Tecmo's booth sucks this year

Not only did they have those cheezy models posing very cheezily, there were some E3 workers being dicks and telling everyone to move and had a very bad attitude. The only problem was that the monitors were position to where we were standing and there was really no where else to stand. Damn them all.

Uh.. they have to tell them to move. Do you realize how hard it is to walk in the place by itself.. not to mention when a bunch of men are drooling over the models standing in the middle of the way?

On that note.. this booth has remained the same for the past few years. same format. big stage with hot chicks being shown off.

Like any show at E3, either get there earlier so you get a good spot to stand/sit or just try not to crowd the walk area.

Yeah, but the thing is, even if you're there early, you still won't get a good spot. And for the record, I wasn't trying to look at the damn chicks I was trying to look at the Ninja Gaiden trailer. If they don't want people to crowd by their booth, then don't put widescreen monitors right out side their boot so that everyone can see. I mean, what's the point of putting a screen when you can't even stand there to watch it?? That's just dumb in my opinion. The Konami booth was way more crowded during the Metal Gear Solid 3 trailers and nobody was there to make people leave. Just plain stupid IMO.

This actually happened to me today for the exact same reason (wanted to see the Ninja Gaiden trailer more closely). I didn't think much of it though. I don't think those guys are trying to be dicks. OTOH, there was a pretty girl at another booth nearby who wouldn't let me take her picture. I was pretty upset about that.

Aren't they there to have their pictures taken?

Or was it just a spectator?

She definitely worked there. She wasn't dressed up in a costume or in skimpy clothes though (tight t-shirt and pants). From the way she was talking to other people, she looked like she knew what she was promoting. Maybe she wasn't there to be a booth babe, but an actual vendor. She was damn hot though.

yea pretty much the booth's stayed at the same place as last year. It got pretty crowded during the tecmo fashion/costume show and bikini show. its annoying when your walking in the isle and then people just friken stop in front of you and black tje flow of traffic.

The funny thing was, the E3 workers were telling me to keep walking and the Tecmo worker just told me to move back. I moved back and the E3 workers kept on telling me to keep moving. Man that really pissed me off. After that I just said fack it and I just walked alway. Also, the E3 workers don't really have that nice of an attitude when they're telling you to move. I remember the first day of the show when it ended, some lady just blasted on the broadcasting mic saying "Ok the show has ended. Go home!" and it was so damn loud and rude I thought. Some professionalism. Sheesh.

Watching Mochi dance was fairly entertaining. Oh and the girls too. But gaming wise it was pretty disappointing. No new DOA info, no playable Ninja Gaiden. Just Monster Rancher :\.

No live DOA Volleyball match, eh? What a disappointment.
