Two questions

Here's the line from the OP that caught my eye and makes me laugh almost uncontrollably:

 "more sophisticated and challenging than chess"

Think pooh.

You also can not forget

But certainly the laser proved to be what I realized it was going to be. At that moment in my life I was too ignorant in business law to be able to do it right, and if I did it over again probably the same damn thing would happen.
Gordon Gould

There are relatively few experiments in atomic physics these days that don't involve the use of a laser.
Eric Allin Cornell

The importance of lasers can not be under-estimate

or sea bass...

especially with lemon butter sauce

This is the most helpful thread in the history of Chess.com.

I could really go for some sea bass right now.... with waffles for after.

Let's not forget:

Eye R a REturd! Yuk. Yuk Yukkk

 At least someone who recognizes us for what we're worth!

I love you!

What did you expect when you come to a chess website, don't play any chess, and show-off your game which is better than chess and criticise its members?

trysts is posing a game show question; what one poorly-named game links all of these images together?

Lasers are primitive.  They do not even go through a starship's navigational deflectors.   Nowadays they have replaced them with the ever so much more effective phasers.

What gets me, is why would tippy have his game set in Mongolia?

Well, everybody is kind of intimidated by the Chinese nowadays, and only a Mongol can really scare a Chinese defence.  He probably figured the game would be more intimidating by association.

That makes sense. In fact, that is the only part of the game I understand now(besides the shark expansion pack, of course).

Is laser obstacle chess more challenging than regular chess?
