Konami, your line up, show them to me photo

Ah yes, our fearless leader Niero along with Nick, Dale, Florian, and Eliza are all making their way to Tokyo right now and we back home couldn't be any more jealous, envious, full of rage, prouder of them. We've already told you about what Square, Capcom and Sony are planning on showing. Now lets find out what Konami has under their hat. 

We're already well aware of their what their main game of the event is going to be (and undoubtedly the biggest game of TGS), Metal Gear Solid 4. It's going to be really interesting to see how this will affect all the hypesauce that's on Halo 3 right now. 

Aside from MGS 4, they have plenty of other games to show off. What are they? The jump button will reveal all!
KONAMI ANNOUNCES PREMIUM LINE UP AT 2007 TOKYO GAME SHOW BASED ON TOP VIDEOGAME FRANCHISES

World Premiere of Metal Gear Solid 4 Playable, Brand New Winning Eleven, and New Suite of Fitness Games Await Eager Fans
WHAT:
Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. to showcase a blockbuster line up of new videogames at the 2007 Tokyo Game Show, featuring the world premiere of the first playable Metal Gear Solid 4 for the PLAYSTATION®3; a portfolio of new health and fitness-focused games for the Nintendo Wii™ and Nintendo DS™; and brand new Winning Eleven titles. For the first time fans will get the opportunity for hands-on play with the highly anticipated fourth installment in the Metal Gear Solid series. Also in store for franchise fans will be Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops + for the PSP® system, Metal Gear Solid Online 2.0 and Metal Gear Solid 2 Bande Desinee, the digital graphic novel.

Konami urges fans to "Move your Body!" with several innovative new Nintendo™DS titles that leverage popular fitness genres, including Pilates™, Yoga™ and Skin Basic™, while Wii Fitness™ and the brand new Dance Dance Revolution Hottest Party™ will get players' hearts beating even faster. Big Head Baseball™ and Big Head MLB™ for the Nintendo Wii™ will also be featured for sports fans, along with two new Winning Eleven™ titles, Winning Eleven 2008™ and Winning Eleven 11™.

Rounding out this must-see line up is Time Hollow™ for the Nintendo DS and Silent Hill Origins™: Zero that offer gamers pulse-quickening entertainment on the PSP® system.

First of all, Big Head Baseball? What the hell is that? A way for the Japanese to make fun of all the steroid abusing American Baseball players? I like! Also, it for some reason reminds me of that one Simpsons episode where Mr. Burns creates a company baseball team and one of the players heads becomes gigantic (useless Simpsons info is useless).

Anyway, the real game I'm interested in hearing more about is Silent Hill Origins. Sure, it seems to be bitting from Resident Evil 4, but that's not such a bad thing, is it?

All of the games on that list look terrible except for Me[/b]tal Ge[b]ar Sol[b][/b]id 4, and I don't even care about that unless it's on the 360.

I doubt they'll announce MGS4 for the 360 here. Not yet, anyway. I look forward to hearing impressions on it, though.

Wasn't it Reggie Jackson who had the enormous head from drinking too much tonic?

@Azereki: That's actually one of the only other things from the list that I'm interested in. I just hope they don't bork the para para bits.

I believe it was Ken Griffey Jr. Reggie Jackson wasn't in that episode, it was....
Mike Soscia
Ozzie Smith
Steve Sax
Wade Boggs
Darryl Strawberry
Don Mattingly
Griffey
grrr....I can't think of the rest, so I cheat.
Roger Clemens
Jose Canseco

Ozzie Smith fell into the bottomless pit where he saw E=MC2
Griffey had the Brain and Nerve Tonic
all of them had some sort of thing happen to them where they couldn't play. Except Strawberry, who played in Homer's spot. Great episode

Mike Scioscia: Acute radiation poisoning
Ozzie Smith: never returned from the "Springfield Mystery Spot"
Steve Sax: Imprisoned by the Springfield police department
Wade Boggs: Knocked out by Barney after a heated debate over England's greatest Prime Minister
Darryl Strawberry: he was cool to play
Don Mattingly: Fired over sideburns. (On a side note, he still likes Burns better than Steinbrenner)
Griffey: Gigantism due to an overdose of nerve tonic
Roger Clemens: Hypnotised to believe he was a chicken
Jose Canseco: 15 years later, and he's still hauling shit out of that woman's burning house

I watch alot of old Simpsons episodes.

"Big Head Baseball" probably means Konami is going to start releasing the Jikkyou Powerful Pro Baseball series in America. Though, I'm sure that they'll use made-up teams or MLB teams to replace the Japanese ones.
