Bet it went better than the idiots who posted pics of a shot gun and AR on the car boot with the tag line, Boston here we come.
Wtf is a motherboard writer…. Kotaku isn’t giving us more sponsored articles again is it?
I clicked on this hoping to find an enthralling story about how a guy who writes circuitry for PC motherboards caused some chaos at the pokemon world champs… 🙁

Lol this sounds like one of those ads on Facebook.
“Motherboard writer went and played Pokemon, you’ll never guess what happened next!”
This is still pretty pathetic, stuff like this is what I hate about Kotaku.
