It's that time of year again. We've sent Gerald and Li off to the Land of the Rising Sun for trips to Shibuya, Akihabara and... oh yeah, the Tokyo Game Show! It looks like the stakes are even higher this year, as Nintendo has already dropped Wii bombshells, Microsoft vies for a bigger share of the Japanese gaming market, and Sony has their final showing of the PS3 prior to its November launch in Japan and North America. And that's not even counting the third-party lineups.
GameSpy is working around the clock to deliver the best news, previews, movies and screens from Japan as the action starts. Stick around for the latest and greatest updates!
