Best of the Network this week

I don’t think I will ever understand performance art. So you’re playing a piano while it’s on fire, big deal. God Len, you are easily impressed.

On Destructoid, Topher lays into the horrible Dpad on the 360 controller. On Japanator, there is a ton of coverage on Anime Matsuri and Anime Boston 2008. On Tomopop, hot Cammy kit is hot. On Poprox, Mel Gibson and Britney Spears have a crazy dinner date. On MiamiNights, Barcardi B-Live is coming back to Miami. And on Ectomo, go buy me a hotdog, bitch.
