Sure, Kim's probably a busy man, keeping watch over the company's first party software releases, but his reaction to Game Informer's puzzlement over his shocker that one of the "most important, subtle announcements at the Xbox 360 briefing is that Resident Evil is coming to Xbox 360" is nothing short of comedy gold.

The exchange:

GI: But we knew that two years ago.

Kim: What?

GI: Resident Evil. It was shown at TGS two years ago.

Kim: No, but coming to Xbox 360.

GI: Yeah. It was at the press event.

Kim: I don't think so.

GI: I'm positive. I was there.

Kim: Really?

GI: It was shown at both press conferences.

Kim: That RE5 was coming to...?

Oh, Shane! Wait until Kim hears about the Microsoft's purchase of Rare! And that Scene It? is coming exclusively to the Xbox 360! He's going to be so pleased.

Thursday night, presidential hopeful Barack Obama spoke to the teeming crowds at an Austin, TX political rally about the upcoming election. In particular, Obama targeted the youth market in an attempt to get them to recruit their friends to his side with this rousing call to action.

"I want you to tell them, 'It's time for you to turn off the TV and stop playing GameBoy,'" Obama said. "We've got work to do."

I think it's very touching that Mr. Obama wants the kids of America to put down their antiquated gaming systems and work on the sorry state of the nation. Now if he could just convince the rest of them, you know, the ones who are actually using game devices from this century. Flynn De Marco
