Sony’s E3 2013 press conference was going pretty well, and then suddenly it broke. For whatever reason, they decided to show an actual man talking to a videogame version of the same man. All this did was illustrate how far we are from truly gaining photo realism in polygon-based graphics. If they had just shown the videogame man, then maybe, but next to the real man, it looked like a crude flop at best, and a potentially offensive caricature at worst.

Then it yelled at me.

Now Sony is touting that we can still buy and sell used games as a PS4 selling point, with no forced online connection at any time, so chances are that Videogame James will soon be forgotten forever.

Not by me. Scarred for life.
