Fighting Games and Fighting? MvC3~

Its truly amazing sometimes how fighting game events can get so serious so fast. As a player, I understand that hype and shit talk bring to the atmosphere of the events and creates some serious competition. Why? Who wants to lose to the guy who just talked down to you? It's more rewarding to beat him and make'em look like the biggest fool on the planet for doubting your skills. Below is a display of this kind of atmosphere gone wrong featuring old school Marvel head Eric "Smooth Viper" and UVG Noel Brown.



Smooth Viper's Rebuttle and a brief insight on the history of Marvel 2 and shit talk.



There's always two sides to a story so perhaps UVG Noel Brown will post up his rebuttal on the situation at hand? Or will there be no rebuttal until after the race to 5 wins happens? Just have to wait and see~

Moon Diver!!

This game has truly taken me by storm! From the creator of the old school title Strider comes a new generation and evolution of game play while still paying homage to its predecessor. I've been playing the demo and it's truly something else. Great visuals, fast paced music, I mean everything sets the mood perfectly so far as I can tell. Maybe I'm just a big fanboy of these kind of games haha, but I will say I'm thankful for the creator of Strider to bring this out. It's been far to long for a game of this type to come out. Surprisingly though, its published by Square-Enix...? Go figure huh

Planet Zero's Marvel vs Capcom 3 Weekly Winner is Yours Truly

Pretty fun tournament overall to kick start my weekend last week. I'm still very torn about this game and how it works but oh well, I'll get the hang of it better sooner or later haha. If you can't tell, I'm extremely confused as to how I even won this thing with how random that game is lol. Oh yeah, I think Chris Chou will be uploading the end of the tournament on his youtube account soon enough and I'll check back in here and put it up for your viewing pleasure...or laughter...which ever suites the situation at hand for you~

The Oatmeal Book Signing

Here at Brazos Bookstore for a book signing with Matthew Inman aka The Oatmeal. I have no book to get signed but I figure it'd be cool to at least meet the man behind the madness.
