I don't really have the time (or the interest?) to watch this video, but Australia (well, South Australia) has it's own party... or something for gaming. It's not really related to this thread, but in some ways it is?

This guy's wearing orange on St. Patty's day, I just can't take him seriously. 
Not everyone is going to agree on what's shovel ware and what's not. People have different tastes. For example, if Activision wants to shell out Beatles Rock Band, which is essentially just another skin with new features, why would a die hard Beatles/Rock Band player pass that up? People are paying for this crap because they want it.
