Too Much Info

There is literally too much going on this week to even mention the gems among the abject, turbulent noise of the E3 circus.

Although the Console maker's keynotes were more often than not weak and embarrassing, this year's E3 has created memorable memes and great expectations. Alright...I have games to play now. You know? Current games that are actually OUT, like InFamous. So, stop waiting and stop reading. Go play something, will ya?
