E3: 15 minutes to run through all of E3

Jonathan Holmes
12:30 PM on 06.08.2012


So here is my 3rd attempt at trying to see all of the stuff I missed at E3 right before the show closes (here are the 1st and 2nd years' videos if you want). For whatever reason, we got A LOT of requests to shoot another one of these, which was a little awkward. It's like having someone ask you to "tell that exact same joke you told last year, but more funny this time!" I'm not sure we pulled it off, but as long as you guys keep asking us to try, we'll keep doing our best make it happen. 

The biggest difference about this year's video is that it's the first time we've integrated multiple Dtoid fans into the shoot. That's mostly because the amount of people that stopped and asked us for a picture or a quick conversation was way up this year. It was strange and flattering. It only felt right to try to return the strange and flattering favor and include as many of these fans in the video as I could. Talking to people who don't hate me is something I will always make time for, regardless of how many videogames are around me or how many wrap-up videos I'm trying to shoot at the time. Being not hated is awesome.

That said, there is a fine line between being "not hated" and "having a man blow... kisses at you while you're trying to demo Resident Evil 6". I can only hope that my dear friend Jim Sterling learns to find that line before E3 next year. That kind of behavior is very distracting!

Best ending ever.
YES! Best of E3 RIGHT THERE.
Always one of the highlights of the show. Screw Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony; Jonathan Holmes is the winner of every E3.
I love these so much.
You're such a cocktease, Holmes.
The way he shakes his at 0:31 seconds, it's not wonder every post talks about his anus... jeez, Holmes. :)
Someone has been giving Holmes far too much sugar.

Oh Jim when ever will you catch that slippery beige man.
Holmes is the best game of the show period!
I love Destructoid so much. Bravo, Jonathan! There's always next time, Jim!
Been waiting for this video all week :)
"Shakes his ass at 0:31, it's no wonder" stupid phone making me have terrible grammar.
All swag should be SquareEnix swag.
Another great video, please do one for next year too.
This is all I need out of every E3. Who needs videogames when we have Jonathan Holmes?
sweet ending there


Holmes = Best in Show. Always.
That was amazing. Ending was best.
Are you going to be for E3 what Keith Apicary is to PAX?
"It's like having someone ask you to "tell that exact same joke you told last year, but more funny this time!" I'm not sure we pulled it off"

You did pull it off. I wasn't a huge fan of the chest bumping thing, but this is great. More like this, please.
Hahaha awesome as always. The ending put it over the edge.
consistantly my favorite video from every convention. YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!
Jonathan Holmes makes the best videos.

What's the song playing? I really dig it.
Last time I asked for a Swag Hug I ended up getting punched in the throat.
Also, Jim dont be greedy and share that jacket with us.
Little did he know that was Jim dressed as Robin.

That was great, now do the exact same thing next year but more funny this time, we’ll never let you stop!
Awesome! And no need to worry about the 'joke' getting stale, Holmes, because every year there are new things and new people at E3.
Yeah, sorry to tell you Mr Holmes but you kinda suck now... AT KNOWING WHICH OF YOUR E3 VIDEOS IS THE BEST BECAUSE IT'S THIS ONE, SIR! xoxoxox
Once again, you were the absolute highlight of the show, Holmes! Keep up the good work.
Also, it seems you improved your Samus-roll since last year, nice!
Brilliant, makes me wish I was there 10 times more than before.
These are my favorite part of E3. That might sound like a joke, but I'm as serious as cancer.
Awesome video, one of the best things you've ever made. Also, what was that song in the background?
Jim, put.the.jacket.on.eBay! Or just make it a contest prize or something... (just send it to me)
Holmes that was as amazing as ever!
holmes the best ever, jim cameo!!!!
Ah, Chromeo, I just Shazamed it.
The best part is when Holmes runs by and gooses that guy in the belly and he looks at Holmes like he has just been molested. It's brilliant.
never stop doing this please
Year one brought me to dtoid and I never looked back!
Unlike these videos, E3 seems to get worse each year.
Holmes makes E3 fun.
Incredible.
OOps, I mean, not counting Pikmin of course!
Awesome.
yes! been waiting for this all week :D
Cant be that hard Jim, just slip some Rohypnol in his morning coffee. You would be like Cartman and he would be Butters.
I dont ever want this to end Jonathan...

Just hold me tightly and stare into my eyes as the world washes away<3
DAT ENDING.

Well done, sir.
Holmes, you have definitely been my favorite part of E3 this year. What with this video, the chest bumping thing, and everything else so far, I've forgotten if there were any games at E3 this year.
Chromeo AND Johnathan Holmes? You classy fuck.
I enjoyed this.

Mega64: Are you ready for a scare story?

"Submitted for the approval of the Mega64 Midnight Society... my story is called... 'The Legend of Gameface!'" Mega64 has a special "scare story" for y'all this Halloween. At seven and a half minutes in length, it's one of the group's longer videos in quite a while, but I enjoyed every second of it, "Shyamalan twist" ending and all.
