Smile How does picking segments work?

Hey Tommy / Forum.

My question en-lies in how you guys choose segments for specific shows. With the Cross-Canada Tour a mere 4 months away, I am guessing segments are getting put together for shows. Having already made my one request, I think a cool question to ask would be how you pick your segments?

I'm sure it is in large-part due to the fact that you want to give people who have never seen a VGL show the proper experience, while giving second or more viewers a new experience (which must be super hard considering you have 90 segments, and about 15 you can use in final).

Seeing as how last year in Vancouver was a complete new crowd, and the show was built towards older fans - the show was percieved by many people to not nearly as good as they thought, despite trying something new (which the other 20 people like me, highly appreciated ).

What percentage for you makes the show easiest to oraganize?

A) Everybody in the audience has never been to a VGL show
B) Everybody in the audience has been to a VGL show
C) Half the audience has been to a VGL (and half hasn't)

I'd figure it would be C, considering you have classic segments which you can use classic segments (ranging from Final Fantasy VII: One Winged Angel, Castlevenia, Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross, Megaman, Shadow of the Colossus, The Legend of Zelda) to less common segments (ranging from Metroid, Silent Hill 2, Starcraft II, Medal of Honor *which would be awesome to see in Vancouver this year, might I add*), and pick and choose segments that long time fans will like to see again, and one that newer folks will also enjoy too.

Sorry for a long question - but here's hoping VGL this year is going to be a loud crowd like in 2010 (where the lady beside me actually cried while listening to Chrono Trigger, and people were loud and cheering) ... makes the experience less of a bunch of people into a theatre listening to music, and more into a bunch of people re-living their childhoods, and favourite moments ever on a TV screen.

Thanks

- CKAGT

Don't forget about Halo, we're giving up valuable playing time attending! (probably my biggest annoyance about VGL this year).
