Video proof: Major Nelson is not Paris Hilton

by Richard Mitchell on Feb 8th 2008 1:00PM

If you've been paying attention to Inside Xbox, you may recall former Microsoft bigwig Peter Moore (now cozy with EA) calling out one Major Nelson during an interview with Microsoft's TriXie. Specifically, Moore (jokingly) described Major as "self-absorbed," adding, "now he's pretty much, you know, the Paris Hilton of video games. That, you know, he is, you know, above us all." Major Nelson is apparently not one to take things lying down, and he quickly prepared a response video for this week's edition of Major's Minute. We won't spoil it, but rest assured that Major Nelson consulted the highest authority on this matter.

lol, good comeback !

that was actually very entertaining.

I saw that last night and thought "what a complete waste of time". Paris Hilton does NOT belong in my xbox.

Paris haters be danged - that was pretty funny.

Paris Hilton pops up unexpectedly in my 360 like herpes..
(jk)

Actually my real comment was only that you have to wonder how Larry Hyrb knows Paris Hilton...

Paris Hilton +1. That was hilarious.

Funny stuff.. the article didn't really sound like it was in jest, but I'm glad it is. :)

that was "hot"

I was too distracted during that video by Trixie's fat neck shaking when she laughed.

Not funny...yet I laughed. Does that make me a bad person? Hey I'm fat too, don't take it personally. And yes, HOW did Major get Paris to do this?

OMG

I El Oh Eld so friggin hard when I saw Paris.... Very unexpected. Good Stuff Major

Even Peter Moore's comments were pretty funny lol. Good update.

Caution: Paris Hilton in direct contact with your Xbox may give you a nasty case of the RRoD.

Please use "protection."

Even funnier when you realise he said Perez Hilton not Paris Hilton, so he'll have the last laugh I guess.

"Major Nelson is apparently not one to take things lying down"

was that pun intended? was that a shot at ms. hilton?

Paris Hilton is welcome in my Xbox any time she wants. Deeeeelicious!

Whhhhhhhhat! Hahaha... that's awesome.

Not a real Paris Hilton!?

that was a good video. FYI, don't hit the guide button while watching the video. It locked up my system.

Hehe pretty good comeback. :)

Paris Hilton should not be allowed anywhere near the gaming community. The fact that they would let such a waste of a person on is retarded. I almost don't want to watch any more Major's Minutes. Bad form.

i lol'd

Er, Moore actually said *Perez* Hilton. He's referring to the celebrity blogger, rather then the stupid, spoiled whore...

Rather entertaining indeed!

Ok, that was funny. Reading the accompanying text beforehand, I figured it would be Gates replying.

Yeah, obviously Paris has no idea who Peter Moore is or why she's saying that ("Just look into the camera and say this") but oh well.
