TGS: Here's seven minutes of Soul Sacrifice

Bad news: Soul Sacrifice was delayed to Spring 2013. Good news: Here's a seven minute detailed look at how Soul Sacrifice controls. Bad news: It's all in Japanese so good luck understanding any of it. Good news: You can summon a cat.

TGS: Enjoy this floor gallery while we fight the crowds

Today is the first public day of TGS 2012, which means that we're stuck plowing through a sea of people to get to the good stuff. We've snapped some pictures of cool things and other oddities that we thought you might like to see, including wrestling matches, idol concerts, and more.  We've also included pictures of the crowd itself. Scary, right?

TGS: Creepy leg touching game makes me feel pervy

It wouldn't be a Tokyo Game Show without some kind of creepy gaming experience. This year's find is a mobile game being showcased in Sony's PlayStation Mobile pavilion. Alongside the family friendly experiences here I f...

TGS: A better look at combat in Remember Me

Dontnod Entertainment is trying out some new ideas with Remember Me, and while that's admirable, I'm worried about how the concepts will pan out in the full game. This new footage delves into the combat, starting right off t...

TGS: My Need for Speed Most Wanted 8-player race results

2nd place. But I was absolutely certain I'd score 1st in the 8-player multiplayer room they have set up here at Tokyo Game Show 2012. In covering this event for the last half decade or so I've learned that Japanese attendees ...

TGS: PS All-Stars stays fun while expanding roster

I've been waiting for new PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale character reveals with bated breath, but Sony didn't bring any new characters to TGS. What they did bring is a demo containing 12 characters and five stages, which...

TGS: Arachnophobic after Earth Defense Force 4

There's a new Earth Defense Force game on its way, recently announced by D3 Publisher and Sandlot, and there are few things here at Tokyo Game Show that I was more excited to see. Here on the show floor, the Xbox 360 version...

TGS: Kickin' it with Kazuma the cabbie in Yakuza 5

There's no questioning that Yakuza series protagonist Kazuma Kiryu is a badass of the highest order, but his first appearance in a Tokyo Game Show demo of upcoming PS3 game Yakuza 5 has him in a cab driver's uniform. Yep, the Dragon of Dojima is a taxi driver.  My first thought: Oh no they didn't!

TGS: Earth Defense Force 3 perhaps more awesome on Vita

I never tire of shooting giant bugs, so I was thrilled to see D3 publisher with not one, but two EDF titles on the Tokyo Game Show floor. Earth Defense Forces 3 Portable is port of the game we know as Earth Defense ...

TGS: Please give us Project X Zone right NOW

Namco Bandai's upcoming 3DS multi-company mashup, Project X Zone, is an absolute treat, and is one of the best things I've played at Tokyo Game Show 2012. It's too bad that it has yet to be announced for North America. After ...

TGS: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is wacky in a new way

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure was an odd fighting game for Capcom that was loved by many despite its flaws, in the West. In the East, however, it was one of the first videogames based off a very popular manga series. It's a series...

TGS: Yakuza 1 & 2 HD Edition looks like Yakuza 3

I took a few minutes today at Tokyo Game Show to have a peek at how the HD re-release of the first two installments in the Yakuza series are shaping up. It's looking good, folks. Crisp and sexy, I think players will...

TGS: Medal of Honor: Warfighter is not a Japanese game

[Update: There are currently no plans for Wii U,] I totally stood in line to play Medal of Honor: Warfighter at Tokyo Game Show just so I can tweet that I did so. The idea of playing the antithesis of TGS at TGS is just too g...

TGS: Rockman Xover is, at worst, inoffensive

The Mega Man fan community seems to have their knickers all in a twist over Rockman Xover, Capcom's latest iOS adventure for OVER-1. At least, that's the impression I get from Tony Ponce, and I don't know a greater superfan, ...

TGS: Professor Layton and Phoenix Wright join forces

Professor Layton and Ace Attorney are unique within the puzzle/adventure genre, but both share enough in common with each other to make for a perfect crossover game. Not since Marvel vs. Capcom and Kingdom Hearts have dedicat...
