    We showed you the offending EB Games ad. Then, DS Fanboy rather maturely copied the story from us, refusing to partake in a fanboy mudslinging battle. (And thankfully, no one tried to impersonate me in the comments! Thanks, guys.) It will certainly be interesting to see what kind of sensationalistic spin DS Fanboy will put on this rather silly "debate" from G4's Attack of the Show. While we wait, check out what the editors of our rivals, Kotaku and Destructoid, had to say about the future of the handheld battle. While they complain about the lack of good games for our system, let me point out that I am exhausted from having reviewed seven games in the last week, many of them being quite good. I guess silly things like "facts" don't bother the most opinionated of fanboys.

    Straight from G4's subterranean production facility comes video of my appearance on Attack of the Show last night. An explanation, dear readers: I haven't seen sunlight in months and the bright lights at the uplink facility rendered my ability to coherently form sentences temporarily inert for the conveniently inconvenient duration of 5 minutes ... just long enough to char my cloistered, gray skin. Ever since then, the entire world has been on a 5-second delay while I'm living in a future world, 5-seconds ahead of yours. You won't believe what happens ... NOW!I'll give you a hint: G4 appears to be having some trouble. Buffering. Video.

    I've been asked to appear on G4's Attack of the Show tonight (the kids just call it AOTS) to talk about the current political quagmire in the Middle East ... wait, that's tomorrow night on CNN. Tonight I'll be joined by Kotaku's Brian Crecente on The Loop to talk about ... video games! Specifically, what's happening with them in 2007. As always, the show airs at 7pm EST on G4 -- the erstwhile all-gaming channel -- so the morbidly curious can tune in and watch in horror (and disbelief) as an inevitable technical glitch will cause me to miss my cues and stare blankly at the camera ............ Oh, am I on?So 'stiqers, what exactly is going on in gaming in the oh-seven?
