You know it!
Got through Raw in an hour and 15 minutes. Overall, a pretty good show.
-Smart opening with Cena and Barrett. They knew what the crowd reaction was going to be and embraced it. Good match, too, and nice follow-up with Rusev.
-Random Naomi turn was random. Paige actually looked comfortable on the mic.
-Roman held his own in a live interview. Looked and sounded much more natural, but still cussing too much.
-Enjoying the PTP stuff.
-Lucha Dragons are fun.
-Kane and Rollins segments, as well as Kane and Bryan, provided for some solid entertainment.
-Neville and Ziggler was quite good. I would definitely like to watch them go longer. However, Neville needs some kind of video package or interview to give us a reason to care. Otherwise, he'll just be another Evan Bourne.

Stuff I skipped:
-Orton matches
-Fandango match
-Ryback match
-Stardust match
-Mizdow match
-Rollins/Orton final segment

The world's biggest bitch!
You can watch the regular shows on Hulu free AFAIK. They are worth watching.
Lethal Injection easily.
They have enough people, it's stars they lack.
It's like cosmetic DLC, who gives a fuck? Outrage about a non-game-impacting DLC option?
It's not like they took anything out of the game to sell either, so honestly, whatever outrage people have for that particular DLC, I don't get it.

What's there to complain about?
Apparently the kharacter models for two of the DLC kharacters are in the game or something and people are complaining? I haven't played the story yet so I don't know. But yeah, outside of Goro and the 4 announced DLC khars, all of the other DLC is cosmetic shit.
People are apparently really pissed about the "easy fatality" stuff where you pay 99 cents and can do 5 fatalities with like 1 or 2 button inputs. If you're going to waste money because you can't do a 5 button fatality input that's right there in your moves list, more power to you and have fun wasting your money.

This is only worth doing if Kojima does a run in and hits the machine gun chops.
Having to pay, after taxes, almost $100 to be able to play as every available character in a fighting game. No thanks. I'll pay $40 for the Komplete Edition later this year/early next year at the latest.
The chain is of Russian descent. Makes it completely different.

Evidently Liger lost the NWA Jr title to Steve Anthony last night so they are also having a rematch at the Hinokuni show. Based on his facebook page, it appears that Anthony's gimmick is that he's a CAW that gained sentience.
In my younger teens I basically lived on Bungie.net during Halo's glory days. So I think I absolutely was "one of them".
On that note, Bungie.net was an awful place.
I never did the online community gaming thing. Just once or twice with Warcraft 1. Got killed and quickly wondered how the hell people could build stuff so quickly.
I was more of an NES and SNES kid. My neighbor and my cousins had a Genesis, so I got the full 16-bit experience.

WB jus' goin' whale hunting. Everyone else does it nothing to see here.
You know it!
If you don't like DLC then just dont buy DLC. The main reason DLC is still a big thing is because, guess what, a lot of people buy this stuff. Gamers have a surprisingly hard time voting with their wallets (which is why I'm still kind of surprised the Devil May Cry community mostly said no to the reboot)

I still like mortal kombat, just have fallen off it hard and don't want to remember fatality combos and where to execute them anymore. Just let me push X.
The story mode was still absurd fun the last time even if I never went online or played much beyond that.

Even more-so than Chase, if such a thing were possible. Steve Anthony's been about a while, he had a tour of NOAH six years ago.

Paige I think is the only baby face in the division now since AJ is gone. I'd have to assume the void of face divas is going to be filled by Charlotte and Bailey at some point

Agreed. And they should have been in London. New Day Sucks chant would be out of control and it helps develop their character.
Just saw the ending. LOL.

PC release is a clusterfuck because they rolled out a new steam download while you play model and all the pieces aren't up y et. My guess is the logistics of it got fucked up somewhere, will probably be ready for me to download when I get home tonight.
Pretty lame problem to have though, thought SteamOS was supposed to save us from the tyranny of windows or some shit
when did Naomi became a heel o_0? I always thought she was a face unless I missed something over the course of the week.
She went bad yesterday bro!
shit :/...

I've watched every single NXT show on the network until NXT Rival. After that I have not watched but will watch all that I have missed this week.
If you continue watching NXT, some of the episodes are great. Some are eh. Some are bad. But it does ramp up from NXT Takeover 1 and on. But through the good and the bad, I've grown to love most of the characters.
Keep an eye on Sami, Neville, Tyson Kidd, Breeze because they all have had some great matches in NXT last year.
So since they've put these attitude Raws up, I'm just before the Royal Rumble '98 but it's quite clear why it's so well regarded.
Watch the Jan 12th 1998 episode and tell me who's going to win. Austin doesn't even make it to the final segment because he's taken out by Savio Vegas stable. Who the fuck saw that coming? He's going to be the biggest star coming out of the PPV in 6 days from that point. Anyone who watched at that time, did you see Austin winning? Technically again after his heel cheat win in '97?
I think the Kane story is the most telling compared to what they do now in terms of rushing story. First ever hell in a cell match, HBK V Undertaker... Technically it's a fun match before it's gotta be... It's gotta be Kane! That was October.
Fast forward to where the network attitude era starts. Undertaker refuses to fight Kane in any scenario but Paul Bearer is trying to make it happen. A bunch of jobber factions that spawned off the NOD and the Headbangers are in a multi-man handicap match against Kane, but Undertaker saves it. Paul Bearer disowns Kane ahead of Undertakers title match against HBK. That match is when Kane turns on Undertaker again, but they still don't have a match for 2 months until Wrestlemania.
I'll never claim that Undertaker V Kane is a classic, but the 5 month build really made it feel like it was.

100% agree. Kane vs Taker was never a classic matchup, but the whole Kane/Undertaker storyline that built up to that match was honestly some of the best stuff WWE has done in my opinion. When Taker came back and basically said "fuck all this" and said he'd fight Kane, I was jacked.
