  1. What the hell's the deal with this PPP Tokyo show on 3/5? They're filming that right? I gotta see Saya Iida vs. Kaho Kobayashi.
  2. TJPW 2/24 HIMAWARI went next level. She did the Mr. Perfect hop-over neckbreaker. Dumped Mizuki like some hardcore elementary school recess fight. Dudes were working their asses off in that semi-final.
  3. forza and gran turismo on the same system. Who gets edged out?
  4. What's that Brody payday lookin' like? 250k? Cool million?
  5. Okada to DDT! Skip the middleman.
  6. This was recommended after a long string of Miss Mongol and FMW-E. I fell in love 9000 times.
  7. This is kinda weird because I just did the PS+ 1 year thing on cdkeys and then upgraded to the extra tier yesterday. I wanted to play sea of stars, miles morales and horizon 2. Not interesting, just weird.
  8. Midsummer Festival: Okay, I was loving this show from the start. Ami is a Gori-san fangirl confirmed. When Dump started coming out I was like "Aw shit this dude is fucking immobile this is going to suck she needs a helper in a mask just to get out there" Then, she gets in the ring and I am transported to a fantasyland where Kabiki-punk abelitas run roughshod and everything is alright. I already knew Kyoko Inoue was awesome but all the old ladies seriously brought the COOL. When Jaguar Yokota is asking if she should join Oedo Tai I'm all whoopin' and a hollering in the middle of nowhere. She got that local VFW last call sexy voice! 8/26 Nagoya STARdom. Could this be the perfect show? I thought 5.20.2023 was magic in a bottle but this was seriously amazing. Natsuko vs. Tam My dream 5★Star GP final is Hazuki Vs. Momo but I'll settle for Maika Vs. Suzu Suzuki.
  9. OK. I'm callin' bullshit. Yuna had Megasus pinned for a four count. Worse than Montréal.
  10. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1233070/Isles_of_Sea_and_Sky/ Been eyeballin' this little sweetie-pie for a while now. New demo and name change. This game, Spidey 2 and Ys X are the upcoming games I am actually following.
  11. Yeah, what the hell were they thinkin' with that Hypertrichosis looking thing?
  12. 7.13.2023 Tomakomai: QQ VS. QQ. What a joyous match. When you got me thinking Amasaki ain't the shits yer doin' something right. Seriously great stuff. Dudes should fight more often. This show also made me fully empathize with my friends who love the Detroit Lions, Cleveland Browns and the Cubbies. Saya Iida was chopping the shit out of Tam for like a minute. That one goes in the baby book.
  13. 16 is kinda what I wanted it to be but didn't know how to ask. It's like the newer Y's games* combat and cinematography with Witcher 2 graphics and Naughty Dog presentation. Also reminds me of Bayonetta. Exploration has been lame thus far. I've only beat the wind lady am I still in the boring opening? I feel this game resonates with Y's 8, particular with that lame part with the Jack the Ripper shit. I had heard the Game of Thrones comparisons and while I think it's still hewing closer to Witcher 2 & 3 it is definitely undeniable. What is really surprising me is how much it feels like Final Fantasy 6. Like the way the music will come in while people are talking. My take on the graphics is that it runs like Witcher 2 on a shitty card. Small area one on one fights have great framerate on performance mode but if it's just you walking around and rotating the camera simultaneously chugs. Y'also get that shit where you can see distant enemies running at a lower framerate. I'll tell you it looks great but I won't tell you I don't think it wouldn't look better if it wasn't also not on PC right now. Maybe that did make sense. I bought my PS5 at swillmart 'bout a week ago. This was the game I bought. I didn't have any major hype and to be quite honest only saw that e3 trailer a couple years ago. Now I really got my ps5 for Spidey 2 but it also crossed the threshold of 5 games that make me want to buy the console.** * a series I consider "must play" in this day and age. ** new god of war, horizon and Tsushima (kinda same situation as FFXVI where I just don't want to wait for the eventual STEAM release) I've already played Tsushima up to the second area on ps4 and assume I can transfer my progress. I bought the first one digital and want to get a disc for the ps5 version. It's a 30 dollar upgrade for me digital so I'm peeping out used copies. Hell, now the only reason I'd get Ratchet and Clank is if it was a 15 dollar disc version.
  14. Who ranks higher on the Hyacinth Bucket scale: Mai Sakurai or Saori Anou? also Generational struggle 2: not as good but had better after-match setup. 0ver the top rope elimination should henceforth be referred to as the Rossy-finish. I do have a question. Was there a stream or way to watch that Kobashi show that had Team 200kg vs Minoru Suzuki and Akiyama? Follow up; I know Senjo has a massively staggered release schedule but what about Chihiro and Poi on Sunday? Will that be on stardom world? Did that Himeka thing at Wave happen?
  15. Yuna vs Hazuki: Y'know that Heaven is a place on Earth song? This is what they was talkin' about. I wanna see that as yet unnamed Maika trio challenge for the Artist belts.
  16. 6/9 Stardom: COOL VENUE. Hot crowd even though it looked like a TJPW turnout. How loud would that place be near capacity?
  17. I'm still not sure if this is Nintendo published but it's Goodfeel who've done a few projects for them. Looking like Goemon spiritual sequel. Looks like it might be Odyssey engine but this game has scant English info. Don't know if it's tied to a license that'll keep it import-only. Looks good.
