Konami Fails at Its Own Game
The Most Embarrassing E3 Moments Of All Time
Here’s a quick tip to anyone organizing an E3 press conference: When choosing someone to represent your game during a live stage demo, you should definitely make sure that they can actually play the game! That’s exactly what didn’t happen during Konami’s showing off their new Guitar Hero/Rock Band clone, Rock Revolution. If you fancy a session of ear bleeding, then check out this horrible rendition of a horrible rendition of The Ramones’ Blitzkrieg Bob. The guitarist fails out first, quickly followed by the drummer. How does this sort of thing even happen? They must have known that they sucked at the game during rehearsals? Or perhaps it was just stage fright? Normally, I would say that a live demonstration of a game is better than pre-recorded gameplay, but this incident shows that that is perhaps not always the case.
