Resident Evil 5 Influencer Event in LA.

February and March saw the release of two of the most anticipated games, Street Fighter IV and Resident Evil 5. Last month, Capcom held the Street Fighter IV launch party in Los Angeles. At the beginning of March, I got to go back to Los Angeles to help out with a Microsoft sponsored influencer event, show casing Resident Evil 5 a week before the game was released.

sThe event was held at a small venue called Soul Assassins Studio owned by famous L.A. artists, Mister Cartoon and Estevan Oriol. Many people showed up to check out the game a week before it was released. Also there was Xbox Live community manager, Larry "Major Nelson" Hyrb who interviewed my boss. For you Xbox owners, you can see the video on Inside Xbox, the episode is titled "Resident Evil 5 Launch." You can even see me briefly in the video right before my boss is filmed on camera.



A couple of pics taken at the event:
