CES officially kicks off tomorrow in Las Vegas, and I’m sad to report that I won’t be attending this year. Instead, Dale North and Conrad Zimmerman will be on the scene to bring you all of the news on the latest game-related gadgets and the games themselves.
But here’s why I’mreallyglad I stayed home — cupcakes. Third-party accessory manufacturer Nyko sent me a box of six big cupcakes to promote its CES presence, which will include a Wii charging dock and a cooling station for the PlayStation Slim. Full disclosure — I’m eating these things. Red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting? There’s nothing to dobuteat them.
Ironically, had I actually been headed to CES this year, I would have missed this cupcake munching opportunity. Instead, I’d return from Vegas with a hangover and sore legs only to find a box of stale confections on my door step. Again, I’m glad I stayed home.
Enjoy your porn awards, platinum-plated HDMI cables, free drinks, and 3D televisions, guys. I’ll be sitting on my couch playingBioShock 2preview code with red velvet crumbs all over my chest. Nom freakin’ nom.
