Back From E3

Posted by Duke_Ferris - 06/05/09 So how much walking does a journalist have to do to cover E3? Well, according to Personal Trainer Walking, it takes 42,280 steps. The pic is from the final day, Thursday June 4th, which works out to just about 6 miles. Total for the show? 21.1 miles. I started off well behind Blake in PT: Walking, because he rode his bike to work (May I point out that biking is not walking, Blake?), but now I'm well ahead. Challenge on, biatch. I managed to bust my laptop at E3 by closing it up on an earbud, cracking the screen. I cannot describe how depressing that is. It's also the reason I was unable to blog yesterday. Want to know all about E3? There's no better way than to head over to the podcast, where I drone on and on incessantly while I drink beer. A number of you wrote me to ask where our review of the new Punch Out for the Wii is. Thing is Nintendo didn't send it to us, but rest assured, we went and bought a copy and the our take on the career of Little Mac will be coming to you next week. Stranger too that our featured video section is full of Punch Out ads. I always feel weird when we're running ads for a game but don't have a review. Speaking of mail, yes, we know the flash thingy on the cover isn't updating. Don't worry, we've ordered more whippings for the programmers. Tons of E3 previews coming next week. Have a great weekend. I'm planning on sleeping fully 10 hours a night. [ 17 Comments ]         [ Post a Comment ]

So Duke, Ninja Nick Tan and Chris Hudak are all down in LA for the bigger, better, now with 20% more zazz E3 conference. And honestly, I'm kinda glad I'm not there, because I'd probably be feeling even more miserable than I do now.   read more...
