Is it just me or do some of the chicks come off as looking kind of...mannish? It may just be me though.

Better than the last set of pictures, but still... only a few attractive ones, imho.

But whatever, I'd still talk to them about games. :3 Most of them got pretty rawkin' bods.

Now this girls already look clearly cuter already (mostly). I like the bodypaint girl! (she still wears a slip, though).
Thanks for taking half a dozen pics of her, Brian.

They're still not as cute as many Tgs girls though, especially the Tokimemo girl:

@geekgrrl:

Yeah I much prefer the look of TGS's campaign girls to any of the western shows or even some of the other Asian shows, where they do use professional models. Like I said, the TGS girls are just regular girls, most of whom just happen to be cute.

And after I looked at some of my pics again, some of them *are* actually pretty scantily clad, but I still can't imagine anyone walking around in nothing but paint. It would be a huge controversy. In fact, something similar happened when NHK had their New Year's show last year and one of the acts featured dancers in realistic bodysuits - it made the national news and forced NHK to apologize. They weren't even really naked!

@geekgrrl: Actually, it doesn't bother her at all ... otherwise, she wouldn't have put a bikini pic of her boobs on MySpace -- she kind of hates the stereotypes of gamer/geek girls.

@badasscat: i stand corrected. they really get into it over there, don't they? they had more of a fresh-faced, cute beauty, too. the booth babes in the post look more like extras for beer commercials.

@jayntampa: does she appreciate you describing her as such to a cadre of horny geeks? i'd be a bit pissed if my bf did that.

Is it just me or do almost all of them have that "please god let me find a razor blade on the floor so I can slit my wrists and escape this hell" look behind their eyes?

@zeta21:

Awww. It's sad that you think that way. Besides the sheer amount of videogaming, it's one of the reasons I love going to conventions. Tons of guys to talk to who have the same hobby as me. Can't get any better than that. Next stop PAX then E for All.

@geekgrrl:

Never seen anyone painted like that in Japan. Japanese campaign girls are actually usually a lot more fully dressed than any of these girls. They're just regular college girls, not strippers or even "models".

Not sure if this is gonna work, but I took these photos at TGS 2000 (I'll be back again this year): [www.jwnyc.com]

Don't worry, I find it just as annoying as you do how I named all the files "somethingbabe". But I'm not gonna bother changing it now.

The funny thing is how they're all trained in posing for the cameras. They're there to get their picture taken. I'm not sure if it's the same at other shows like Leipzig. At E3, I know most of the girls saw it like a day off and would just stand around chatting with each other, oblivious to everybody else. At TGS, if you ask to take their picture, they smile and hold up whatever marketing trinket they're assigned to carry. Or they just put on their "cute face", like the Tokimeki Memorial girl did. But they definitely want to make it into publications and blogs; it's part of what they're hired for.

btw I took those photos for the web site I worked for at the time, not just for my own amusement.

At least we can all get our cheap thrills with these booth babes, unlike the bizarre restrictions they placed on E3.

@kcorbo: In their defense, some girls don't photograph that well, and the dark background with harsh flashes is really unflattering for face shots. But whatever. I appreciate the spirit of the booth babery much more than any particular model present.

You really that it is OK to take more than photo so that you have good ones to post. All these girls look like they're probably hot if they weren't caught completely by surprise.

Or you could just finish the effect and make them chew food with their mouth open while you take the pictures.

It just bothers me that most of those girls likely have little to no concern with games at all. I mean c'mon find hot girls who love games if that is what you are advertising. Or, better yet, don't!

They were all butterfaces, except for the second to last girl. Sorry If I don't have low standards like most other geeks.

That's why I carry two paper bags around with me at all times. One for the girl, and one for me if she thinks I need it.

SirCletus — Thu, 23 Aug 2007 11:48:59 MDT

Wow. Is that one fellow (in one of the topless camisole girl pics) actually shooting video from approximately two inches from her nipple? Sadly, this man has probably never seen a real, live girl nipple before, and needs to document the proof. Even more sadly, he's probably got bigger boobs than her.
