Hey gang, Ethird speaking. It’s been a while.

Apart from being busy, I was also being lazy… therefore nothing much has been up for a while; but here’s a report I just remembered from my experience at the Tokyo Game Show 2010 almost 2 months ago.

editors note: Make that almost 4 months ago, since I’ve been in China and unable to post this up :P

First of all, it’s packed with waves and waves of human meat; so many people you can barely move sometimes (it wasn’t as bad as comike, but was still pretty packed). If you’re a visitor, and didn’t stay overnight in this line going into the hall, then it’s about an average of 3 hours wait before seeing any fun (not to mention all the so-called trial versions of the games required for you to get in line also before having a little go at it). For me, though, I was lucky because I had a straight entrance path, so I just walked pass all the crowds and got right in LOL.

Therefore, I got in early and fast, so wasn’t really all that packed at that moment.

And then in comes the public about an hour later…

Had a first-hand go at THE long awaited game, MARVEL VS CAPCOM 3. It was bloody awesome!! God I love Deadpool, he’s bloody kick ass in the game. Like hell yeah!!

Oh, and the reason I got a special pass? My course gives it to us for free as we’re game developer/designer-students, so it was insisted that were to attend. Plus I took part in making a game as a group project, so this is kind of like an unofficial assignment I took part in with some seniors in my course. Said game turned out… okay… I guess LOL.

The game can be seen below, second from the left (that brown poster). The game’s being exhibited as a playable game.

So, to wrap things up, it was fun, but wasn’t really all that special an event; purely because all the unreleased, playable demos are coming out soon anyway. For the ones that aren’t, you can download them from PSN, Xbox Live, etc to have a go at it later on. Nonetheless, playing a few strong titles (like MVC3) is an opportunity which could not be experienced anywhere else (not yet anyway).

Anyway, back to hell for me. So behind with this deadline LOL.

Ethird over and out!!
