Tokyo Game Show 2007, Makuhari Messe

Posted on Tuesday 25 September 2007

Yet another big event that I managed to catch over the weekend. This time it’s the Tokyo Game Show 2007. This event is held in Makuhari Messe (the same exhibition hall where Interop was held) which means I had to travel for more than an hour from my place just to get there. Anyway, I’m not a console gaming freak myself but what da heck… it’s a once-a-year-event… might as well just check it out right? :P

So, I made my way there on Saturday morning… and after 15 minutes of walk to the train station, 1 hour and 15 minutes of train ride and another 10 minutes of walk… I managed to get to the main entrance! :)

Welcome to Tokyo Game Show 2007! :P

more pictures after the jump… (please be patient while the picture loads)

First of all… it’s packed. But that’s not a surprise since console gaming is such a big thing and everyone just wants to sample the latest games and devices.

TGS 2007
The Movie Square where it showcase a gallery of the past movies within the industry… more like a museum thingy.

TGS 2007
The Microsoft area… they’re doing some interviews or some sort… but all in Japanese… zenzen wakaranai.

TGS 2007
Halo 3… the queue for this game is so long…

TGS 2007
Devil May Cry 4… I like the anime… but very short… only 12 episodes.

TGS 2007
Square Enix and the famous chocobo from Final Fantasy.

TGS 2007
Konami - super cool Metal Gear Solid 4 video…

Talk about perfect timing… when I was there… I managed to see AKB48 perform live! These girls are really great!!! But sadly… there’s loads of their staffs around - cameras are not allowed. :(

TGS 2007
Yet another artist performing or something… but this one I “tak kenal” la~

 

Now these guys are really strict about the no camera policy… especially when it comes to live interviews or performances and also their games available… However, I did manage to take a couple of shots from a far and some just curi-curi la… I didn’t manage to try out for any of the console games because the queues are just too long! Minimum 30 minutes of waiting time for ONE game! I really don’t have the patience man… hahaha…

As with all the big big events… there’s one thing in common - nice looking Japanese girls passing out flyers and lots of people with camera snapping their pictures. Of course, I also don’t want to lose out la~ hahaha… so, I did take a couple… just for fun.
