We're not sure how, and we're especially not sure why, but Destructoid and 2K Games are locked in never ending food eating battle. It started with a pie eating contest with P.B. Winterbottom's producer Paul Bellezza, which they had TO CHEAT IN ORDER TO WIN.
Our second battle was going to be a five-versus-five contest that was supposed to take place during the Game Developers Conference last week. 2K's Jennie Sue had set up the fight where we would be chowing down on 120 Lumpias. Sadly, we couldn't make it over as GDC is just all sorts of chaos and what not.
It's not over though. Oh no, not by a long shot. I'm all set for a rematch with Paul Bellezza during his P.B. Winterbottom panel at PAX East next week and we're already talking to 2K about another battle at their offices down the line.
Why are we going through all this trouble? For one simply reason, my friends: JOURNALISM!
Hamza Aziz, Destructoid's Community Director, has been here since day one. He was born when a tiger coughed up a hairball into a pool of ooze. He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?

You'd think that he'd at least be good at eating with how much he fails at being a journalist.
Because I won't have a lot of money, and free food is free food.
