Blizzard’s booth was rather peculiar, it was not a booth in a traditional sense. They had some rock formation set up like a mountain in an open space. Within the rocks was a LCD screen playing videos of their only game in the show. In a close by area, they had set up a room with several PCs playing the same game:-
World of Warcraft (and its add on, Burning Crusades) - PC

Nokia’s N-Gage game is being displayed on LCD screens hooked to several N-series handphones. Although the games rather simple in gameplay and are pixelated on the LCD screens, they do show promise for games available on handphones.
Some of the games on show are:-
Hooked on: Creatures of the Deep (fishing game)
Asphalt 3: Street Rules (racing game)
Mile High Pinball (pinball game)
Space Impact: Kappa Base (side-scrolling shooter)
EA’s FIFA 08 (football game)

Nintendo had a dual purpose booth, the DS and DS Lite on the left, and Wii on the right. I must apologise as I did not venture into the DS side, but there was a new card based game for the DS that’s very interesting. Will feature that in a post by its own later.
Wii games on show in four “rooms” of their own are:-
Wii Sports
Super Paper Mario
Rayman raving Rabbids
Transformers: The Game
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
