New on Kotaku: I’m An Actor, I’m A Gamer, But I’m No Street Fighter

Everyone knows I hate fighting games, ONLY BECAUSE I SUCK AT THEM. Which I personally think is a completely valid reason. Read my HILARIOUS AND ADORABLE article on Kotaku about how I felt like a total moron with a fightstick during filming, because duh I had no idea how to use one, obvi. Read and then make fun of me, that's what I do!

    That’s what I do as well. Well look there, we have something in common.

  2. I’m terrible at fighting games too, but despite that I still like playing them.

  3. Awww, I was hoping for another video with you actually playing a fighting game to show off your…um…”skill?”. We’ll just have to make that video exclusive to Save Point I guess…

  4. Read article:

    Interesting perspective from an actor that I enjoyed reading.

      Seriously, never read the comments on that site, or for just about any other gaming related web site for that matter. Gaming communities are a bunch of really snobby people at times and need to lighten up half of the time. It’s a shame since the other people (i.e. the ones who just sit and read idiotic comments) really ruin the reputation of an average gamer.

      That aside, cool article Lisa. It surprises me you have little experience with an arcade stick when you fit the age bracket where arcades still existed and were frequented (at least they were where I live).

  5. Funnily enough, I win a lot of fighting games by button mashing, namely Soul Calibur and the latest Mortal Kombat :P

  6. Fighting games; before COD, little kids were spamming the same move on arcades.

  7. My technique has been perfected through years and years of hard training and observing the most skilled players out there, only to learn and master their secrets.

    I call that technique “Button Smashing” and it consists of me holding the controller and going GHFIUKGBUKYGEHLKJNLBHDBIBJNKJ!

    No, but seriously, I too hate fighting games because I suck at them. However, I can hold my own weight. Well…kinda. All I do is press more than two buttons at the same time and BOOM! People think I’m an expert or something. Of course, I’m not…though I wish I could be.

    I am part of an abusive relationship when it comes to fighting games; they beat me up and tell me to make them a sammich…and I keep coming back for more. :[

  8. Lisa could probably kick my @$$ in fighting games, unless you include SSB.
