I'll always wonder if a year or two in Japan would have drastically changed Batista's in-ring work. I'm sure it would have, but I wonder how it would have and in what respects. He's been pretty much just America-only. A true American product. The biggest muscles. The biggest everything! AMERICA IS BATISTA

He would have probably gotten a little more athletic and any changes to his style wouldn't have translated to WWE because Vince believes big men can't fly.

 

[FallingEdge]

fantastic exercise. love rows.

 

[Nocturnowl]

Batista's match with Taker at WM23 is genuinely great, it's straight to the point big man brawling that packs itself nicely into around 15 minutes I think, considering his WM match with Cena was also pretty short compared to most main events it seems the winning Batista formula was to not drag things out.

Yeah, pretty much this.

You can't build a statue without putting in the right amount of work. I hate ems. But the payoff is greato.

It really is. Look how they did with another big guy, especially considering it was his first match back in AGES, Lesnar vs Cena. They kept Lesnar in control for 90% of the match and let him take his time. The worst thing for him would be to see how gassed he'd get if he wrestled a normal match with Cena, and their agent had him take his time and he didn't suffer for that.

Batista could go pretty well but when you're hauling around all that mass, you start to sweat like crazy pretty quick and get tired. He knew his limits and so did his agent.

Vince must be pissed as hell!

Also guys, the Ducktales game sucked when it was on the NES. The only thing it had going for it was the music. IT IS NOT A GOOD GAME. Why get excited for it? Aaaagh

I have fond memories of it beyond the music. I think I love the games I know I can beat.

Question

You know the gif where the wrestler jumps through the ropes feet first, is it Johnny Ace?

 

[Dark Ninja]

Is he bared from promoting two things at once? I don't know how that works.

He probably is unless WWE is the one paying for his flights and hotels. Gi Joe is paying the bill here they don't want to promote garbage wrestling and turn off people to watch their movie

- Former WWE Superstar Dave Batista was at Thursday night’s WWE NXT tapings from Winter Park, FL and filmed an interview for WWE’s upcoming DVD on the career of Triple H.

I think Batista was good in the ring. Great series with Undertaker, good matches with Cena, MVP, Edge and even Kane. He was at his best when they let him just go crazy. I think he's a lot better than people give him credit for. His run in 2007 was great.

 

[Dave Meltzer]

Batista knew what he was doing by the end of his run. He was a pretty good worker.

Right on man. AC1 had VISION. A real vision, a real direction, and was free from a lot of corporate meddling and didn't have poor facebook-style games within the game.

LEGIT SHAKING

Good points of view. It also helped that everyone selling for him sold very well what he was. Except Cena.

AC1 >AC: liberation > AC2 >>>>>> AssCreedbro > AC: rev >>>>>>>>>> AC3

I wouldnt rank Lib so far, but I'm only halfway through, but man, that framerate is crippling. It does have a neat main character, though.

What makes AC3 so bad?

Everything story related simply wasn't fun to play. That, and if you felt like AC2 had a long tutorial section before they took the chains off of you and let you do what you like, you'll be crying into your tits when it comes to AC3. HOURS of directed onboarding. I hate onboarding in games like this. Just give me some freedom to chase down some Benny Franks pages, goddammit.

 

[Professor Beef]

What makes AC3 so bad?

It's a fine game that is plagued with bugs both small and large. Top that off with a middling protag in Connor and a questionable ending, and you've got a recipe for disaster.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

You guys cray. The concept of AC1 was better in that it allowed more freedom with assassinations, but the execution was lacking. ACB > AC2 >>> the rest.

And now they pump em out so fast I can't even keep up so mehhhh @ Assassin's Creed. WE OFF DAT

 

[Deleted member 47027]

What we just witnessed was legit heat and legit rage and something I never would have expected for tonight: John Cena destroyed The Rock. I'm in shock. Rocky was so filled with rage at the end there he didn't even know what to say, fumbling his words, pacing around, he was shook. The wrist promo remark daggered him. Right when Cena said that Rock stepped up closer to him and you could sense he just wanted to punch his lights out for real. WOW, I can't believe this. Rocky better come back hard in the coming weeks.

Are we fucking watching the same show? they were LEGIT pissed at each other. Rocky at the end was in a blathering rage. Unbelievable how oblivious and blind you people are

I love digging up where legit shook's parents began, and started to form.

 

[Data West]

The only good thing about AC1 was that Altair is the only assassin who actually looks like he could blend into crowds.
I think Watch Dogs becomes the 'new' AC like AC became the new PoP soon though

What makes AC3 so bad?

Made on a system that it wasn't meant to run on. Framerate is awful and

What made AC2 so good was they said 'look our stealth isn't that great. so if you want to use it, that's cool, but we're not going to force you'

AC3 'lol our controls are bad and our stealth is horrible so how do yo ufeel about stealth requirements for full sync and flying papers that make you want to break the controller at how bad the game handles movement'

 

[slightconfuse]

I will say while I haven't played the main game the tyranny of king Washington is really fun .

You can turn into a ghost wolf.

Also AC 1 was great in theory but Brohood is still te best imo

 

[Professor Beef]

Ezio's saga is the best part of AssCreed.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Ezio's saga is the best part of AssCreed.

I hope Pirate's Creed is the start of them just dropping the modern timeline garbage and simply making historical fiction games. I never thought I'd play something dumber than a MGS plot, but Assassin's Creed proved me wrong at the end of BroHood. They need to make new Ezio style trilogy following some assassin in some era and leave it at that.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Ezio's saga is the best part of AssCreed.

I didn't think TOO much of him until Revelations was finally starting to wrap up, then I realized I'd miss the old fucker.

 

[slightconfuse]

Try should stop making as screed games for a while. Open world games don't need to be annualized. Get tired to quick.

Take some time off get some new ideas and recharge. Make another character like ezio that people care about

Hopefully black flag is the last one for a while.

Gomu gomu no Assassin

Oh hell yeah it was. Insane grind back in the day. I still remember the horrors of Valkurm, sub-job quest, leveling your sub, grinding this and that, all the way to what was the end at the time with HNMs and such. Good times, but man that was a lot of wasted time.

Honest to goodness, ELPRESADOR would make an excellent wrestling promo man or manager. He's seriously wonderful at cutting promos against the Xbox back in the day. He's got natural talent.
