	Welcome to the Tokyo Game Show - Games - Technology - smh.com.au (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		Welcome to the Tokyo Game Show, the annual celebration of games and gaming culture in a country long considered the spiritual home of video games.
		But in many eyes, gaming still suffers the stigma of being geeky and anti-social and has a long way to go before it reaches the cultural acceptance it enjoys in Japan, where most homes have at least one console and video games are played by all ages and both sexes.
		About 25 per cent of all games at the show were for mobile phones, and Nintendo's DS and Sony's PSP also had a strong presence.

		Our intrepid team scoured the show floor to bring you the best of the women who were strutting their stuff for the populous.
		Although it has lost some stature to E3 over the last few years, the Tokyo Game Show is still one of the most influential industry events for console gaming.
		This year's show should be especially spectacular, with Blizzard's much-heralded announcement of StarCraft: Ghost for next-gen consoles, and 19 titles to be revealed by Microsoft.

	Gamasutra - Features - "Event Wrap-Up: Tokyo Game Show 2003"
		Here at the Tokyo Game Show, which took place September 26-28, Japan's publishers and developers demonstrated their latest titles to a business audience for one day, and the general public for two days.
		In a culture and society where much is left to be inferred from posture and the silences between remarks, the annual game show presents a ready spectacle that sets the tone for the Japanese gaming industry for the year to come.
		Game resale stores are old news in Akihabara, the electronics district on the East side of Tokyo.

		Add these shots to the stack of evidence that demonstrates that gaming in Japan is both a family and a public affair, free from the stigma that plague the hobby in the United States.
		Advertising's inneffective: Given limited budget, game companies appear to prefer to pour Yen into their booths, the babes that staff them, the bags the babes hand out, and other tangible improvements to enhance their show presences.
		Game promoters have other means of driving traffic to (and interest in) their booths and their games.

	Japanmanship: Tokyo Game Show 2006
		The first day is reserved for game industry professionals and journalists, with the weekend being open to all the public wishing to queue and pay for the honour of experiencing the noise and crush of people and PR and oversized laminated bags with single A4 marketing sheets in them..
		One more odious aspect of the game show, which has become more prevalent over the years, is the idiotic idea you are not allowed to take photographs.
		The show in Germany might be the one to take over the torch from E3, because I don’t think TGS can muster the energy and enthusiasm it once might have had.

		The Tokyo Game Show (TGS) 2006 happened about two weeks ago, but Rae and I were editing this video and working, so boo.
		Tokyo Game Show 2006 is curently the game industry’s second largest show and it celebrated it’s 10 year anniversary this year.
		Every year, spectators can roam between different game developer pavillions and try out some of the newer games (if you enjoy waiting in lines for 45 minutes and up) and collect mass piles of advertising crap.

	News From Tokyo Game Show 2006: Day One \| American Inventor Spot
		Showing games from popular publishers such as Namco, Konami, and SNK, Microsoft kept a steady flow of hungry fans looking at their arcade games section.
		XBox Live Arcade is a great idea, but most of the games released on it aren’t so interesting to me. I guess the reason behind the XBLA is to appease to older gamers, who were actually around and playing games when these classics were popular.
		The trailer also showed off some of the new gameplay features that are planned for the game, such as Snake jumping in a barrel and rolling through enemies.

	Tokyo Game Show 2006: The Kikizo Report
		Celebrating its tenth year running, the Tokyo Game Show finished yesterday on a high note, one of genuine positivity and excitement about the stuff gamers will be buying over the next six months, and a clarion call that the ongoing battle between Sony and Microsoft is, in fact, far from decided.
		PS3 consoles at the show itself weren't quite as easy to touch, guarded in their display enclosures, but nonetheless it was the first time such an onslaught of playable PS3 software was available to consumers and the media.
		Throw in the consumers on day two of the show, who of course reacted positively to PS3, and you have a position that looks and feels very different to the one Sony found itself having to deal with coming out of E3 this year.

		The console will also gain 1080p output support for movies and games in an autumn dashboard update, the company said, although it will still direct its developers and third parties to focus on 720p as the software standard.
		But with a universally panned E3 showing, a painful European delay and some extraordinary hubris behind it, Sony has to make good on its promises at TGS more than Microsoft has to get up in the morning.
		Last year, a lot of Japanese people we spoke to admitted that they were waiting for Sony to show its cards, and this will be their first chance to examine them.

		That is the main reason so many 360 games a filled with jaggies as developers don't or can't write tile renderers as their games are already running in the just playable 20-30fps range already.
