TGS 09: First day booth babe blowout photo

It just wouldn't be Tokyo Game Show without some booth babes. Who am I to mess with the tried and true formula?

While our first day schedule was packed, I still managed to sneak in some booth babe pictures for our first gallery. There is a noticeable decrease in the number of babes this year for some reason. I'm somehow hoping that the event is just holding back for the first press-only day, and that they have plans to bring out the bevy of babes tomorrow. Where are the rows of countless girls that we're used to? Where is the senseless skin showing that I'm used to?

What's worse is that some booths are too cool for babes? Both Sony and Square Enix are going all high-brow on us. How silly is it to only focus on games at a gaming convention? 

Enjoy our first gallery below, and look forward to more throughout the week. If you can't wait hit our archives: Mr. Destructoid vs. Booth babes, last year's gallery, and who could forget Jim's arse.

What has the Dante's "lust" promotion and the GayGamer dude taught us about Booth Babes?

Also, that booth babe in the header image really disturbs me. Bag that face up.

Is it bad that my eyes went to the screen with the trailer first?

I love babes, but I'm actually more curious about what's going on with the Lunar promotion there. Is there a new game or something coming out?

I spied Dragon Quest. I suggest that the smiling, loquacious booth babe should move out of the way of the game before she's crushed underfoot by the impending stampede of rabid Dragon Questers.

The Yakuza 4 trailer is a slice of awesomeness that the booth cannot properly represent (represent!).

You know, I'm actually curious how many of these girls already have boyfriends. The car models I know all do. Don't know if this will be a bonerkill or not to y'all.

No babes in fighting game costumes?? I was really hoping for good looking Chun or Litchi this year.

So not only do they have better booth babes, they give out better swag?

Man... I want me a Lunar fan soooo badly now!

@ikiryou that's what I was thinking too- it is just a slave leia outfit with a sword- I sure hope some publisher isn't stupid enough to put a slave leia in a game w/o permission as they will get a pretty big smackdown

Eh, anyone else feel they sort of picked the booth babes out of the discount bin this year? I mean there were a few good ones, ninja gaiden, dragon quest, and alienware(?), but the rest seem pretty iffy compared to previous years or other cons.

Maybe it's just the faces, I don't see any really good ones.

WoW! The quality of booth babes have seriously diminished. These are more like bargain basement babes.

Seriously these girls are not nearly as cute as last year's. And the costumes look somewhere in between bad Halloween costume remnants and Bargain Hooker. :(

Sounds like an Ultra or a Limit Break.

The only beast I see is the Tecmo girl, and maybe the Okami girl too.
Personally, I'm loving the Slave Leia, as random as she is at a Japanese game convention.

Teehee, nevermind. I confused this boothbabe post with the other one.
Carry on, fellas. ;p
