May 15th, 2000 misinformer.com's E3 2000 coverage: An exercise in journalistic integrity By Marcus If you've got the fever for the flavor of a Dreamcast, or you're coo-coo for Playstation II, or you even have the slightest clue what the hell this "X Box" thing is, then you've probably already been to the Electronic Entertainment Expo 2000 and played until your chubby little cheeto-stained fingers cramped up, and the skin wore off your callused thumbs. For the rest of you reasonable people who aren't willing to shell out 200 bones for the honor of looking at two suburb sized conference halls full of hard-core video game advertising, misinformer.com was live on the scene to bring you all of the breaking news from inside those hallowed halls of hot digital consumerism. Many of you remember last year's E3 coverage... or lack thereof. At 1999's E3 we were outraged and insulted at the blatant sexploitation of the "booth babes" used to make a "hard sell" of the "first person shooter," if you get our drift. However, after talking to these scantily clad, voluptuous sales toys, we were surprised to find that not a single one of them felt used or degraded at all by the whole process. In fact the consensus was, "Well, since I'm a smokin' hot turbo babe anyway, I may as well be getting paid for it. You wouldn't understand. And no, you can't lick my eyeball, perv." So in response to all of you who have already written in, almost certainly using only one hand, to ask when we were going to have this year's E3 T&A pictorial spread online, the answer is never! We've been there, we've done that, and no matter how much injustice we attempted to expose, nobody would just cooperate and feel exploited for us. So we're moving on. With this year's coverage we're turning over a new leaf. The conference isn't about tight buttocks and firm, basketball sized bosoms, it's about video games and the losers who play them. Exposes be damned, we're gonna meet some famous people.
