It was taken (not that I saw the photographer) after the Sony press conference at E3 this year. Most of the crown had left and I was recording a piece to camera in front of the Playstation logo (which is behind me, not seen in this pic).
We were all standing at a table enjoying the remains of the refreshments (those smoothie things were alright) after the conference, and we couldn't help but be amused by/identify with your plight as a lone reporter with a tripod.
Glad you didn't take the "or this guy" remark the wrong way - it wasn't targeted at you so much as E3 in general, and the fact that it has gone from an over-the-top party to a parade of worn out journalists making the best of what they have.
See you again next year - assuming E3 still exists.
@Tyler. Why didn't you guys include prince of persia, Resistance 2, and Bioshock in the top 28 games still to come? I'm kinda pissed tthat bioshock wasn't on the list.
This year's E3 unfortunately was my first one. And it was horrible. My highlight of the trip was actually when Ubisoft showed us what games girls like in their press conference. I was that random chick cracking up maniacally in the crowd. And no offense to you reporters, but ya'll need to lose some weight.
@Jajudoman001: You may have wanted to post this comment on that article - I didn't write it, so I don't want to speak for anyone. I will say that Bioshock was probably not included because it isn't technically a "new" game. New to the PS3, yes, but a lot of us have already played it. It is great, and I hope PS3 owners love it.
