It's time for the Take-Two Interactive E3 2008 press conference! What mysteries lie beyond the jump? Will they talk about GTA DS? Will they concede and hand over the company to EA right then and there? Will they...I dunno...talk about an upcoming movie for an hour?
God I hope not.

Borderlands should be really cool. Kind of reminds me of that Terrence Malick movie. Well, maybe because that's called "Badlands." And "Bonnie and Clyde." Anyway, looking forward to that. Hopefully we'll hear something about L.A. Noire.

I guess Fahey's Wiimote is actually Mr. Brightside.
On a more serious note: it's good to know that Take-Two had people there to actually demo the games.
Oh, and that Nash guy would be Rick Nash from the Columbus Blue Jackets, 3-time All-Star and the top goal scorer in the league a few years ago.

Show a lot of things happening at once,
Remind everyone of what's going on (what's going on?)
And with every shot you show a little improvement
To show it all would take to long
That's called a montage (montage!)
Oh we want a montage (montage!)

Fahey,
I'm not a journalist, nor a blogger and I'm certainly not at E3. So obviously there's a lot I don't know. But I can say your live blog read more like a chat room full of vapid teens. Too you "yadda yadda Bioshock" may be chalk full of details in regards to the IP. But to the rest of us it doesn't mean shit other then wasted time visiting this post.
