Gamescom 2012 Gallery

eTeknix have made a safe return to the UK after what has been a week of pure chaos in Cologne, the sunny weather kept a steady pace of around 30c and hundred of thousands of people descended on one of the years largest public gaming events to see what was on offer.

We saw a staggering number of booths, displays, shows, events and so much more happening in an almost random fashion around the show, there was so much on offer that it truly was impossible to catch everything on offer, you could be walking past a stand when an impromptu display and give-away would kick off only to enter the next hall with the feeling you just missed something epic, but such is the way these shows happen when there is so much there, fortunately you will always find something to entertain you.

This being in Germany, a lot of the announcements and stage shows were in German, since one two of us at eTeknix can speak German, we were lost, so if you see pictures of people throwing out loot, that picture tells you a thousand words more than we can of why.

So lets start by showing you some of what was going on in and around the halls of Gamescom this year and we hope you enjoy the gallery.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
