This eerily reminds me of that Office episode where Michael decides that giving out fruit baskets will help drive paper sales...



So say we all, yo.

THE CAKE IS A LIE



The cake is a lie (sorry, had to be done).

edit: beaten 



I didn't get one. :(



Around the Network

Wolf Blitzer gets first slice!



Thanks to kenobi after I got him to ban my old account (dallas) after someone hacked into it and being ok with me coming back under a slightly different username.  I appreciate our communication in the PMs.  Also I want to give a big thank you to vgchartz for being one of the cooler websites around. 

Oh, and I'm still the next Michael Pachter

Does that mean on the anniversary of all the other Playstation3 models they will send out different cakes; first with no icing, then no icing and no marzipan and finally nothing but a piece of sponge but it's cheap and at least someone might want it!


:P



I wouldn't eat the marzipan anyway. Thus is the Sony bakery redeemed.



So say we all, yo.

But you can't use your last-gen silverware to eat the newest cake.



We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai

It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps

We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick

 

Uh Kwaad, is that frosting on your lips?
