Time to come and see us at Capcom offices in London, not just to say hi and eat pizza with us but also to play some games well before release.

So, fancy playing Monster Hunter Tri and/or Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles?

Where: Capcom offices, London (Hammersmith)

When: TBC, most likely Wed 7th and/or Thu 8th Oct 2009, depending on requests

Format: As usual, very informal; no NDAs, just games, pizza and fun. We might split the day as Monster Hunter in the morning and RE The Darkside Chronicles in the afternoon, depending on interest.

Let us know what you think!

I would be there if I'd live in London.

25-08-09, 14:28
Sounds very interesting!

Could well be worth booking a day off work :)

Tenebra
25-08-09, 14:32
Had to add an extra option to the poll - messed it up and couldn't fix it :sadangel:

Dante2014
25-08-09, 14:43
Yay! Count me in for Darkside Chronicles. :D

As for the date, hmm, 7th or 8th is cool, just so long as my employer knows about the time I want off in advance, any sooner and there might be trouble, but from the 7th onward is fine, but I doubt something like this is going to be small, I'm suspecting that dates may be extended to over several days.

This is so exciting. :P

I voted for the weekend option, simply because it would be the only time to come down to London from Bradford. Not sure on train prices though (surely going to be very dear, lol) but yeah, that's it.

Now if I were to pick a game, I think arranging for both would be a bit greedy, although both titles are on the Wii and putting them both up on the same day would kill two birds with one stone and prevent you from having to arrange two events, Ten.

So yah, I'd go for both, although The Darkside Chronicles would be my ultimate preference.

If I could afford this, I would so be there...

What are the chances of getting the RE: DSC disc sent to me? :p

Soop
25-08-09, 15:05
It would be nice to come and meet you; I could bring pie.
The thing I don't like is:
a) London
b) Travelling to London

When do we have until to decide?

Tenebra
25-08-09, 15:16
Depending on the demand, we'll have to put a cut off date to register, Soop. I'd expect towards mid/third week in September.

Weekend Option sounds like a Plan it would be so fun

JDK
25-08-09, 16:04
I'd love to come for both

How many people are you thinking you can fit for this thing ten? Having only the one day makes me think your going to have more than the 8-10 like in the previous two hour sessions?

If so personally i think thats a great idea, having more people and a party style atmosphere where you play and watch others play rarther than a play test style enviroment where you get a telly to yourself for the whole time sounds brill to me.

If I knew my way around London and was sure I could manage being there alone, I woul dconsider flying over.

Really great event though towards the fanbase.

yes please, thank you muchly...
weekend btw

EliteFreq
25-08-09, 19:12
I would but I don't think I can.


In a way I guess it's a good thing. I want both games anyway, but playing them early will mean I wouldn't be able to survive without my fix, much like Lost Planet 2...

shadowrep
25-08-09, 19:50
I'm up for that :D Pizza and games yum!

RagingAvatar
25-08-09, 20:54
Ten, count me in for MH3 - I'm away for the next few weeks - but I don't care when it is - count me in. I'll take time off work and travel down from Manchester.

Woodlandbunny
25-08-09, 21:30
Definitely up for some Darkside Chronicles and pizza! :D

Hey Ten,

You know already I've sparked my interest in it :) would be best if it's a weekend of course, however if it's in October my current contract at ea ends the end of september.

Which means I'd be able to make it if it's a weekday.

But I may be getting another contract (not definate yet tho), then meaning I'd only be able to go on the weekend.

If there's room I'm sure my sister would love to come too (she wouldn't of been able to come before but where she was working was closed down, unless of course she gets another job, I know she'd love to play resi tho)

Jeck
26-08-09, 14:39
I want a Capcom office in italy too :(

itsmyyard
26-08-09, 15:14
I maybe able to come, even though it is a massive 12 hour bus journey EACH WAY! Done it before for xleague though.

Just depends what maybe happening with me next couple months, so cant give anything definite until last minute probably

Sinister
26-08-09, 17:52
wednesday/thursday is good for me, but also is sundays if u do decide to change to weekend, so count me in for any of those, oh and since i already own mhtri i dont mind either resi or monsty both if possible :D

ilumen
26-08-09, 21:39
Hi Tenebra!

