What motivates an otherwise normal person to dress up as a game character? What’s the latest tech hitting the streets of Japan? What are the biggest games coming out of this year’s Tokyo Game Show? And what exactly can you find in a typical Japanese vending machine? All these answers and more will be answered in KozPlay, an exclusive GameSpot AU video series featuring community manager James Kozanecki. This multipart series will take a lighthearted look at Japanese culture as James--a first-time visitor to Japan--explores gaming, technology, and the people of one of the world’s most advanced nations. So what has Koz seen in Tokyo? Check out the videos below, and keep coming back for more KozPlay episodes soon!

Episode One: Super Potato


Koz checks out an awesome multilevel retro games store called Super Potato, hidden away in one of the alley markets in Akihabara.

Episode Two: Games of the Tokyo Game Show


The best way to enjoy TGS was by playing some games. Koz roams the show floor checking out some of the big titles at TGS and bumps into a couple of friends along the way.

Episode Three: Cosplay at the Tokyo Game Show


TGS isn't just about the games; join Koz as he speaks to some of the people at Cosplay Alley and finds out a bit about the person behind the costume.
