Tokyo Game Show: Day 01 02?

 Side note, I'm still a little confused on what TGS day it is, different timezones are weird. We need swatch time QUICK! 

TGS is on another day, and another day means more announcements. There were some more big announcements this day as well, but the pre show reveals will be hard to top.

The Last Guardian

Team Ico have a great track record for making great unique games. Their first game is the princess saving simulator Ico, and the second being the massive monster hunting game Shadow of the Colossus. From what they've released so far of The Last Guardian it seems like Team Ico is mixing the two styles together into one great looking game.

AWW!!!
AWW!!!

With the release of the new trailer it shows some more light-hearted aspects of the The Last Guardian, also finally something that looks like gameplay. The trailer starts off with our little man sneaking on top of the giant beast, and playfully waking it up. This is the whole tone of the trailer, very fanciful, and adorable! A lot of teamwork between the hero and the creature shows off some of the puzzle solving elements and just how attached the two character are to each other. Some combat was also shown but not too much, the dog-thing and the boy defeating some living suits of armour.

I know it's terrible to say but I can only think of one way for this game to end, and that is with one of the two characters dying. I know it's terrible to say! But  
 


   
  

Yakuza 5: The End

Even though Yakuza 4 is set to release in 2011 here in North America, in Japan they're already announcing their 5th game. The Yakuza series has been known for being a little wacky with some of the side stuff you're able to do, but with Yakuza 5 they might have gone off the deep end. Zombies are the main focus of the new Yakuza game, you heard me right; zombies.

Everyone knows Japanese zombies are the deadliest

In 2008 Ryu ga Gotoku Kenzan or Yakuza Kenzan came out in Japan as a spin off to the Yakuza series set in the samurai days. Though this game wasn't numbered and this new Yakuza game is. So I don't know if it will actually be a continuation of Yakuza 4, but I think that would be too crazy even for Japan.

In a recent Kotaku article they interview the producer of the game, Masayoshi Kikuchi, he and the team wants to branch out and make new experiences with the Yakuza franchise. And that they don't want to stop making the Yakuza franchise.

In the trailer we find Haruka, the girl our hero Kazuma Kiryu rescued in the first game captured again by an unknown assailant. Then everything pans out to see that Kamurocho has been destroyed taken over by zombies. It doesn't show any gameplay but we eventually see Kazuma and his three friends carrying guns looking like they're going to take back Kamurocho. Left 4 Yakuza? Am I right, am I right!   ... I'm sorry.
