Go Go, Tokyo Game Show!

September 20, 2007

Although game development happens worldwide, there's no doubt that Japan is central to the gaming industry. And the Tokyo Game Show -- exploding right in Sony and Nintendo's back yard -- is now the most important gaming event on the calendar. This absolutely massive event showcases what's hot and happening on all the major systems just prior to the holiday season. Rivalry between the major manufacturers is intense, and the biggest and best games sometimes make their press debut.

For example: Check out the latest from Metal Gear Solid 4, over at GameSpy or IGN. Sony's keynote speech was a bit of a downer -- there will be no price drop this year -- but at least we're finally seeing a PS3 rumble controller and Little Big Planet looks like a blast.


More importantly? There's a broom controller that you ride. I've always felt that more video game controllers needed to be placed between my legs.

The show officially starts today, which thanks to the time difference means that day one is over and our editors are frantically typing up content as we speak. It'll continue into the weekend, so stick around IGN and GameSpy for coverage. For the real premium stuff -- including lots of hi-def video -- Check out IGN Insider. Enjoy!
