Quantcast



I'm sure many of us have desperately crawled, lightly wailing, toward a videogame controller before, but unlike us, this chappy has an excuse, on account of being a baby, and not a drug-addled, booze-soaked twentysomething nobody like all of us ... I mean, all of you. One of the readers at Brian Crecente's Follicle Parade sent this one in over there, and now I'm posting it here because I'm a rotten hack with nothing better to do.

It's a beautiful moment, isn't it? This is a young life's first attempt at self-propulsion and its destination of choice is the warm, glowing embrace of an Xbox 360 controller. Why, it's almost enough to make me want to have kids, if I didn't absolutely abhor the dirty, undignified, freeloading little parasites.  

Is it a slow news day today?

That baby may hold the key to the console war. Throw down a Wiimote and PS3 controller as well and see which of the three he goes for.

I bet he's gonna grow up to flame the Wii3. So cute how they choose sides at such a young age. If he wants games for his age range, he reached for the wrong gamepad. I can't wait for him to kick ass and take names on Gears of War.

What they are not showing in this vid is that just out of the camera shot beyond the 360 controller is a sixaxis. The baby is actually exerting its first efforts so it can get that whote monstrosity out of its precious FOV and discover true gaming greatness on the ps3. Thats the true story.
