  <title>E3 Sony 2006/Giant enemy crab</title>
  <content>&lt;h2&gt;Background&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The &amp;#8220;giant enemy crabs&amp;#8221; meme spawned at 2006 Sony E3 press conference. The joke is that one of the game demos on display for Genji 2 (now known as Genji: Days of the Blade) for the PS3 was introduced as being based on &lt;strong&gt;actual Japanese history&lt;/strong&gt; just as a giant enemy crab appeared onscreen. We all assumed that we must have missed the day in high school history class when the discussion topic featured Japan versus the giant enemy crabs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Kaz Hirai The owner and &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;CEO&lt;/span&gt; of Sony acheived internet fame through his press conference where he stated that the Playstation 3 would be &amp;#8220;$599.99 American dollars&amp;#8221; and &amp;#8220;Ridge Racer&amp;#8221;.&lt;/p&gt;
