Weekend Discussion - June 8, 2024

Welcome to the weekend! It's certainly a big one! Let's jump into the Saturday edition of Weekend Discussion.

Checking in on the CTWC

The Classic Tetris World Championship kicked off on Friday. It's mostly qualifiers on that first day, so we're just having fun for a little while. Surely nothing wild and newsworthy is happening...

Oh.

Well, that was unexpected.

Just be careful, Logan Paul. Be aware that even as you take breaks to play Tetris, you're still being hunted.

Can’t hide forever @LoganPaul. Keep playing with your puzzles.#SmackDown pic.twitter.com/Ub6WIrIXtU

I might have forced that title, but it's my post, so there.

Senior Editor

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
