Hey guys! I'm back online again and heres my first contribution to sR.
I know its kind of late posting something about TGS 05, but after moving to Japan it took a while to get internet connection, so please understand!
I moved to Chiba and Makuhari Messe (really nice place) is quite close so going there wasn't too much of a trouble.
Here are the photos I took: (its not a great camera and some are blurred)
I never went to a big event like this, so I wasn't really fully prepared to go around the booth well, but I had a really fun time.
I think what most people looked for was the next gen consoles, and you could tell that Microsoft was trying really hard to attract the Japanese users. They were doing a lot of things like giving away a cool looking bag with big Xbox 360 logos for free. The whole 360 design thing and booth was nice and when I got to play the game demo, the controller felt good too, but personally I wasn't too impressed with the actual game. But I am a Sony fan so this comment is a little biased.
What impressed me the most was the PS3 booth with the huge monitor showing both new and old trailers from E3. The MGS4 trailer made with the PS3 dev kit was really amazing, and some other trailers showed amazing in game graphics. The big disappointment was that there were no playable demos. Sony also had a pretty good PSP booth, but the PlayStation Spot where people could try the game demos on their own PSP didn't really work and that was another disappointment.
I can talk more but I think you guys already visited Gamespot or IGN so I won't go on :smash: I'll add some pics of the stuff I brought back from the game show later.
Final Fantasy 7 Turks? Too bad it was blurry but it looks pretty cool, PS2 game I would assume. It has those cell shading anime-type graphics which are pretty sweet

Before Crisis. its a cell-phone game that came out a while ago, was going to be released on another handheld too but im not sure if thats happened yet.
I'm new here, so I'm just looking around to see what's the big fuss about this sR thing, so far it seems to be pretty big. Cool pics on that Tokyo Game Show !!
