i remember walshy he was the huge thing when i played, i played with him once, no joke almost beat him in 4v4 team slayer against his team, it was their warm up game, and we were playing all day the score was like 50 to 41, is he like the tom wallisch of skiing>?

this man knows his shit...and this shit is completely serious haha its actually crazy to think that you can make a living off of playing video games

http://www.mlgpro.com/video/espnsaturday&c=ESPN%20Saturday%20Night

the league is sponsored by red bull, espn, stride, old spice, bic, ballpark hotdogs, hot pockets, dr pepper, and a few other big name companies

ya! raleigh this weekend!

for those of you who thinks its dumb, i can see where you're coming from but believe it or not MLG has some huge sponsors and is actually getting big. Puckett's probably loaded haha. But ya trust me we arent the only ones.

and did any of you interested see goofy's quick scope on sk?! most intense game ive seen in a while, crowd was wild too

Mlg s fun to watch and too okay. That's why I've started doing alot more scrims on mw2 the teamwork involved makes the game slightly more enjoyable. But real mlg is way to intense for meh

dude, its a fucking video game... really? you're trying to defend something so pathetic? you might as well defend someone who jerks off a slightly different way than you but is way more efficient at it.

ya i can see where all the people who say its dumb are coming from, but a lot of things we do or watch are for entertainment, and watching mlg in my opinion is a great source of entertainment.

Raleigh starts tomorrow! haha

They're still going strong, although they have quite the different team than they had back in the H2 Days. Ogre 2 is the only one left I think. They are still fucking good though. Big contenders for the first price in Raleigh this weekend.

Personally i'm hoping for eighter Believe The Hype, or Dynasty, but it will probably be Instinct or FB who takes it.
Pretty stoked none the less.

I know walshys bro, he was my tennis coach a few years ago!

/claim.

P.S. The reason I know his bro and not him is because I don't play video games what so ever.

because redbull understands that their are other things that people enjoy and devote some of their lives to excell at besides football, basketball, baseball, or any other main stream sport/activity. i think its cool that redbull does stuff like this and gaming (if you actually to the time to watch instead of being ignorant and saying the world is fucked) takes a lot of time and commitment to excell at...just like anything else

Cool, cool. It sounds like a lot of the H2 guys stayed around for H3 but some new teams have risen as well. That's pretty neat, I might do a few gb matches with Reach if it's any good but I'll have to see, as I don't really play very many video games anymore.

MLG is sweet. Instinct has been my favorite ever since they were created. Glad there's some others on here who like this kind of gaming.
