Quantcast


Want to know what's going to be at Tokyo Game Show?  photo

What do Dale, Nick, Rey and myself get to check out when we head out next month to this year's Tokyo Game Show, you ask? Well, it seems like (via show organizer CESA) a few companies have released listings of what games will be shown, including Tecmo Koei, Sega, Level 5, Acquire and Q Games. Among the list, one notable that jumped out was Professor Layton and the Flute of Malevolent Destiny for Nintendo DS. hey ... that's new! Is it just me, or is that whole Victorian porn vibe really starting to show through in these titles?

You can hit the jump for the current list, which is only a fragment of what will be shown at the event, but exciting to see nonetheless. We also know, aside from the list, that  Konami will be showing off Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. I'm personally really excited to see Pixeljunk Shooter and Pixeljunk Monsters Deluxe, but that's a totally biased response since I'm obsessed with everything Pixeljunk Monsters. What games are you hoping to see shown?

Gimme some Dead Rising 2--they haven't shown that shit since the announcement and I'm ready for more. The Lost Planet 2 demo is pretty dope.

God, I wish Nintendo would attend. Does anybody know why they never go to the Tokyo game show?

So Japan gets word of a fourth Professor Layton game before we even see the second one. =P

I see my Layton. Hopefully I learn enough Japanese before Layton 4 is localized...which will probably be in a really long time.

Resonance of Fate is there and Layton is there, so I think I'll do fine through this year TGS.

@ hickwarrior: the third one is about time travelling and a time machine, not a flute. IIRC the correct translation for the third title was "The Last Time Travel". they also took a year and a half to reveal the sequel for the second game, why reveal the third game even before the second one's out?

so many questions... now I'm actually quite excited for TGS. :P
