Re: [Audyssey] A question for Clement and Yohandy re: play value of mainstream fighting games.

[Clement Chou]

You explained it in a minute whereas I would've probably taken 5 
minutes to write that out... I can do it, but I can't explain it that 
well. Thanks Scott. This is precisely what we have to be aware of... 
and would you believe it? This helps us to be aware in every day life 
as well. I'm an aspiring martial artist, and although my martial art 
is mainly solo practice... there are partnered forms in which blows 
are exchanged and countered. I find myself able to block more 
precisely and accurately because of my experience with fighting 
games... and I can predict the blow quite accurately. The partnered 
forms are pre-arranged, so it is one strike for one block. However 
when the strike happens is not determined... and you cannot block 
before the cut actually begins. For anyone who's wondering what kind 
of insane art this seems to sound like... I practice iaido, which is 
a japanese sword art.
