In celebration of Epictober (G4's week of huge exclusives), let's talk about Epic rivalries in video games. My favorite has always been the tension and anger simmering just beneath the surface of Mario and Luigi. Sure, they seem to be close, but you know Luigi goes home and punches the walls every time he hears about Mario's latest success.
"What'sa he got that'a I don't?" Luigi asks. "When'a we gonna get a new Luigi's Mansion, in'a 3D?"
What about you? Who are your favorite video game rivals?
