This news doesn't make any sense. According to this photo on the internet, a lot of people went out to buy Xbox One in Japan.

They had other games but not a lot at that point, though I have no idea why they'd even bother bringing over an NFL game.  Maybe they were just showing everything they had, even if they weren't localizing it.

Honestly in TGS 2008 I was too busy flirting with the Japanese booth babes. I vaguely remember LBP, Killzone 2, Yakuza 3 and Biohazard 5 being displayed as well as the improved Advent Children movie by SE. Then I was distracted by the cosplay girls in the lobby... I was 21 I please understand!!!

As for E3 I met a few VGC members. I think his username was nightsurge... and I remember him specifically because he was like 5 feet tall. As for games Uncharted 3 and Resistance 3 were the games I wanted and eventually owned and loved. Dark Souls was another game but I never actually purchased. I also got to get my hands on the Vita... which was a big deal then because it wasn't released. The Wii U tablet was shown off but that was of no interest to me. The games I liked and purchased later then regreted were Zelda Sky-something for Wii and Stree Fighter X Tekken.

Here I am with the cast of Uncharted 2

Who wouldn't flirt with hot japanese booth babes? From left to right, who are the people?

From left to right.

The guy who played the villian in Uncharted 2, me, Sully, and Nolan North (Nathan Drake).

That's pretty cool man. Hanging out with the ND crew. Nolan North is a spectacular VA. Oh btw, are you from Cleveland? I just noticed the Indians cap. I was born and raised in Cleveland, OH.
