Forums - Gaming - Top 5 Awkward moments at E3 2010

1. Konami’s WTF Press Conference




I’ve got to give them credit, it takes a lot of guts to give a press conference in anything but your native language. Still, that doesn’t make it any easier to watch. Konami Producer Tak Fuji stumbles through an extremely hard to understand intro, only to pass it off to Thomas Nagano and Naoki Maeda for an awkward slam dunk. Worst. Alley-oop. Ever. 

2. Controller Issues During Miyamoto’s Zelda Demo




I get it, an entire room full of active mobile devices probably isn’t the best thing for a wireless gaming demonstration. And in Nintendo’s defense, the Wii was mostly responsive during the first half of their “Skyward Sword” demo. But the second half, particularly any moment involving Link’s bow and arrow, was tough to sit through. There are few things stranger than watching someone pitch their “revolutionary” product, only to have it fail in front of a huge live audience. 

3. XBox 360 Slim Devours Destructoid Editor’s Disc




Don’t get me wrong, I’m psyched about the new 360 Slim. It’s smaller, quieter, and the same price tag as the current Xbox. But like the original 360 before it, the Slim damages games if you move the system while playing. I’m sorry, did I say “damage games?” I meant rape them into oblivion. The Slim isn’t content with merely ruining this copy of Alan Wake, it devour its soul. 

4. Dance Central Demonstration Is The Whitest Thing Ever




Think about what a “Project Director” for a videogame would dance like. Do you have an image in your head? Play through it for about 2 minutes. Now watch the video. Uncanny.

5. Olivia Munn’s Interview With David Jaffe




When you’re interviewing a game designer, you’ll usually talk about…Oh, I don’t know…The game he’s developing. Olivia Munn grills a visibly frustrated David Jaffe, who had just announced a new Twisted Metal game, on circumcision and Daewoos. Note to future Twisted Metal interviewers: If you’re going to talk about foreskin, it better be Sweet Tooth’s.

I can't watch the Konami Conference thing... I end up laughing like a retard and hiding my face in embarassment..I don't know why...

And Jaffe + Munn thing is hilarious...



Around the Network

Because of the Twisted Metal showing, David Jaffe is a confirmed liar. He says he's circumcised? We need to see the evidence.



How did the Dance Central video not make #2 at least. That was horrible.

On n4g

Olivia: Are you circumcised?

Jaffe: I don't comment on rumors or speculation but I am willing to give you a sneak peek behind closed doors.



Where is Sony showing COMMERCIALS of their OWN products at their OWN conference?

 

What about Sony advertising themselves at their OWN CONFERENCE? 

To me that shit was awkward.  Other than that, good list of top 5.

They are not on the list.  Unlike the top 5 things on this list, they were good.



Must've been pretty awkard for Miyamoto on stage live demoing... Same goes for Dance Central Dude.
