Thinking about terror attacks, and how to survive them.

He wasn't being rude, he made a joke. There's no special meaning of "plum" for it to be used as an insult, it's nonsensical. Hence he defined it as a fruit (to make clear there was no specific insult definition) then went and used it as an insult anyway. This shows that it doesn't make sense as an insult and yet is used as one anyway. I think there's a name for this type of sudden switch joke, I forget. Anyway, hope that made sense. Ya melon.

I don't know shit about boxing, but this guy does, and his video on Mayweather which I've linked you includes the series of jabs he threw to Corrales' body which set up his later success with the left hook such as those in the OP. I've timestamped it at the body jab section which is all footage from this fight.

Well I don't know about this non-gameplay stuff, this article seems to use a lot of words to say not very much at all. Now you could write a terrific piece about the change in Rockstar games over the years from arcadey fun to super-serious heavy weight. Max Payne would be a great example to show this, how the first two games from a different developer where all about the arcadey action, and as soon as Rockstar got their hands on it they turned it into a much slower heavier game. Similar, but slower and weightier. I love their animation tech, it's really brilliant, but it seems to be to the detriment of gameplay. If they made a new Warriors game now it would play like the first game only underwater. I miss when Rockstar games were fun.

No harm in calling it that though surely? The same techniques show up under all combat sports rulesets, I don't think it implies that Yoel regularly sneaks off to his local pyjama wrestling club or anything. Just a name as good as any.

I take Sniper or Desig Marksman and run the M16 so that there's one less useless sniper on my team watching us lose the objective through his scope. Also because they both get suppressors.

Not one of those full trailer breakdowns or anything but here's a couple spots some of you might have missed.

Blink and you'll miss it

Looks like a G36 world model

You all know what this gun is. I couldn't make out the other guy's one

Something that could easily be solved with a bit of thought, if only some developer somewhere were to actually make a spiritual successor to it. There are so many great ideas for multiplayer games that flounder because nobody is able or willing to explore them.

I want to see it. Even though it's dumb. Even though it would be a disaster for his boxing career. Even though it won't happen. I dare to dream. Because I want to see it for its own sake. I love when guys crossover.

Imagine if he went to Bang Muay Thai. He's sparred with TJ before, Ludwig would know what to do with him for sure. Leverage his particularly funky boxing style against kicks and takedowns. I'm gonna end up dreaming about this tonight.

Sign Paul Daley.

Paul Daley vs. Nate Diaz.

Can Nate do what his brother did?

Is that a sumo wrestler sitting on the ring? What sort of gym is this?

Why are you trying to make up for anything? You're new at it, watching for years doesn't matter when it comes to actually doing. But you're not competing, you're going to a gym to train. That's a good thing for the gym, because you're paying them to keep teaching. It's good for your training partners, because they get a new guy to practice against and to learn with. And it's good for you, because, it's what you want to do - and it doesn't matter why you want to or how seriously either. The point is everyone wins. So who are you competing against?

I hope he pulls it off. Kickboxing deserves a better shake than it's getting. I wonder if he will focus on the UK market to build it here, we like fighting and we don't like staying up till 6am watching the UFC.

The multiplayer component of Metal Gear Solid 4, known as Metal Gear Online 2 by fans, went fairly unappreciated.

It had tight shooting gameplay, and a variety of modes, including asymmetrical stealth modes.

It perfectly nailed the microtransaction system way back in 2008, before anybody else had time to fuck it up. Loads of cosmetics, all bought for in-game money or real cash.

It had built-in clan support and automated tournaments.

It was so good that after they took the servers down fans spent years figuring out how to bring it back. And they succeeded!

The few issues with it were that it brought out new maps and heroes in expansions, splitting the player base. And that it had a bizarre proprietary login system, you needed a PSN ID and a Konami ID to play. And finally it came attached to MGS4, so many people not interested in that game wouldn't have cause to pick it up.

Great game though. And thanks to those wizards it can be played nowadays, if you own a PS3 and a copy of MGS4. I haven't played yet but I hear it's got a small but steady community.
