"Microsoft To Japan: 'We Got Nothing'"
"Do you come with the controller?"
"Oh, you. Tee hee hee!"
At E3 2005, Microsoft filled the front rows of their press conference with shills, audience plants who hooted and hollered and applauded the arrival of the Xbox 360. I thought they'd learned their lesson, but they did it again at this year's Tokyo Game Show press conference.
This time, at least, they put them in the back. They were Xbox Live community members from Japan, ostensibly. And on cue, they hooted, hollered, and applauded in a very, very un-Japanese manner. Almost as if they were asked to. This is a country who goes to professional wrestling matches and sits there in stony-faced silence.

EDIT: To clear up any confusion, I agree that that is some bullshit.

today he complained about the price of the FFCC PSP pack despite the fact that it comes with a special LE PSP, LE packaging for the game, an LE cell phone charm (which is actually pretty cool) and costs a mere 290 yen ($2.50) more than buying the PSP and the game separately!
bitch.
and i did not get into tokyo early enough to buy one of these for myself, and i guarantee they're all sold out, so double-bitch.

Scenester, have you ever tried MZX, the follow-up to ZZT? I'm pretty infamous in the MZX community, not really very well known in the ZZT community anymore but have made a few games.
-
Nope never tried MZX. Link me a good DL and I'll check it out. I played the hell out of Super ZZT when I was 11 as it was on my class PC. Good times

"Meanwhile, Nintendo rules the roost, having sold 74 percent of the gaming hardware in Japan so far this year. Rival hardware makers are
scrambling for scraps even as Nintendo's supremacy changes the way developers approach the industry. (Get full coverage of the show on the Game|Life blog.)"
:lol fucking chris kohler, i swear.

I think he says stuff like that as a joke. I mean he doesn't outright say MS or Sony suck, right?
