E3: Day 3 and Recap

Hey guys it’s Brue a.k.a. Dupin a.k.a. Kid Sid Vicious a.k.a. I-have-to-make-up-my-own-nicknames-forever-alone, and guess what E3′s over and it was kinda cool but not the most exciting one, in spite of the fact that Nintendo revealed their next generation console and Sony revealed their next generation handheld. There were still a few scraps to sweep away today, but nothing too significant. In light of that I’ll show you what I found today, then I’ll revisit my favorite videos from my pre-E3 and give some closing thoughts on those games.

E3: Day 2

Hello again folks, it’s Brue a.k.a. Grue a.k.a. the guy the talks about Minecraft all the time with another day of coverage for E3, Day 2 to be exact. Not a whole lot going on today, but I’d look like an asshole if I didn’t try to scrounge together some juicy little tidbits, or at least show new info from games I’ve talked about already. So here it is. Tomorrow I’ll have a nice little recap of the stories that made me shit myself with excitement and talk more about my expectations for these games.

E3: Day 1

Okay so this has actually and inevitably turned into a things-I-give-a-fuck-about E3 coverage instead of this complete and thorough project I had imagined at the beginning, because holy fuck there’s a lot of it, and holy fuck there are some games I don’t care for. Suffice it to say I included an article about Halo 4, which I would never had done hadn’t it been for the sake of completionism. Btw, no completionism is not a word. That being said, the amount of information coming out today was surprisingly lesser than I thought it would be, given the deluge of leaks from the lead up.

This is what I found today, probably articles tomorrow. Especially since today was Nintendo’s day at the fair, which harkens back to my argument about how many fucks were given today.

E3: Day 0

NOTE: Brue doesn’t have a posting account here yet, so I will be posting these articles for him. – Rob

Hello loyal viewers, this Travis a.k.a. Brue a.k.a. the guy that gets drunk on the show, here to bring you a news exclusive from Spankwagon.net (drink bitches) for the week of E3. As you already know, E3 is the Electronic Entertainment Expo which happens every year in Los Angeles, which is halfway across the country for Austin gamers like us.

Although we won’t be there in person, we thought it’d be a good idea to help our viewers out by hopefully collimating the deluge of information that has come out of this conference even before Day 1. Of course, we might not catch every story, the same way one could never hope to herd cats. Of course, trying to gather all of the stuff coming out of E3 would be like trying to herd cats drunk on catnip while you yourself are drunk. Also, the cats have lasers. And they’re zombies.

I’m going to be selfish here and list some of my favourite stories first, along with a few of my musings about what I noticed, what I might expect, etcetera. If you just see a link to an article or a video, there’s a good chance I don’t give a fuck about that game.

Fuck It In The Ass #1: Don’t Be So Wii Todd Ed

The Electronic Entertainment Expo is almost upon us again, where manufacturers show off the games and hardware that will keep us in front of the TV for hours on end not paying attention to the world around us.  For some time now there has been only one major hardware manufacturer has tried to get us off of the couch to play our games: Nintendo.  Nintendo’s Wii brought motion based controls to the masses and therefore bringing a new dimension to gaming with such thrilling titles as Wii Sports, also known as The Only Game Most People Will Ever Play On The Wii.
