Faster than a speeding train wreck. Threespeech attacks Major Nelson, Gamerscoreblog, and freedom. (Okay the freedom is just there for effect)

Because I’m a brand new blogger with reliance on outside sites to spread the word, and because those sites have been so nice to me, I have to admit that I was a little apprehensive about writing this. Yesterday, I heard what was, quite possibly, the worst podcast ever: The Threespeech Podcast. Joystiq broke the ice in calling them out, which makes me feel a lot better about dissing these dudes. Hey I love an angry mob! I just prefer to stay in the back in case the cops come.For those that tuned out of Sony’s bland attempts at connecting to the peeps and earning street cred long ago, Threespeech is the “Unofficial Blog” of Playstation. Basically they’re trying to be what Gamerscoreblog is to Xbox without investing in any decent writers, or in this case, hosts.

Don’t believe me? Go get it and see for yourself. I’m not giving out links for this kind of crap. I haven’t heard anything this bad since Paris Hilton’s album.

Here are the raw notes that I took while listening to the podcast.

• I wonder if British folks find us Americans this difficult to understand.
• They just said hello to each other for 2 minutes.
• Can’t follow the intertwined sailor talk mixed with something about a newborn baby? Is this a podcast about sailors having babies? WTF?
• Lots of dead air. And throat clearing. But I think that’s an English thing.
• OMG this must be what hell is like. They’ll make me listen to this for eternity. I should try to be a better person.
• Could these guys sound any less excited to be there?
• Why are they laughing? They haven’t said anything funny. Nothing. This is madness. This is a joke. Phil Harrison is going to come on in a second and tell us all we’ve been punk’d. I’m being punk’d! Where’s Aston Kutcher?
• They just called either Major Nelson or Gamerscore Blog Slimy.
• Sony PR is straight to the point? LMAO!
• Wow. They just insulted the major. that’s going to cause some waves.

The rest of my notes included mostly groceries that I need to pick up and things I want to see in Las Vegas next week. Threespeech just humiliated Sony and once again proved that technology in the wrong hands can have disastrous consequences.

It has never ben Sony’s M.O. to bash the competition. More or less they just deny that the competition exists. I wonder how long its gonna take for those Threespeech links on the Sony Blog to come down. If they don’t, this might as well be coming from Sony themselves.
