Morning Discussion

by Alice O'Connor, May 05, 2009 7:00am PDT

With Plants vs. Zombies not unlocking on Steam for another four hours, I suppose we might as well do some video games in the meantime. Today at Shacknews I shall discover whether it's worse to babysit someone or to cover for them.

I suspect covering is worse. Sure, babysitting means I have to wipe their snotty noses and remind them to eat lunch, but when a new Katamari Damacy trailer arrives and glee fills their ruddy jam-smeared ruddy faces, oh it warms the cockles of my heart.

Street Fighter 4 Tournament

So, first week is over and almost everyone played their game. After some suggestions, I made a new Double Elimination bracket, so if you have lost in the first round YOU'RE NOT OUT! Granted, if you want to be out, just tell your next match up and I will give them a bye. There weren't enough people to do this in the PS3 bracket, so that is staying the same.

Fight!
