My friends and I have just cut the ribbon to Shoryuken!, a new video game blog we put together named after the move from the Street Fighter franchise. It means "Rising Dragon Fist" and the name for move in English versions of the game is the Dragon Punch.
I suppose this, too, is a local blog of sorts (Hi there, Sparkle City!), but I wouldn't say adding an "out-of-towner" is completely out of the question. Here's the introductory post for Shoryken!:
Shoryuken! is a blog about video games.
There goes about 75% of you right now.
The remaining 25% of you, I'm sure, are eager to read the latest in video game news, rumors, and gossip. Yeah. About that. You won't really find that here.
...and there goes another 24%.
Why, hello there 1%! I'm Myles. My cohorts and I will be delivering articles involving video games and the culture surrounding it. If you've read this far, then you likely have a similar curiosity or passion for video games...or you're really fucking bored (Yes, we swear. A lot. Deal.). Forgive the aesthetics, we're still working that out.
Now, come closer. I speak of video games...and I have beer.
Shoryuken! is a reprieve from the detrimental environment of most message boards. A place for video game conversation that's made up of a little bit more than deemings that something "sux" or "ownz." Anyone can offer a one-word review or pontificate over a zinger to tear down a game, but it's more often than not an attempt to look good in front of internet peers (or to agitate them).
We at Shoryuken! hope to spark a little life into video game conversation. There are dozens of news and rumor sites, but very few that really encourage thought about gaming. More often than not, people attempt impress their opinion upon you with their reviews.
We will too, don't you worry!
But most importantly, we want those who take the time to read what we have to say to respond. To engage themselves in conversation with those who love video games as much as you do.
Right now, the blog format suits our needs best. The future may hold a more legitamate website, or even our own *gulp* message board.
Until then, Shoryuken! as it is works for us just fine. Welcome to Shoryuken!
Press Start!
