Day 0 of Gamescom, a day exclusively for the press and members of the games industry has come to a close. Tomorrow morning the floodgates will open to the public and mayhem will undoubtedly ensue. But the fact that it is relatively empty gives us the perfect opportunity to take you on a brief photographic tour.

The biggest console gaming franchise on the planet is front and center

Welcome to Gaming Nirvana

That perfectly orderly and efficient line to get into the show was brutal!

Strolling through the business center and what do I see? Big Blue

If those walls could talk

With bonus nonfunctional audio! Deeper and less snide impressions to come..

The cosplayers were afoot, even on press day. Does anyone know who these ladies are supposed to be?
IMG_1318
Their faces were not photographed to keep the Templars guessing
IMG_1323
Uruk Hi From Gamescom!
IMG_1319
It almost looks like Alien:Isolation is mocking the Wii U from afar
IMG_1320
These halls, and there are about six of them, are truly massive.
IMG_1321
Super Smash was Super Popular
IMG_1324
No word on whether or not this was a hands on or hands off demo, you’ll know on Friday when we do.
IMG_1325
While I do speak a little German I couldn’t help but giggle a little bit at the translated titled for Shadow of Mordor. Which does kind of work in context, as you will be taking out the trash as a badass Wraith.
IMG_1334
The Microsoft rep practically begged people to take an empty seat. Project Spark looks cool, I just don’t think most people wants to take the time to design AI routines, no matter how streamlined they may be.
IMG_1331
It felt a little weird to see Battlefield: Hardline so close to the Xbox booth, as they also are intrinsically connected to Call of Duty as well.
IMG_1329
And who doesn’t like creepy mascots dancing behind you while you try to ape the Macarena in front of a large audience? Despite that, the volunteers seemed to love it.
IMG_1328
Ubisoft had a huge presence at the show, and two of the biggest booths. Assassin’s Creed on the left and
IMG_1327
Far Cry 4 on the right
IMG_1326
One of the weirdest booth designs I’ve yet to see.
IMG_1353
Scratch that
IMG_1350
Project Morpheus, otherwise known as the Isaac Clarke simulator
IMG_1349
or the I will NEVER go into the water again simulator
IMG_1339
At least they weren’t making anyone sing along with the bouncing ball.
IMG_1340
Eat your heart out Goat Simulator
IMG_1341
Proof that gamers aren’t all lazy, unathletic schlubs.
IMG_1342
And who will be driving you?
IMG_1345
Sony had much more open demo stations, and the least chaotic as a result..Sorry no sarcastic wit for this one.
IMG_1355
Friends shouldn’t let friends Journey alone
IMG_1314
Off to my next appointment, this time for Dying Light, which I was very pleasantly surprised by. Hands on impressions to follow shortly.
IMG_1336
But an even greater surprise awaited me inside the WB booth, a very tired looking, but very happy Ed Boon, creator of Mortal Kombat.

Well that was Day 1 in a nutshell, minus the impressions of the games I saw, but you won’t have to wait for long, so stay tuned to Dual Pixels as we have a lot more reporting coming your way from Gamescom 2014!

While I've traveled the world since the tender age of 6 I have never been far from the world of video games. I currently live in the Netherlands and aim to provide an international perspective on gaming culture to the ravenous audience of Dual Pixels. My favorite genres are first or third person action-adventures and western role playing games. That being said, I play everything I can on my PS4 and PS Vita.
