E3 2012: Best of Xbox Showcase

Jeff storms the floor of the Best of Xbox Showcase, managing to check out Gears of War Judgment, bump into Tony Hawk(!), and find a few depressingly familiar faces.

The eternal battle between Giant Bomb and the Electronic Three rages on.

"Do you want to talk to Tony Hawk?" is my new favourite Giant Bomb related quote.

Tony Hawk looks an awful lot like Steve McQueen. I like that.

The only thing better than guy randomly asking "Do you want to talk to Tony Hawk?" is how high Jeff's voice got on the "Yeah, sure". That really caught him off guard. But that was a great impromptu interview. Well done sir!

That Tony Hawk interview was kind of weird but I completely understand the way Jeff acted; those games are literally video game masterpieces.

God fucking damn, I love Dave Lang. I just can't help but laugh like a crazy person at the notion of a game where "you must be this tall to play" not because of safety reasons, but because the person making it just wanted to make it for tall people lol.

I really hope someone does that one day just for the hell of it...

Hey, how about changing the title of this video to make it stand out between all the trailers and demos? Almost skipped this one when I scrolled through my feed reader.

Wait, wouldn't "stealing someone else's groove" be considered a dance crime?

I actually got really excited when "Want to interview Tony Hawk?" happened.

It's like I vicariously lived through that experience through Jeff. Awesome.

Also, as a tall person, I'm always ticked off by urinals that are way too low to the ground. Consider the big people!

Tony Hawk seems like a nice guy. I thought it was going to be really awkward at first considering the whole TH: Ride debacle.

I like how Tony is actually familiar with his own games and involved, I'm sure no one would blame him if he just let them put his name on the games and collect a check.

Tony Hawk is awesome, I hope there can be some awesome new TH games released in the future cause I really do miss the franchise.
