The problem was that Glacier and Mortis debuts not long after the NWO was formed, so you had these Mortal Kombat looking fuckers running around the midcard while the main event was all about getting "real" and breaking kayfabe. Glacier's gimmick also cost the company a poo poo ton of money, production costs for Glacier's entrance amounted to nearly half a million dollars and his costume itself was about $35,000. They spend so much loving money on a midcarder with a Mortal Kombat gimmick that went nowhere. It's pretty much WCW in a nutshell. Rhonne fucked around with this message at 02:39 on Jan 7, 2015 |

Hahaha, Metallica's St. Anger is the first legitimate CD Pat ever bought and it made him hate music. Now it all makes sense. I hated it when it first came out but it's grown on me in the past couple years. Edit: Weird Al's Bad Hair Day was one of the first CDs I bought too. I was in 8th grade. Edit #2: I knew Liam knew about BabyMetal. Charles Martel fucked around with this message at 05:37 on Jan 7, 2015 |

Oh man, my first CD was St. Anger as well. "Whoa, sick album cover, and Metallica's a good band, right?"

Yea basically only WCW could think, at a time when the main storyline is 'let's break the walls down guys, let's make poo poo real' it was ALSO a good idea to just dump buckets of money into stealing Mortal Kombat poo poo for the lower tier douchebags.

Why do modern wrestlers not have gimmicks? I don't get it, John Cena is just a guy who is nice and wholesome and was in a movie about a Marine once. Serious question: Would it at all be worth trying to get into wrestling if i never liked it as a small child? From what I gather from osmosis (95% of which is from the Zaibatsu) it seems like a fun, stupid ride. But I could imagine it might only be truly enjoyable for people who used to believe it was really about zamboni-driving zombies and mentally retarded Amish people fighting each other for the custody of children.

If it's the WWE, absolutely not. I enjoyed wrestling as a kid, but gave up on it completely around 2002-2003 when the "Attitude" era came to a close and Vince and Co. mopped up all of their competition. If you want to know what happens to a man as he keeps watching regardless of WWE programming getting progressively worse and worse, watch this.

Karate Master 2 really reminds me of both Karate Champ... ...and International Karate +... ...but with the crazy simulation poo poo on top. It's actually kind of interesting, and it looks a hell of a lot better than the developer's other... games?

Liquid Dinosaur posted:Why do modern wrestlers not have gimmicks? I don't get it, John Cena is just a guy who is nice and wholesome and was in a movie about a Marine once. Okay, gonna try and answer both quickly: 1 - They do, it's just that main-eventers haven't been much about gimmicks since the Attitude Era, they're usually reserved for jobbers, midcarders and tag-teams. Closest we got right now in the main-event scene is Bray Wyatt, a bayou cult leader. 2 - No. Long answer: it depends. I got into wrestling recently too, and lucked out because it was a mini WWE "revival" with a lot of cool wrestlers with compelling angles. However, the main WWE programming is garbage right now, and WWE as a whole tends to gently caress up anything good they got going. Following WWE is suffering, disappointment and embarassment 90% of the time. However, there are other options. NXT is the developmental fed for WWE but somehow it's a better product and less prone to shooting themselves in the foot. Lucha Underground is a weird mix between serialized TV show and wrestling show, with a lot of lucha influence. If you're not much for silly gimmicks and story archs, New Japan has been fantastic with some of the best pure wrestling around. If you are, watch CHIKARA - it's a living wrestling comic book. If you just wanna see people do insane stunts, PWG (Pro Wrestling Guerilla) does matches where dudes just try to top each other for 20min. But the main thing is you gotta be able to handle a lot of plot stupidity and buy that a backwards belly flop is a deadly move because it is shut up.

I'm glad the guys are gonna go back for the actual ending because yeesh. Although it is nice that the bad end is just the game literally going "HAHA gently caress YOU" as Joshua laughs like a maniac.

They need to do a commentary with their girlfriends/wives/bodypillows or something because it seems like all of them just got women who are the lady versions of them but less stupid, and that's basically everyone's relationship goal I think. Also I need a video of Pat going to every aquarium and explaining what is and isn't fish.

I have 3 things to say about that Pat video. 1) What do gingers have some sort of magnetic pull towards one another? B) Pat schlubbingly standing in front of the Universal sign while music plays is loving hilarious. & IV) I hope to one day grow up to be as cool as Japanese Dennis Hopper from Waterworld.

That seal is the most thing ever. Also, I loved the "Hi....this is bullshit. This little railway...THING??" part. Cute girlfriend, too. They sound like they get along well. My girlfriend throwing her top off at me always makes me more motivated to do something as well.

Seriously, this is getting ridiculous. It's already crazy enough that all 4 Zaibatsu members are cool and funny people, throw in the 3 radical significant others we've seen so far and we've got the makings of a supergroup. Also seconding the Japanese Waterworld hype; I was lucky enough to miss the movie and from now on I'll just pretend that the theme park version is the only one.
