06/07/05: Better
late than never - E3 2005!
M:
Well, this is it. The latest strip. "Late" as in "two weeks late". Sorry
about that, but I seem to get lost in background details a lot recently.
The
worst part about this is that I usually blur or soften those backgrounds,
or there are word balloons covering most of them. I really have to
work
on my priorities...
Anyway,
there's not much else to say about this year's show, except maybe that
it's really been very loud, very noisy, and that I've encountered
a
lot of people that didn't seem to fit the job description of "professional
gamer". Especially the "professional" part. I mean, come on: Two guys
running
around in a blue jump suit from the German Luftwaffe, simply because one
of them played soccer in his youth??? Who are those clowns?
Journalists?
Developers? Senior marketing managers with a big corporation? I sincerely
doubt that. So, whom did they bribe to get into the show?
Remember?
Trade show? Professional visitors only?
Anyway,
I'm already looking forward to next year. I'll have ten years of E3 in
a row under my belt, then. Wheee... |
