Salty Battles 7

First of all I wish to apologize for the lack of new material that has been added to this blog. I have been really stressed out and now find myself with another writing obligation (I am writing for Local Battles and I have already attended the first Big Two tournament and traveled to Local Battles twice). The material I have comes not in the form of a review but rather a stream from Local Battles Salty Battles 7 tournament. Salty Battles is a small event that generally features Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition and Mortal Kombat 9 tournaments. Unfortunately the small attendance for SSFIV AE and MK9 meant that the only tournament that was going to be held was UMvC3. The tournament started around 2 hours late but the matches were crazy and I got my first chance to commentate matches (admittedly I am not good...yet, I hope to have a chance to commentate again). It was LB| ChrisG who ultimately won.
The Grand Finals of Salty Battles 7

I plan on attending the Northeast Championships and Salty Battles 8 so I hope to have a lot of stuff to write about/publish so keep track of this website, Local Battle's website or sites like Eventhubs.com or Shoryuken.com for updates.

Chronicles of Dunk: Pilot

First of all sorry for the time between this and my previous post but things are getting hectic so I will try to update the blog with new content at least once a week.

One day I was bouncing ideas off a friend and we came up with the idea to make a video series that is essentially a game playthrough with funny/stupid commentary (nothing innovating) and after hooking up a capture card and figuring out how XSplit works I have the pilot episode to show. We have been playing Final Fantasy X so we decided to start recording in the middle of the game (we only had about 10 hours logged in and were up to Mi'hen Highroad so we didn't miss too much). It breaks down quickly due to many people showing up so I was going to upload this later as an outtakes kind of video but just decided to upload it now.


For those of you who might be wondering why we chose this name. The story is that "dunking" has become something of a meme in my group of friends due to this video.

Look for more of these videos. I think they should be cranked out at a fairly fast pace.
