What if we became desensitized to death? Burying bodies by the thousands without a single thought or prayer.

Overall Best of Show
WINNER: Gears of War (Xbox360)
For instance, is it not nonsense to compare the charge for dinner at the company cafeteria with dinner at a fine restaurant? It’s a question of what you can do with that game machine. If you can have an amazing experience, we believe price is not a problem.
When we announced the PlayStation price, it was said to be expensive. Same for the PlayStation 2. However, when released, both had sales that were unthinkable for previous game machines. This is because both offered experiences that could not be had on previous game machines.
With the PS3, you can have next generation game experiences that could previously not be experienced — things like next generation graphics and various services via the network. And, as with the PS and PS2, we believe people who like games will, without question, purchase it."

He said something along the lines of:
"Sonic has gotten a little more kiddy in its last few installments, such as Shadow the Hedgehog, and we want to bring it back to what made it fun in the first place, improved graphics, and a more adult experience"
I thought he was joking. First of all, Sonic has actually gotten more adult recently. Shadow actually said "Damn" in his game. Secondly, If you don’t want to make it kiddy, then stop putting Tails into every game. Third (and funniest of all), IMPROVED GRAPHICS DID NOT MAKE SONIC BETTER:| WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT:| You’d think after countless successful 2-D games and a grand total of ZERO successful 3-D games, Sega would realise that improved graphics do not necessarily make the game better.
BUT.
The gamecube controller isn’t the best for playing N64, SNES, and NES games, so nintendo is also releasing a controller that looks a lot like the SNES one, except with 2 added analog sticks, one of which I assume acts as the C-stick.
To put things simply:
ALIGHT MATES. So today we had the conferences wrapped up, and I guess I’ll mainly focus on Nintendo and Sony here.
So without further ado, here’s my opinion on what I saw.
1. Sony has done the impossible. They have sunk even lower.
Ever heard the saying "If you cant beat em, join em."?
So Sony decides to copy Nintendo and make their controller tilt-sensitive.
Fuckers.
2. I’m liking what I’m seeing from Twilight Princess and Metroid Prime 3:
Guys. You can use the grapple beam offensively now. Tell me that’s not amazing:|
Apparently the controller has a high sensitivity, but my guess is that most likely controller sensitivity will be a changable option in the game, like it is in Metroid Prime: Hunters for the DS.
Twilight Princess will be available in two versions. One for the Wii and one for the Gamecube.
3. Sony did something right:

^^from Ign.com
They did away with the bomerang controller.
This controller will NOT have a rumble feature, but as I mentioned before, it is tilt sensitive.
4. Also impressive was Super Mario Galaxy. Its Mario, but in space. Should be sick.
AS WELL, SPORE. This game is designed by the creator of The Sims and looks damn cool. The basic idea is that you start with a single celled organism and evolve and evolve and turn into a galaxy conquering race. My words don’t do it justice, but I recommend checking it out.
5. ahem… this is good. I saved the best for last SONY HAS ANNOUNCED THE OFFICIAL RELEASE DATE AND PRICE OF THE PS3.
It will be released to North America and Europe on November 17th. If by chance you reside in Japan, you’ll get it on the 11th.
THE PRICE? Sony has decided to make 2 versions of the system. One with a 20 gig hard drive, and one with a 60 gig hard drive.
For the 60 gig hard drive, $599. American.
If you’re cheap, and only want the 20 gig hard drive, then its about $499 american. For Canada its about $659 and $549 respectfully.
without tax.
HAVE A FUN TIME CHRISTMAS SHOPPING!!!!
Don’t worry though. We do get a 1% tax cut
Oh, and Sony bigshot Ken Kutaragi had this to say about the pricing:
"It’s probably too cheap"
Don’t ya just love Sony’s "wallet friendly" policy?
OK COCKSUCKAS, THATS ALL FOR NOW. MASTA KAKUNAMAN IS OUT.
I’m kak. I’m pretty much teh pwnage of everything ever made. I’m here cuz E3 starts on the 10th. Which means from then to the 12th, its pretty much all about video games, all the time. As much as I like what s3h has done with the place, it could still use a little bit of… my personal touch.
