Despite touting that Summer Game Fest will serve as a better platform for companies that decided to do digital events on their own and failed, Geoff Keighley told us to expect what is expected and not high on "what if?" and wishes.

Using Twitter Space as a platform, Geoff Keighley interestingly, urged people watching this Thursday's Summer Game Fest to not go on the expectation that the show will have surprises.

"This is a really exciting weekend for me because I get to finally see things we’ve been talking about to people for months.

We’ve obviously announced a bunch of things since I last talked to you guys in terms of world premieres and announcements that will be at the show.

We’ve talked about The Callisto Protocol. That will be there. We’ll have the first gameplay demo you guys probably saw the trailer for… We’re excited to show that to you.

We’ll have the first level walkthrough of Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2: That game looks really incredible, and we’re excited to showcase that for you as well on Thursday.

We’ll have a reveal and some news around Gotham Knights and some new footage of that game as well. Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course is really coming out on June 30th, just over three weeks away, and we’ll have some new footage and studio MDHR joining us as well for that.

Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson will be stopping by. If you played the Fortnite Collision event yesterday, like I did, you saw The Foundation in there, which was tons of fun, so we’ll look forward to hearing from him.

We’ll have a lot more to share this week. Some other things we’re going to tease in the coming days and then there will be lots of things we’ll save until the show.

What I would say is that a lot of the games we’re going to show you are going to be [already] announced…  games are going to show new content to you, like some of the ones I’ve mentioned

We’ve got a couple of new game announcements in the show and hopefully some surprises if everything holds. But it definitely is a show that’s primarily focused on stuff that is announced.

So we’re doing some good stuff for you, but definitely manage your expectations in terms of the megaton shocks that you’re expecting. This is not The Game Awards. We’ve got lots of good stuff to show you but buyer beware of some of the crazy rumors I’m seeing out there in terms of things people expect to get announced."

I mean yes, it is a GOOD thing a trend that many companies are doing from this kind of presentation in recent years, lowing the random hype and creating TRUE expectations it is a better thing to do as hyping and leaving much to the surprise factor have been proven to be a double-edged sword and somehow contributing to fight misinformation, a much needed thing these troubling times.
