What the hell happened to Jason Sensation?

I think he does indy stuff in Southern Ontario.

There is/was this show on CITY in Toronto called Speakers Corner. There was this booth in downtown Toronto where you put a toonie in and could say whatever you wanted for 2 minutes and they grabbed the "best" stuff and turned it into a 30 minute show ever week.

Jason and some other guy used to cut promos on eachother on it weekly. They did full wrestling storylines minus the wrestling. So not unlike the WWE now:p

"built on a new animation engine, new rendering, basically means we have much more fluid motions"

*Miz goes for a grapple and his arm flops off orton just like all the old smack down games and then at 1:49 orton warps to miz to pick him up.............



GOOD JOB THQ !

THQ and Yukes are just keeping the feel of the current WWE product for authenticity, as in not fresh or new.
 
It always makes me cringe when people who obviously find pro wrestling alien talk to a wrestler.

"Hey, The Miz, what do you think of this?"
 
Hey dream, did the latest Observer have the PPV buyrate for Over the Limit?

I saw a preliminary buyrate on another site and was just wondering if it was reported in the Observer or not.
 
Having not had a chance to check out the footage yet, I'm hardly surprised that it looks the same. They've supposedly been working on this for about 18 months, but every time they talk about it, it's the same damn bullet points they bring up every year. Until they get Yukes off the development, it's always going to be the same shit. Give it to THQ San Diego. They've proven they can make a more than competent wrestling game that shits all over anything Yukes does.
 
I mentioned this in another thread, but one thing that amazes me about the Smackdown vs. Raw series is how little effort is put into the commentary. It's been consistently awful for years and never showed any signs of improvement to the point where I wonder why they don't just get rid of the commentary and replace it with background music a la Day of Reckoning 1.

Even WCW Mayhem on the fucking Playstation 1 had better commentary than any of the recent Smackdown vs. Raw games.

Especially when it's something like "If he does that on Sunday, he'll win the title!" when I'm at WRESTLEMANIA IN THE MAIN EVENT.
 
I think the problem is the reuse alot of the commentary from year to year, so you have outdated shit that doesn't relate to anything going on and can be swapped out for any of the wrestlers in the game.

Proof that JR is shit on commentary. "Van Dam with a neckbreaker!" Uhh, you mean Christian with an inverted DDT off the ladder? You fucked up literally everything about that call.

Yes. Michael Cole Bingo and general shittiness is a great improvement.

Or were you joking.

I don't think so but let me double check.

edit: oh, oops, yeah, Dave buried the Over The Limit estimate in the UFC buyrate section:

Based on those same trending numbers, which are very good at predicting the final numbers, WWE’s Over the Limit looks to be only at 65,000 in the United States (which would mean maybe 75,000 tops in North America because you include Canada and Puerto Rico in those totals). I expected low, but didn’t expect that low. We should have actuals on that show in a few weeks.
To show the accuracy of trending numbers when it comes to WWE, they would have indicated 90,000 for TLC (real number was 101,000), 260,000 for Rumble (real number 264,000), 160,000 for Chamber (real number 136,000) and 630,000 for Mania (real number 617,000). So when we have actuals to compare it to, these early estimates are pretty darn close.
TNA’s Sacrifice looks to be near record lows in the 7,000 range based on those same patterns. Of course with TNA, with a number that low, it could be 4,000 or 15,000 and you’re within the margin of error of something like this. I did expect Sacrifice to do really bad, and our response level to it was awful.
The strongest WWE Over the Limit U.S. markets look to be Dallas, Seattle (where the show took place in), San Jose, New York, Atlanta and Los Angeles.

People didn't want to see another Cena I Quit match, even though Cena has not lost a match by submission since 2003?
 
I don't understand how one of the top PPV markets for Over The Limit was Seattle when the show took place in Seattle.
 
They need to stop having so many PPV's. As soon as Wrestlemania ended, it was already time to start marketing the next PPV. It should be Royal Rumble, Wrestlemania, Summerslam, and Survivor Series with every other month PPVs in between. With sales that poor, is it even profitable to have the PPV?
