back to basics.

well, here we are. this is the last day, and similar uninspiring comments.

today at least we have media passes. ^_^ guess the ed. staff won't have to die after all.

I can't belive I'm actually missing work to come to the last day of E3. Worth it? Yes it is.

even though i had spent most of the first day in the south hall, i didn't really want to stay in the west hall too long. south hall has most of the games.

well, west hall does have its moments. this is where the big three are showing off their wares —nintendo, sony, and sega, from right to left as you go in.

first off, since I've been missing it, let's see about the sega games. oh yeah! space station. . .five dancers

yet another drooling break.

we all know the primary reason for coming to these game expos is to see games. booth babes are secondary.

ah well. still need to find out what the game is about. . . dancers, but no information. not good.

and also not good. . .

it seems no one at pioneer has any idea what will happen to the lain game in america, or indeed cares one way or another. at this rate the import looks like our only choice.

i also decided to give up on jaleco for today. there is no way i'll be able to play vampire hunter d anytime soon. . . may as well wait until it comes out and see what it's like.

so this hasn't been a good day for anime games. . .

and no news on the eva game, either. . . any of them.

i know of them, i've played the one on the n64 (strictly for hardcore otaku both gaming and anime.)

still kinda bummed about the news of the lain. we know of it, but we have no idea whether it'll be exported.

i hate it that i'm at this massive trade show and yet am being shot down in every attempt to see the only game i really care about!

nazi rat bastards!!!!!

i'm starting to think i may have just been dealing with complete idiots who knew only the prices of the dvds and nothing more.

ah well, such is life.

another ddr break!!!

is it just me, or is konami trying to teach the masses rhythm?

the ddr games, the guitar game, the dj game. . .

good work. . .

i guess that's good for the music industry at least. . .

but please make the next ones less confusing! i thought i had fairly good coordination, but sadly, i was proven wrong with one try of the dj game on easy mode.

as for the x-box. . .

what really bothers me about it, other than the m$ monopoly problems, is that there seem to be virtually no third-party game developers.

i don't see how it can possibly compete.

the snk vs. capcom game looks nice. . . like snk is doing most of the graphics work. very detailed.

ah, but they're shutting the games down and ushering us out.

time to go home, see what of the free stuff we keep. . . and what becomes namagomi.
