  1. Fair enough. I just thought using "here's Davey trying to make a Bullet Club match any good" was totally unfair to the kind of output he usually has. Also a chance to say that Shibata/Davey was my favorite match of the G1
  2. Last year was the point that I was convinced Sami had a chance without the Generico gimmick, which is a pretty amazing achievement.
  3. The Rhodes Boys Vs. Reigns & Rollins was my match of the year last year, so, uh, Cody.
  4. Wrong Davey Boy match. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuCVzewYtpM
  5. Dolph may have had a bad year, BUT, Kota is yet to prove to me that he's actually a real person, much less make me think a wrestling match is real for the duration of it. also I've seen him put knees up for elbow drops, frankensteiner people by the hair, do repeated snap german suplexes with a "weakened" "leg", and he keeps doing last rides like it doesn't make wrestling look less real than reality tv. He's been one of my least favorite wrestlers for years and years, and his now contractually ensured presence in New Japan bums me the hell out.
  6. Roman is pretty clearly going to be in the future in WWE, which is great, because La Sombra is tops right dang now.
  7. Terrible's eternal feud with Rush is everything good about professional wrestling. At the same time I think the more notable stuff he's done this year has centered around his tag team with Tama Tonga, so here's both of those things happening at the same time.
  8. You lose NOTHING when someone says "no thanks." Fuck. Aren't you older than I am?
  9. New trailer says Ultra Street Fighter IV lets you pick versions of characters from different iterations of SF4. So basically everyone that was horrifically unbalanced is back in play because fuck you. like, the trailer even stresses AE Yun Vs. Vanilla Sagat like that needed to be an option at all, you sick fucks
  10. Between the stuff with Swagger, the stuff with Ziggler, and me just generally liking to watch Del Rio wrestle as a heel, I don't mind looking like a crazy person and voting against Wagner.
  11. jimmy uso asked road dogg on live television what it was we were supposed to know vote uso.
  12. Devitt is maybe the worst heel I've ever seen. This is also considering that while Japanese juniorweight wrestling has a proud history of The Worst Heels I've Ever Seen (Kotaro Suzuki springs to mind) that even in the face of such consistantly terrible fucking heels, Devitt might still be the worst. On the flipside, I haven't watched a full episode of Impact since the first monday night show, and Aries sings in a buttrock band now. So I guess I have to vote for Devitt.
  13. THERE'S A MONTH LEFT UNTIL BALLOTS ARE DUE. DETAILS HERE. wait how long is left? A MONTH. o ok and what's there a month left until? UNTIL BALLOTS ARE DUE. alright cool and where are the details? HERE. okay thanks.
  14. Since those Batmen games are basically metroid games, can we make the portmanteau Metroidvaniarkham and just piss on English as best as we can?
  15. It's a good thing that a vote for the Gringos is a vote against the nonsense of a team being better than the Dynamic Duo.
  16. I HAVE BEEN WAITING A WEEK TO POST THIS. Young Fathers should be the biggest band in the world. [chorus] Come here and do the right thing Get up and have a party Get up Get up Come here and do the right thing Get up and have a party Get up Get up Got no past no future Fumbling through the ether Take a ride in Aquila Cost you 30 liras Pushy dealer hits the meter A shrewd operator In the shadow of a beacon Have a dirty weekend Interesting proposition Insinuate then listen Listen listen What a way to make a living S-s-scissor to the ribbon Throw my hands like a reverend Triple sixes double sevens When I get down to this I'm the catalyst For a revolution For a revolution For a revolution-tion-tion-tion [chorus] Beautiful corpse Beautiful How you lie so still Another life fulfilled Oh beautiful corpse Beautiful How you lie so still Another life fulfilled Fifteen hundred red cases A multitude of faces The body in the basement Double on the bunk bed You better watch the babies Careful with your manners Only drinking water on the Co-co-co-cabaƱa Well built family Subject to the battery the battery Mental men are manic in their manacles I meant to make a metaphor for radicals Taking off my clothes at the lido All I got is my decadent credo I don't think that I could watch you posing dead (I don't think that I could watch you posing dead) Get up Get up Get up Get up Come here and do the right thing Get up and have a party Get up Get up Abandoned by a suffragette Given to a gang of gits Sold to a pack of losers downtown Apalucia I heard you got guns Well I got fun I got something sweet What you call sin so You lose I win I saw some bunch of cowboys today I wooped-di-wood and they turned and rode away Get up Get up Get up Get up [chorus]
  17. Maybe I'm a jackass (it's entered my mind before), but I believe that you earn every missed opportunity that happens from buying electronics at launch. The premium you pay for is "me first," which is worth something in middle/high school.
  18. If you like musicians that play like they're actively trying to defeat their instruments (Colin Stetson, Tommy Emmanuel, Okkyung Lee) then meet Lubomyr Melnyk. Here's half a song from his new album, Windmills. This one is written for two pianos. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lxd_fjePId0
  19. Pre-ordered it on PC this weekend. I appreciate how there's no, like, Digital Collectors Editions or anything like that. The thing I get for pre-ordering it is being able to just download it instead of argue with the store on a day of the week that's usually super busy for me. For no extra charge, even! I'm excited to be the worst titan pilot on earth. Although apparently a later perk lets your auto-deployed titan use its special weapons when appropriate, so maybe at that point I'll just use it as a roaming sentry thing. We'll see. Right now I'm still committed to shotgunning fools.
  20. A review of Dark Souls II has appeared in a European magazine. The larger point is that it details how co-op multiplayer works. Seeing the Souls games are about discovery, I'm gonna spoiler tag this one. The non-spoiler version is "it's exactly as convoluted as you think it would be."
  21. Fuck me, because I asked and got an answer. I WILL LOVE AGAIN, THIS IS MY PUNK ROCK. EDIT: okay you know what just fuck everything about this week
  22. Titanfall is 6v6 for design, not for "limitations." The maps would not be able to hold more than 12 titans without severely impacting how fun it would be to use them. Even in one of the beta maps, all twelve titans being deployed caused a lot of traffic issues, as they would crowd the hotspots and make it hard for people to maneuver smoothly and effectively. The general scale of the maps is that when on foot you're dealing with three-to-four levels with variance between indoor and outdoor areas. Once you're in the titan, the maps is limited to one or two of those areas, outdoors. That way the human players can maneuver around them to high ground or recessed low ground and compete with them without risking a face to face confrontation that they would lose basically immediately. If you're worried about not having enough dudes to shoot, the map gets populated with minor AIs that engage in little dynamic sequences (think the staircase melee fight from the Call of Duty 4 campaign) that you can influence. Killing these minor AIs shorten the amount of time remaining until you can call your titan. Just... go watch the game get played if you think that 16 vs. 16 or 32 vs 32 is practical in that game. ALSO: Kind of insane that a game cant self-impose limits to make it feel different than other games! Kind of insane that that's considered a strike against it! BACK TO TALKING ABOUT DESTINY NOW: it looks really cool, but I need at least five games I feel I NEED to play before I commit to the PS4, and I'm probably boxing up my 360 soon.
