China's largest expo for computer games and related industries takes place during the last weekend in July, year after year. Last year may have been the last for the women dressed like fantasy anime. Apparently they're cracking down on that this year, and focusing more on video games. There was indeed a lot more professional gaming presence in 2014 compared to previous years -- here's our pictures from that. Expect the usual throngs of superfans, mouth-breathers, cosplayers, curious visitors, and weird uncles. Open to the public Thursday-Sunday, 9am-5pm. Cover price is 70rmb on weekdays and 120rmb on the weekends. It is extremely hot in there -- stay hydrated.
