E3 08: Liveblogging the Capcom press conference
by Colette Bennett on 07.15.2008 66 comments

E3 08: Liveblogging the Capcom press conference screenshot

Today has been nothing but press conferences, talk of press conferences and wondering why we spent the morning starving at Nintendo's press conference when we were promised food by unknowning staffers -- they most certainly did not win the press conference war when it came to our empty stomachs.

I'm finally fed, however, soyou'll hear no more complaining from me. I am on my last press conference of the day however, and I have to say as much as I love hearing all the exciting news, I'm glad ... there's only so much official business a girl can stand before she needs a drink.

Hit the jump to check out our live account of all the excitement you can stand at this year's Capcom press conference. Pew pew pew!

Colette Bennet- Now Stephen is bringing out a giant inflatable phallus with the words "Lost Planet" printed on the side.

Colette Bennet- With the help of Infanue, Stephen now appears to be masturbating the gigantic throbbing member all over the unsuspecting crowd. I guess that's what the complimentary Lost Planet umbrellas were for.

Apparently all of the game companies forgot that E3 is about gaming. Instead we have Capcom talking about a movie; Microsoft talking about Netflix and Mii$; Sony talking about downloadable movies and TV shows; and Nintendo shilling smiles. All fail.

yes do what she says and go read tomopop. (personal plug) i have two new awesome things to share with you there that maybe are even better then lost planet movies, even though that should be pretty fucking rad due to the radness of lost planet itself :D

I just really really really hope that the lost Planet movie (at worst) recoups the investment. If it does really well then I fear that they might start trying to make more movies and that might detract from their games. If it does too badly then they'll have to pull a Squeenix and Squaresoft was most of my gaming life. If Capcom goes down in the same move I very probably will actually cry in real life.
