Sony's first day TGS trailer roundup News

PlayStation 3 PSP News by Robert Purchese

9 October, 2008

Sony has unleashed its first batch of Tokyo Game Show trailers. And we thought we'd round them up for you.

New footage for PSP headline acts Patapon 2 (two trailers) and Resistance: Retribution leads the charge, but those are games we know about, so let's move on.

On to Derby Time Online, a PS3 horse racing game that has little lifestyle jockeys with big heads, a bit like those Xbox 360 Avatars. We didn't understand most of the text in the trailer, but one word we did understand was "bet".

Or there's Dress, a PSN game where you clothe avatars in real-word fashion brands. The sponsorship even goes as far as themed platform levels.

Supposedly, this has nothing to do with PS Home, and we see little point in bothering if that's the case. Then again we don't wear clothes.

Sony also had a couple of Japan Studio-developed detective games for PSP to show: Diamond and the Sound of a Gunshot, and Enkaku. Both are drawn in a cartoon anime style and are heavily story-based.

All that's left is Mainichi. This looks to be some sort of news channel featuring Neku the Japanese PlayStation cat. Looks rubbish, and will probably never appear here anyway.

"When will Sony's TGS press event take place?"

It won't. They apparently couldn't be bothered. Well, at least they showed up, unlike Nintendo. Though, TBH, there's no way N could sell more Wii's by showing up so it would just be a waste of time and effort.

Yeah the press event was like half an hour and it was the bunch of PSP stuff that EG has written about. There is another presentation tomorrow specifically for Level 5 and WKS but other than that there doesn't seem to be anything else.

Wait, do these count towards the "11 unannounced PS3 games and 3 PSP games" they were talking about? Not quite the shuddering gamegasm some were expecting then.

DRESS! So awesome.

If that was on Wii it would sell bucketloads no doubt.

I see a Home virtual Nikestore coming up though.

I hope Diamond and the Sound of a Gunshot gets a European release. The title alone makes it sound pretty awesome :)
