CES 2010's Gaming Showcase to have more showcase, not much more gaming

by JC Fletcher { Oct 26th 2009 at 8:00PM }

From the on-site report of last year's Gaming Showcase at the Consumer Electronics Show, it wouldn't take anything more than two video games to dramatically expand upon what was previously available in the dedicated games area. And despite the Consumer Electronics Organization' announcement of double the floor space for the Showcase, only one game is named specifically as a feature: Lego Universe.

The PC Gaming Alliance will be there, and Microsoft and Sony should be showing games in their own respective areas, but the exhibitor list for the Gaming Showcase focuses almost entirely on peripherals, middleware, hardware, and other things that aren't games. But there will be a lot of space for you to try out Wii controller shells, DDR mats and chairs with speakers in them!

CES takes place in Las Vegas from January 7-10 and, as always, Joystiq will be reporting from there with the latest, breaking news on games you control with your mind.

That looks kinda interesting, as far as lego video games have gone.

Haven't seen much from the PC Game Alliance, not sure if they are even that relevant, shame Activision left them, shows how much they care about PC gaming as with all the shit they've done with Modern Warfare 2.

Well isn't Epic the first company that started babbling about the PC game alliance? Then later, they said they didn't intend to port Gears 2 to the PC. (I'd easily buy Gears 2 for the PC if it had proper dedicated server support)

I will also gladly purchase Gears 2 for the PC! Come on Epic and MS you fuckers!

When I first saw this I immediately thought of TF2.
