Update: the first two rounds of E3 preview are up, hooray! A hardware round-up and our first batch of game previews are now available for your perusal...

Sorry for the shameless plug, but several guys from various internety areas with which you may be familiar launched a new general gaming site called Idle Thumbs (http://www.idlethumbs.net/).Ã, It's more editorial and opinion-based than sites like Gamespot, and our reviews carry no numerical or symbolic ratings--essentially, we're all about subjectivity.Ã, We don't have TONS of content at the moment, but we really wanted to launch by E3, so bear with us.Ã, Our E3 content is going to be a little more off the wall than most sites', as we figure any super crazy exclusives are already going to be on Gamespot, IGN, etc.Ã,Â
Anyway, go visit Idle Thumbs (http://www.idlethumbs.net/) - We're probably all about video games!!
Also, post on the forums.Ã, Make yourself at home.
if you want lots of stuff for the site you should get in touch with Satanic Software...
can you do me a favour? it's really simple and it will differentiate you from all the other exclusives at E3...
Don't... Talk about the booth girls...
That's the only request I make... Good luck
Looks good so far. I'd probably only check it for the retro section of the site though...
<off-topic> I almost threw up just then, but it stopped in my throat... :(</off-topic>
Anyway, me equals registering now...
Most excellent!
Nice!!!
Looks really good ;)

Because you're all flaming heterosexuals!
Really nice site man, lots of good writers and amusing reviews.
Yeah right. We all that that the reason Double Fine haven't turned up is because it was actually a cover for a secret wedding between Chris and Tim that only close family and friends, and a few sneaky reporters knew about. I'm on to you bastards.
Hmph! The review on Another world got me all excited that they made a sequel or a remake. Then I saw that one has already been made!
Er... hi there. I'm Doug, and I'm the webmaster over at Idle Thumbs (as well as at Adventure Gamers). I just felt the need to state that the booth girls annoy the hell out of me :)
Whoa. Marek's Deus Ex 2 review is as if I had written it myself. Except it had a rich vocabulary and good grammar.
/me gives an idle thumb up
Hey, asshole!!!!

I crashed your goddamn wedding!!
...What?! The lighting was kinda funny.
I managed to read the GTA violence article (the first bit anyways) and was really amused. Other stuff like the flying goose thing confused me-I couldn't tell if that was some weird game being reviewed or what.
Lovely! Absolutely lovely!

Cool site, very nice design! The reviews i've read so far have been pretty enjoyable :)
Joke?
Kingz art is very stylized. I like. What is his obsession with drawing hands?
Thumbs are difficult to draw.
We hear.

In this case, because we told him to.
Thanks for the positive responses, people.Ã, It's absurd that we still don't have E3 content, but E3 was an absolutely insane week of getting lost, getting into car accidents, things being stolen, computers not working properly, etc., etc.Ã, Don't worry, we have stuff to write.Ã, It will be written.Ã, You will read it.Ã, Please.

Yeah, Spaff is slightly out of his mind.Ã, That article is just a general "welcome to the site" sort of thing, believe it or not.
Seems like you have plenty to write about... ;D

You should have a link to Idle Thumbs in your signature :)
Thanks for all the kind words about the site. I'm glad someone is reading it... I wonder if I have an account here...

Done.
Sorry for the continued pimpage, but we finally have some more new content (http://www.idlethumbs.net) over at Idle Thumbs (dot net). Check it out for more E3 impressions, a feature on a game you've almost certainly never heard of until now (Uncle Roy is All Around You), and a bizarre picture gallery of me demonstrating just how hardcore and extreme the new N-Gage is.
