E3 2012 - Photos of Day 1

At long last, I can now post photos of my first day at E3.

Here was the exterior of the LA Convention Center:

Some of you may be familiar with the smartphone/tablet game Cut The Rope. (If not, just know that it's almost as good as Angry Birds.) This wall was covered with Post-It notes:

EA exhibit, including SimCity:

4-player Pac-Man:

Square-Enix, the publishers of Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy:

Square-Enix is also developing the upcoming Hong Kong gangster game, Sleeping Dogs. (By the way, I think the protagonist in the game, who is in the 2nd picture, kind of looks like me, but not as good-looking.) ;-)

Tekken Tag Tournament 2, along with some booth babes for the game:

Where's My Water, a fun game from Disney Interactive for smartphones and tablets:

Metal Gear Rising by Konami and XCOM by Firaxis, two games I'm looking forward to:

The Gree exhibit along with one of their games, Wacky Motors, which is a Mario Kart clone for the iPad. I got to play against the booth babe, and unfortunately, she beat me by a mere cart length:

And finally the dancing artists painting a scene from the upcoming Disney game Epic Mickey 2. I've also uploaded a video I took of the performance:
