If so, he was a major moron. He had the gall to say that Heihachi’s “prissy punches” had no place in Soul Calibur II despite how ridiculously powerful he was in that game.
This article is not worth opening a thread about it and giving it attention.
20 more years!

EGM was good for the first couple years, before Steve Harris sold out to a major publisher and left the magazine. EGM has been a sterile corporate rag for 20 years now.

Wait…this was back in 2009?
No wonder it was in print.
Ir-fucking-relevant now…Andrew Bitch.
Pretty much.
I see. I thought it was recent because I was going through twitter and Fubarduck was talking about it and the twitpic was dated recently. Since it’s not, might as well have a mod lock it.
Oh, the article in question is new as it was created this year. The clip is from a podcast back in 2009 but the quotes are from 2012.
Real Talk: I used to respect the shit outta EGM, they were a goal I set for myself.
The more time I spend pursuing this career path the more I find that there are very few good people to look up to, and fewer places that set a good example.
Ok thanks for clarifying. Sounds like he has a huge chip on his shoulder to finally write an article about it now years later. Then again they probably are really hurting for readers at this point.
This seems likely.
I, for one, would like to read the article at least.
And FYI: the current EGM is not the classic EGM. It has the name but everything about it is a shell of it’s former self. Do not take it seriously, it’s a paper IGN now. Many of the old crew be at Bitmob now.
No, the AUDIO is from 2009 about some other shit.
The EGM article is about the cross assault controversy.
How can you give a fuck about an article that starts with “I like fighting games, but I always hated the fighting game community” ?
Yeah…I now noticed it.
Anywhere I can read the entire article? I can’t seem to find it.
It’s in the first post of the thread, the resolution is high enough to read. It gets a little blurry round the sides but it seems fine.
Yeah…it’s still too blurry for me.
Can only make 1/2 of it.
So this hoopla is about a few text and nobody actually read the thing? No transcript or anything out there?
I mean seriously.
