But will Microsoft show any new games?

Of course MS will show more games. If they want to make any head room in Japan at all they will have to show games that are tailored to that market, or games that will at least peak the gamers interest. Because if they dont, whats the point of having the show?

I hope we'll be getting some more news about that N.U.D.E. game after this show. The premise of it sounds so cool, and the graphics looked unbelievable!

I seems as though Microsoft aims to do at least four events a year. I would love to make a trip to Japan to go to one of those in the futuree. I hope Microsoft does another Xbox unleased again and give everyone the chance to play Xbox together.

I know that, it's just that I have always wanted to go to Japan and buy several videogames, action figures, game soundtracks, and special edition sets to games.
