There are definitely people in your same shoes who like video games but don't want to engage with this part of the culture. I personally love E3 and Giantbomb's coverage of it, it's my favorite time of the year; although, there are also comic fans/movie fans/whatever who just do not enjoy the conventions and fanfare of big reveal events. They just want to enjoy the end product whenever it's available, and that's fine.

I don't think it's immature of people to get hyped about these events, but I understand that over time some things just don't excite you in the ways they used to. If you want to enjoy video games, but not associate with this part of them then go for it. Do what makes you happy, and the people who love E3 are going to be doing the same and there's nothing wrong with that or them for doing so. And if you are looking for a game related experience that doesn't revolve around just sitting at home watching trailers, there's always PAX!

Something Todd was talking about in one of these E3 interviews (don't remember which one) was how you nuke someone's settlement and it creates an irradiated zone where stronger mutated enemies would spawn. I've been trying to figure out why exactly you would want to do that. Is it to fuck with other players? Is it so you can go there to fight the stronger monsters to level up? It seems like an interesting idea, but I'm just not sure yet what the logic behind it is.

Feels like just a few weeks ago he was added to the GB crew, and now he's on his way out... Such sad news, but I know you'll do great things over at Vice! Congrats on the new job, and we'll miss you a ton.

I haven't played Overkill since I was little. This is so awesome, thanks for letting me know this is out there!

Watched this with no volume on for some reason so I can't really comment on voice acting / writing BUT I really like the way everything looks! Well, except Murray's face...that might take some getting used to...

This is great news! I got PS+ the day after Spelunky went off sale, and I was just about to buy it full price. Thanks for this.

If this happens I may finally play through all of Dark Souls instead of starting over after reaching Anor Londo...

A Bombcast ad is totally fine by me. It did take me a while to realize it wasn't a joke, though. :P

Should we expect significant change in EA with this?

I'm pretty excited for it! And yeah definitely rooting for TSM buuuuuut let's be realistic here...I don't have too much faith that they'll get very far. I'm really curious to see how far Vulcun and C9 make it too. EU teams are not really on my radar, but as for the Asian teams Ozone is my favorite of the ones who've made it.

Really hoping to see some new strategies and unique champ picks. Trundle, Rengar, and Nidalee would be so much fun to watch in the hands of some of the top teams.
