This is the pinnacle of the entire series, IMO. Yes, the game is super easy, but all the characters just come together to make something special. Every scene, every character feels like a real person. And, way to zero in on the game not beating you over the head with the subtleties of the characters. I still come back…

Aladdin’s Castle was definitely a chain. I grew up in Central IL, and there were a few malls around, and a few different ones had Aladdin’s Castle as their arcade (Replay being the other one.). Fond memories of playing Killer Instinct, Mortal Kombat 2, the Vs. Series games and Tekken throughout the years there.

I was incredibly fortunate to grow up with a best friend who’s dad loved buying arcade machines and bought a 2 Player Maximum Hangtime cabinet. I beat every team in the game with my custom character, and the game gets UNFAIR at later levels. The other team will start every quarter with only one shot to make before…

I’m not hating on this game nearly as hard as a lot of people out there, in fact, I have the game preordered. Now, should the game have come as a pack in title? Definitely. But I can see the value of this game. This seems like the perfect pick up and play party game you can bust out for non-gamers. I have a group of…

Ultimate fat guy option: Dip em’ in Funfetti Icing. You’ll assuredly go into some sort of coma, but it’s worth it.

Counterfeit cartridges are a big problem. I’m a retro game collector, and amongst higher dollar games, they run rampant. Typically, if I’m looking at spending over 75 dollars or so on a game, I ask to open the the cartridge up and get a look at the board to make sure what I’m getting is the genuine article.

Oh, also pulling for Super Turbo. I still feel like ST is one of the finest fighting games ever made. It’s still a shifting landscape in terms of tiers, to this day, because the game is just that deceptively deep.

Marvel 3 is gonna win that, hands down, but I’m rooting for Windjammers and Arms.

Came here to comment this. Cracked Black Pepper and Olive Oil Triscuits are the truth. I can eat em straight up.

I love seeing this. Duck Hunt is my character of choice in Smash 4, and he gets almost no competitive love. I obviously didn’t pick him because he was a competitive powerhouse, I picked him because I had the most fun playing as him (Well, and he annoys my roommates to no end.)

Mike.... Your team. Woof.

Definitely check out the subreddit for the game, they have a lot of good guides for getting started (And, well, a fair amount of vitriol for Ariana Grande even being in the game, but ignore that.)

I see that, and I’ll raise a you a Judy Bagwell on a Pole match.

And Virgil is the menace of the convention scene, as he seems to be at EVERY convention, charging way too much for anything, and being weirdly aggressive. Less Virgil, more Ron Simmons.

Titanfall 2 deserves a lot more love. Got it as a gift for Christmas, and I’ve really only touched the campaign so far, but man, what a solid campaign. I’m excited to jump into MP when I have some more time.

The Gang Buys a Boat isn’t top 10? Garbage list.

Tiers exist because players find that certain sets of advantages offered by a character happen to be more advantageous than a set of advantages from another character. That doesn’t stop a lower tier from beating a higher tier character, and it’s more impressive when it does happen, because, that means that a player…

Yes, I get that MMA talks about the styles being blended, but not everyone trains in the same styles. You’re just arguing semantics for semantics sake.

Alright, let’s take it from this point:

A professional sprinter wears Nike shoes, and some of his competitors wear Addidas, some wear New Balance, and some wear Under…

I look at it like this with fighting games. Everyone goes in having the full roster of characters available to them, and they make a selection, and more often than not, a pro will focus on a character, maybe 2, to play the game with, because learning a character to a pro level takes a serious time investment. So, if…

I’m irritated with her being in the game, I’ll admit, but I get why this is happening. Not quit the game levels of irritation, but irritated.

But if I pull her instead of Orlandu on the upcoming banner for him... Well, it ain’t gonna be good.

You could even say the Buc stopped at David Irving.
