It was easy to ignore the booth babes at E3, not that video games will always win in an attention contest against scantily clad women, but when the women are professional bimbos and the televisions are really big, it's not much of a contest. (Although, to be fair, I have been told the booth babe presence at this year's E3 was substantially less than in previous years.)

The one exception was that since Infogrames decided to rebrand themselves with the pillaged Atari brand, there were a bunch of women running around with red shirts that had Atari symbols on them. Whenever I saw them, I couldn't help but see their red-shirted chests and think, "wow, look, Atari's back! And they brought boobs!"
