Interesting sightings
Playable Devil May Cry 4 for the PS3, Sonic the Hedgehog & Lost Planet: Extreme Condition for the Xbox 360 available at Xbox 360 and PS3 kiosks in Yodabashi Camera in Akihabara. I got to play DMC4 and Lost Planet there and makes me want to freeze myself like Cartman from South Park because I can't wait for them to be released! I wasn't able to play the games when I attended Tokyo Game Show '06 but I'm happy now that I get to play both games without lining up for an hour. Surprisingly, there were a lot of people just observing other people playing the games but no one's eager to snatch the controller to play it when the previous person had finished the demo. Expect the Devil May Cry 4 demo to be downloadable from Playstation Store soon.

There were some really amazing Votoms diorama customs on display at Kotobukiya Store as seen here, and here. Check out my picture gallery for more shots of the customs.
