Posted by Thorin @ 23:08 CDT, 1 April 2010 - iMsg
SK Gaming has released the third and final part of their 1on1 interview with United States of America Shane "rapha" Hendrixson. rapha talks about his journey from a 13 year old watching United States of America John "ZeRo4" Hill at QuakeCon to becoming a world champion. He sees his route as almost "scripted from Hollywood".

rapha is asked if his IEM IV World Championship final against Russia Anton "Cooller" Singov bore any kind of reversed resemblance to the plot of Rocky IV. Which Rocky movie does rapha instead reference?

Will rapha continue on in Esports beyond his playing career and if so in what capacity could he see himself? A brand name like Fatal1ty?

The interview can be viewed at SK Gaming, as well as parts one and two.

Well we're back after a great trip to PAX East, to talk about some of the things going on in the community such as the QuakeLive TDM competitions happening online, the tons of beta cups happening for Starcraft 2 and the latest patch, and other random bits going on.

We'll also be having Team EG Quake player Canada Tom "griffin" Wall on the show to talk about his trip to the IEM Masters event, what he's looking forward to this year and maybe a story or two about his time with Darkside or playing CPM.

The show will start at 21:15 CDT, 31 March 2010 and hopefully our guest will actually be able to show up this time (thanks Slasher).

Head on over to the Ready Up Radio Ustream to catch us LIVE this week.
