What is it? PROOF that Konami had the best press conference and won E3 2010. This short clip sums it all up nicely. Sure, the real-life show choir coming out to perform Queen's "Somebody to Love" in Karaoke Revolution: Glee was fabulous in its own right, and the technical issues were good for a laugh or twelve.
But this. This part was easily the highlight. Prepare to be amazed. Matt Razak said it best: "This is like the Deadly Premonition of press conferences." Also, use YouTube's transcribe audio feature (click the CC button) on your next viewing of the video (thanks, king kong five).
Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied: "bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

lol this guy Tak Fuji is comedy gold!!! XDDDDD ONE MILLION TROOPS. This guy is such a character. Yes Konami you never cease to fail me. I can't stop laughing he's so great. Naoki is so hard to understand I love it. I need Dance masters because I'm a huge sucker of dance games that can be like Para para, Ouendan, and Happy dance collection in one.
I LOVE NAOKI as he made a lot of bemani songs, I lols at him for his mispronunciation of Konami so much love for him.
These guys were great. But I HIGHLY recommend watching Russel Simmons' speech that ran at the beginning of the show. It's essentially the James Cameron speech from last year's E3 with a hip-hop edge.
So THIS is why so many English-speaking Japanese developers still use translators!!! Thank god I am not a journalist because I would have been escorted out of there, the laughter would be so loud. And all this time I was wondering why Konami's conference wasn't televised.
There is an interesting Marxist subtext revealed when transcribing is turned on: "the innocent victims of the only people that and thanking the efficient like that the banks and does it" followed by "we are always trying to incorporate the Cuban revolution." I'm sure all this ties back to some conspiracy about "the aids virus" and the "people not coming to dinner enough yesterday." Fascinating.
