Who is going to E3?

Tell me where you'll be at so I know which places to avoid.

You gonna fly me out Tom?

I would really really like to go but alas I will be merely watching the coverage on G4, IGN and to some extent Cnet. Just watched the unveiling for the PS3 controller. They totally bit Nintendo’s motion controller idea. I mean it still looks exactly like the PS2 controller but it has motion sensors hooked up via Bluetooth that let you control content by actually moving the controller.

Anyhoo I also saw an add for the new Shadowrun game coming to the PC platform. I am a total Shadowrun junkie so that got me pretty hyped up.

I think the Xbox 360 is for suckas. Poor poor Microsoft and their failed early launch strategy. I mean if you think about the numbers alone PS2 sold somewhere in the neighborhood of 30 million units in the US and the Xbox, granted it came into the fray way late, only sold like 14million. Now when you consider that the Sony consoles have always been hella backwards compatible and that in order for the 360 to be backwards compatible you HAVE to buy the hard drive pfffftttt LOSERS!! Not to mention all of their games can be played BETTER on a PC. It's a "no brainer" to me they tried to make the PC platform a console platform and imo the idea is hella weak. I'd rather play GR:Advanced Warfighter, or whatever, and the new Elder Scrolls on the PC WAAYY before the 360 pffffffttttt again. I dunno maybe Anon will agree with me here although I know he no likie consoles...at all.

Well for all you Cali cats have fun if you go and post some pictures of anything you find that really makes you go "WHOA!!!"

Take away our playstations and we're a third world nation--Ani Defranco

She's the type of "individual third world nation" (TAKE A BATH ANI!) that makes me reconsider sharing my opinions on subjects when I have no idea about what I am talking about.

There are so many studies coming out showing the beneficial nature of playing video games in regards to mental acuity, depth perception, and hand-eye coordination that this myth that video games are somehow bad for our health and society is total rubbish. On either 60mins or Frontline they recently interviewed this laparoscopic surgeon who was an avid gamer. He created his own study that showed how video games and skills as a laparoscopic surgeon are correlated. His study has shown that ppl with ANY videogame background, even if it was years ago, are 40% more accurate than there non-videogame playing counterparts. During the bit he brought in a gamer who had never used Laparoscopic surgery tools before and gave home a typical drill using said tools. This dude scored in the top 99 percentile for the task!!!!! That's crazy ... anyway sorry for going slightly off topic but I mean how much depth is there really to an E3 thread ... I add flava baby!

Just to finish up going along with this trend is Nintendo with their new Brain Age "game", it's really more of a brain booster title designed to slowly lower your "Brain Age" and overall make you sharper on a mental acuity tip. It's already been proven that playing games and puzzles can slow down the onset of certain types of dementia and Alzheimer’s. Well the Brain Age also has a version of Soduko, which, although really taken to by the Japanese, was created by some white dude in Indiana or Illinois in the 70's lol

Oh does Ani still have dreads? Cuz if so that's so funny it hurts. Don't get me wrong I have friends with dreads and I'm like "???????" ... if it's just coming from a dread nappy hair place cool ... if it refers to being a Rasta and your white, go Wiki the Rastafarian religion.**sighs** Racism sux

Tom stop playing around with youself! Oh multiple personality one...

Re: Who is going to E3?

I think you are thinking too shallow... about what I'm saying.


I don't think 'Ani' is against gaming. I've played them many times. However, video games can be dangerous if people opt out of biophysical reality for the electronic game. Kids need to be outside and running around, too. My game (which I can't really take full credit for--"my" means all that helped and still do) permits playing, and running around outside, and expanding the mind, and learning new things, creating peace, and protecting the Earth--all at the same time... I love this game.

When/how will change (or 'haircuts' happen)?

What? No killing of hordes of nasty alien beasties using big guns? Boring.
