    After finally seeing some screenshots of this game, I'm pretty excited.

    I have plenty of room in my heart for two MMA games, just like I have more than enough room for more than one MMA organization. #easportsmma

    The only reason Strikeforce is even known is pretty much because of Fedor. I for one eagerly await Fedor vs Lesnar, hopefully not when they are both washed up. Screw you strikeforce for making that match not possible. #easportsmma

    @maraxusofk: screw you for not supporting an organization that pays its fighters fairly (not just the top dogs). Also, its Fedors fault not strikeforces. UFC didnt want to have to deal with Fedor's demands that his shady russian fight promotions company would get to coproduce events and other ridiculous shit. Dana White is right, Fedor is not serious about fightin in UFC. He is serious about making some $$$$$. #easportsmma

    @Fateric2000: The UFC doesn't give a shit about any of it's fighters. Really, just look what they did to Cro-cop compared to Chuck Liddell. The very first fucking fight, they had him fight this monster that no one had even heard of. No entry fight at all, no respect for his image or his fanbase. They basically just took him in the organization and shit him out, ruined. Fuck UFC, and I completely agree with Fedor's caution in it. UFC has no interest in helping these people out.

    Take Liddell for example, who has been babied every single fight, with every announcer pumping him up to no end as he loses to nobodies.

    Atleast in Japan you could tell that the fans respected the fighters, and they could make money on marketing endorsements. Go to the UFC and you don't get anything, they will watch your career go up in flames and profit from it just as soon as help you.

    @Shinta: What are you talking about? Gonzaga was a veritable nobody before destroying Mirko. They hand-picked an unknown for Mirko to smash, and he ended up being on the recieving end of the most ironic KO ever.

    Also, despite your claims of "being shit out" Mirko is still fighting for the UFC, regardless of his poor performances. He is rumored to be fighting former IFL star Ben Rothwell next. Mirko is supposed to be a top-ranked HW, so blaming his loses on the UFC for not babying him enough are laughable, especially after what you say about Liddell.

    Speaking of which, Liddell's only loses are against some of the highest ranked LHW's in the world in his waning years. These loses include fighters like Shogun and Rampage, which came from the Japanese organization you seem to hold at such high acclaim.

    Go be a PRIDE bride somewhere else... #easportsmma

    @vorpal_raddish: Gonzaga was a nobody, but he was a god damned beast. He looked like he was twice his size honestly. I'm seeing some parallels with the fight they want to set up with Fedor. And I'm not exactly blaming Cro-cop's losses on UFC, that would be ridiculous. I'm blaming them for not putting any consideration into making it even worthwhile for these guys to come over. They're already just talking shit on Fedor, saying he's scared, or that he's not serious and all this shit. It's just disrespectful, and it's typical of UFC.

    They want Fedor to come over and lose, so they can discredit him, pump up their champion, and finally kill the last doubt that there are any fighters outside of UFC. That goal alone is ridiculous, as there are fighters all over the world, and the day UFC is the sole representation of martial arts is a sad day for the planet. There's just not a lot for Fedor to gain here, they're just setting him up for a fall, and I don't really believe the steroid/painkiller testing is foolproof in the US like everyone claims it is.

    Pride actually felt like it was a collection of martial artists. UFC has amazing fighters, but everything about the culture of it is just disgusting.

    But yeah really, don't get me started on Liddell. You don't really want to base your argument on backing someone who's that bad. He's tough as hell, no dispute there, but the guy is one of the worst fighters I've ever seen. He looks like he's going to fall over every time he throws a kick. #easportsmma

    I've been putting off beating the first Mass Effect for so long, but I've finally made an effort to get to the end and now I'm almost there.

    Although doing Noveria at level 40 was a mistake.

    Still, at this rate I'll be done with Mass Effect this weekend, can power through Dragon Age and when Mass Effect 2 comes out I'll be ready to enjoy this collector's edition.

    @TrjnRabbit: Do yourself a favor and DO NOT power through Dragon Age. Bioware put a hell of a lot of work into creating an incredibly rich world, and despite being only a few hours in, the time I've taken to explore, read, and talk to people has really made me appreciate the game so much more.

    If it and ME2 overlap schedule-wise, then you'll just have to deal with choosing between two superb experiences. #masseffect2

    I'm starting a petition and boycotting this game.

    OMG, what are they thinking?! They're ruining the franchise!!!

    @TexasJack: in context, it's only 10 dollars more than the regular edition. It's a lot of money, but so is 60. Though I suppose the more people buy the special edition, the more willing they'd become to boost the edition's price even more. #masseffect2
