Ono-san

Q：What was your favorite part of the SCEA E3 Press Conference 2012?

Ono：Naughty Dog's THE LAST OF US's graphics were so real, and the AI of the little girl was extremely impressive.

The feeling of frustration and tension were just so intense. I wanted to just yell out to all the Naughty Dog development staff.

I realized that there are places outside of Japan that can make games look that good on current-gen hardware.

I was also surprised with the disrespectful conduct and lack of common sense of Mr. Harada who got up to go to the bathroom during SCE CEO Andrew House's speech.Andy! I saw you looking in our direction, but that was not one of our Capcom employees!

The one who got up to take a leak was Harada from BANDAI NAMCO!! Just to set everyone straight.

Q：What was your favorite game from the conference?

Ono：As I just noted, Naughty Dog's THE LAST OF US looks like a must have title.

Book of Spells, which was developed by Sony and J.K. Rowling, looks like one that you won't want to miss.

As a new "toy", it looks like the creator of Harry Potter is breaking into new territories on the PS3.

Q：The actual E3 expo starts tomorrow. What are your expectations?

Ono：I hope that Biohazard 6 gets BEST OF SHOW, and everyone at Capcom gets a bonus!

But seriously, at this year's E3, players can get a chance to test out cross matching between the PS3 and PSVita versions of Street Fighter X Tekken.

  I hope that a lot of players will get a chance to check this out.

Harada-san

Q：What was your favorite part of the SCEA E3 Press Conference 2012?

Harada：My favorite parts were when Mr. Ono fell asleep before the conference, and when SCE CEO Andrew House stared at me when I tried to get up to go to the bathroom. I was surprised by how wide Andrew's field of vision is.

But joking aside, I was amazed with the new cross play features and PS1 Classics on the Vita.

The AR stuff surprised me as well.

  I myself am a pretty conservative core gamer, so I was really impressed with the awesome graphic quality and facial animations of THE LAST OF US and BEYOND TWO SOULS!

Q：What was your favorite game from the conference?

Harada：THE LAST OF US was truly fitting for the end of the conference.

Also, this is just a personal hobby, but I have been doing boat races for over 20 years, so I was really attracted to the ship battles in Assassin's Creed 3. I can't get that scene out of my head.

Q：The actual E3 expo starts tomorrow. What are your expectations?

Harada：Every year I wish the same thing. I want the show to become something that more game fans and normal people will take interest in.

Also, I want to rightly promote my own game, Tekken, at the show.
