First Footage of The Last Remnant Tonight on Game Head on SpikeTV

satterfield · (06-01-2007, 06:32 PM)

Just wanted to give everyone a heads-up that the first-ever footage of Square-Enix's The Last Remnant will be on Game Head tonight on SpikeTV at 1AM. When we cut the package together we tried to squeeze in every second of the game that we could. Enjoy!

Wario64 · (06-01-2007, 06:49 PM)

I hope this isn't one of those "here's a few seconds of first footage, watch the rest online at GT"

Nope, we're giving you everything we've got on this one. We're not even allowed to put this stuff online per Square-Enix's no video on the web policy. It's broadcast only. Get some popcorn, the game is insane.

Maybe if we were in Europe we could get away with stuff like that. :)

You don't get away with that in Europe either. Believe me, I learned it the hard way.

I'm with Odysseus on this one. ALL THE WAY....Don't like 20 different things being cut up into little pieces and spread over an entire show.

Oddyseus for Game Head president!

distantmantra · (06-01-2007, 08:29 PM)

I'll be DVRing this tonight, and then watching the important parts tomorrow afternoon.

So when it goes up on GT, the footage will be cut?

robertsan21 · (06-01-2007, 08:39 PM)

someone record it and put it on stage6 or youtube

I agree. Game Head usually has good content, but the way the content is delivered leaves much to be desired. It's designed for ADD kids on crack.

Zonar · (06-01-2007, 09:16 PM)

Thanks for the heads up.

SPEA · (06-01-2007, 10:16 PM)

Just DVRed it. Thanks

Set to record every ep, but this is good news!

Is this a joke, duck, or is this for real?

If real, **** S-E in the anus 8 times!

I don't know why S-E even bothers to do this in this internet youtube-age.

Youtube is slowly but surely becoming a joke. They were the innovators so I guess they deserve the verb treatment, but I wouldn't be surprised if anything from the show is removed fairly quickly due to "copyright infringement". I wanted to see a trailer for Disney's animated/live-action movie Enchanted but youtube had them all removed. WTF happened to fair use?

brandonh83 · (06-01-2007, 10:56 PM)

Thanks for the heads-up.

Hunahan · (06-01-2007, 10:58 PM)

Why does everyone always ask for youtube.

Rip this sucker in decent resolution and rapidshare it. I'd like to see some details, people!

ToyMachine228 · (06-01-2007, 10:59 PM)

Just saw this for the first time in an issue of Game Informer I got for free for trading in games at EB. Looks decent. More interesting than Final Fantasy games if you ask me. Final Fantasy has become generic to me.

Fair use is alive and well. Perhaps your definition of "fair use", which apparently is "I get to do anything I want with anything, forever" is a little off.

I support his definition of fair use. How do we elect him president of the fair use committee?

inthezone · (06-01-2007, 11:16 PM)

Somebody better Youtube it by the time I wake up tomorrow! :)

Soooo showing a movie trailer isn't fair use of a movie? Clips of video game gameplay isn't fair use?

I'm fairly sure fair use has nothing to do with Disney not wanting the Enchanted trailer out in public. The trailer presumably got leaked (it's not up on Disney's own website), Disney cracked down on it, hence why it's not out there on the Net (well, there's probably a Rapidshare/Megaupload/whatever link out there they haven't caught but probably not). That's got nothing to do with fair use of the footage; it's about a publicity campaign being screwed up a little and Disney taking steps to remove it.

Squenix and SpikeTV probably have an exclusive agreement for the footage to be shown exclusively on telly; getting the word out raises publicity for SpikeTV, and potentially gets more people interest in The Last Remnant. If the footage goes out all over the Net, why would anyone bother watching Game Head? Info getting leaked spoils their announcements and marketing. Again, it's publicity, not fair use; if the footage goes up without Squenix's permission, then they can pull it for unauthorised usage.

The two things you describe do not fall under "fair use," they fall under the heading of "taking something someone else owns and putting it on the Internet without their permission."

After I pointed this out, your response was to state your same incorrect argument again in an identical manner, taking us right back to where we started.

Blim and I were just joking around.

And the simple answer to the debate is that Square-Enix doesn't want video of this game online, and it holds the ownership of the video. As for why they wouldn't want to show the game off in HD instead of letting crappy user videos capped from a DVR circulate around really isn't my place, or anyone else's, to ask. It's just the way it is. When you're dealing with a company's IP, they make the rules. We just have to play by them.
