Overly Positive

We geeks all know that after a weekend filled with either gameplaying, roleplaying, techplaying, or any other playing, that going back to work or school on Mondays is just the dumps. When the HR lady in “Office Space” talks about a “case of the Mondays“, it is just one truism in a bunch of generally crappy things that happen as the result of starting the week off.

Well here are Overly Positive, we are all about giving you your week a sunny-side up boost, so here’s this week’s “Case of the Mondays” cure.

E3 is here, folks. Yep, the annual electronics and gaming show, sometimes maligned for its lack of fire and/or content for developers, is back in force, and today is day one.

We’re bound to see some interesting things out of the show, and some stuff has already emerged, from Square’s announcement about its new bloody hack-em-up Neir, to a Fat Princess and Ghostbusters demo on the horizon, to a Left 4 Dead 2 achievement page leak, and Cooking Mama coming back for Christmas (C’mon, even the Wii has stuff going on, see?). And of course, there are big reveals like Kojima’s new maybe-metal-gear-possibly game as well.

G4 of course has live coverage and all your favorite sites are no doubt out there getting the info on everything gaming. It’ll be a 3 day extravaganza of new and interesting things on the horizon, so set your DVRs, fire up your Google Readers, and be glad this week is starting, not sad. By the end of the week, I’ll bet you’ll find something to be excited about.
