I thought Sony's showing at E3 was pretty strong this year. Their press conference was a delight for this gamer, as it featured new games and tech that I can look forward to in 2009 and on. There was one low point in their press conference, though.
As a racing game fan, I was excited to see Polyphony Digital's Kazunouri Yamauchi take the stage. It told me that a new Gran Turismo would be announced, and I was right. Yamauchi seemed a bit nervous, but the problem wasn't with him. It was his translator. What a dick. Seriously. I get that not everyone is a Gran Turismo fan, but he could at least act like he was excited for the game while on stage.
Hit the jump to see the translator's dickery in video.

yup, this is old but it was funny as hell(not my pics btw)
The best cure for a slow news day.
I couldn't go with a translator watching me!
^^^ Funny pictures.
Now I have, I laughed my fucking head off. I mean, seriously, you should have been able to hear me down the street.
Oh and @CypherVR: Brilliant, I didn't actually have any of them, they're bloody hilarious too!
@CypherVR: HA! Those are funny.
