It’s that time of the year again! Comic-Con 2008 has started in full swing today [after yesterday's sneak peek] and is expected to bring in about 125,000 people to the San Diego Convention Center in California. This event is scheduled until Sunday, July 27, and registration has closed - That’s the second year in a row that Comic-Con has been SOLD OUT! Amazingly enough, Comic-Con had a wait list of 300 exhibitors that couldn’t land a booth in the event. Second-hand ticket prices have soared and are difficult to find, but you can still try your luck on San Diego’s Craigslist Ticket Sales.
There will be many major announcements that will be coming up at Comic-Con for future video game releases. While some are kept secret, we were able to catch wind of a few things that’ll be going down for this extravaganza.
Will Wright just completed a discussion and demonstration of his latest video game, SPORE, which is scheduled to release on September 7. And later today, Capcom will deliver a sneak peek of Street Fighter IV, which will feature both old and new characters. If you’re lucky enough to go today, you still have time to catch the world premier of the demo, Afro Samurai: Resurrection, which is rumored to release sometime in the fall of 2008. You can also be one of the first people to battle in Socom: Confrontation in the Sony booth TODAY AND TOMORROW ONLY! MotorStorm: Pacific Rift will take its place on SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. Lastly, Sony has announced that you will have a chance to play LittleBigPlanet, Buzz! Quiz TV, and SingStar - so make sure you make it over to Comic-Con! If you want to hear about more amazing demos and releases, stay tuned to ThePS3Guide for more major announcements.
