I'm a bit depressed after this E3. Usually E3 is better than Christmas, this year was a washout. Combine that with all the crap I've had to put up with for the past 6 weeks, sleeping in different houses and still-not-finished-construction work and now having to sleep on a floor because a bed shop fucked up for a week - back hurting. It's just miserable. And after a week of 25C heat we are in June and it's cold in England. crying



I'm not being flippant, but I had observed that you were going through the Kubler Ross stages of grief (after the N conference) : Denial, Anger, Bargaining, and Depression.  The final stage is acceptance.

I am going through the 3 stages of NOT HAVING A BEDROOM TO SLEEP IN and NOT HAVING A BED TO SLEEP IN and excruciating BACK PAIN.

Bed has been delayed again to Monday a week from now, fuckers called this mornng. I will not accept this anytime soon.

Honestly that's why I did not bring it up earlier. (The fact that you are sleep deprieved provided me with extra sympathy for you).

Our very own Dolorous Edd Tollett. LOL

My deepest sympathies to you, GG. How did all this contractor shenanigans started out anyway?

GG you need to just get out and get a blowjob from some whore at a sleazy club. Face fuck the shit out of that bitch.

I hate to be blunt, but this will make you feel better.

GG that is dreadful.  My advice is to go on another little break.  You don't have to spend a lot of money.  You could get a ryanair flight to somewhere not too expensive like Lithuania or the Czech Republic.  Get away for a few days while all that is going on.  Sleep in a proper bed and get out a bit.

If he's not there they will probably bulldoze his house to fix the wall they shouldn't have knocked down. It sounds like the builders need a little supervision.

Any thoughts on Mattrick vs Reggie vs Tretton?

Mattrick was the worst to me, he trots out PR speak but does not have the delivery. He flashes that smile and flops his hair about like he's the shit but he just seems to be an anonymous bridge to the content.

Reggie is good sometimes bad sometimes. He's the wrestler of the gaming conference world. He talks smack but then when he hasn't got the content to back it up, his bravado is followed by Wii Fit U and he falls flat on his face.

Tretton I find fairly funny in that when he is rattling off the pre-written PR speech about the best this, the best that, he sounds so disinterested like he doesn't even want to be there.

I do miss the Microsoft guys of all, Allard and Bach etc.

Iwata brings every fecking conference to a standstill and bores me to death most of the time. I like Kaz.

Kuteragi's accent and english delivery is so heavy it is hilarious in the brief moments he is allowed to speak.

Peter Moore when he was with Microsoft will always be the best. Doing game reveals via tattoos was awesome. I don't think we'll ever see anything like that again.

Peter Moore is up there with Reggie as a character but then he's now castrated having to focus on sports titles no one is really interested in.

Except he got promoted in August to Chief Operating Officer of EA. And, not that I care about EA's sports line-ups, but minimizing it as being something no-one cares about is a bit puzzling. Madden and FIFA perform pretty well, to say the least.

I used to hate Peter Moore when he was with SEGA.

I didn't know he was promoted.

When I say no one cares about sports games you should know what I mean Pro. Recentely it feels I have to waste time explain every little thing I say in exhausting detail. You know what I mean, when E3 comes around we all get hyped about action adventure games or whatever, no one is super pumped about the annual madden or fifa. No one cares.
