Spong has caught the mood of the likes of me regarding the news about Snoop Dogg's launch of Hip-Hop Gaming league that's sponsored by Xbox Live and Sprite.

It says;
In news that is so achingly 'lifestyle' as to be utterly nauseating, Snoop Dogg has sold his soul to launch the Hip-Hop Gaming League sponsored by Xbox Live and Sprite, showing that the games industry can still shock when it comes to cocaine-fuelled marketing idiots making decisions to greenlight projects of epic pointlessness.
The event has been commemorated by a shocking staged press conference (at which the games press is portrayed as good looking professional adults - a classic error) at which Snoop outlines his latest way, replacing his dabblings in exploitative hardcore pornography, of funding planned further purchases of golden bathtubs to show off on MTV Cribs.
Well said! There is no place for such gimmickry like this in gaming world. It sucks big time really.
Thanks Spong
