Overall Opinion
It's good to see that the 360 is now getting Japanese support from companies like Capcom, Genki, etc. Overall I think it was a pretty succesful showing from Microsoft. Some of the games REALLY need work like Frame City Killer, which IMO looked pretty bad. But the standout titles include the In-Game Trailer of PGR3 and 99 Knights. Thoughts on the show?[/b]
