I'll give the eGames Expo one more chance, but only to support the industry. This year they'd better have more developer stands, more presentations of upcoming games and more giveaways (the Microsoft guy wouldn't give me one of the free Gears of War 360 faceplates at the end of the day... b*stard)! I may even stay for the presentations on the stage if they're not media drivel, but I shouldn't have my hopes up...

I don't think I went to the Autosalon when it was on. Probably didn't go for one obvious reason. Too many Erin McNoughts (who can't game for jack and are just a media boofhead personality) roaming (*cough* mindlessly drooling like a stone dead hippy *cough*) around the autosalon. Not to say everyone is a boofhead but jeez, that piece of modelling hip-young-girl-thing on Cybershack (Channel 10) grinds my patience. Fuzzy the cute afro with the awesome attitude got shifted to Video Hits. Not the world's smartest move. Fuzzy was funky, Erin "McZero" McNought on Cybershack and jeez what a waste of time that was.
Stupid modelling nympho killed it. She probably doesn't even write her own script. I am willing to bet "The Fuzz" wrote her own script.
Gaming yuppified. Think about it.
Well enough of the bad. I am sure the autosalon will be like E3 once was. Loud pounding thumping music, a whole lot of slack jawwed yokels and booth babes to draw in the crowd. If it turns into this. I am so not there.
