller.......yes please! PS4 camera justifide
Some new exclusives/games for PS4, please...and a release date.
