February 26th will see Midnight Strikes Twice returning to Double Midnight Comics. This time the game will be Tekken 8. Fun fact: somehow, this is the first time we’re running the game for a tournament at DMC! Strange how that slipped through the cracks. www.start.gg/NHFGC-MST

Muhuwahahahahahahahaha…. FOOL!! YOU’VE MADE ME FEEL YOUNGER BY REMINDING ME OF THE FACT METAL GEAR SOLID 2 CAME OUT BEFORE I WAS BORN!! I SHALL LIVE FOREVER!!!!!!

I will now proceed to not look at social media for the next 36 hours as I let the Sonic brainrot consume me.

For those wondering what game I was alluding to:

Been putting some time into a few fighters. A little ranked play in Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising, hitting 2 of the PS profile tournaments for Nickelodeon All Star Brawl 2, Duels of Fortune recently got an update, and of course Rivals of Aether II just dropped today.

You can absolutely see the improvement, both in visuals and the amount of gameplay sauce SB3 seems to have. I cannot accept the apology as I don’t live in Eastern Europe, but I do think you’ve got a good game on your hands.

Hold up this looks peak. Checking out the whole Slav Brothers series now.
