Publisher's note:
Destructoid is launching our own embedded player in the next coming months, and with that we'll be bringing you a lot more exclusive video content of gameplay, interviews, and hands-on impressions from our Dtoid editors as well as Dtoid Community videos. We've promoted Greybush as our VP of all things video (and also cocks), so check out his first video and let us know what you think of the format and what you'd like to see more of in the future! -Niero
Not Ron's note:
I am an invisible black woman trapped in a skinny white man's body. But more importantly, Destructoid has access to basically every XBLA game coming in the next 3 months, like this video about Omega 5 from Hudson / Natsume due out this Winter. With the permission of a few PR folks (thank you, you know who you are) we can bring you hands on impressions of some unreleased games. Soon we can in fact serve this video in HD but this is just an example of what we're up to. Thanks to everyone that already provided feedback when we ran it on the cblogs.
Granted, we obviously can't show too much of Omega 5 at the risk of giving away some of the surprises or spoilers. However, we can answer some basic questions and release a follow-up post with the responses. So check out the video and let us know what you think!

Ronnie? Is that you on the Internets?

A game on Live Arcade actually worth buying is nice for a change.
I might suggest taping the gameplay, then narrating it afterwards so you don't end up distracting yourself. I dig it a lot though, and would be totally into seeing more.
Seriously though, if you do this weekly, or even every other week, it would help orientate me with the latest XBLA games.
About the only important thing I could think to change is what Darkside said about rehearsing your presentation a bit with some pre-shot gameplay, but I personally like the more organic talk-as-you-go approach. You sounded at least as good as Jade Raymond explaining what was going on in Assassin's Creed demos. Probably better.
Bouncing lasers and background things coming into actual gameplay just sold me on this. It does seem like there's a lot of trial and error, like when the big robot just jumps into view with no way to evade it. But since it doesn't insta-kill you, that doesn't seem like a big problem.
Keep up this stuff! Maybe if you have all XBLA games, you could ask the community which game they'd want to see in action the most?
Btw, your voice is okay. More please. :o)
in the game do you have any super movies? stuff you gotta charge up?
Is it better than Boom Boom Rocket? If not, on a scale of 1 to Boom Boom Rocket, where does it stand?
My only other question which isn't answered by the vid is how long does the single player game last? i don't want to spend my hard earned MS points on a half-hour game.
Like I said before, I like the commentary over gameplay vid
get a friend and try out the coop.
Serial, this is a good idea, as I'd only thought this was an aegis wing with people instead of ships game. After watching the footage of the game play I'm going to pick it up. Mix some post-recorded audio with some shoot from the hip type stuff, and you should have some win.
Curios as to the difficulty level of this game.
Any chance we could get you to post all of the games that you so we can start thinking of questions?
