Nintendo basically screwed themselves here. They didn't make enough units for the season. My store is basically gonna get 6 more before christmas and I got at least 30 people on the waiting list to get one.
-
So there gonna make people sit through 4 hours of crap? They better do more then 6 matches.

He didn't work 'main event style'. It was the same excuse given to bury anyone coming in that certain people didn't want to let get over. If someone wrestled in something other than the 'main event style', it was an excuse for people to claim they couldn't work, and so that person would get buried. It's the typical insular mentality, where anything that isn't done their way is automatically wrong, regardless of whether it actually is. Anyone who was a top person in WCW was buried by the WWE when they first came onto the scene. Booker T and DDP could have been booked as the heads of the WCW team but instead DDP got booked into that horrible angle with Undertaker were you really didn't know that DDP was even in the allanice angle unless the annoucers reminded you.

What makes you sure since WCW wrestlers were being advertised as well plus when the match was annouced the crowd cheered?

Has a number 30 entrant ever won a rumble?

To me the invasion was doomed when JR said this little line. JR: Booker T thinks he's Ric Flair! Thats when I knew the invasion angle was doomed espically since Booker T at the time was acting nothing like Flair. WWE screwed up by having Buff Bagwell do his first apperance by main eventing. No one had seen him wrestle in a few months and then all of a sudden he was main eventing Raw, it made no sense. Booker T vs Lance Storm or Hugh Morris, or even Mike Awesome would have made sense but Buff certinaly did not! I also think when the whole direction of the invasion angle turned, it went bad. When it first started out WWE fans were cheering the WCW guys then as the weeks went on, WWE made their fans start booing the WCW guys. If anything WWE should have their fans both cheer and boo the WCW guys, not one way or another. I hope you guys get what I'm saying, its sorta hard to explain.

Let me add to the list the ESPN football and Basketball games were better then Madden and NBA live. So much better that Madden and NBA live both dropped in price very quickly to try and compete.

Is the card seriously that weak? Thats really odd for a show after a pay per view. -
First off... EA can kiss my ass. The only thing they're trying to do with the whole NFL deal is scare other developers off from competeing with them. And no EA doesn't use the Xbox to any full ablities. Most of the EA racing games does not use custom soundtracks or the higher grapchics EA could use. EA favors the sony system over any other system and thats that. Oh I wouldn't use the Tony Hawk game as an example since Activison won't let the Xbox use its internet for their game while Activison lets Sony use their internet service for the Tony Hawk games. Also when EA releases a sequal to one of their games, they only really update one feature with it. Madden is a prime example. Last year was the play making, while this year they updated one of the defense features. Well if you look at the ESPN football this year, it updated a hell of a lot of features....I've probably gone a bit of track, basically when it comes to games EA sucks. The next football game will probably only have one updated feature and be the same excat game it was last year. Screw EA and I hope they screw up on this deal.

If this is true you really can't blame Foley for not shaking Flair's hand. I wouldn't either if someone just kept bashing me for my career...if i had one.
-
It'd be nice to see C.W. again, I haven't seen him wrestle since ECW....as long as the WWE doesn't have Spike walk all over him.

Since I work at a Gamecrazy, you'd be surprised how many times a week I have to go through this. Anyways I'll just tell you what I tell my customers. Xbox Pros: -Better Graphics - Faster Load Times - 4 controller ports (good for you and your siblings) - You'll save money with an Xbox - Xbox Live - Many games use the Xbox Live in some way or another - Harddrive, so you don't need a memory card, games can be saved to the console itself - Can save songs from CD's to the Xbox harddrive and can be used to replace shitty game soundtracks. (Does not work for all games) - $149.99 for a system and you get NCAA College Football and Topspin as a gift along with a 2 month free trial of Xbox Live - 4 Xboxes can be system linked for 16 or less player games Xbox Cons: - To play dvd's, you need to have the DVD playback Kit - Less games then what a PS2 has to offer - Extra Controllers and DVD playback kits are 30 bucks - Theme towards Teenagers and Adults, there isn't a whole lot of kiddie and family games for the system Xbox Neutral: - Xbox Live requries a High Speed Internet Connection and costs 49.99 per year or 5.99 a month. If you go 5.99 a month you'll end up paying 59.99. But the Xbox Live service is well worth. Free Downloads for games, Friends list, invite/messege friends, and the headset can be used for any Xbox Live Game. - Not many RPGS but if your a RPG fan, Star wars Knights of the Old Republic 1 and 2 and Fable will satisfy you. Along with Jade Empire that comes out next year. PS2 Positives: - More Games (is able to play PS1 games.) - Sexier new look to the system - More games are PS2 only for a little bit (I.E. the Grand theft auto Series and Metal Gear.) - Has games for everyone - Gets more RPGS - Is able to play DVD's right off the bat without a remote - Extra Controllers cost less then Xbox controllers do - Can buy a harddrive for 100 bucks. - Some game companys favor Sony over Microsoft so the PS2 normally gets a few more things on their games. For example on the PS2 Tony Hawk got online while the Xbox verison did not and its the company that makes Tony Hawk that decides that. PS2 Negitives: - Need to buy a crap load of accessories - Need a Memory Card to save progress that cost 25 bucks - If you wanna do 3 or 4 players you need to buy a multi tap that cost, I think 35 bucks. - Slow...very slow load times. (I honestly can't play PS2 games now cause I get so impatiant with waiting.) - A lot of people do not like the internet service, even through I hear its free and only a few games require a fee. - The Harddrive as far as I know only works for Final Fantasy and can not be used in the sexier PS2's, until a adaptor is made (there might be one coming out this month.) - For $149.99 you only get a system with one controller. PS2 Neutrals: -I don't like the controller layout, I can't stand the analogs right smackdab in the middle of the controller. But thats just me, others like the controller, others feel the same way as - Some don't mind using a memory card as long as their not buying multiple memory cards. - The headset is only used with a few games not all. So in conclusion....Go with an Xbox, you'll enjoy it more unless your parents have a problem with game ratings and won't allow you guys to play Teen and Mature rated games and you'll save some money with buying the system.

