Ueda Kana on Halo 3 (three-quarter way update)

Posted by houkoholic on Monday, March 3rd, 2008 at 05:14

Really busy with work and because I have a short trip coming up I won’t be able to do all the video editing until after the 13th, so I’m posting an intermediate clip for the time being. Also it looks like a lot of people don’t have a 360 and/or Halo 3 so they can’t download the replays. As I don’t have a capture card/video recorder so I’ll have to record the footage the ghetto way - film the replays on the TV, and well that’ll have to wait till I get back as well.

Anyway about the clip - currently it’s mostly the talk in the lobby before the game, so if you don’t understand Japanese and/or just want to see some action, jump to the 6 minute mark.

Ueda Kana on Halo 3 (intermediate update)

I’m still working on getting the videos (I’m getting there). But in the mean time for those with a 360 as well as a copy of Halo 3, you can go to bungie.net and download either the entire replay clip of my match that day, or selected shorts I’ve made, to your own Xbox. Ueda Kana was playing as player “LIVE Park 10″ so you can keep track on what she was doing. You won’t get the voices, but at least you can see how she plays - she made a few nice sniper kills as well as a couple of classic Halo beatdowns.

BTW don’t look at how I play, I suck. :P

More details (and possibly video) later.

But do let me say this first - she definitely knows how to play.

Play against Ueda Kana in Halo3, on Xbox Live

Ueda Kana is another one of those seiyuu widely known as a heavy gamer. She’s not just hardcore, but HARDCORE. For starters, she has a Xbox 360 [insert Xbox 360 epic failure in Japan comment here], what’s more, she plays Halo [insert all Japanese hates FPS comment here]. She has talked about her obsession with Halo 3 in her blog numerous times. Her obsession goes as far as forgoing sleep on work days to the point of messing up her breakfast, 16 hour marathons, as well as organising numerous gaming sessions with her seiyuu friends (apparently Shimizu Ai is quite a sniper according to Ueda Kana). Well it seems that her unhealthy obsession has gotten noticed by Microsoft.

This coming Saturday (23rd), between 1pm to 3pm Japan time, there’s a special event on Xbox Live where you can have a chance to go head-to-head against Ueda Kana in Halo 3 online multiplayer, and even chat with her for abit. To have a chance to play against her, all you need to do is send a friend request to either gamer tag “LIVE Park 09″ or “LIVE Park 10″ - anyone applying to both tags will be disqualified - and on that day if your request is accepted that means you’ve got in, and you will then be randomly invited to party games during that time. I’m not sure if the people at Microsoft will be bastards enough to apply any sort of geographical and account filtering, but it won’t hurt to give it a shot even if you live outside of Japan.

Guess it’s time for me to fire up a bit of Halo too.
