Hmm, let's see.

"No games" - Check

"Trailers are all CGI" - Check

"PS3 is too expensive" - Check

"No games" - Check again

"Games don't sell" - Check

"Fans resemble Rush Limbaugh" - Check

"No games" - Check again

"Trailers use in-game footage" - Check

Anything I missed?

Exactly. They're grasping at straws now. None of the recent reasons for bashing sony has made much sense.

Now everyone is happy.

Not so fast, I just thought of something. Will there be in-game footage in the game? That won't do, either.

Damn! I guess that pic was in-game.

Shame on you Sony for showing in game footage!

Where is the CGI?!

CGI? More like CG lie. That's not going to cut it, either.

The only reasonable thing to do is to show a plain black screen while a narrator describes the action. Preferably in as boring a monotone as he can muster.

No can do. Sony doesn't want gigantic sales numbers, they can't show off the PS3 like that, they are too modest.

Well, he would be expected to shy away from any overly exciting words. And, of course, he would be disallowed the use of any adjectives.

My god! Check this screenie!

Now everyone is happy.

And hey what about the guy from those old Clearisal commercials doing the commentary.... what... no go.... I'm not happy.

Boycotting the following:

1. Yoshi: He ate my car and spit out a toaster.

2. Igglybuff: Totally false advertisement. You can have as many as you like they don't buff nothing.

3. the Terms Hardcore/Softcore... We're talking Video Games. Not Porn.

4. The term Casual as relates to Gamers: We make them sound like outsider's that happen to play games. If that were the case they'd own a PS3.

5. Donuts.... Beacause I drink Beer...... and the biggest fan of Donuts hates Beer.

6. Boycotts: Their so lame.

Well they have to get hits somehow right?

Next will be

"Sony is cocky because they show demo kiosks at E3"

"Looks average".

Seriously though, Sony needs to stop being so cocky lately.

Enough is enough with the good looking games.

Sony should show their contrition by replacing all PS3s with a Dualshock 3 connected to a Teddy Ruxpin, until such a time as they prove they can make good games without relying on such gimmicks as "graphics."

Teddy Ruxpin is way too hardcore.
