It's day two Gamescom 2014, and things don't get much bigger and crazier than this outside of E3. Microsoft and Sony both held their big press conferences, and there were a serious amount of announcements. Here's a taste: Tomb Raider is an Xbox One exclusive, Sony has sold 10 million PS4s, and PlayStation has a number of fresh-looking new games on the way. Do yourself a favor and jump past the break for a more complete list of links, and check in on the full PlayStation and Xbox press conference round-ups.
We'll be back tomorrow with guests-- so many guests.
