Gamescom kicks off this week in Cologne

Gamescom kicks off this week in Cologne, Germany. As with other summer conventions, lots of new things should be coming out of the show. We’ve got a few thoughts about things we hope to hear more about over the course of the week. Read on!
Here in the states we have E3, PAX, and GDC. Take all 3 of those shows, role them into one giant German schnitzle and you get Gamescom. One of the biggest conventions on the planet for video games and something Europe thrives on. The convention used to be held in former Eastern Block city of Leipzig, but for the last few years is hosted in the west side of Germany’s city of Cologne. The show is massive and fans, business folks, major publishers, and yes even Blizzard attend in full force. So with Gamescom kicking off this week we thought it would make sense to go through the top five things to look for at Gamescom this summer.

This weekend marks the Jubilee Anniversary celebration for the Queen of England and the native developers at Jagex plan to bring the party into RuneScape.

Coinciding with celebrations around the world this weekend, people will enjoy a feast of British classics such as cream teas, fish ‘n’ chips, steak and kidney pies and the breakfast of champions, the full English breakfast, no matter where they are, via the virtual world of RuneScape.com – the Guinness World Record holder for the world’s largest free to play Massively Multiplayer Online Game.
