23 June 2008

I’m pretty dorked up for this game. As a longtime UFC fan and video game nerd, this looks remarkably promising. It’s going to all come down to controls, though.. there’s so many fighting styles and reversals, that the system would almost NEED to be complex. I’m excited to see how this turns out.

Today, it relaunches as more or less a personal blog. This is its simplest and most basic incarnation, and I don’t see that changing any time soon. You’ll find my writings on [...]
