Ashtyn is definitely the casual gamer in the family. A game fan since she owned an Atari, Ashtyn can remember when her brother rigged the television so he wouldn’t lose his Super Mario Bros. game.

As of now, she is into the Wii and Nintendo DS, though she’s certain the games for PS3 and Xbox 360 are more appealing.

Sony recently announced at E3 that they would be phasing out the 40GB bare bones Playstation3 for the more hardcore, 80GB unit. While the 80GB was originally more expensive, the new 80GB systems will be offered at the standard, barebones, $399 price. Sure, it sounds great, but those of you interested in things like backwards compatibility won’t find it with the new 80GB systems and this has been one of the biggest complaints about the cheaper priced system. Well that and the lack of media card slots.
What has been announced by the senior VP of Marketing, Peter Dille, is that this new 80GB $399 PS3 is going to be the only PS3 available in North America. The 40GB and the Metal Gear Solid 4 80GB models will be phased out. These models are no longer being shipped to stores, so once they are purchased, they are history.
It’s also important to note that what you see in the 40GB you will get in the 80. The main difference will be the bigger drive. None of the new Sony PS3s will have backwards compatibility. Sony does not feel this is a necessary feature because of strong sales to the cheaper PS3 system. Of course, this could be that people wanted to enjoy the PS3 and couldn’t afford the more expensive model. Regardless, Dille explained it to GameSpot by saying, “We find that people who care deeply about backwards compatibility usually already have a PS2.”

Born Again Baby Killer Denied Release
The craziest bitch in the Manson family has been denied early release from prison according to TMZ. Susan Atkins, known as one of the most prominent females in the Manson family (famous for cutting out Sharon Tate’s baby and writing Pig on the wall with the blood) has been in prison, along with Charlie and the others for decades. Now, Susan is a born again Christian who has only six months to live due to brain cancer. Susan wants out on the compassionate release program. Funny thing is, the crazy bitch almost made it out.
Looks like the L.A. County DA is the one to thank for her remaining locked up where she belongs. He said, “[Atkins] has failed to demonstrate genuine remorse and lacks insight and understanding of the gravity of her crimes.”
With that in mind, she will be remaining in prison for life, as planned.
Baby News
Paris Hilton is an ignorant, ugly slut that wants to get pregnant because she thinks that will make her popular again. So, while begging her puppy dog boyfriend, Benji, to knock her up, she spends her time wearing outfits that try to fool us into thinking that she might be pregnant. Seriously, like no one would know if the end of the world were approaching? Someone needs to do the world a favor and laser her uterus out while she’s trying to get her groove on in Vegas.
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are reportedly turning down deals for pictures of their first born, Sunday Rose Urban Kidman. It has not yet been released whether or not they will offer pictures, but it is being rumored that if they do, they might be given out for free. What a novel idea, considering bidding is as high as $3 million for Matthew McConaughey’s new son Levi and as high as $20 million for Brad and Angie’s twins, Knox and Vivienne.

Coming up for the PS3 is the dazzling graphic masterpiece, God of War 3. This teaser trailer doesn’t show much at a mere 56 seconds, but it gives you an idea of what to expect, at least partially. Either way, it’s worth checking out if you’re a fan of the series or want to see what’s coming to the PS3.

I have to admit, after seeing the trailer for this, I couldn’t wait to check out the full game. Unfortunately, I have a little while until that day comes.

This year’s Bravo Awards were hosted by Kathy Griffin. The less than liked comedian did at least one, semi-humorous skit and had plenty to say during her stint. Here are some of the most, off-the-wall shots from the festivities.
And the Award goes to Sluttiest Bitch on TV!
I didn’t watch the awards, but yeah this looks like Tila won some award. I’m not sure of the purpose of the Bravo awards, but I always thought they were given to the winner of the best shows on Bravo. Either way, I can only imagine what this hooch won! Hooker of the year maybe?
