http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/9/2009/12/500x_jonas-bros_2_.jpgLast night's episode of The Colbert Report (http://kotaku.com/tag/thecolbertreport/) featured a special shout-out the Xbox 360 (http://kotaku.com/tag/xbox360/) during the Tip/Wag segment. I guess we should all thank the Jonas Brothers for bringing it to Mr. Colbert's attention with their public support (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/20/business/media/20adco.html) for the console.
Colbert presses the point with a look at a couple of the games that highlight the "family" oriented nature of the Xbox 360 — first with a look at Left 4 Dead (http://kotaku.com/tag/left4dead/) ("The family that plays together, stays together."). Then with an examination of the values imparted to players via Grand Theft Auto IV (http://kotaku.com/tag/grandtheftautoiv/) ("Where yes you can pay a prostitute to work your crank. But then you can mow her down with your car to get the money back. That's just fiscal responsibility.").
Hey, I lol'd.
