The Daily Hotness: #KOF12

Recommended Videos

Hamza has the day off, so I will be presenting your daily recap this evening. Which means it’s probably been done wrong. But that’s alright, because a ton of stuff happened today. Awesome stuff, because that’s what we do here.

We ripped Twitter a new one with our KOF XII contest, the team at SDCC continued to rock, Brad declared I-No to be Badass of the Month, Nick gave us another peek at the new NXE, and you’ve got two new podcast episodes to get you through the weekend. Not bad, 7/24/09. Not bad at all.
