I can’t think of anything…Follow me on Twitter.
I maintained the attitude of “Nintendo please” as long as I could…but darn them, they put out some compelling stuff. From a zombie game to a 360 controller…it looks like they are getting back on track. I will say as of right now…I’m tentatively excited.
They word on the street was this is considered a “ho-hum” E3, but I must say I think this E3 has more original IP’s that I am genuinely excited about, then possibly any recent year I can recall. The Last of Us, Hawken, Dishonored, Watch Dogs and some crazy game called Super Mario…oh whoops how’d that get in there?
Almost all the games I spent the time to view looked extremely polished graphically. I was more than impressed with the usual fare as well. This time around I really felt like these were games for gamers…as cliche as that sounds.
If I had to say a game that I am most anticipating, right now, its Hawken. An action packed mech fps. If you didn’t get a chance to check out the vids on this little diamond, do yourself a favor and do so now. The beta starts on 12/12/12 and you can sign up now with the following link

It’s Friday…praise the gods its Friday.

Nintendo seem to be stepping up to the mark when it comes to innovation (the Wii was a pretty clever move, don’t really know much about the Wii U).
Personally, I didn’t think they’d survive after the Gamecube… but here they are.
Nintendo “compels” the same way Apple does… people WANT to like their products so much, they buy them regardless of their merits. It’s tribalism, and it keeps us from thinking critically. Sure, the WiiU has plenty of haters, but 99% of them will line up to buy one the first day.
One wonders if any Nintendo executive had the temerity to ask “What are we doing? This is fucking stupid! It’s the 3DS all over again!” before the ninjas, concealed by secret panels in the boardroom, cut him to ribbons?
What’s there to criticize, exactly? It’s been made pretty clear that they’re getting back on track, Ubisoft’s ZombiU looks excellent, and Pikmin 3 and Project P-100 alone look to be reason to own a Wii U.
Yes, but what about the ninjas? And I dursn’t list my criticisms now, because… ninjas.
Resistance is probably futile.
I gotta say, I’m actually pretty excited about the new system. Nintendo has some special secret power to making me want their magical technology so very badly.
Um… Did Hawken just assassinate MechWarrior Online..? … probably not, but still… o.o