I could do both days and make an extra long weekend out of it with some spare holiday I've managed to acquire. In any case, count me in for Monster Hunter 3 :D

CaptainCortez
26-08-09, 23:27
I'd definitely be there for the Darkside Chronicles. It looks pretty awesome (is it Resi 2 remade? Looks it, like more action orientated).

From the video I saw, it looks really cool. :D

Not been much of a monster hunter fan, but then I've only ever played the beginning of monster hunter freedom alone, so haven't witnessed/experienced the multiplayer of it, which is meant to be awesome. :D

Argh, Devil May Cry 5 needs to be announced lol. 4 was awesome, but it didn't have the cool experiences of the original....aka the bosses coming back every time, harder and in higher forms.....was just the same boss fight 4 times over. :p

Anyway, yes my mind is filled with mainly resident evil and devil may cry....though god hand takes up a huge portion of it. ;)

Sooooooo, please Ten, have a DMC5 first to play event, when the game will inevitably be announced. Hehe.

Anyways, yea I might actually be up for both the Resi, and Monster Hunter days, but Resi seems the most awesome to me, so count me in definitely for that.

Will give me an excuse to get you something Ten, for the kind gestures that you have done, and obviously being one of the most awesome mods on the planet, haha.

Thursday 8th is good for me, although if you were to make it a weekend Sunday would be best.

I really want to play both games although Monster Hunter is what I want to see most.

Hey Ten, I could make it for thursday the 8th for Resi if that's a good day for others, too?

If there are too many people going already, no worries, but would be pretty cool to play it. :D

Thursdays are usually free, so yea, it's a defo unless I have a job by then. We shall see. :)

Thank youuuuuuuu.

Hey what do you do at these things? Do you just show up?

mjroche
15-09-09, 21:58
I'd be up for Resident Evil at the weekend, think my work may not let me off to play games during the week ;)

Iceclimber - I'm not sure but I think yeh you just turn up and you play the game, meet other gamers and eat food but I'm sure someone else can clarify.

Tenebra
15-09-09, 22:09

You'd have to tell me you're coming, you can't turn up without signing up and expect to pass security without confirming with me :D

CaptainCortez

Thanks a lot Ten. :)

Would it be cool to bring a friend along by the way? Not sure what friend yet, but the spaces are looking rather empty at the minute, and I think I've forgotten the way to capcom......might know it lol.

Get off at hammersmith, and at one of the exits, go straight out, across the road, then up a bit, then round to the right and then the building is there. :p

Thanks a lot. :D

Confirmed you for Wed for both sessions.

Sinister asked if they could attend both days and I pencilled them in with the understanding that if it got too busy I could only give them one day - given the D'toiders' invasion, that might be the case if they want to try out Tri as well, I'm afraid.

Would it be cool to bring a friend along by the way?
Yes but hurry up, places are being taken quickly! Do you want to attend both RE and MH?

do you mock me with misspelling tenabre??
Sorry, fixed! :p

Well he can't be a very good ninja, if he's lugging a huge sledgehammer about everywhere. You'd hear his footsteps from a mile away, due to how much he'd be weighed down!

Not good for him.

That's a lot of money for a train ticket if that is what it is for! Hope you have fun hunting monsters. :)

Whats the chances of still being able to get involved in this? I am more than tempted to say the least.

RagingAvatar, so far nobody has complained about the fun we inject in these events. Hopefully we won't disappoint you ;)

Sky Dragon, we're heavily overbooked as you can see. We've got 2 places left for RE The Darkside Chronicles. If you're lucky you get to play with me :D

:sadno: I am just going to have to sulk then. As I am not that great a RE fan. I would feel bad robbing the place from someone else. That being said though if they are still free the day before I might sneak in.

Ten? Have I missed the details for this? What's going on?
I have no idea where I'm going - somewhere in London? (I know London quite well so I won't get lost..)

Whoa your fast and I meant like super fast ninja reflexes. You could get the Underground to Hammersmith and then cross forward and keep going left...I'll be watching you play Monster Hunter! : )
