Halloween and MKX Tourney
Big Time: Interweb Legends Launches
Its been a long time coming. a LONG time coming. The #1 channel stream and art promotion site on the web hits the ground running. Swollness is at the helm and completely lacking a motley crew of rag tag dream chasers ready to brave the depths and soar into greatness. Legends is nothing without the community plain and simple. With that said, legends is looking to tell a rags to riches story. It’s looking for that diamond in the rough. That baby in the trash. Who sinks and who swims? Who whails and who fails?
(man I went hard on those phrases)
Up to this point I had been keeping the existence of legends fairly low key but no more. More than 90% of the underdogs content came from regular people following my twitter and advertising via Direct message trying to get some exposure. So before I say another word here’s a long a** list giving thanks and shout outs to those in the struggle or already getting it done:

This list is pretty serious. And I didnt even realize until this blog post.
Theres a bunch of different pages meant for different types of content and personalities. Although the underdogs are pretty much stacked for the time being, there is plenty of opportunity for exposure on the other pages. The anime page is basically bare because I lack the grade A experience required to fill the void. Honestly, I am in desperate need of some young bloods ready to showcase the realm of anime.
For the more controversial pages in the salty suite, I would love nothing more than to start taking submissions for all 3 pages. Me personally, my favorite area on legends is the salty suite because its just a guilty pleasure to watch people get mad over video games lololol.
vgtv boasts some strong mid tier streamers dedicated to the game. a4 andre and smg princess covering 2 solid entries in the field of fighting games. The only downside to these players is the obvious fact that streaming requires some real man hours and consideration towards irl jobs because everybody gotta pay that rent. Consider it an open opportunity window for you all as streamers however; to take up offline slot space during prime time hours. The street fighter and the femme fatale are currently offline as of this post so first come first serve is in effect.
I refuse to lie through my teeth. This operation is a one man show. This means I am dedicated to the cause and any support puts me indebted to the generous contributor. It’s my life now so consider clicking on over to the memberships page and subscribing to the bare bones membership. Let’s see if we cant start getting some giveaway’s routinely going every month. Perhaps even weekly? daily? I also wouldn’t mind some experience wordpress users interested in helping me manage some of the pages just to ease the stressful load.
no more talk.
eyes up towards the future.

These discussions don’t happen often. Sometimes they aren’t even about current topics. But that doesn’t change the fact reading these candid conversations can be entertaining and thought provoking.

woooow
super nintendo and genesis rolling over in their graves right now

Anyway, the video embedded above allows you to drop onto the page and comment to your heart’s content since Microsoft has obviously enabled Censorship 2.0 on their YouTube videos.
When you click on the “Watch on YouTube” button with the video above, you are encouraged but not limited to: Curse out Microsoft’s DRM policies, drop ‘F’ bombs on the Xbox One’s region-limited services, dispense some rage on the used game fees just like Angry Joe, complain about Kinect 2.0 listening and watching at all times…heck, you can even get your friends together and throw riotous insults at the whole concept of having to login every 24 hours like a San Quentin parolee.
al
I don’t find that to be such a bad response
If you don’t wanna pay for data or phone service don’t buy a f***** smartphone

Always-on DRM – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Always-on DRM or always-online DRM is a form of DRM that requires a consumer to remain connected to a server, especially through an internet connection, to use a particular product. The practice is also referred to as persistent online authentication. The technique is meant to prevent copyright infr…
Always-on DRM
shak
The technique is meant to prevent copyright infringement of software. Like other DRM methods, always-on DRM has proven controversial, mainly because it has failed to stop pirates from illegally using the product, while causing severe inconvenience to people who bought the game legally.
shak
s*** sux
kind of like the war on drugs
and joe philbin
doesnt work but lets keep doing it
al
You know the world’s gone to s*** when not being able to play a video game for a few hours is a severe inconvenience
shak
A major disadvantage of always-on DRM is that whenever the DRM authentication server goes down, or a region experiences an Internet outage, it effectively locks out people from playing the game

god forbid ur stupid a** ceo papis decide to do maintenance on saturday night when im trying to finish the fight in halo 5
al
(frown emoticon)
What a severe inconvenience lol
shak
Ubisoft’s first title requiring an always-on connection was Silent Hunter 5: Battle of the Atlantic, which had reportedly been cracked as of the first day of the game’s release.[10] Ubisoft also used always-on DRM in Driver: San Francisco.[11] However, the company announced in September 2012 that it would not employ always-on DRM in its future games
shak
