Just like Duke Nukem Forever and Daikatana, right? Maybe you can crank up "Chinese Democracy" while you play it, too. The Sega CD and 32X were both big blunders, but you act is if it was impossible for Sega to bounce back after that. I disagree. However, Sega blundered far too much. They made decisions so boneheaded that Nintendo's track record is sparkling. For example: Digital Pictures, putting all their advertising into a half-assed licensed games, not promoting a ton of quality titles at all. I think the DC SC1 plays better, too, but that's mainly a programming thing, as opposed to technical. You do know know "average" and "subpar" means, right? They're used to describe games somewhere between "good" and "bad." Video game are traditionally rated in regard to similar titles on the same system. Also, if VJ is just "average," where are all those platformers that are head-and-shoulders above it, not just on Gamecube but on any of the big 3 systems? Tell me, because I really wanna know. Like all those casual gamers who bought a PS2 to play Madden, right? Sure, and I'll point you to all the crap PS2 and PS1 games that have flooded the market, most of which are probably made by Acclaim. The GBA is more popular than the GC and X-Box combined, you know that right? When they put out the craptacular N64. The GBA's installed user base is huge. No smart developer will abandon it for a system that is already known to be hard to develop for and doesn't have any units sold yet. Yes, developers will probably line up to make PSP games, but if they aren't able to get people to pay for the system, that ends quickly. Maybe it will...after drastic price cuts, just like the GC is the top selling console right now because everyone already owns the PS2, and the X-Box, while doing well, hasn't grown as much. Thattaboy. Completely ignore my point that there are more 3rd party titles scheduled right now for the GC than for the PS2, and they're on par with X-Box. Adios to crapmakers Rare and Acclaim, too. They won't be missed.

I got a reply from him. Here's the original e-mail he sent: And my reply to him:

1) Her daddy's money. 2) She hangs around with famous people, pretending she's a celebrity. 3) She hawks a line of gawd-awful purses. 4) She's trying to start a singing career...Lord help us.

"Many WWE wrestlers are getting sick of Bob Holly. The word is that he is always in a grumpy mood, is very bitter, and feels he should get big pushes just because of how long he has been with the company." I've heard this four years ago, how is this news? "Kurt Angle is going into WrestleMania XX with very high hopes for his match with Eddie Guerrero. Angle has been telling people that he feels 100% and plans to have the 'match of the show.' He is also thrilled that he has an opponent like Guerrero who can keep up with and complEment him." I'm wondering just how this is going to play out on SD myself. Have they ever had a TV match together, to anyone's knowledge?

Uh....I wouldn't say the men are anywhere near that bad. But they should fire the men and women who suck. Wow, champion of a group of about 5 girls. Hooray. And the reason people could be against it is because it is like watching a bunch of talentless, slow cruiserweights with boobs.

Worse yet, 100 bucks AND buying a Final Fantasy title. Eh-eh.

I never thought she looked all that hot. I was wondering what the hell Lawler was creaming himself over. Also, I assume they'll be going with a Vicky/Molly rematch, because Lita and Vicky just did not click well at all tonight. Maybe it is just that Molly is more experienced and actually has worked with Lita a lot more, but they seemed lost in there.

She started out as just a spot machine, and that was fine when she could just interfere and use her moves against men. However, those types of moves need to mainly be done by and done against very well-trained wrestlers, or they'll be botched or look extremely sloppy. To boot, Fit's trained most of the girls in a more grounded style. Take a look at what happened when Gail came in. No, she wasn't any good, but her complete clash with the rest of the division made her even more of a disaster. Lita's been transitioned to a more grounded style, but she's still gonna botch moves. She isn't a very good wrestler, and most of her opponents aren't so great in the ring either. So, womens' matches in WWE end up as sloppy, slow, contrived bouts most of the time. Get used to it.

