Here is a resurected bit from the story… It’s all very tongue and cheek (or is it cheeky?)Sunrise

Riverboat Horseracing Facility Fails
BILOXI, MS—Owners of the nation’s first riverboat-horseracing facility announced its closure Tuesday, minutes after the inaugural race. “I guess we planned it pretty poorly,” said Ronald Frisch, president and CEO of Gambling Concepts Unlimited. “We figured that once we opened the dining-room doors, the horses would know to race through the grand buffet room to the other side of the boat.”
Twenty-five people were trampled to death in the chaos that resulted, and eight horses drowned when they fell from the riverboat’s lower deck. Gambling Concepts Unlimited officials said they still plan to hold next month’s airborne rodeo as scheduled.

Gamer wins back virtual booty in court battle
A court in China has ordered an online computer games company to return virtual belongings to a player whose account was hacked and looted.
The Chaoyang District People’s Court in Beijing ruled last Thursday that the company must return the player’s virtual stash because it had allowed the theft to take place in the first place. Li Hongchen, 24, spent two years and more than 10,000 yuan ($1,210), amassing a cache of virtual money and weapons in the online game “Hongyue”, or “Red Moon”.In February, however, Hongchen found his belongings had been pilfered by a hacker who gained access through the game’s central servers. The software firm behind the game, Beijing Arctic Ice Technology Development, responded that his possessions had no real world value and represented only “piles of data”. Hongchen took the company to court requesting 10,000 yuan in compensation.
“I exchanged the equipment with my labour, time, wisdom and money, and of course they are my belongings,” Hongchen told the Chinese news site Xinhuanet.

Broke Dad Makes Son PlayStation 2 For Christmas
DAYTON, OH—Determined to make his son’s Christmas dreams come true despite financial woes, David McManus spent three hours in his garage Monday constructing a PlayStation 2 from scrap lumber and transistor-radio components.
“I can’t wait to see the look on Andy’s face when he unwraps this,” said McManus, lovingly painting a “2″ onto the front of the handmade video-game console. “I didn’t get to sand the controllers as smoothly as I’d have liked, but still.” McManus added that he hopes he can make a “Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2″ CD in time for Andy’s birthday in March.

Boong-Ga Boong-Ga.
This is one of the most bizarre video games i’ve ever seen, and so of course it must be Japanese. The object of the game appears simple, you have to jam a big plastic finger up someone’s rear end. Why? I have no idea. Built into the cabinet is a bent over backside, and on the screen in front of you appears the expression of the person as you shove the finger inside. The harder you shove the finger inside, the more points you score. From the brochure: “This is a fun game of spanking the people that make your life miserable. When you spank the character that you choose to punish, the face expression of the character will change as they scream and twitch in pain. The funny face expressions will make people laugh and relieve stress.” Riiiight. Well in any case it has made me laugh. Although I don’t understand why they call it “spanking”, since you’re actually shoving a finger in someones butthole. Characters include: Ex Girlfriend, Ex Boyfriend, Gangster, Mother-In-Law, Gold Digger, Prostitute, Child Molester, and Con Artist.
They should also include: your ex-Gay Lover, Your Boss and President Bush.

E3 was a gas!
I returned to the E3 convention after a 3-year hiatus this Wednesday and walked away 9 hours later really glad that I went. For those that don’t know E3 stands for ‘The Electronic Entertainment Expo’ and is the yearly showcase for the video game industry. It was the first day that the exhibit floor would be open. Thousands of geeks, sales and marketing dicks, and press were clamoring to be the first ones in. Once the doors opened I made my way to the Nintendo area, not really having to walk but more like letting the crowd move me to my destination. There were more than enough stations available for me to tryout all their featured games. The thing I was most impressed with was the connectivity games with the Game Cube and Game Boy Advanced featuring Zelda and Pac Man themes. A lot of fun for 4 players!
The day was filled with exploring all the different games by the major and some minor game companies. The show was highlighted by a profusely of PR babes in short skirts showing the geeks all the nuances of their featured game. It was all FUN and a great homecoming for me after walking away from the game industry some years ago. I think I’ll do it again next year!E3, gaming, news, Sushi Bandit
