Hollywood stars land at Gamescom

A host of stars from Hollywood and the world of sport will be attending this year’s Gamescom.

VIP guests range from the Harry Potter series’ Weasley twins, Oliver and James Phelps – already spotted at EA’s press conference yesterday – to Formula One driver Adrian Sutil.

Also due to attend the five-day event is former World Cup and European Champion Andres Kpke, who will be teaming up with other football personalities to assist EA Sports’ FIFA presentation.

Well-known musicians Sammy Deluxe, Oli Banjo and Das Bo will be present at various stands, as well Germany’s Next Top Model star Gina List Lohfink and Playboy Playmate Bernadette Kaspar – the latter of which plays the main character in Bigpoint’s online browser game Poisonville.
