Use Your Illusion

I liked it. Instead of going back entirely to the Deadman gimmick, Taker kept the traits and principles of the character (ability to control lighting, sitting up, rolling eyes etc.) while still maintaining his current image and persona. Instead of being one, Taker is being both the Underbiker and the Undertaker. I think it's great, and New York definitely thought the same. UYI

Chances are, Dama, you're going about it the same way every normal player does when they fight Moloch - full steam ahead. Moloch is, hands down, the easiest guy to beat in the game when you know how to. Usually I choose someone like Scorpion, Kung Lao or Kano, as they are guys who have really easy and quick 3-4 button combos. Simply nail Moloch with a combo non-stop until he dies. If he blocks, either immedietly hit your block button and hope to God he doesn't throw you, or quickly sidestep and lay into the fucker with another combo. Because he doesn't fall down, it's easy to just tear him to shreds without him even knowing what the hell is going on. UYI

I agree with your last comment, but the rest of it I don't. Raw has actually been better with Goldberg's hiatus - I feel that I'm right there - if you disagree with me, you're wrong. I'm sorry, did you say something? UYI

Well if you don't want to give him props for 'Sexy Boy', recognise the greatness of Hogan's WCW theme, 'American Made'. That had a young mark UYI dancing around his living room whilst stopping momentarily to 'Hulk Up'. UYI

Wow, that was crap.

I must be one of the few wanting Goldberg to stay. Fuck what the rest of you think, RAW seemed to have an increased excitement when he was around and if there is ever a time WWE needs recognisable stars, it's NOW. However, if this all leads to the building of new stars, then it is hard to see this as a bad thing. UYI

Because, by god, if he had your username, THEN HE MUST BE A HOMO!

No, he'll bring back ECW just so he can kill it off again to justify his ego being the size it is. UYI

Wishful thinking.

ECW brand? If there is a God, he'll prevent that. UYI

Sort of. However, I'd say this guy looks far more like Predator. With that shot of him and Spinal's skull, I think it's even more obvious. Ah, Fulgore from Killer Instinct. Indeed he does bare a greater resemblance to Predator than Cyrax/Sektor do. I owned a Megadrive back in the day, so I never got to play the first Killer Instinct. Was it released before or after Mortal Kombat 3 (the game by which Cyrax & Sektor debuted)?? UYI

By either going through Konquest or Arcade mode, you can only be awarded Koins, you can't actually unlock anything (except by completing all 218 missions on Konquest, by which you unlock the ability to play as Blaze and Mokap, both of which must also be paid for in the Krypt). The Koins you earn in either mode can be used in the Kyrpt to unlock anything and everything in the game, there are some great FAQs over at GameFAQs that detail the best Koffins to unlock (i.e. the ones with secret characters and arenas etc.). UYI

What is this thread about again?

I cannot wait to see the new Undertaker model that will undoubtably debut in this game (for his Deadman gimmick). I also hope to God they can shake the Lex Luger syndrome from Triple H and actually make him look like his real life counterpart. UYI

Holy shit, they nailed Hennig's model about as well as they could have. I'm in love with how Stinger is looking in those pics as well. Fucking unreal. UYI

For Fatalities, it works best to switch to 'Fatality mode' by hitting L1, the same way you'd change your fighting style. It doesn't matter what style you're in, when it says 'FINISH HIM!', hit L1 then pull off the combination. You can be anywhere you want and the computer will just morph both players to the right position and display the Fatality. Check out Movado's, Kung Lao's, Cyrax's and Sub-Zero's. On an unrelated note, I couldn't sleep last night and decided to just switch on the TV for a little while at about 2am. Predator was on and I was surprised the resemblances Cyrax and Sektor's original models bare to the Predator. Coincidence or not, I'd say Ed Boon recieved some inspiration from the design of that character. UYI

As far as I know, Flair did that promo (the one from the final Nitro) on the fly, and was probably just shooting off random names, and somehow Bagwell's was thrown in there. UYI

Such as posting pictures of yourself naked engaging in sexual acts with a cardboard cut-out of Triple H? UYI

Capcom have launched a Japanese website for the game, along with a few small screenshots: Streetfighter III Online UYI

I just had a discussion with someone over the difficulty of MK, and it seems that there really is little difference between the easiest level and the hardest, so it doesn't really matter what you play on, as the computer will just decide to be impossible at times. UYI

In the long run, a slightly higher buyrate for WMXX will work out the same as if it were any other PPV. McMahon has put a significant amount of money into the promotion of this event, not to mention the amount of star power that WWE will lose after the big show (HBK,Goldberg and Lesnar). However, with the older talent (minus Brock) leaving, it may just give WWE a chance to actually live up to the slogan they've stuck on WMXX and build up a new set of stars to inject the federation with some fresh ideas and characters. Of course, that would make total sense, so scratch that one. UYI

For the record, I only watch RAW, as SD! bores the ever loving shit out of me in every possible way. So there are people out there that are into WWE, but choose only to watch whatever they see as the superior show. UYI

That's probably because it is a Triple H catch phrase, and Helmsley is a RAW guy. The countless Rocky catch phrase titles can be attributed to Smackdown! being named after the Rock in the first place. An Eddie related title would own asses of several varieties. UYI

By "tank" do you mean sell out MSG and do a better buyrate than most other PPVs in this day and age? HA!

I love how DA pokes fun at itself. Within Cage's story: "Johnny Cage, fed up with storylines of his movies always involving him dying and then coming back to life again..." I also just unlocked Blaze, who is prooving to be pretty cool since he shares the same fighting style as Kano, who I've been unbeatable as so far. UYI
