The Angry and Dreaded Challengers are joined by their first guest--The Easy Challenger! Angry met up with Easy during his time in Kandahar, Afghanistan and has since stayed in touch. Today, the three Challengers will discuss what is was like transitioning from a 2D to a 3D fighting game (and vice versa). They cover strategies that carried over from either style, things that didn't carry over, and the most difficult parts of learning both types of fighting games! Come play us online!
