This is a day of mourning and shock for the gaming community, possibly compareable to September 11th. Whether you be a console gamer, a PC gamer, or positioned somewhere delightfully inbetween, Some vile force, brooding in the darkness from it's onyx throne, saw fit to banish from our lives a day of hope. A day of prosperity. A day of the biggest gaming news of all time. Ladies and gentlemen, the powers that be have cancelled E3. There is no way that my feeble attempt to describe this... this... this atrocity can do any justice. So, instead I give you the most influential gamers of our time, Gabe and Tycho, whom I beleived put it best.
Albeit the inability for the humble, average gamer to attend this day of monumental stature, which keeps it's fabled "passes" for the secret sect of our gaming elites, who are entrusted with heralding the coming of future computerized entertainment programs, this day remains important to every gamer who saw fit to pick up the controller. Today truly is a day of dispair, a day that shall live in infamy.
CLIFFS NOTES: Those bastards who run E3, which is uncontestably the biggest, most improtant video gaming convention on the face of the earth, cancelled it this year. In fact it's possible that it's gone for good. Ordinary people can't get tickets, as they are reserved for gaming press, game developers, and the few who could afford the $10k sticker price on one of a few day passes that are sold each year. I hate to say it, but even Jordan wouldn't sink this low. P.S. That's a reference to Star Wars: A New Hope in that comic. If you knew that, great. I'm telling you this because there's always one or two people who will be scratching their heads trying to figure out where they've heard it before.
