There's a lot of companies I expect to see at Tokyo Game Show. Sony, Konami, Square Enix, even Microsoft. But Alienware? Normally I would have called you a liar if you told me that Alienware was going to be there. But they are, according to a teaser email sent to my inbox today.

The email subject reads "the invasion is coming." Here's the rest of the email:

It continues.... and landfall is expected at the Tokyo Game Show next week. 

Aside from that, the only other things given were a Facebook link, another webpage link for a site called AllPowerful.com, and this teaser trailer. I don't know what to make of this. A green-screened kid flying a kite? What does this have to do with TGS? What does this have to do with Japan?

Any guesses?

New console!

Were you expecting a serious answer? Probably something boring that half the PC crowd will boo and half will praise. Pfft, PC gamers.

New product launch, I'm sure. We'll keep an eye out -- we've got a team of 4 headed there.

Better than any news console related where a third loves it and the other 2 thirds always loathe it and rant about why it sucks.

Maybe they'll announce a new laptop! Maybe it won't be as fat and ugly as the new M17x! Maybe they will price it reasonably or try to give it a proper cooling system or make it a respectable size!

But they won't. Just another poorly built, hideous Dual Core and 2 generation old graphics card machine they'll charge $3000 for. Oh, wait, you wanted an operating system with that computer? 4000, then.

About time for a main case redesign. Probably 3 of them, ya think?

Haha, touché. Realistically I'm interested but I know it'll be some badass thing outta my league so I'll bash it and secretly love it like a schoolgirl crush.

I actually get a discount in Alienware ( and Dell in general) throught my job. So maybe I'll wait instead of buying an M17X.

Alienware sucks!

Did you know they sell computers with known issues and will force you to keep them if you dotnreturn them in the next 30 days after recieved??? I found this out the hardway as apperantly my 7700 was one of the systems with MOST known issues and even so they kept ripping people off up until today in they're ebay store.

Alienware is just fucking shit
