MTV Invades Austin, Harvey Smith Breaks Stuff
We already mentioned why MTV Gamer's Week probably doesn't suck like you thought, and Stephen Totilo's blog now points out ways to easily see a bunch of the _good_ video content screened this week.
As he explains: "Yesterday we ran the first half of my tour of the Austin gaming scene, half of that written for MTVNews.com and the other half airing on MTV and at MTVNews.com. I could write a long post about how strongly I felt about telling the story of an American city rich in gaming culture. Or I could just point out that the video piece has Harvey Smith smashing a light fixture with a scooter and Richard Garriott rapping. Do I really need to say more?"
There are actually a mess of extra updates on Totilo's personal site, directly linking you to written and video coverage of all the neater content to come out of MTV's game coverage this week - which naturally emanated from his direction, and included the aforementioned "TV exclusive that features interviews with the [gold] farmers in China and a look inside the so-called [MMO] sweatshops?" Neat.

I'd like to read Totilo's stuff, but I'm not watching a 20 second animated MTV logo for each one.
