These are my whateva whateva shoes.

Has anyone but me been watching E3? Did you watch the entire Ubisoft conference with your mouth open and a quizzical look on your face like I did?

1. The crowd had no idea who Joel McHale(SP?) is.

2. He did not find any of the demo's impressive at all... but who did?

3. Laser tag? Really

4. A game where you just breathe? Reeeeally!?

I've never seen such a disaster.

I watched a little of E3 regarding Twisted Metal, and halfway through David Jaffe's interview with Olivia Munn they start talking about his foreskin.

That interview was worthless because Olivia wouldn't stop with the smart ass remarks. I learned more from watching the televisions behind her because of the beta testers having a multiplayer battle during the interview.

So, Kinnect is seriously the best that Microsoft could come with? The presentation with the little boy and the whole interaction thing from last year was pretty interesting, if not technologically impossible, but at least it was entertaining. But now we get video chat AND watching movies? That's fucking awesome. And Justin Bieber?? OMFGROFLMAOGTFOBBQCOPTER!!

On top of that, they're probably gonna charge out the ass for the technology, then make you have to subscribe to Xbox live AND the Kinnect service. There's a reason Microsoft makes so much money.

RE: Kinekt

Kinekt will be cool once they figure out what to do with it. I'm more excited for the "move" for the PS3, but since my ps3 shitted out, it doesn't matter.

I was watching the Sony presentation, and when they announced the 50 dollar list price for the little ball handheld thingy the crowd went crazy.... Then they announced that the other part of it would be 20, the crowd was like "WTF?" Completely lost the crowd. So now we're talking 70 bucks. But even worse, is that some of the demo's they were showing, people were using two of those ball peripherals to control the game. So... That just turned into a buck twenty, and that's for only ONE player.

So to talk about Kinekt like it's some sort of rip-off, is a joke.

I saw about 3 seconds of Twisted Metal and it looked exactly like TM Black, which I was not a fan of. I think with the advance in technology, they kind of lost the whole feel of the original game. TM2 was def my fav, and I didn't need a HUGE level of nonsense to have fun. I could drive around that LA loop all day and nail people with ice. I think there was a fun-factor to TM and TM2 that is impossible to recapture. I've never played a car combat game that came close to those two titles, and I've played them all.

This years E3 was kind of disappointing. A lot of motion control, not much in the way of original gaming. It's kind of like... they're just releasing Wii titles for PS/Xbox, and oh yeah here are the sequels to the same boring games you've been waiting for. Crysis looks pretty impressive, and to be honest I wouldn't mind taking a look at Killzone in 3d. But all in all I think the most impressive thing of the show was the 3DS.

I'm mysterious like a man from a birth place unknown.


Sick less than weekly immunity like the folks on reality shows.


I'm gone like a 2 run homer in the 9th, white's down 3-2 top of the lineup,


home team their number 4 batter, the pitcher's save blown.


I'm a rockstar in a small city with a voice like somebody fit for the thrown.


I'm like the Temptations, though, wherever I lay my hat is my home.

It looks pretty cool, man.

The last time I played TM was many, many years ago.

Maybe I'm making shit up, but wasn't there a Sweet Tooth game planned a few years back?
