If anyone else who reads this stuff is going it would be great to meet someone else there. I'm heading to Tokyo for two weeks on Monday. This year should be rather interesting. PS3, Wii and Xbox 360 are in the shadows this year. The main plot of this show seems to be over 100 mobile games and near 200 PC games. Mostly bargin bin Japanese stuff. I don't know what to expect this year but the cosplay was awesome last year. I will be taking HD footage of the event and posting a non-HD version on youtube. I would post HD if I could. Anyone have 3 gigs of webspace? Another hint on the food. If you've been to a convention, you know how bad food is. Well it's worse here. Horrid looking meals and nowhere to sit. I'll take footage of the near 300 Japanese people sitting on the floor eating. That was a sight. Just for info for those going. There is a good fast food spot next to the train station there. The food places fill up quick after the show ends. I'm talking thousands of people leaving at once all going to eat. I expect there will be more swag this year than last. Last year was light on swag, mostly catalogues. Post a comment if you're going! I went to TGS last year and will be hitting it again this year.
