I think it's called the PiiWii HD.

Well I suppose if I ever find the money to go to E3 then I'll find out :P.

What the hell is shovelware?

It's a grave digger sim. You have to see how many graves you can dig before your shovel breaks, using the Wiimote. A bit glitchy, but it works decently from what few reviews there have been of the series. I think they're up to Shovelware VIII now.

Google, motherfucker. Do you speak it?

Well, I guess you can't actually speak it, as it's not a language. I should have said "do you use it?", as it's a service, not a language.

Unless Google also refers to some sort of programming language they used to make the search engine, in which case my first statement would be accurate and appropriate.

But even then, that's really a written thing, isn't it? Can you speak a language that is only written? If there's no spoken elements to it, can it really be a language? Even if there are some parts of it in English, does that make it a separate language unto its own, or because it uses an existing language but in an entirely different way, is it still its own language?

For that matter, even if it was a language, and you could speak it, wouldn't you just sound like you were repeating random words and numbers and such, to represent the programming language? To anyone else, it would sound like gibberish. It has its own grammar and syntax, so it must be a language in that regard.

Damn, this is some heavy stuff for so late in the evening.

But still, it's not like you can't look it up, right?

Sounds like my kinda game.

That's because I am an idiot.

am i the only person that doesn't buy this story? smells like bullshit to me. a late april fools joke. my multiple sources have anonymously confirmed that next month the pope will reveal he is secretly a black ninja.

[The Damned]

No one does late April Fools jokes. A bit before is fine, on the actual day is the whole point, but two weeks later? Not happening. No one does that.

If it was just IGN making these claims, I'd ignore the whole thing (seeing how they like to just make shit up sometimes), but since there are multiple reports from sites that aren't known for reporting bullshit, I think it has some validity.

But we won't know for sure until it's actually announced.
