I wouldn't blame the programmers, because a lot of the decisions are likely made by those guys in suits. I'd say Metal Slug Advance, but that game should have been out last year, so I don't think it counts. However, put me down for Crimson Tears, the Astro Boys, that weird-ass-looking Katamari Damacy (IF it comes out here...), and Tales of Symphonia. If they don't monumentally screw it up, Kingdom Hearts II could really be something. Red Star could be decent, although the Acclaim name on it makes me very uneasy.

Correction to topic title: "Most anticipated sequel." Apparently no one is interested in original titles anymore.

Gail stretches Stacy into an upskirt shot? Are they trying to turn her face?

Yes it does--the 98 Rumble Casket Match is where Shawn suffered his career-ending injury. So HHH may want to challenge him to one to "finish the job for good." Would Lita still suck as a vampiress in a skimpy one-piece red outfit that just barely covers her breasts and ass? *Realizes next to no one will get that...*

Yes, and we love you for it anyway, Yuna. I'll admit the blond hair was indeed a good look for Depp. I barely recognized him when I first saw him in the commercials. Anyone like to give a summary of what won what? I know MTV's awards mean jack squat, but I'm curious anyway.

That's quite a metric assload of content. However, the price probably will be kinda steep..

I've actually shopped at the mall where they filmed Dawn... Although as one review site pointed out...there's something about watching it on DVD that doesn't feel right. It should be viewed on a crusty old rental tape covered in stickers, with the actual film print carefully aged like a fine wine. THAT'S the real Dawn of the Dead experience. Still, I'll probably have to check this out, since I don't actually own a copy of DawnotD.

If Vince is in need of a hoss-like evil Oriental, he can always give Beefcake a call.

Or donuts. I wonder if there's a Krispy Kreme Kenter out there somewhere.

Not anymore.

"New Preview: RAW comes to you tonight from the Nutter Center in Dayton, Ohio" HAHAHHA!! Wow, some one came up with a worse name than the Dunkin' Donuts Arena.

I'm not convinced about it being "good," since no one really told me why it should be considered such. As for "cheap"--no, it isn't. $24.99 for a used copy? I ain't feelin' that. It sounds like it would be a great promotional item, but not material for a full retail-priced game.

Ransom EX has a lot of changes that reviewers have thought rather unnecessary, even game-damaging. FFO is basically the arcade game...and little else. Not bad, but it shows its age. Double Dragon Advance doesn't look as good as FFO, but the changes are all for the better. I didn't know Astro Boy was anything of the sort--I thought it was a platformer. Oh, and may want to wait until it is out first to recommend it. A friend has Gekido, and it looks pretty damn good.

Just seems like its part of the gimmick. HBK was more then capable of defending himself too but he had bodyguards cause it was part of the gimmick... Plus, rock stars' bodyguards usually are required to be able to carry the guy he's guarding when said rock star is drunk off his ass and passed out. I wouldn't be surprised if lots of wrestlers had similar things happen.

Oh, the TV ads for this movie... The movie that is taking American "by storm!" (rolls eyes...HAHAHA--so funny! KILL ME!!!) "Totally Cool." - Gene Shalit "What a ride!" - Joel Seigel Those are apparently the best blurbs that they could find that were somewhat positive. Why do movies like this have quotes like those attached? They're so transparent that anyone who pays attention to them would see them as gigantic red flags. And Ebert sorta/kinda liked it, but he also liked both Tomb Raiders and Speed 2. We're all wrong sometimes. Although seeing the credited director was enough for me to not even consider seeing it.

Come on, that would be too obvious. Surely they'd have Rikishi play that role. That's what Samoans are for!

If A-Train was a just-debuting wrestler, I'd say he'd fit the role perfectly. He kinda looks Soviet-ish. When he had the beard, he looked quite a bit like Zangief to boot. Just add the mohawk and trim him up a bit. Oh wait--WWE banned piledrivers. Eh, I guess the Siberian Suplex will have to do. Although the guy who played Zangief in the Van-Damme Street Fighter movie was about the only entertaining thing about the film.

