13 Biggest WTF Moments From Gamescom 2019
3. Sony Almost Steals The Show (Without Being There)
Sony has decided to sit quietly on its mountain in radio silence this year. With Gamescom, we saw no break in this routine as they chose yet again to not hold a streaming conference - yet, they did have one hell of an ace up their sleeve.
During the Opening Night show, host Geoff Keighley was interrupted mid-speech via earpiece with the surprise announcement that Sony had officially bought Insomniac Games in a slam-dunk first-party studio move.
This managed to be the most rip-roaring surprise news throughout the solid (but humble) showing. Was it a pure coincidence, or a sly move on Playstation's part?
Whatever the motive, it was a great way of staying in the conversation, without even having to show up at the party.
