https://games.yahoo.com/news/unique-...190056943.htmlSHANGHAI — China’s rise as a gaming nation was best captured at ChinaJoy, the huge expo that drew more than 250,000 attendees to more than 100,000 square meters of exhibit space in Shanghai. The event was a huge spectacle, but it bore little resemblance to the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), the big game-business showcase that drew 48,000 people to Los Angeles in June.
Rather, ChinaJoy was a beast of another kind. The obvious difference is that ChinaJoy caters to consumers rather than game-industry people.
Nearly every booth had stages — and not for showing off games. They were for the show girls, or booth babes, in skimpy costumes. In the back of the booths or off to the side, you could find demos of the games. But the mostly male audience was there to take pictures of the women and to get free swag.
The women are gorgeous at least.
