My favorite story about Coola is how he actually got his name.  He talks about xbox live, the networking and security.  He also gives his impression of Gears of War and Viva Pinata.  And he's not a fan of the PS3! 
Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?

I think so, Brain...but me and Pippi Longstocking? What would the kids look like?  (Classic Pinky and the Brain!)

Nice interview, but the only interesting thing he had to say was how he got his name.  He failed to elaborate on exactly what it is he doesn't like about the PS3 or the Wii.

In my opinion, Sony has failed in ignoring their fan base, proclaiming themselves above all else, and failing deliver any legitimate gaming software.  I don't think Nintendo really left us behind, they just never grew up.  Those of us who grew up playing Nintendo games are all adults now, so we have different expectations from our games. Nintendo isn't particularly interested in catering to just an adult demographic, so they make games for everybody.

Indeed, the strongest aspect of the 360 and Windows Vista platform is the software library.  You actually said that for him because he seemed unable to articulate it on the fly.  Cool segment, though. Short and sweet.
PS3 would be okay if they had more than 1 game to play. There's some good stuff coming up like Motorstorm and Heavenly Sword, but still it's just not enough to validate a $600 purchase, especially with the 360 doing so well software wise. I know a couple of people who bought the PS3 at launch and they say they haven't turned it on in 2 months. Yikes. And as always... Gears of War for the win.
No more talking about Viva Pinata....Man Law! Big Smile
Yeah even I kinda want to check it out, and I normally don't like cutesy games. But this just looks fascinating to me.
I'm telling you, just pick it up, keep and open mind and play it.  Thank me later.

I tried it and liked it! its a great game. Very first little pinyat to visit my garden i bashed it on the head. I didnt know i 'wasnt' suposed to do that. =)

Sometimes when you are put on the spot like that, its not as easy to be articulate.

Keep up the good work Coola. Maybe ill get a chance to meet you in the future.

peace out,
