Well E3 was definitely big this year but everyone is really looking forward to how Microsoft is going to position themselves in the Asian markets which are dominated by Sony and Nintendo products. The lackluster sales of the current generation XBOX in Asia as well as Europe have really dissappointed Microsoft Execs (they just want to be king of the hill everywhere) but this does potentially mean there will be big things coming to 360. Games we could only dream about playing on this platform before will become reality. Microsoft is betting the bank this time and the bank they have to bet is pretty darned big! Ok, so what will be interesting is what games and other goodies they have held back on just so they could debut them at the Tokyo Gameshow. I know I will be keeping up to date on the news from the land of the rising sun. I will try and post what I find out. If you all see something interesting coming out of the show please don't hesitate to post. Also, don't post rumors, back it up with something solid.
