TGS Fun as Always! :D | September 20, 2011

by Joe

Tokyo Game Show was a blast! :D This year’s event was smaller than the last two I attended, due to the March disaster, but my favourite companies were still there and countless droves of gamers from all over the world made it out :D Here are some pics!


After seeing all the big screen trailers and gameplay videos that I could, my two personal highlights were:

Final Fantasy XIII-2 – The trailer looked great! I wasn’t as excited as when I saw the FFXIII trailer last year, but it was still cool :D Nothing groundbreaking, though.

Theatrhythm Final Fantasy – This trailer started off with quick flashes of every Final Fantasy with updated graphics. At first I thought, “Holy shit, are they remaking and releasing ALL the old-school Final Fantasy’s in one awesome package?!” But, then, alas, A Rock Band-esque rhythm battle system was shown, playing to the music of FFVI’s battle music. My hopes were dashed. That is until the video kept playing and the music from all of my favourite FFs filled the stage. My heart and mind remembered how much I love FF music and how you can’t have an FF game without the music. My inner child screamed with excitement and if this game gets released to North America, it may be reason enough to get a 3DS! :D

But! The biggest highlight was (and always will be!) the cosplayers :D



We had a great time and this TGS should be our last one, living in Japan. I definitely want to be back in the future! Maybe even be part of the show! :D



Enjoy Scene 16 – “Loud Neighbours”!

… didn’t think that Jess was that insecure… yes she showed signs, but… it just didn’t seem her core was this flimsy.
Or maybe she did in fact invest more hope in Joe than she should have (being rational as she must be to survive)…
….poor Jess.

Is it just me or are the chapters getting shorter? That aside, I think that rusty probably got pissed off at someone and just shot him. Idk, but all I have to say is OH SHIT SOOOON!!!!

Rusty shoots a crossbow, not a gun, those were gunshots. he didnt get a rifle yet, until he joins the army.
@ Joe: It looks awsome, I wish I could have been there. Im thinking of makeing a few cutout charecters of my own, maybe have them at a beach with purple sand :)

Been a while since I commented. The Comic is still going great, very interesting story!
Today was the first time a cliffhanger in this story made me go “no ._.”. So well done Joe, you finally got me.

That girl with blue hair aiming a weapon up is cosplaying as “Blue Rose” From Tiger & Bunny, an excellent anime with a good plot and lots of advertising

Joe the author, if some one hasn’t already said it but, the three girls one in black, another in green, and another in red they’re from vocaloids anime. Don’t know their names because I was never too interested in the anime.

Those three girls from the second line are from left to right: Hatsune Miku BLACK ROCK SHOOTER version, Hatsune Miku classic version and MEIKO, all from the Vocaloid program.
And this FF game makes me want a 3DS so much D= FF songs are awesome =D

Hey Joe, have you ever head about Video Games Live? It’s a game music show, I loved it the first time I’ve gone =) It’ll happen again Oct 15 here in Brazil, I’ll post some photos of it at the forums.

That’s not a nice place to leave a cliffhanger. You show us a vague outline of what’s happening, THEN you leave a cliffhanger. That’s how it works.

I guess a vampire tryied to shoot Rusty and drain him.
And Rusty used his Rusty-Power to kill the vampire ( thus stealing the gun ).

AJ,please,in a NEAR future,ADD VOICES! That would be awesome. And remove cliffhangers.

Btw,read Eragon.

Yay!
