" Zelda Phantom Hourglass, I loved that game, but returning to the main temple over and over was pretty annoying."

I have it preordered, so I guess I'm getting a banana pouch. Neat.

   New trailer for DKCR featuring Rambi.

400 microsoft points and I bite. I loved me some Hydro Thunder.

I think it was not worth the amount of man hours that went into it. I mean, in that time the folk involved could've shot 1 or 2 Quick Looks, some goofy 10 minute video for Tested, and possibly some sort  of Fall Television Preview for Screened. Basically, while it was decent, it wasn't nearly worth the time it was given. Also, the chat was useless in its current form, as the 120 cooldown makes conversation impossible, making it only good for questions and references, which just get washed away real fast.  
 
I'd suggest doubling the length of the feature and making each half hour particular to each site. Say, 15 minutes podcast preview time and 15 minutes Q and A with that question queue idea implemented.  I think this would have several advantages, the main one being that viewers would feel secure in knowing when to show up for the parts of the show they like and feel secure in not watching say, Comic Vine guys read a comic book. While that might seem counterintuitive, I think a viewer that is only watching because he is afraid of missing a good bit is an unhappy viewer, and unhappy viewers is the last thing you want.

Eventually, at the same point, a lot of the HD videos end up looking something like this. Chrome 6 beta.

Mother 3. The "3 years later" transition after the first chapter or so. Such an amazing revelation there.

This sounds like a really solid line up for Japan. I hope they're into it, because it sounds perfect for them.