  18. What's your setup going to be? Actual sitting at a desk use? Monitor or just a bigass TV? Do you have games in mind you want to run in high resolution/framerate? VR headset potential? Are you going to assemble or buy premade? Premade I have no advice. Are you going complete from scratch i.e you need a display/keyboard/mouse/gamepad? My keyboard suggestion is cheapo logitech (sub-20 bucks). Gamepad I suggest 8bitdo SN30 pro+ That is a SNES style with PSX dualshock analog and wings with R2 Triggers. I don't really like trigger shoulder buttons but you can't always avoid them. My favorite controller is Wii U pro. If you have to have 360 layout the 8bitdo Ultimate has extremely positive buzz. I also use their NES Advantage looking arcade stick. Be forewarned, if you plan to upgrade the stick the case has very shallow depth. I had to remove both weights and skive out a bit of the bottom and it still doesn't quite shut all the way. This was for a Seimitsu. Might not be an issue anymore. Mouse I have a logitech G600 and wish I had my old G5. I HATE how many thumb buttons it has. I have just used bigass TVs for my display and still see no reason to buy a monitor. My TV is Samsung UN50J5000 50-Inch I bought refurbished back in 2016 for 398 bucks. LOVE IT. No smart TV bullshit at all. Reciever is Denon AVR S740H. I was at 7.1 but my two oldest speakers crapped out and now I just have 5.1. Probably more than I need even 8+years later. My PC is my hi-fi. Plan your build around what you are actually going to play and your display's native resolution. There aren't a ton of really bleeding edge new games and probably even fewer of those you'll actually put time in on. Your rig can't always overcome a lazy port. Have a plan. At least 5 games you are really chomping at the bit to play.Some of those PS4 games were dogs and some had nice ports. Horizon was suposedly a great port but I already beat it. Days Gone is one of those sleeper games where people coming to it now are really enjoying it. Didn't play it on PS4 or PC myself. My basic advice is PCpartpicker.com Start with CPU and GPU and individual budget choices then build around what those need. It should lead you to compatible parts. People also have their buildlists to peruse. My other suggestion is get a giant case. Modular PSU and nothing but SSD hard drives 16gb minimum Ram. Have your smallest SSD as just your OS and farmer five programs. Have room for expandability but know that you probably won't make any major revisions to your PC. Do try to get all your parts at once. If you slowly piece together components you'll end up letting the budget and scope creep. Don't put much stock in rebates, they end up being a huge ballache. Nowadays I would also use an Amazon locker if possible for the really high dollar parts. If only to keep shit from getting rained on. On th' other hand don't totally dismiss ordering direct from manufacturers sites. The only brands I can think of are Samsung for the SSDs and EVGA for the GPU. I have no experience with AMD or Intel GPUs. I have no experience with NVMe. On my current build I'm using an all-in-one watercooler from Corsair. My understanding is that regular ass Coolermaster 212 fans are more than fine today. I bought a 1080ti back in 2017 and I really don't feel I need to upgrade even now. I probably need to build a new PC within a year so I will end up doing that though. I remember thinking I wanted to get a 2080 whenever Dying Light 2 was originally going to come out February '20 and all those RTX ray tracing cards were first coming out. Didn't need to do that! Older doesn't necessarily mean cheaper and more expensive doesn't necessarily mean better. There seems to be a sweet spot where really good stuff starts getting cheaper but then they get discontinued and prices blow up. Not even in reaction to a great demand either.
  19. Okay, so I'm watching the 6/10 show and I'm like "who the hell is this old guy teaming with Ogawa" Then I go look it up and he's Fujinami's son. I was open minded but guy is a schlub. Were they just fucking with this guy? Looks more like one of the true heirs to the von Wolfhausen brewery. He's makin' Ogawa look like Jim Breaks. Then I looked up Jim Breaks for the first time in a while. What the hell. Also, Kenoh VS Nakajima: These guys had 16-bit Mortal Kombat sweat. People in the front row had garbage bags on.
  20. Generational War 2: WOW (also Wow, I don't know what the fuck they're saying at the end. I was vaguely able to understand something about an elimination match and Mirai is in for Utami) 5.20 show was also a miracle on Earth. Koguma/Mariah May was like seeing the inside of Jerry Lawler's mind. Like that 3D part in Freddy's Dead. Utami was doin' some HBK selling. I would say nobody was dogging it on the show but Jessie buzzed in and crop dusted the room. The stink dissipated quickly though. That match gets an instant billion snowflakes because Ami Sohrei did the puff out her cheeks at 2.9 bridge.
  21. The Fraternal Order Of The All – Greetings From Planet Love Album blew me away. Andrew Goldman doin' a Dukes of Stratosphear deal. Heavy Beatles(Revolver), Beach Boys(Smile), Nilsson sound. Way more California than the Dukes. There's an awesome hybrid Byrds/Monkees deal. Faux Doors song that could've been on Dr Demento. King of Showbiz is a Wax song but fits in. Kind of more Donald Fagen Nitefly sounding. Some of the Synth strings don't hold up to close scrutiny but the tunage is amazeballs. I just used amazeballs and meant it. Awesome Bob Dylan impersonation. Best fake Beatle stuff I've heard since I found out about Emitt Rhodes. Check him out if you like a real specific Pre-India McCartney era. Namely Rubber Soul up to Lady Madonna area. Last album is more like post-'94 Warren Zevon. Very bitchy, very romantic. Another great in the style of studio project was LEO Alpacas Orgling. The only dude I recognize on it is Andy Sturmer from Jellyfish. AMAZING ELO ripoff record. Fucking nailed it. For New World Record through Time fans.
  22. Is there any buzz about the gameplay? Anything I look up is either old or somebody playing 2k23.
