September 22-24 prepare for it…the Tokyo Game Show 2006!  The theme of this year’s show is “New Excitement. New Sensations. A New Generation.” Microsoft will have its keynote before the event actually starts on the Wednesday prior, September 20, which is a new tactic that should bode well.  What can you expect?  What games and demos?  Surely you know that much like E3 2006, Microsoft plans to unleash a variety of content from the Tokyo Game Show including demos, trailers and other content for our Japanese brethren.

Also of note, Japanese consumers will enjoy an entire week of Xbox Live Gold for free and gain access to all the HD content and demos as well.  Will this include North American and European markets?  We shall see. 

But that’s not really the best news about the Tokyo Game Show.  The best news…the absolute most exciting news is that yours truly will be attending the event to bring you all a first hand experience!  That’s right, Microsoft invited me out and I’m bringing TGS 2006 to your eyes and ears folks!  I’ll be in Tokyo attending the show trying to give you all a taste of what the Xbox and Xbox 360 are delivering to the masses across the ocean.

So get ready because I’m going in to do battle in a foreign environment just for you…I’m prepared for the steady diet of McDonald’s and all else just for you.

TGS 2006 is about to get Unscripted!
