Many people who received the game early would upload footage to youtube. After a while the video would be deleted from a "third party" copywrite claim. I heard something about namco only allowing still images to be uploaded because they don't want to spoil some things. This doesn't make much sense as there isn't much to spoil. What surprizes me is that they are able to do this. I was pretty sure that when it came to video games all videos belonged to the uploader. I don't remember this happening with any other game. At least I got to see most of the endings before they were removed.

They do that to prevent people from spoiling the storyline/etc, its actually a legit claim they can make.
They've made people who uploaded KH3D on youtube before the US release even remove their videos so ya it can be done.
I do agree with you though , people should have the right to keep it up since they purchased the content and were willing to upload videos of it, its not like their setting up the game for piracy l0l.
The companies who usually have a major problem having their games uploaded on youtube are usually:
-Atari -EA -Ubisoft -Activision -Sony (with Santa Monica)
But of course some companies let them go especially if the video is of a game that is 2+ years old , the only exclusion to this...is Ubisoft since they hate anyone uploading videos of any of their games (especially Assassin's Creed >.>).

What I don't understand then is how they can prevent you from uploading footage of things like practice mode when they let a place like Ign do it the day before.