*checks Gamefaqs for list of upcoming releases* Looks about the same for American releases for all three consoles, although as far as Japan third party titles, yeah, not much there. Also, Sonic Heroes came out on all three, Resident Evil for is a Gamecube exclusive right now, and the revamped MGS: Twin Snakes would be a great pickup if I didn't despise MGS2 and played MGS1 to death. Those two are third party titles, though. X-Box has Halo 2 coming...uh...someday. Supposedly Doom 3 if anyone still cares. However, like Sony they aren't a 1st party developer, just a console maker. Admittedly, X-Box does have a good lineup, that I'm not denying. And Rare...yeah, there's a company that screams quality. Hot damn, DK 64 and Star Fox Adventures were fantastic titles, weren't they? Shame Nintendo lost them. Face it, without Miyamoto to overlook them, Rare's worthless. They also lost Acclaim. OH HOW WILL THEY EVER SURVIVE?! Sega CD hurt them, but it didn't kill them. Having a system $100 more with a couple games that looked like crap, and continually pushing the 3D games which were NOT the system's strength killed them, as far as I'm concerned. If the Saturn hadn't been screwed over from the start, they might have had something there. Plus, the titles that were big hits on the Playstation took forever to come out on Saturn, if it all. Plus, no awesome 3D Sonic at launch, no killer aps to speak of (VF was not a system seller in the States. Toshinden sucked, but it looked better, and Tekken upped the ante), and a non-existent ad campaign all contributed to its downfall. Sony let out "DVD-ROM" and third parties abandoned like rats for the PS2. In many ways, the DC is technologically superior to the PS2 (although they both have the jaggies), and if it was still being developed for, you'd see it's still very powerful, although inferior to the Box and Cube. "Just a side-scroller beat 'em up..." with an innovative fighting system (with the slow mo, hyper speed) with puzzle-solving and old-school platforming goodness, great music and just damn fun to play. Billy Hatcher is "above average," when you take into account all the cheap, chinzy, crummy 3D plats on the market like Ty. How was the N64 overrated when pretty much everyone agrees it sucked? Other than them holding off Atari, Sega, Bandai, Nokia and a score of other handhelds that didn't stand much of a chance like the Neo Geo Pocket Color (great system, BTW), no. However, as far as the PSP, I don't see much on the horizon except for plenty of half-assed 3D games to come... When the PSP is released with a ton of bad PS1 games, will you still bitch about the GBA having a bunch of mostly-good SNES games re-released? Think with the Game Boy is, it isn't just the games or the hardware, it's that it is Game Boy. The name "Game Boy" alone is one of Nintendo's biggest assets. Kids know the name, adults know it, and people of all ages know it, and they all buy. The PSP will never catch up to its library due to backward compatibility, and it is affordable and developer-friendly. If Sony plans to deliver the PSP for more than 100 bucks, that ain't gonna cut it. I don't think Sony knows just what it is getting into. However, I fear the DS will fuck Nintendo over...

I guess the drastic change would be a bit too soon...

Why is Stacy wearing those shoes with that outfit? CHOKESLAM THEM, KANE!!

Ah yes, we have to announce the match so bad that the best wrestler in it is Sable.

No...we're not there yet. When you see "Randy Orton #1 HEEL on Raw" then we've hit rock bottom. In other words, when he's the only heel on Raw?

What happened to Trish's voice?

Bud Bundy?

Walls of Jericho! Awesome!

Slap to the ass! YES!! CLOTHESLINE!

Does anyone think if Foley fails to get Orton over, that they'll give it up? Yeah, me neither.

Because someone thinks this will make us care about Orton, I guess.

So, Orton fucked up again. Figures.

"Earlier today, I visited Purgatory and spoke to Mick."

Yeah, but that lead to that hilarious RTC parody. ... Think they'll have Randy parodying it?

If Hillary Duff is in scantily clad clothes count me in~! ...how old are you? 21, and you know you'd hit it too No. Oh, and Foley is a big fat fucking whore.

TO HELL WITH STEVE ALLEN!

If Hillary Duff is in scantily clad clothes count me in~! ...how old are you?
