    Alright I watched long enough to see the Steiner brothers vs. Harlem Heat and that was a really fun match.  I think I'm going to take Raziel's suggestion and stop 98 and head to 91 and 92.  

     

    And of course on the ps3 version it stops at 93.  Maybe they have it on the computer version...

     

    91 and 92 are on WrestleWar those years.  93 is when they moved it to Fall Brawl.

     

     

    Found it, thank you.

  3. I've never seen a War Games ppv before so I picked War Games '98.  The opening match was Jericho vs Eddie for the cruiser weight title and I've already gotten my money's worth from the network.  Holy shit was that great.  I can't wait to see how the actual War Games match works.

  4. I was considering picking Tales of Xillia up. Any opinions on it?

     

     

    So far I am really liking it.  The loading speed of this game is amazing.  I also really like the unique look of the animation.  The voice acting for Jude, one of the main characters is pretty good, where I am not quite as enthused about Milla's, the other main character.  Linked combat is really fun and I just scratched the surface because of work last week.  I definitely would say this is worth a 10 buck pick up.

    We are the home team right?

    Are there many penalties that shouldn't have happened? We're all watching the same game.

     

     

    The first unsportsmanlike conduct should have been a no call.  If you really want to be literal yes there was a headbutt on that call but that is not a call you expect to see in the playoffs.

  6. Had 5 of my nephews over for an all-night gaming binge last night.  12-1/2 hours of gaming on 2 systems.  YEAH, BABY.

     

    Played a few games I hadn't previously tried:

     

    Fight Night Champion - Fun game but definitely some stuff about it that didn't make any sense, the stamina gauge especially.  Throw a few punches in the first couple seconds of a fight and you're completely gassed?  Makes no sense.  Also some of the KOs we had just didn't make any sense.  Tyson hits Butterbean square in the mush wth 3 straight huge uppercuts and he doesn't go down?  But Tyson gets hit with one and he's dunzo?  Yeah, no.

     

    Borderlands 2 - I liked the first game and this one seems like it would be pretty good too but.......... I dunno, I felt like I didn't quite know what I was supposed to be doing and how to improve, etc.  We were doing split-screen co-op, FWIW.  And whoever decided that there should be a few hours of gameplay on a frigging glacier should be shot.  "Hey, look, more snow and ice.  That'll be AWESOME and not at all visually bland and boring!!!!"

     

     

     

    The stamina gauge in Fight Night Champion was not always like it is now.  It was changed in an update well after release and I think it breaks the game more than it improves it.  I am a more defensive fighter and I couldn't fight to a decision if I wanted to because by the fifth or six round the computer is out of stamina and I knock them out.  It makes no difference if your fighting in amateur or greatest of all time.  I like the change as it differentiates the fighters but I think they over did it by a lot.

     

    I have spent most of my holiday vacation playing Borderlands 2 from PS+.  The game is never going to wow you with story, but once you get to Sanctuary, things do pick up.  I enjoy it just as much as I do the original even though the better loot seems harder to come by this time.  I finished the main story and ordered the GOTY edition so I'm gonna work on the DLC now that things have gotten a bit tougher in the second playthrough.
