The more I see of her, the more I am attracted to her. I already thought she was pretty attractive, but seeing her grapple on MMA HEAT, and seeing her on Attack of the Show…I’m pretty smitten.

I’d probably be just as smitten over Meisha Tate, I haven’t gone out of my way to check her out, but she did look pretty hot rasslin’ with Marloes.

I think she's hot.

Because she’s funny and kinda loud and kinda tough and beats people up and she seems like she’d be fun to hang around with, in addition to being pretty physically attractive. She’s also terribly confident and confidence is attractive to me. But, I’m a girl so I may have a different perspective on what makes other girls hot.

Haha. Well, I wasn’t a huge fan of the first two, just ended up playing them a few weeks before moving on. And this new one looks very much the same, so I’ll probably skip it. To be fair I’m not a big fan of sports or fighting games in general, so there’s that.

That's why they have demos

They are a DEMOnstration of something that will be similar to the final production. Given that it comes out next month, the demo is most likely a finished product.

No way. Too many polygons. Yes, it looks crappy by today’s standards, but N64 graphics were nowhere near that good.

Plus… he’s not exactly the most exciting fighter we’ve ever seen in the UFC… that also doesn’t help his case.

by Shnak on Jan 25, 2012 10:55 AM EST up reply actions  

Yeah. I don’t remember his first fight, but the last one against Pearson was a major stinker, mostly because of the fact that Assuncao was almost exclusively moving backwards and playing defense the whole time. It takes two to tango.. he had his chance in a televised slot, but he didn’t step up to fight.

Oh, right. So I guess you’re also not in the streaming video business either, right? So why do you give a damn about SOPA then?

Also, does Brittney realize that she can just pull those knobs off instead of covering them with tape? It’ll look better when she’s done, too.
