As the official show-floor lay-out has been finalized, I thought it would be time for an official TGS thread...

What, is the old classic XB going to be there? Wow, that takes me back. Back to the good old days. Consoles aren't like that anymore. *sigh*

TGS this year is going to be great.

However, I am disdained that there's going to be so many PS3 games on footage, rather than demos on the hardware (playable or not).

I was also expecting MS's booth to be bigger; either that, or I don't understand the scale of the map layout, and Sony's booth is just gigantic :D

Isnt there going to be 27 playable titles at TGS for ps3? And 35 game videos.
Couple that with some good information about the online plan, and launch details, and maybe some other secrets and I think things could go fairly well.
 
Kind of surprising to see Ni-Oh reemerge. I'd figured that had been cancelled along with the movie.

Capcom have also opened their TGS website:

Err a HUGE part of japanese gaming history is Microsoft related... even shares the letter of the modern consoles... MSX

Do tell more , please and MS had very little to do with MSX except for providing BASIC and few other software.
