  • 100%, I hate matchmaking. Give me old school server selections. Some of the best times I had in PvP was in Gears of War 1, where I’d get my teeth repeatedly kicked in by the same group of people and LEARN from what they did.

    “If I dodge this way instead of this way its more effective.” “They never use this specific weapon I like, maybe it actually sucks.”

    You don’t get that in matchmaking because you never see the same people again, you can’t learn from those more skilled at the game because of this. Unless I go watch youtube videos of people playing it that are better than me, I don’t get that sense of immersion. I hate watching videos of other people playing, I’d rather jump in, and study my enemy in a live environment.

















  • It was the year of our lord 1990, I was 5 years old, and the time was somewhere after midnight. I had snuck out of my room and into my grandparents basement to sneak some late night tv.

    The original Vampire Hunter D was playing and I had no idea what it was, but it was amazing. The guy had a hand that ATE things!!!

    I didn’t realize what it was until around 8th grade when I started getting into the standards of DBZ and Sailor Moon… I expanded drastically from there once I realized I could, spent around $4000 on manga throughout highschool and found a little hole in the wall DVD rental shop on the local college campus with a wall of anime DVDs and VHS tapes.
