Amazing OP!

Nintendo's e3 conference and Ridley Scott's "Prometheus"
in the same week is just amazing.

I think the big reveal will be Epic showing the Unreal Engine 4 running
on the WiiU and it'll look stunning.

Ehh.. I have no life. Working 60-70 hours per week lately, this community is a godsend. But if oddsmakers are putting me at/near the top tier on the death pool, I might have to be a bit more cautious in the coming weeks. Less hot passion, more cool thought, Tom!

New console launch year events are uber-holidays for us Nintendo fans. Christmas, Mardi Gras, Steak-&-BJ Day, birthday, the last day of school, and Halloween all wrapped into one! So please, everyone.. please be careful out there. I want everyone on-board still when E3 is over and done with!

{damn.. now I miss Ubermatik. If you're reading this, Uber, we miss you!} :(
