HHGL Launches at NBA All-Star Weekend

With the HHGL starting game play in just a few days, the festivities surrounding the NBA All-Star Game in Houston offered the perfect opportunity to spotlight the ever- coalescing worlds of athletics, video games and Hip-Hop music and culture. Kenny Smith's party brought out nearly every major face in both the NBA and Hip-Hop, all coming together in rap's newest hotbed, Houston.

New R&B sensation Chris Brown, former Ms.USA/actress Kenya Moore and radio personality Steph Lova all breezed through the plasma screen and velvet couch-laden gaming lounge to watch party-goers go head-to-head in EA Sports' Madden '06 and a basketball game, all delivered on high-definition screens courtesy of Microsoft's Xbox 360, the HHGL platform of choice.

Even with the NBA All-Star game less than 48 hours away, many of the NBA's finest partied and gamed well into the wee hours of the morning.

Hip-Hop Gaming League

No shit. That's the actual name of the League - Hip-Hop Gaming League. Discuss.

My comments: I don't think there has ever been a news article more worthy of this forum :)

As a matter of fact I swallowed one of these about two hours ago and the explanation is that it is, in fact, my hand.

Don't worry.  Schild is mostly harmless.

Holy God. It's like one big orgy of corporate whoring money shots all over the face of gaming.

It's media bukkake.

It makes me want to tie down all the participants, eat their flesh as they scream in pain, then curl up in a fetal position and weep.

I read the topic and thought "I bet it's all console madden and some nba game".

Glad to see the universe continues to follow its laws.

Media bukkake is redundant.
