Yeah... that chick's neck always looked like it was struggling to keep her head from flying off... it was like some invisible force was trying to rip her head off out of sympathy for us yet some stronger will held it there...

...

Yeah, I got tired of her too...

That is utterly ridiculous. I'm glad I'm not a big Nintendo fan, or I'd be in tears right now. The footage of them performing WiiMusic together is just... disheartening. I've never been a big "casual games" alarmist, but now? I'm in.

Uggh... What're you doing Nintendo? You have the chance to revolutionize gaming and this is what you give us? The bottom line is, gaming did just fine without old people and housewives, and it'll do just fine after they've moved to the next flavor of the week(weak). I don't care if the elderly and homemakers enjoy games, but only if they enjoy their snakes solid, their fantasies final, and their chiefs master. Coming E3 2009, the Dr. Mario Home prostate exam! You just take the Wiimote and shove it as far as you can, good ol' Doc Mario gives you the results.

Itchy: "You really like that throttle, Reggie," seems to be the favorite. That's what this vid was missing.

At first, I thought "wow, this is funny." As the video progressed I laughed my fucking ass off and watching it again was even better. I think I'm laughing so hard that my eyes are tearing up.

You know, someone is eventually going to have to interview Drum Man. I want to know what his thoughts are on overnight, supernova-like stardom.

I feel bad for the guy who was playing the drums, he now has to live his whole life knowing that what he did on Tuesday morning is going to be on the internet forever and he will never live it down.

I think the YTMND captured it a little better. Also, not sure why this is front page, maybe on a slow news day. :p

That video was actually hilarious. Jim how long did that woman in the beginning stay on stage? If I had to listen to her for more than 5 minutes I would kill myself.

Vigor: She was on for the majority of it, patronizing and grinning her way from one brain-scraping pile of bullshit to another.
