Emailed this trailer to vita-owning friend at work an hour ago. He just walked in with the game loaded on his vita and handed it to me to play. It's really good!

He has grey hairs in this video. So I don't think his fountain of youth is working all that hot.

I hate Kotaku, but Tim seems okay. And that tip at the end has truly changed my life.

Okay, I will buy the damn game, but only because now getting drunk also gives me raisin-toes. That is pretty awesome.

Done the shower beer thing. Once I jumped from a hot tub, into and right out of a pool, and back into a hot tub. Then cracked and drank a beer. That feeling is pretty intense. Of course there is the risk of cramping and drowning in the pool. Also a chance of your body going into shock when you step back in the hot tub. Or having the hotel manager on duty throw you and your friends out in the middle of the night. Other than that...

Tim Rogers was the only reason I visited Kotaku for years. It is great to see him on Giant Bomb in some form.

One of my favorite things in life is taking hours-long, blisteringly-hot hotel room showers while drinking cold beer. Trust me on this. (Also, I wish I had a Vita so I could support these folks.)

It took about sixty seconds to sell me on this, so I had a good three minutes to wonder what the hell he's doing with all that whey protein. I'm no fitness nut, but that seems like too much, right?

I would buy this.

But I don't have a Vita. And I don't currently have plans to acquire one any time soon.

Regardless, it is an amusing video, and I hope it sells well for him.

I tested shower beer way back in college. It is quite relaxing and liberating.

Until you lose your grip and cut open your feet and have to crawl to your cell phone yelling Die Hard obscenities while dialing your emergency service number.

That's why you only drink cans in the shower. Safety first!

He's like 50% Michael Cera, 50% Sam Rockwell and 50% Rivers Cuomo. Sometimes 150% of people makes one whole, you're gonna find out what I mean about that later...

I honestly don't know if I'd care for this video game but that trailer was so awesome, I might have to spend the $3 on my Vita just to support it.

Would pay $3 for that just based on this awesome video but I don't even know someone that may know someone that has a Vita.

I feel if he got a cut from the alcohol sales spurred from the video he'd make more than the game.

Tim Rogers is a genius, or maybe an idiot, or maybe an idiot savant.

In any case, if you hatelove him on Kotaku, you should check out his site (the repeatedly mentioned but rarely visited actionbutton.net). It's full of reviews in his trademark style, by which I mean they're 50 page digressions that may be more than half about rock and roll or jeans.

I wish more people in the industry wrote like him.

okay, quick note, it's not a Vita game. It's a Playstation Mobile game which I think includes the original PSP (I'm guessing here) and some Android phones.

Still not exactly great, but at least I'll be able to play it without a Vita.

@cale: It's a PlayStation Mobile game, which is only available in the US and the larger European countries. If you do, you should find it in the PSN store on the Vita under the PlayStation Mobile tab.
