Microsoft's Tokyo Game Show Showing

Posted by Zonk on from the serenity-to-accept-the-things-we-cannot-change dept.

Microsoft's Tokyo Game Show press conference had quite a few choice revelations, above and beyond 1080p for the 360. Several 360 titles are now platinum with games like Kameo, Project Gotham Racing, and Perfect Dark Zero becoming available for about $30 in October. For those with Xbox Live, the first bring it home content is now available from TGS. Demos are expected later this week, but so far all we have to show for the event are some picture packs. The hopeful Xbox presentation, located as it is in Tokyo, has prompted some consideration of the 360's future in Japan. Despite the upbeat tone, the general consensus seems to be Microsoft has already lost the Japanese market, before the other systems are even on the market.

    For 3 seconds (not a second) I seriously thought the same thing.
    I envisioned some sort of popup bonanza and the host dressed as MS Bob.
