| Russian Wrestling Is Always Number One!! |

I enjoy a lot of things by proxy. This is particularly true for things I can't be bothered to do, watch, or play, but I appreciate it by virtue of someone else enjoying it. Take, for instance, my brothers and the videogames they play; just watching them go through a game is usually enough for me.
Currently, my brother has been mastering the very character I thought I would regularly use in Street Fighter 4, Zangief. You see, the analog stick isn't very kind to his preferred character Ryu, and consistently conspire to corrupt his commands, especially during online play, which just drives him up the wall. He's since moved on to the more responsive Russian bear-hugger, and his track record's steadily improved for it. In fact, he's much better at using Zangief now than I am (which isn't surprising-- I must have played about an hour of the game in the past two, three weeks).
I can't say I particularly mind-- Zangief is absolutely fricking hilarious whenever he pulls off any of his throw moves, no matter who uses him.
Right now, I'm 'playing' Rock Band 2 by putting it on No Fail mode, using the controller to get the microphone interface-- the most unobtrusive one-- and then going to the tour gigs that let you make setlists. Now I can sit back and watch 'music videos' where my band characters cavort about the screen, and I don't have to play at all.
AWESOME!
Now for some way to record this shizzle. I pray part three has some way for you to control the behaviour algorithms for the avatars.
