Turo, learn how to link better. If you're going to do this sh*t all through E3 I guarantee you no one will bother with your posts.

So is every other game news blog out there. Kotaku will occasionally break news, but 2 minutes later every single other blog will have it up there anyways. Unless you no job and no life, I don't see how 5 seconds to 2 minutes is going to impact your news consumption.

I wouldn't go that far, because IGN is entirely worthless. At least Kotaku will get an interesting news bit out every so often.

However, Kotaku is awful because their editors are childish and generally have their head up their ass. Surprisingly, the only one worth his salt anymore is Mike McWhertor, who's grown into a respectable personality as far as game media goes. I've told the story before, but I actual had one of the Kotaku editors verbally attack me in the comments section and had another get into an e-mail argument with me.

For straight out news I just go to Joystiq. Their personalities are never involved in their posts. It's just the news without all the bullsh*t.

Update your bookmarks, kids. You only need 3 game sites to get everything you need. Joystiq for straight news. GameTrailers for video and important reviews and Giant Bomb for great game related video content and entertaining discourse on games in general.

Anyways, Metal Gear Solid HD collection sounds really nice. Getting achievements in MGS games sounds GREAT. Also kinda f*cking insane we'll be playing a weird off-shoot PSP game on the 360. Kojima productions also said they're working on a new engine that'll finally make them able to port their games to other systems like everyone else in the f*cking world. Goodbye Sony exclusive MGS games, I guess.