It could possibly work but its WWE writers so it most likely won't. Anyways if its done the set up should be.... Long re-hired Simmons because he's an old friend and Long use to manage Simmons in Doom (won't be said because its WWE). And JBL is worried/pist because he feels Long is out to get him by hiring back the guy JBL really didn't put up a fight with Heyman to keep Simmons on SD! and it just goes from there. Maybe they have a match at the Febuary ppv if its not a Raw PPV.

Why would I want to download some of his old matches when I just have to see more of him every Monday night? Every month is a HHH month, its been that way for awhile now.

Your having AV problems.

I couldn't agree any more. When my friend first put this movie on, we all thought we were gonna laugh at it because we thought it was gonna be one of those movies with horrible death scenes, we were so wrong. When the girls jumped off, we were just silent and were just in "what the hell" mode for the rest of the movie. I left my friends house when they go to the frank N. Furter-ish guy came on and he was stomping on the white cloths...that move is pretty fucked up.

Alexander - Well, it's apparently a pile of shit.

I thought more of a young Mel Gibson.... Anyways I saw this movie on Saturday and I found it decent. I like history stuff so thats why I was intrested in seeing it. The reason I found it decent was because I could sit through it and not want to get up. The fight scenes were really nice, a lot of gore in them and a lot of fighting. Jolie was good, along with Kelimer. For those who are saying the war scenes are bad...why? What was so bad about the two? They were these two intense war scene that were ment to be intense. As far as the homosexuality goes...that stuff happen back then, so why it shouldn't be in the film if it was apart of the history, I don't see why not. The acting besides Jolie and Val were bland altogether. I didn't really pay attention to all the dialoge because I was to busy looking at the sets and backrounds were just amazing to see. If your someone who isn't into history then I don't recommand this movie till it comes out to rent, but honestly this movie isn't that bad as some of you are making it sound. -
Most likely, MadCatz products are known to break down...a lot. If your looking for a different brand I recommand stuff from Intec and Logitech. These two from what I have experianced don't get returned as often.

How would they get in trouble. Cartoon Network didn't add any scenes to the movie, they just aired it. Besides that I'm pretty sure Cartoon Network isn't just for kids anymore. With the addition of Adult Swim, i'm sure CN is ment for all ages.
-
I'm gonna say it'll end up being Batista and HHH as the final two. HHH will tell Batista to step over and elimate himself, Batista will then refuse and it goes from there.

There's a few barbie games out there, if anything I'd go with a Ratchet and Clank game or a DDR game. There's a new DDR game that is a bundle of a pad and a game for 54.99.

I rather have Rhodes as a booker then Jarrett. Jarrett it would be him and his crew just running things, at least with Rhodes other guys have chances to improve.
-
It all depends, if Heyman and a few guys who actually went through ECW, maybe like Taz or Dreamer had the creative part, and maybe Vince had some of his people deal with the bookings of buildings and other buissness areas, then it could work. Maybe also give Heyman or Dreamer, hell even Lance Storm maybe talent scouting and not let talent be forced to do the watered down wrestling of the WWE. It might work. Otherwise it wouldn't.

They wern't in street clothes, they were in their wrestling gear. It looked like they were wearing Dean Malenko's old trunks but shiny. They were standing close to Orton and were right in front of Viscera. So if you watch right before you see Viscera comes into the picture they are both in front of them. It could have been La Rez, but it really didn't look like them.
