    Unfortunately, MPs are so out of touch that they think that Pong is the pinnacle of video gaming - leading, ultimately, to Boris Johnson stating that "Pong is coming home" again ;)

    Hey, don't you be trash-talking no Pong, foo. I'll 1v1 yo ass, first to 12. (No, but seriously: Pong's still a great game, though I'll grant you I probably wouldn't watch a televised Pong tournament. Tetris, on the other hand - have you *seen* the top Tetris players? I'd watch that all day long.)

    I cut my gaming teeth on Pong - on a bright orange Binatone TV Master, I think it was :D

    For an "international" event that takes place in less than 4 months there is not a lot of info available, is there? But hey, at least they have the most important thing covered - t-shirts :lol:.

    Assessing your combat instincts just in case martial law has to be imposed, so they know who to neutralize first and who to just incarcerate in Fema camps..

    Hehe.

    Seriously though, Why are Dodgy Dave and his cronies taking interest in gaming all of a sudden?
