E3 Is Over, And A Gift From The Minus World To You

the -minus world on July 18th, 2008

Well E3 was pretty much a catastrophic disappointment for all parties involved, but that doesn’t mean we didn’t get really drunk from free company catering and awkwardly hit on the last booth babe on earth. Now while the other video game sites are all tuckered out and hugging their pillows, we’re guzzling energy drinks in preparation for E4! That’s right ladies and gentlemen, next week we will be traveling across the globe to the world’s most important video game trade show, E4. Until then, check out our new site design! Isn’t it sexy? You can even dress up your own computer to look just like it, hug your monitor tenderly, and think about us, even when you can’t be here in our arms.

Sony Creates Little Big Planet Stage To Showcase Unsold PSP Software

B Miggs on July 17th, 2008

Following Sony’s innovative use of Little Big Planet’s engine to show off their console sales data, the company has leaked a screen shot of another one of the game’s abilities: recycling unsold PSP software. This stage was created entirely out of sales flops and dusty old UMD movies, a format that was widely deemed worthless. Sony sees rampant piracy as the main cause of the landfills full of games, but several analysts agree that it’s mostly because the games suck. There are thousands of different combinations that gamers can create out of the failed medium, including a stage that looks like a giant Nintendo DS to remind them which handheld is better. Little Big Planet will be available this fall. Try to actually, you know, buy it.

agent b on July 16th, 2008

It’s easy to just forget this year’s Nintendo conference, pretend it never happened, or ignore it entirely.

the -minus world on July 15th, 2008

It’s that magical time of the year again! The Electronic Entertainment Expo is on and popping and we weren’t invited. That doesn’t mean we won’t be there in spirit, or even better, illegally! We hatched a wacky, mostly insane plan to slip into E3’s fleshy exit after sniping a few armed guards.
