As my two favorite things in life are fighting games and sports, I loved Compete. It really was the perfect intersection for me. Best of luck in your next ventures!

I envy you sir, my daughter was born mid September and the only chance I thought I had to play a game she started crying before the loading screen finished.  I took that as a sign that my gaming time from here on out will be significantly reduced.  But dammit if she isn’t the cutest thing

After the sudden shuttering of Splinter, I grew nervous when there wasn’t any new content from Deadspin after the Freddie Kitchens post.  Don’t leave us Deadspin, you’re my sanity from my boss asking me how to use Excel for the 300th time.  

Gad to see you writing about this tournament Ian. Alot of the other fighting game specific blogs didn’t really talk in depth about this tournament, even though it sent a big message to the rest of the Tekken community that this has truly become an international game.  

Figured I'd add this article as a reference.  The best saga storyline would be to face his dad at Evo

I just started Spider-Man, the web singing is addicting.  I’ve barely done missions, just swing around the city grabbing backpacks

I haven’t seen a better use of this meme

Kaz is one of those players who truly has his own style too. He always plays so oppressive and never let’s the other player get a chance to play. And then when you do think you have a chance to pressure him, he is ready with the invincible reversal and start pressuring you all over again.

I would show up hungover at 6am, and ride passenger in an ice truck while dropping off palettes of ice bags around the city.

I called Weber and they immediately sent out a replacement part no questions asked. In just my couple weeks of use, the grill has been…

It was such a classic, it’s one of those shows that eventually someone will try to reboot, but it won’t have that same magic that the original did

Obligatory addition

If you’re not playing as the Tropical Girls, then you’re not playing to win

Even if you’re not a fighting game fan, Desk’s combo videos are so well done they’re a blast to watch

+1 I haven’t heard that name in forever, but man she would be proud watching this

Their definitely worth it, I bought them once not knowing what to expect and I was really surprised. They’re “I ate the whole box” good.

I will forever hate Josh Smith for always standing in the corner in NBA 2k10 and being left wide open and missing every 3 point attempt possible. But then again he would do the exact same thing in real life so I learned to appreciate how well 2k made him a waste of space
