I find it hilarious that you guys are advocating micro-micro-transactions when it comes to Gauntlet, but at the same time will go off about it when it comes to Horse Armor, EA, or Lumines Live. I hope you realize how hypocritical the argument you guys just made is.

I've had the demo for a while now and can't wait to pick it up. The thing about demos that some people seem to forget is that it's but a small sampling, it's not really meant to be played for hours and hours on end.

I think the companies whining about not making money at a closed event like E3 is stupid. If they opened it to the public and sold games at them they'd rake in the cash. You never see anyone from Comic-Con griping that they didn't make bank for their investment and the booths their are pretty large themselves.

This argument that people from Gamestop flooding the place is what killed it is just lame and a copout. What killed it is just the fact that it's an expensive who's got the bigger weiner contest. With a bunch of companies self-felating themselves and yammering about how much their shit don't stink.

Plus no E3 means no production slow downs on games, which means more games which means good for gamers. We'll still get our previews and screens from sites like this so it's all good in my book.
