Here's a video detailing the highlights of my first day at E3. It features quick interviews with the developers of Bionic Commando, Castlevania, Mortal Kombat, and Mega Man 9, and others. I hope you enjoy it. Fully interviews with Castlevania's Igarashi-san and Bionic Commando's Mr. Simon Vicklund coming soon.

That bit at the end was a little frightening. Great video though! May I ask what music you used for the background?

Good job Johathan, concise, funny and retained all the quirks that makes Destructoid what it is.

Must have been a blast meeting the Capcom/Konami people...particularly Koji Igarashi, that guy seems really awesome, what with the whip and everything.

That was fun to watch. Thanks, Jonathan and Andy. :)

I think it's full of hilarious irony about the MX vs. DC rep talking about saturation of fighting game clones. Hehe.

Great job on the video, Yonathan - that was a mad tron dash to the conference, I expected to see neon lines trailing you.

I really enjoyed that. :)

Just one thing, the video codec really makes the names hard to read.

That bit at the end, where Superman got burned by Scorpion... amazing!

That Mega Man 9 shirt is amazing as well. They should just send that picture to your console as part of the download.

@nerpin: No, me too.
For those looking to fix this I have Windows XP SP2 and I'm running IE7 at the moment, but it does the same thing on my other computer with Firefox 3.

Husky wasn't involved? BLASPHEMY. And Dtoid needs to get some lapel mics, so they don't have to shove microphones in people's faces.

Good video. Hope to see more of them.
