"Europe's biggest gameshow is a beast. Spanning the halls of Cologne Messe, and with E3 now out of the picture, Gamescom is a bigger deal than ever. The show also attracts thousands of public attendees, which gives the show a fairground twist in places. This year, Netflix dominated one of the halls with a faux One Piece ship, sports stadium, a Wednesday-themed cafe and a Stranger Things ice cream stall."
"I'll admit, Snake Eater was when I fell off the Metal Gear Solid train (or nuclear mech), and it came undone by the camouflage system and the difficult-to-navigate early areas. A very tight demo, as the Gamescom crowds rushed to early demos meant I didn't get a chance to fully test the new style control system that (thankfully) shifts crouch and action/ confirm to separate buttons and adds a degree of camera control even in third-person."
Gamescom occupied the halls of Cologne Messe and drew thousands of public attendees, creating a fairground-like atmosphere with large branded installations. Netflix staged immersive attractions including a faux One Piece ship, a sports stadium, a Wednesday-themed cafe and a Stranger Things ice cream stall. Nintendo provided numerous Switch 2 units for hands-on play, including Silksong. Microsoft announced an October 16 launch date for the Xbox Ally handheld gaming PCs but did not reveal pricing. Konami remastered Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater with upgraded graphics and control quality-of-life changes, though crowded demos limited extended testing.
