LETS GOOOO!! I cant wait!
Alex, the Big Apple brawler, will make his descent into the ring of #StreetFighter6 on March 17. 🤼♂️
No use holding back when faced with the Dark Devil himself, as he'll show you no mercy with his array of devastatingly powerful throws!

I have also been playing a whole lot of Battlefield 6 to help prepare our coverage on GameSpot and I am having the best time! We played against a lot of bots during the preview time, so I can't wait for there to be more actual people to play with tomorrow!

Staying up to watch EVO finals with a grip of people from our local FGC was 100% worth it, even if I didn't make it to bed until 4am this morning. It was a really great time playing games and getting hyped up with everyone!

Kinda sad not to be at EVO this year, but I am very excited to watch from home and with friends over the weekend! Fighting games are so rad!
