This conference was so utterly surreal when it happened. It was like "This can't possibly be happening..." yet it all was... it all did...

Such a magnificent moment of crazy left in video game history.

will the world ever know the context behind this seething hatred? do we even deserve to know?

 

[EdwardTivrusky]

The whole event was a surreal and amazing breath of fresh air. I had an absolute blast watching what seemed to be a company's creatives going "Fuck it, we're bored of the usual format. Let's have a few drinks and wing it." and what should have been a horror show was one of the most memorable conferences i've ever seen and a fantastic thread. Damn, it moved fast!

These are my favourite gifs.

Then they let the whole thing loop for a long while, maybe a day? The thread kept getting bumped as people caught up by watching the looping feed. Happy times.

Or was it unrequited affection?

This conference ruined E3 because you know it will never get better than this.

They can announce Shenmue 3, Half Life 3 and FFVII Remake next year and it still wont top this

Saudades Konami

 

[Rentahamster]

Best conference.

 

[B33]

I've been laughing for the past five minutes at this GIF.

 

[Polioliolio]

I never saw the conference in it's entirety, but I was there (online) for a good chunk of it back in 2010.. so I started watching the link to the full conference.. and right off the bat, technical difficulties... I can barely look.

 

[AuthenticM]

It's unbearable to watch for me.

So bad. Not even funny.

 

[mattiewheels]

Is Tak doing okay lately? I know he was getting cancer treatment a while ago.

[/nofunallowed] He was actually looking at the autocue to his right past the other guy's head.

 

[Polioliolio]

Hahaha.... now they're weighing in the wrestlers for tomorrow's championship battle... slapping each other.. hustling the speaker.

This is too much. Hilarious., I love it.

 

[DOWN]

I had never heard of this before oh my god

Spoiler

... could we roll the trailer please?

 

[omegashockwave]

The greatest conference ever.

 

[Visceir]

Best part was how they just kept replaying it over and over.

 

[C4EMGEN]

I can't believe I missed this. It's absolutely incredible.

 

[Hip Hop]

Amazing show.
Did Konami ever comment on it? lol

 

[LuuKyK]

Can someone link to the live gaf thread for the conference? I cant find it...

 

[Lijik]

No E3 megaton will ever top this for me. The 24 hour loop was incredible

Someone found a stream of the conference shot from a different angle and it contained the revelation he was actually way in the back trying to mind his own business

 

[dripdripsplash]

One thing I like to do, might be weird, is read impressions of different conferences where big announcements or crazy shit happened on GAF.

Anyone got the link for the Konami Press Conference ? I'd love to read peoples responses to all that crazy shit.

I hadn't seen the Otomedius part before...the censorship stars make it look like their nipples are out...the actual video doesn't even look as bad.

 

[tryagainlater]

No matter where I am or what I'm doing, I cannot think of the guy boring a hole into the back of another guy's head with his eyes without laughing. I don't know if video games are art but this conference sure as shit is.

Should've been on the cover of N3II.

Thank you!

 

[SniperHunter]

Hilarious conference

the gaf thread was hilarious as hahaha

BTW Is Tak Fuji ok? I was diagnosed with cancer a couple of years ago :/

 

[Polioliolio]

Someone posted this in the last Konami E3 thread.
So I'm going to toss it right here.

 

[synce]

I guess the thing to take away from that video is that Japanese accents are funny?

 

[Dead]

No shit one of the greatest moments in the industry ever. Full stop. Holy shit.

 

[-x.Red.x-]

I wonder if we are ever going to have an hilarious e3 conference like that again.I died when the random luchadors staring slapping each other and how the speaker was like "aw shit, wat do"

 

[MiamiWesker]

The best part was the endless loop and the gaf cycle of commenting on it. It was a never ending gift of laughter.

 

[MisterHero]

It was funny. Did it have any substance though?

does anyone remember 99 nights or whatever it was called

 

[Lady Siara]

I really enjoyed the first one but the sequel was just okay.

Also, wasn't the Ubisoft laser tag presentation in 2010? Both that and Konami's presentation are my favorites. Why can't we have more E3s like 2010?

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

Love this conference so much! Tak Fujii is a super star! I hope he beats cancer!

I figured there was nothing onerous at play. He was just trying to politely stand out of the way as the other developer delivered his bit...

... But the camera feed everyone has propagated totally makes it look like something else and it's hilarious.

The best thing about that moment was them talking about the horrifying creatures and nightmare world of Silent Hill while he gives the death stare.

 

[Nintendont]

Someone posted a pic of a different angle and he's actually much further back. Just looks hilarious at the angle they filmed it from.

At the 1hr 2min mark, he's not even that close to the guy.

 

[mohsinkhan]

This might be the greatest thing to happen to gaming.

 

[SovereignSnake]

This is real? This happened? Okay world.

 

[Sanctuary]

Still can't decide if it was the best or the worst conference ever. As someone above said, it was surreal.

It's the epitome of "so bad, it's good".

 

[BeforeU]

Legendary conference

 

[Teriyaki]

Same year as ubi laser tag demo, right? Best E 3 ever.

 

[Freddo]

I really wish Konami announced a Suikoden 1-5 Collection, 1&2 in their original pixel glory and 3-5 in HD.

I was rather disappointed when they several years ago announced 3 HD Collections and none of them were regarding Suikoden.

 

[CastleBravo]

Oh my gosh this is hilarious!! First time I've seen it. Those two dudes talking about Silent Hill... I can't stop laughing!
