We Feel Awful For Celebrities
We're just like you! Just because we write like there are a bunch of us "on staff" and that we know our opinions about games are better than yours and we dress better than you and look down on you pudgy nerd types who like to brand yourselves "hardcore" doesn't mean we can't relate! We totally know the depths of you and often feel your "pain". And even then, when we think something pompous like and put in on our Web site, we feel deep shame and ask ourselves rhetorically "I wonder why you don't have any friends". Just like you!
And when we see vacuous slags sporting free Gamecubes and Xbox 360s we get a bit riled up, just like you! But who can be angry at poor Tilda Swinton, star of some fairy movie for children?
Look how terrified she is! Held politely hostage by overenthusiastic Japanese representatives from D3. They want to show her a game!
Oh no! They've given her a Dual Shock. When people from the games industry try to talk about how games are EVERYWHERE and EVERYONE plays them and WOMEN ARE GAMERS TOO we will remember this photo as evidence that no one plays games but teenage boys and us. We also believe that based on this photo alone, the Nintendo remote control games console will be A HUGE SUCCESS WITH TILDA SWINTON.
Goodness! You'd think that controller was a freshly shat log given to her by a mentally retarded homeless man and she's doing her best to humor him until he's carried away. But we think she's from the UK and they like to act polite as well.
Finally! She's been relieved of the controller! We'll never ever again find it suspect when actors and actresses say things like "Oh, I'd really like to be doing theatre!" because we FINALLY GET IT NOW.
