when you gonna have me on that shit!?
HELLO FRIENDS,
I come to you from Antigua, Guatemala. I am about halfway through my trip. I saw most of the KOF cabs that exist in the world I am pretty sure. How are fighting games? I am so detached from the esports world (are we esports yet?) that even thinking about the concept of a hadoken makes my brain twist wildly with confused rage, or something.
Someone pls tell Aquasilk I love him. Talk to you in another month or so!
Regards,
Biblethump

Ziff Davis bought IGN and they're selling IPL. Esports people are talking like IPL is gonna be no more after IPL6.

Hey guys, I just published a new video:

The Jaxel Power Hour - Episode 03
In this video, I discus "Why are 3D fighting games not as popular as 2D?"
If you guys like the video, can you please share it with others? tweet it out? send it in as news to your favorite fighting game websites?

Eh, I feel like you missed the mark. If you want to argue the 3D vs. 2D field, you need to take on Seth Killian:
http://insomnia.ac/commentary/domination_101/2d_vs_3d/
http://insomnia.ac/commentary/domination_101/2d_vs_3d_seth_responds/
Seth successfully conveys why I enjoy 2D fighting games over 3D ones. Not to mention that all of the 3D games on the market have mediocre to awful character modeling, mundane movesets, and undergraduate levels of animation style. Soul Calibur is definitely the least bad of them all, though.
I actually disagree with nearly every point you make in your video, haha. Especially the instant gratification part. Or maybe I disagree with your opposition between "dexterity" and "mental acuity", as though 2D fighters are just lots of hand movements with no brain activity involved.

ZD is trying to sell IPL for the simple reason that they can't see any way to make money from it. Why would an EVO league be any different?

fuckin' called it, man
Soul Calibur 2 had Link in it.
East Coast doesn't actually mean East Coast really, it means the greater NYC area.

Georgia is dirty south, plus wikipedia is not credible. Yes Florida is technically east coast, but most people differentiate the northeast and southeast. SEC country is like a whole different world compare to the rest of the united states.
If people want to make such distinctions it would be best to refer to the northeast area as the north east and the southeast area as the southeast. Saying florida isn't the east coast is factual incorrect and that's what im debating not whether or not fighting game community lingo considers it as such.
I knew someone would pull the "wikipedia isn't credible card."
Welp, back to fighting games and things that matter.

It's just the South wanting to be the South. EC and WC have more in common than the SEC regions.

Wait a minute this is all about what HONZO said?
WHY THE FUCK DOES ANYONE GIVE 2 CENTS WHAT HONZO SAID. DAMMIT I've been baited.....
It's because the two big arcade scenes were (and are) NYC and LA due to the population density. So East Coast/West Coast in the FGC centered around those two locations.
Cause everyone agreed with him or something like that.
His bullshit honestly gets annoying but you're right.
