Four years ago, I saw two guys from school playing on a laptop. They were fighting each other on freeplay. At first I thought it was just some silly game where you fuck around with the character's body parts and try to fight, so I didn't think much of it. Then a year or so later, I found myself bored at my computer, looking for stuff to do. Then I remembered Toribash, so I downloaded it and tried it out. At first I was just fooling around myself, but when I tried out aikido on multiplayer, the game turned out to be a lot more fun then I thought, and I got addicted.
