Event Report : TEKKEN 5 DARK RESURRECTION Event

Sunday, September 30, 2007

It was rainy that day and I arrived at 4PM at the 2nd floor area of SM Mall of Asia. I saw a big crowd on the side area of the mall and Tekken gamers surround the whole event ground, on my way there I saw a guy freaked out and run towards the event. So excited like him, I went first to Netopia to print some documents needed for another event and also I printed a Jin Kazama on a glossy photo paper, an image that I download the other night from its official Japan website.

It was fun to see these gamers and some of them play head to head using the Sony PSP. There's a big screen projecting the arcade game and the tournament. at the middle of the crowd, I saw RG already getting his autograph with Haruki Suzaki, the game designer for Tekke 5 and also with him is Ryuichi Enomoto. And according to RG from his blog, Haruki is here in Manila to promote the upcoming game Tekken 6 coming next year 2008.

The autograph signing was finished and the tournament has started, at first I thought that I wasn't able to get their autograph and also meet and greet them. No chit chats involved
, I just shook their hands and welcomed them at the event. During that meet up I greet James Palabay who is also at the event showing some art portfolios. It was our latest meet up after the Culture Crash events and he joked on me getting bigger hahahaha.

I drop down to Haruki and Ryuichi the Jin photo printed and they signed it and they are smiling and didn't know that Jin is their favorite character, as Victor Velasco told me after the signing.