You are in violation of thinking differently! Anytime a OVW Hoss is called up, he sucks despite only having one match and being told to not sell for anyone. I wonder why he's only had one match on TV... Oh, and "bodybuilder?" Yeah, THAT sounds promising.

He was Lord of the B movies Ten years ago too lets not kid ourselves.. and don't forget the Renegade....with the guy in the side car following him on his many adventurers while avoiding the law but wanting to go home, but can't for some reason. (Damn one arm man! Oh wait thats the Fugutive) Actually, I was talking about Renegade--that's the the first thing that popped into my head as what this movie's plot sounds similar to.

The FFTs don't really anything to do with the rest of the FFs. It's just that FFTA was a bad sequel to a good game. Difference of opinion there. It wasn't a bad ad (cheesy J-Pop and opinion on the actual game aside), but that was just overkilled. However, the FFTA commercials wore out their welcome the first time they were shown. "So call now, or I may become irritable!" Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga is good, and either Mario vs. Donkey Kong or the 1994 Game Boy game are too.

I would never, ever recommend FFTA. It munches. Even if you get past the horribly outdated and slow battle system, there's the stupid judges and terrible, insulting story. If you find yourself relating to the characters in the game, do yourself and everyone else a favor, and kill yourself. Oh, it also produced some of the worst TV ads in the history of video games. Try Ninja Five O if you can find it.

If they want him to lose weight, shouldn't they find him a persona that doesn't revolve around his big fat ass? Because you know if he did lose the weight, they'd release him anyway because "creative had nothing for him to do."

Does HHH actually think he's sexier than Lorenzo Lamas was 10 years ago? Ironically, Lamas is like the Lord of the B-movie Lead these days. Every half-ass cheapo flick seems to have him in it: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001444/ Does this mean we're going to have to see Vince and Bruce Pritchard dressed as 70's relief pitchers? Who will play HHH's Native American buddy?

Well, they released the Zelda collection disc for GC, but that has some glaring omissions: Link to the Past (which got a stand-alone GBA release) and the Game Boy games. I think they were worried about people complaining that they tinked with a classic, or just figured that if you were into it enough to want to play the original, you wouldn't really need an upgraded version, and so Nintendo could focus energies elsewhere. Plus, the game that is often considered the one of the very best of the Zelda games, OoT, isn't possible on the GBA. It's be interesting to see them put Zelda 1, 2, LttP, Link's Awakening, the Oracles, and maybe even the new GC Four Swords all together--but sounds more fitting to a Gamecube Disc. Why they didn't do a better job the last time I don't get. Nintendo's Incomplete Anthologies of LoZ are getting increasingly annoying. Do it right, already. Upgraded graphics and music, but nothing else! I've noticed in general that the recent trend of Retrogaming usually strays far away from "upgrading" the original game. Of course, there's good ways to do it--Double Dragon Advance, and bad ways to do it--River City Ransom EX. Nintendo seems to be going the "safe" (or lazy) route and not upgrading. Then again, there's that puzzling Zero Mission...resting somewhere between "remake" and "prequel."

Oh sure, in Exhibition it's not a problem, but in Season, it's quite different. It actually seems like the opponents get luckier as you increase the CAWs stats. Besides, I've never had problems beating Big Show, so that's a very poor example. I love the realistic aspect of the game that requires the smaller in-game wrestlers 4 times the amount of moves that the hosses need to do to win. Because when the smaller guys win in WWE matches, it's because they've absolutely dominated the match. HCTP is clearly the most well-balanced, realistic wrestling game on the market...except for all those other games that are better that came out a long time ago. I don't get what the "different moves" thing is supposed to mean. Guys with higher strength do even Cruiser moves better than the Cruiserweight guys, since moves aren't divided up by the type of wrestler that would do them and would be more skilled at them.
