There's no way TNA can survive by the end of the year. Who is writing this garbage.

At this point, I'd be morbidly curious enough to watch TNA if they seriously just re-hashed all WWE angles on a three-month cycle. In June, get all the fans in the ring to go nuts with Samoa Joe.

Banjo Tooie is cool. Not as good as the first one, but still really really good. DK64 is where they went off the rails. There's no shame in defending the honor of Banjo-Tooie as long as you disown canary mary.
From 14-22 or so, JR got more and more pissed at King every year for the stupid shit he was saying. There were a few times (during Austin matches and Divas matches especially) where it sure seemed like he wanted to tell King to shut the fuck up.

Jared Rea is the community manager of WWE games now. Let's bug him about changing the engine.

No doubt. Sometimes I think people forget how good it actually is if you haven't listened to the full album in a while and realize that it was made by a group of drugged up guys in their early 20s.

That picture is saying no to Just Say No to drugs. More apt with the folks involved I suppose.
When I was in like elementary(or maybe jr high) we went to some health tour thing that was I guess supposed to get you excited about health and not do drugs? You know kind of like the South Park drug episode had at the start.
Anyways, Lex Luger was in it. And even juvenile Dragonzord was like 'really, the total package is telling me not to do drugs?'

It's a cruel world when Yuke's is still making wrestling games while Aki is now making Style Savvy games. I'd even settle for a new Def Jam wrestling game.
In the latest series of "Stro has weird dreams", I had a few.
One started in a truck where in between the bed and the seats was a special compartment where Steve Austin was hiding. My 11th grade psych teacher was driving. Steve and I talked. He said sometimes you have to cut out the drinking, because doing it too long will change you. I discussed with him how I was drinking less often and less when I do drink. He gave me the old salute, but didn't offer me any promo codes, which bothered me in retrospect.
Another took place at my aunt's house where this crazy woman was trying to reinact the plot of Scream. When we all realized what she was trying to do, we made her leave. She did it in the house across the street. It wasn't the exact plot to Scream, but the plot to Scream as it happened in this dream's universe. And once she got near the end of the plot, we all decided to get the fuck out because she was coming back for us. So my family and I run out the back, slip on ice around the pool and get into a big van. We stop at what appears to be an abandoned country school because the ladies have to tinkle. My uncle picks the lock, but the school isn't abandoned at all. It was made up entirely of black and mixed kids. One of them knew me. It was a girl who was probably 14 who looked like Mr. Perfect had an affair with a black woman. She was even wearing a Mr. Perfect singlet, the yellow and black one. I wondered how she knew me, because I don't know 14 year olds. It turns out she had stolen a shoe of mine years prior and remembered me. And was taunting me with it and I couldn't get my shoes back because she was on a bike.
It was pretty odd all around.

I don't remember it clearly or really anything of it but I had a dream I was back down in OVW and Rip Rogers was working with someone in the ring, then the ring and surrounding area started to transform into like, old time store shelves like something out of a general store.
Speaking of which, who wants to watch a two hour match? No one? Well too bad... Well, I don't either but here it is.

The series stopped being a yearly thing for me after HCTP came out because I was completely turned off by the changes (especially adding voice acting which killed the story mode) made with the first SvR and 06 was a disappointment despite some improvements, I didn't buy another one until SvR 2011 and was left disappointed again but like a fool I came back for WWE '13 better than 2011 and maybe the best one since HCTP but still in typical Yuke's fashion, two steps forward, three steps back and still with stupid, flat out stupid design choices.
Yeah... 14 years since the first Smackdown and the engine is even older. It's ridiculous never mind how they managed to somehow go backwards with wrestler appearances. A part of me thinks that the partnership with Jakks ending played a part in it and that maybe that's where they got their scan data from and once Jakks Pacific was out of the picture they lost access to that data. It's either that or the people responsible for the models either left the Smackdown team at Yuke's or the company all together. It's kind of annoying knowing that Yuke's is capable of something better.
I really hope this year is different but it likely won't despite a lot of the annoying THQ guys having left, that's still a move in the right direction. An increase in budget would help since the other option of having more time for development isn't going to happen, still wouldn't get us a new engine unless 2K has an internal team working on it in secret.

Can't help you with that question but I like your screen name and avatar.
Yuke's don't seem able to keep up with the stuff they're adding to the games, and what they're adding is a story mode every year at this point. The actual 30 Years of WrestleMania mode is way worse than the wrestlers you get from it. WWE 2k14 would be a way better game if they had stuck all the characters in there and spent the time on bug fixes instead. It's way buggier than WWE '13, which was a buggy fucking game.
It's never been addressed in any manner from WWE. Fans just assumed that would be coming at some point, but WWE has never said anything about putting up all Nitros or Raws. I imagine Nitros and Raws will end up getting put up when the Monday Night Wars starts airing, which I believe starts next month. They're probably not going to put up years at a time but instead however many episodes they run of MNW at a time.
It took me entirely too long to figure out what magic was happening here.
Oh, that's too bad. I'm sure they'll upload them at some point. It'd be such a shame if they never did anything with all that content they acquired when they bought WCW, not to mention all the classic Raw is War tv shows from the late 80s/90s that made the company what it is today

This was probably posted already but I saw this a few days ago. Pretty well made. I hope they do a sequel after Wrestlemania.

Another fun day with wXw. Didn't see any leprechauns so I guess JamieOD wasn't there? I don't know that's what Irish look like right?
Anyway the show began with Chris Hero (vs. Adam Cole) ...
and ended with Hero as the second time 16 Carat Gold winner!
Also got a pic with Kushida in which I look pretty dumb but I am still happy I have it.
And so that I don't feel too bad I got his shirt.
Also I guess now I can start playing Kinpuro?
Matt Striker wrestled today as well with Trent Suretto (sp?). They actually were a great heel team, Matt was actually really good. And my good is he still fun at the mic.

Watching some ROH - good opening match with Elgin vs Tyson Dux (who you might remember as a jobber in WWE a decade ago), in what's a sort of student vs mentor encounter. Dux is a fairly big name in Canadian wrestling and ROH brought him in a few times during the HDnet era, but he doesn't get booked often in the states. This was a better match than the usual Elgin formula, largely thanks to Tyson's good selling and the counter spots he used.
That's Trent Barreta, I think - glad Hero won, I'll definitely grab the finals on DVD when they're released. Also, lol at the Engrish on KUSHIDA's shirt.

How big of a mark must you be to keep purchasing the WWE games every year? Mr. Sandman-level huge?
It could actually do without without the Skyrim music... you know, I'm actually hyped for the pre-WM30 official montage with some corny-ass music and... well, kinda like this video actually, but updated.
