Modern Warfare 2 is easily one of the most highly anticipated game of 2009. Everybody was talking about the action-packed snow mission during E3 2009, and all hyped about the multiplayer preview event in Los Angeles. The game is so popular, it will be released in 4 different retail versions: Standard, Hardened, Veteran, and Prestige (the one with the night vision goggles); and also getting a limited edition Xbox360 version with 250GB of hard disk space.
However, there will be one country (or more) which is not going to care about …

If you are a PSP owner and you just so happen to be attending the 2009 Tokyo Game Show, then Kojima Productions has a treat for you! Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker for the PSP will be playable on the show floor. There will probably be a long line of people just waiting to get their hands on the game, so make sure you get there super early! =D However if you do not want to wait in line, then you can always pull out your PSP and download the …

It’s coming back this year! One more time please! Yeah, this year, again, we’ll be having AFA09. The website officially went live yesterday at 2-3pm or so. I was having lessons so I was trying to concentrate on my lesson – but I had this urge to use my phone to check the website myself. LOL.

Various blogs have already posted up photos of Chara Hobby 2009. Glanced through the various photos, some of them definitely caught my eye o.o. I will be doing a number of posts to cover Chara Hobby 2009 as I don’t want to lump all the figurine photos together ;)

Azu-nyan (Azusa) will be getting a Nendoroid release too. Wow, now I have to buy all 5 nendoroids to complete the family? ~_~.

We should all know by now that every event will have their interesting moments, or stories.. I found these information rather interesting and funny at the same time. Over at C76(Comiket 76), let’s forget about the great figurines they have on display, the awesome otaku crowd and concentrate on the moments that happened there ^^”.
By the way, Comiket 76 breaks the attendance record of having 180,000 on Day 1, 10,000 more than last year’s C74.

Summary of C76 Day 1:

Despite it’s the Summer Season in Japan, otakus not giving up. Comiket 76 just started yesterday and the crowds look scary, but I wouldn’t mind all the pushing and stuff just to attend Comiket myself.

A youtube clip from Fuji TV News show about the 1/1 Scale Gundam in Odaiba Park and Comiket.

The Code Geass Cosplayer in the clip is awesome. I know he must be sweating profusely inside, but he’s still cosplaying there… Wow O_O. Would you do that if you’re a cosplayer? Stand in the heat all day long …
