Sony Computer Entertainment President Kazuo Hirai will do the honors of opening this year's Tokyo Game Show with an address titled "The Expanding PlayStation World, Business Strategy For New Growth."

This marks the first time that the man more commonly known as "Kaz" will do a keynote for one of the world's biggest gaming events. Ken Kutaragi, who has already left the Sony fold, did the previous keynote for the consumer electronics giant.

Sony, under Kutaragi's rule, has had a reputation for dropping big news at keynotes in past events. One can only speculate what Hirai has in store in his first TGS outing as SCE's top officer.
