Part of the joy of blogging stems from the flexibility of the form. From our High Score link roundups to our guest contributors at Player Two (NEWSWEEK colleagues), Outsourced (people who work in the videogame industry) and P2P (folks who are observers of the industry), we've strived to take advantage of the versatility of blogs. That's why today we're debuting a new occasional section later today called Vs. Mode, where two or more people will discuss and debate a popular game, a new announcement, a burning issue, or whatever else is of interest to us and our volunteer combatants. And in the case where our sparring partners are themselves bloggers or journalists, these exchanges may appear on their sites as well. The first person to step into the ring for Vs. Mode is MTV News writer and blogger Stephen Totilo, for a discussion of the recently released Playstation 2 game God of War II. Enjoy.
