Quantcast



Remember how we showed you the silly trailer Alienware created to tease some kind of reveal at next week's Tokyo Game Show? Well, now there's a follow-up video, and it makes just as little sense as the first.

The "invasion" looms even closer. Now, from the looks of it, it's hovering over Tokyo. In the first video, a kite-loving American kid saw the aliens. Now a girl in a Tokyo highrise apartment sees the same thing. She thinks it's just a dream, walks up to her window, and looks outside to see that it was real. "They're coming," the tagline says.

What is this? A laptop? A console-ish PC? A phone? A portable? We'll find out in a few short days. Meanwhile, someone should tell the aliens hovering over Tokyo that TGS takes place at Makuhari Messe, which is about an hour away from where they're hovering.

I can see it being a portable something or other. Or it could very well just be a new line of PCs.

Not terribly insightful.

...Then the spaceship doors open and start dropping massive foam blocks with ridiculous shapes cut out of them, expecting the Japanese populace to play their most revered national sport en masse.

Yeah, something portable. I'm guessing a netbook, but with a pretty decent spec on it.

For the Japanese market? It's gotta be small. Gaming netbook?

Yeah I want the things I can't have. I like how they make me feel like I can't have it right off the bat! Oh I'll show them... ;)

Niero, I somewhat doubt they've perfected Tardis technology to the point of a gaming netbook.

Not that I wouldn't buy the hell out of one, of course.
