We demand a rematch! When Harmonix lead designer Dan "Flying Elbows" Teasdale challenged our editor-in-chief to a arm wrestling competition in their domain we should have known it would be a setup. Watch as Chester's bacon-like frame gets crushed by meaty Teasdale by with a dirty g-force takedown in a video featuring the most physical activity exherted all weekend at PAX. This is a low for the video game industry. Cancel your Rock Band 2 preorders now!  No pardon me as I get back to my DS beanbag and cheesy poofs.

Shoulda hopped up on the desk and leaned sir! It would have been an anime styled arm wrestling match.

Next rematch should be a good old game of Roshambo, where you start it off by kicking him in the fucking nuts. Then we'll see who's the bigger man.
