One of the best people in the Fighting Game Community, Mike "BrolyLegs" Begum, passed away a couple of days ago. James takes the time to talk about BrolyLegs, and hopefully let as many people know as possible about what made him such a wonderful person. Please remember this wonderful and inspirational soul.

IT'S DANGEROUS TO GLORIFY THE EXECUTION IN OLDER GAMES!

And James just didn't agree. First of all, we are all better at Fightin... actually, you know what, just watch the video. LOL! == TIME STA...

WHY ARE WE DEBATING THIS AT ALL?!? The arguments continue on Social Media if Capcom Cup should focus on an offline Points System or continue to try to get as diverse of a global representation as possible.

YOU SAID YOU'D PLAY IF THEY FIXED MATCHMAKING! WHERE ARE YOU?!? No, seriously, though, James really wants to know what it is about KOF that makes it so you don't try it out?

DOES THE BAD OUTWEIGH THE GOOD? OR ARE WE NOT EVEN THAT BAD? The topic of the FGC's "toxicity" has reared its ugly head once again, and as a person who tried very hard to make the FGC as welcoming as possible, this common complaint is very saddening for James.
