So who's in? Who's going to be there? We have the potential for the biggest meet up, so it would be awesome to see a lot of you there!

I never attend any game show but do you know if they have a conference on Gamescom?

If we're talking about Sony, then yes - when they've attended they've had a livestreamed conference similar to E3.

I'm not sure if Sony have confirmed they'll be there this year, but they definitely have hinted at it. I think it's safe to say they'll be there, and Shenmue III will have their showing at their conference.

I'm definitely considering it. Had a look and it appears that Saturday is already sold out, would be good to know when they're doing their bit!

Thanks for clarifying that Spaghetti. I wonder how the trailer will start. If their showing a clip it must mean that Ryo model is final.

Good luck with hotels. You are talking £600 and up. That's even 10 miles from the venue.

I very close to pulling the trigger but am trying not too due to the money involved. I looked at hotels and the prices are crazy, however you can get an AirBNB for like 52 quid a night which is about a 5km walk to the venue (15 minute train/bus).
I've always followed Gamescom via Twitch and stuff, so I don't really know what the in person experience is like. The main question on my mind currently is, Will YSnet be apart of a Conference (Like Sony in 2014 - Link says they are considering it:
http://www.pushsquare.com/news/2017/06/e3_2017_sony_considering_gamescom_2017_press_conference), or will they have their own booth?

If it was just part of the livestream, I'd be happy to give it a miss, but if YSnet have their own booth showing off the game!?!!!?!?! lol I'd totally be down. Honestly I think the chances of them having their own booth are slim though, simply down to the amount of the game we have seen. What you guys think?

This is my chance finally, I'll definately attend the show for at least the day they're planning to unveil the game when they got something on stage. Not sure how exactly I'm gonna do it but man I really have to this time!

Cheapest hotel I could get was out beside the Airport. £110 a night. Still pretty steep but it is what it is.

Can we please do another countdown to E3/twitch/stream kind of thing? This is more exciting then E3 as we know Shenmue 3 is gonna be there for real, there's gonna be actual footage and also new announcements. I used to love getting home from work and going on youtube to see everyone chatting while Shenmue music played. Good times.

The dojo will be streaming Shenmue music daily 7 days before Gamescom starts.

I'm trying desperately to save for my holiday to Barbados this November... if somehow I can spare something, I'd like to be there!

Seriously considering it. I'll have to get back to you if I can do it then, all depends on several factors but yes, I definitely don't want to miss this opportunity. [-X
