Johnny & Slip were actually playing SvR09 on stream recently, seems like it was a massive pile of poo poo. Of course it was just the tag story that they played which is pretty trite but it still seemed pretty loving lame.

I like it better than the Triple H one, at least, which is about him being the coolest and best guy ever, so cool that Evolution tries to reform and Shawn wants him back for DX and everybody is fighting over who gets to be his friend.

Wasn't 2009 also the game that had the "Triple H must not be shown in vulnerable or compromising positions" thing for reviews? Can't have him looking weak when his storyline is all about him being the Asskicker, you know. Also, the stable with Finlay, Santino and the Boogeyman in that zombie storyline was apparently called "New School". Who the hell wrote these things?

Yup,I kinda hope that this order came from Trips just being unable to comprehend that looking weak in a screenshot doesn't mean that it's going to happen in real life.

Xerzes posted:No, 09 where Undertaker turns Santino or Finlay(your choice) into a zombie, then the zombie has a match with Rey Mysterio(which, weirdly, they'll probably win if you don't intervene), in which you can take control over them with "magic", which makes them stop and stand in place for a bit, or "super magic" which makes them stop and punch themselves. This gave you the wonderful context action button prompt of "Do Magic" and "Do Super Magic". Literally press X to magic. This is how the Undertaker's powers work.

Really what the series needs at this point (besides the total overhaul) is the silly poo poo they used to put in the games. I need SYM style rag doll bouncing off crazy bumps and throw in some WM19 backstage poo poo too. WWE games ruled when they were dumb as hell.

I remember liking SVR09, the CAW leveling system was trash but it didn't play too badly, it looked good, the AI didn't stand still, it had the two reversal buttons so the online gameplay was a little more than sprinting around and using the four or five moves with weird timing windows. These games have had huge problems for a decade plus though, I think "the one you like" is usually just "the one you bought when you were in the mood to deal with the bullshit," "the one you bought after not touching the series for five years" etc

Had a feeling this was the case, probably so they could put the PS4 port out in a state that was as complete as possible and possibly including the management mode

The PS4 version is also launching with the NJPW stuff and story mode, isn't it? So they probably had to focus on that.

Yeah plus in Japan, in particular, console gaming is just plain much bigger than PC gaming and so getting the game on the PS4, with NJPW content, will help their sales.

This might be the best piece of HHH lore there is. It's so inconsequential, it's hilarious that it was a directive that HHH thought of and actually got enforced and everyone found out about it.

2018 August 9 Best of the Super Juniors tour is sponsored by Fire Pro Wrestling Returns, and these signs (the large black one says "Sorry to keep you waiting" 待たせたな) were on NJPW's Japanese twitter earlier this evening. One of which is a poster with the above date. Whether that's Japan only or worldwide for the release date, we shall see. https://twitter.com/njpw1972/status/997412309239611392

More Fire Pro World stuff: - On PS4, there will be a "digital deluxe version" that includes three pieces of new DLC beyond what has already been announced for PC; asking price is 10,584 JPY + tax; so more or less 100 USD + tax. The season pass itself will be on sale for about 50 bucks as well. - There's also a limited edition physical box set for the same price which comes with miniature figures of Tanahashi, Kenny Omega, Okada, and Naito in the style of those old MUSCLE figurines from the 80s. It also has a special guide book for looking up the stats of the New Japan roster, plus a LIJ-themed Fire Pro t-shirt and towel. - NJPW DLC for PC is coming out in August along with the PS4 port's release. - There are apparently 50 NJPW wrestlers overall, with 39 fully voiced thus far; all with about 80 different voice clips - the NJPW wrestler voices can be assigned to your own edits, and with the new voices comes an added 3 voice clip slots for edits - Unlike the edit of Takayama released for charity a few months back, the NJPW roster can be copied into an edit wrestler slot so you can customize them as you like, to keep them kept up to date; or simply because you feel like playing favorites

Does anyone happen to know if Steam's cloud save feature would back up your wrestler edits in Fire Pro? I'm about to reinstall Windows and I gotta make sure I'm not losing those. Guess I'll copy the game folder to a flash drive so I'm safe either way.

You could also always just publish them (privately, if you want) to the workshop, then redownload them in case they don't save.

Anyway it turns out this install didn't even touch my files, ha. Not sure if Steam just read my original save or actually did a cloud thing, but everything was there when I reinstalled the game and ran it just now!

This is what makes Wrestling isn’t wrestling so satisfying to me, even if it is a flawed work from a lovely artist. It’s flatters Triple H the Actor while smashing Triple H the character, and I cannot help but wonder how this played out in the head of a wrestler who, by all accounts, takes himself way more seriously than he would like to let on.

To be honest, I don't know if there needs to be "another Fire Pro" after this. Just put World on a "games as service" esque model and keep porting it to everything and releasing content for it and I'll be happy as hell.
