I'll be buying SimCity next once the servers are straightened up. It looks too fun to pass up.
Also dear god almighty they're going to ruin Generico.

I dunno, concerts are expensive here. I'll probably spend £10-£25 on a ticket, £12-20 on travel into London, £30 on drinks, etc. Shit adds up, so I only end up seeing a handful of bands each year. It doesn't help that the local music scene here is pretty shit, although we have some great folk artists.

On PC, those TressFX? Not kidding. Shit's hot.
Jeezus, I feel like I buy a lot of games because I keep wondering "why wait?" for a lot of these mentioned above.
The local music scene is getting better around here, so I haven't had to travel as much lately for shows. I'm going to two festivals this year and that's all I'm planning on traveling for.

I can't wait for Cena's speech after winning the belt on the Raw after Mania where he tells the world that he will be on every single Raw while he remains champ.

Nice choice, Lego City looks fun.
I'll be buying the new Luigi's Mansion this month, and probably Darkstalkers Resurrection too; if the latter comes out as a PS+ freebee, I might just wait until it goes back to being sold on its own.
Y'know, something like that would have made me frown last year, but now it's just kind of like deja vu.

I also think that once I finish 2001, I'll do a 2002 Wrestling blog detailing all the shows I watch from that year.

WCW Thunder 3/7/2001
I hope this is better than the last Thunder.
2 Count vs Jason B/Scotty O
The final first round match of the tournament. Jason B is actually EZ Money. Kid Kash had also been hanging around Nitros and house shows, but hasn't been on TV yet. I guess he had an attitude problem even back then. I see that Velvet Sky stole her tights from EZ.
I don't know who this Scotty O is. He looks bland as fuck. You have to work hard to look more bland than Shannon Moore. Dive sequence ends with Scotty O doing an Asai moonsault. F5 from Scotty O! Crush is going to be pissed. EZ has some nifty moves. 2 Count win with a combo flapjack/fameasser.
TO THE BACK. Scott Steiner throws a trash can at a security member.
Scott Steiner comes to the ring. HOLLAR. He's going to kill some WHITE TRASH at Greed. He's going to "slidify" himself as the best champion of all times. He calls out The Cat. Cat comes out. He's going to get in his limo, have SMOOV drive around the building and push him out, and then come to the ring and beat Steiner's ass. It's a drive by ass whooping. Steiner is going to fuck him up. DDP's music hits. He's in the crowd again. He keeps wearing 3 Stooges shirts. He talks about "Creed" again. Rick Steiner came up behind DDP, but Hugh Morris was behind Rick.
Norman Smiley vs Shawn Stasiak
Meat brought his pictures with him. He got really worried when they got knocked out of his hands. Bleh. Meat wins with a Ron Simmons-styled spinebuster. He heels on fat, bald, tattooed, toothless people. That is awfully specific.
TO THE BACK. Kanyon confronts SMOOV for stooging him off to Cat. Kanyon flips over the limo with a forklift and runs off. After a break, EMTs and security attend to SMOOV in his upside down limo.
Prime Time vs Shane Helms
Shane kind of looks like a horse. This goes into the crowd where Shane hip tosses Prime Time back into the ring area then hits a cross body off the guard rail. Shane is another guy who had a weird non-turn face turn. He was just a face one day. Even before he and Shannon broke up, he was wrestling solo matches against heels out of the blue and was supposed to be the one you cheered for. He didn't really do anything to turn face. He just was a face one day. Vertebreaker for the win. Kid Romeo ambushes Shane after the match. The Filthy Animals make the save. This was disappointing.
Rick Steiner vs Hugh Morris
Rick wants to start it on the floor. Hugh ain't playing that bullshit. Rick then uses the ref as a shield and kicks Hugh in the balls. First move of the match. Whoever laid Hugh's matches out did a terrible job. For real. They make him look like such a loser. Hugh might as well be Lash in there. Rick goes on the floor and screams at some kids who look completely non plussed. Hugh is just being dominated. Steiner comes out of the ring multiple times to fuck around with fans and Hugh still can't get any offense. I get booking lower card guys like this to make Steiner look like a bad ass, but Hugh is above that and they're trying to make him a big deal. To have him look like any other jobber does less to make Rick look good and more to make Hugh look like a loser. Lance and Awesome came out. One distracted the ref, the other hit Hugh, and Rick hits a DVD for the win. Seriously, I think Hugh had 2 punches in the match. That was the entirety of his offense. Konnan makes a save. It was an extended squash for a guy you're trying to get to a semi main event level. Think about Ryback getting dominated for 12 minutes, hitting one move, and getting pinned right after.
Lex Luger vs Chuck Palumbo
This was supposed to be Buff vs Chuck, but Buff's injury on Nitro had him pulled from the match. Of course, Lex pouted about having to wrestle again and lose. They had a match 2 weeks ago on Thunder that was laid out so poorly that Arn Anderson got suspended for it. I don't remember any of it, but I'm sure it was really boring and Lex dominated. Chuck wins with a roll up out of a Torture Rack, which I think was how he beat Lex last time. And this was the same thing as that match, but shorter. I hope that means someone else got suspended.
TO THE BACK. Lex throws stuff around in the back. Konnan SHOOTS about politics and backstabbing.
A run down for WCW CREED plays. A long one, because they were filling time.
Lance Storm vs Konnan
Konnan attacked during the anthem. Can't wait for some USA chants in a match with a Canadian and a Cuban who pretends to be Mexican. Lots of cuts to the fans, so this must have been awful in the ring. Lance wins with the Maple Leaf. Awesome comes out, but Hugh makes the save.
EARLIER TODAY. Booker T talked about his injuries and returning.
TO THE BACK. Steiner and Cat head to the ring.
The Cat vs Scott Steiner
Within the first minute, Cat has more offensive against Scott, the WCW Champion, than Hugh Morris had against Rick, the US Champion. That's pretty fucking silly. He actually gets tons more offense than Hugh did. Actually, Hugh himself got way more offense against Scott than he did against Rick. What kind of backwards booking is that? Rick comes out and distracts Cat, which leads to a Steiner Recliner. Booker T came out and fought with Cat. So, Rick can DOMINATE Hugh for the entire match, but Scott almost loses and needs help from Rick to beat Cat. Makes sense. DDP comes out then the rest of the 7 hit the ring. Big brawl to end the show? Weird. Breaking new ground with that kind of booking. I'm not sure that had ever been done before. WCW, innovating until the end.

According to my calendar, i got Luigi's Mansion and Bioshock Infinite at the end of the month, followed by SMT: Soul Hackers in April, going into Soul Sacrifice in May. Random indie games like Monaco and Don't Starve and PSN games will fill in between those
Got a bunch of concerts in between too. Sold my Coachella tickets on some nice markup to fund a lot of my shit
Don't try getting yourself over at home kids, it's a dangerous sport.

What's wrong with tipping
What did them cows ever do to you?
err I got all my Wii stuff back when that bricked. My neighbor got all his 3DS stuff back when his was stolen. It's no different really.
It's not ideal mind but it does work.

I would prefer to see serving staff paid better so they don't have to rely on tips to survive. A tip should be something you give on top of your bill in exchange for good service, not something that's expected no matter the service. /British
