As promised, here's a bunch more Captivate 08 stuff. Let me try to set this whole clownshow up for you guys. Sky Villa on 32nd floor was the lounge area -- where you play games, relax, and .. well, whatever. We also had 3 Penthouses to show games at any time. The Capcom build crew flew in on Monday to get everything ready for the 1st day, Wednesday. Most of Capcom Product Development and our developers came in on Tuesday. Here was the rough schedule (and I might screw this up -- things are a hazy mess to me now...) Thursday - 10-noon - Give three 30-minute Dark Void demo presentations with Ed Fries and Jose Perez to press. Street Fighter 4 and Resident Evil 5 also showed during these days. Presenting with that sort of company is both awesome and also makes you feel like you're trying to make every pass a touchdown just to keep up with the competition. Just really awesome games. SF 4 in an arcade cabinet is magic. Noon - 7pm , Interviews with online and print press. Every 30 minutes, do video interviews. (You can find one of them here ). I don't think I'm exaggerating when I tell you that I had 2 cups of coffee, 2 monster drinks, and about 14 of those stupid, glass Diet Coke bottles that only overprices hotels serve. 8:30p - Dinner at Little Buddha I was so tired I almost put my face into my Spicy Tuna Rolls. 10pm - VIP Lounge at Moon & Playboy Club at Palms. Amazing what a couple drinks can do to help you rally at the end of the night. ...
Anytime
