    Yes!!

    I'm awesome at Beer Pong. If this game is decent, i'm buying it for sure. Hopefully the price is right.

    I thought the point of Beer Pong was the beer, and not the pong. Then again, video games and beer have always gone hand in hand, so I suppose this is to be expected.

    Eh, not really too excited. I mean the video game can't give me beer and I have a custom beer pong table out the back anyway...

    Dude, I am so getting this. I am a a champ at non-beer versions (only 15, no beer yet) of beer pong, so this should be fun(ny). I wonder how much is it going to be.
