Just wanted to share this website I found: http://isthereanydeal.com/
Good for if you're searching for a specific game, it'll tell you if there are any deals on it anywhere on the net.

I don't get to see much wrestling these days, so I don't get to see much of NXT, but every time I do see something from there, I'm nothing but impressed. That Raw Fallout was really good.
-
I thought Origins was a really good game. It's biggest flaw is that it doesn't quite measure up to Asylum and City, which was is tall order for any developer, much less for one whose only experience with the series was the WiiU port of City. The brightest spot is how much Troy Baker and Roger Craig Smith (especially Baker) make for great younger versions of Hamill and Conroy respectively.
If you ask me, as long as you love Asylum and City, Origins is worth giving a chance.
I will definitely give it a go once I'm done with City, a close friend of mine has completed all three and he said that Origins is still a good game, just not a good Arkham game in comparison, so.. Yeah, I'll still play it. I'm also a massive DC mark so I'll play anything related to DC anyway.
Speaking of the Arkham games, has anyone seen Batman: Assault on Arkham? It was released on DVD/BR recently, and is based on the video game series. I thought it was pretty good (despite, at the time, having not played any of the games
). -
Yeah the final Joker battle was weird, but both games were overall excellent. I have yet to get Arkham Origins though. Waiting for a GOTY/Complete version.
I bought all three as part of a Steam bundle sale in the summer, I think it was like £7-10 for all three. I've not heard many good things about Origins, though?
-
I loved Asylum, but hated the final Joker battle. I thought it was lame. City is a much more fun experience all around.
I wouldn't say I hated the final battle, but it would have been nice if it was more a battle of wits with the Joker at the end, instead of what there was. Definitely glad I took the time to play this game, I don't get nearly as much time to play games these days.
-
I know I'm a bit late to the party, but I finished Batman: Arkham Asylum last night. I started Arkham City straight after, and my friends have told me it's a much better game than Asylum, so I'm looking forward to getting through this one too, since I loved Asylum.
-
I don't get what the big deal is about Henry saying that Lana looks like an escort? Since when was professional wrestling politically correct? I've seen and heard women being treated far worse in other forms of entertainment, why is this any different? Mark Henry, I'm sure, didn't mean it, he's just following a script - much like any form of television show or movie.

You gotta laugh at some of the PC pricing these days..
Purchased Sims 4 today (to review for a site I work at). Origin want me to spend £59.99 ($97.88) to purchase this, as does the Sims official site.
5 minutes of looking around on the internet and I found it for £25.99 ($48.40)
Hmmmmm. I wonder which one I would buy?
In my favourites bar on Chrome I have a folder called "Video Games" that has about 15-20 web stores in it, including Steam, Origin, etc. and when I want to buy a game I mass open them all, and one by one copy and paste the title of the game into their searches, keeping the cheapest one open, and closing anything that is higher. Takes a few minutes but I've saved so much money doing it this way. I think when I bought Wach Dogs I ended up saying about £20 off the Steam price, and that was on release.

Nope. Consoles like the current generation (360/ps3) are way too powerful to be emulated on the new generation. You need a lot more cpu speed to accomplish that, so it will never happen (though it might in the distant future). For the old games (until ps2) we have emulators on windows, but I'm afraid it will stop there. From now on - if we want to play all of our games - we'll need to keep the consoles and prey they'll continue to function.
This is why I never sell/trade in a console. In my loft I must have over a dozen consoles/handhelds that aren't used, but I know the day I get rid of one will be the day that I want to play a particular game on it... and I won't be able too.
-
If you're looking for something a little less serious, Loadout is well worth a look.
Cheers. I'll check that out too.
-
Sweet, thanks. I'll set it to download later tonight before I go to bed

Is there any shooter (first or third person) games that are free to play that anyone would recommend for PC? I'm just looking for something that I can pick up and play as and when I have time or in between playing other games, really.
You know, when I just need to spend 30 mins kicking someone's ass (or more likely getting my own ass kicked)!

After reading the comments here it seems I may be in the minority in that I didnt enjoy Brock vs Cena.
I love MMA, I love wrestling. I love one sided MMA fights. It's something you know you're getting yourself into when you buy an event. If it was a UFC event last night and Lesnar done 16 German suplexes I'd be marking out that he could do that to someone in a legit battle.
But this is professional wrestling. I don't buy an event to see an extremely one sided main event. I buy to be entertained. And sixteen German suplexes isn't entertaining in professional wrestling.
I get what they are trying to do, it's the whole "Lesnar still has the MMA mentality", but come on. I want to see professional wrestling when I buy WWE events, not faux MMA combat.
Anyway...
Other than that, it was a top event. Thoroughly enjoyed the Ambrose / Rollins match.
-
I truly am amazed at how easily Cena wins a crowd over. Will he finally turn heel? Of course not, but why the sudden change in character... His whole thing with Bray was to not do exactly what he said he was going to do this time. Interesting or is it just writers not paying attention to their own writing?
I liked his segment. I don't like the whole "every week I come out here..." shtick he seems to do every time he has a mic, but other than that, it was a good segment. I think the difference between this and Bray was that Bray wanted to bring that side of Cena out of him, where as against Brock, Cena needs to bring that side out of himself (hope that makes sense). In the feud with Bray it was about Cena not letting Bray win by letting him bring that side of his character out, but Cena needs to show that side to stand a chance against Brock. In a way it kind of makes sense.
-
Rollins vs Ambrose - 2 unoffical street fights instead a match. Stone Cold Dean Ambrose! Teasing a (fingers crossed) No DQ match at SummerSlam is best way to play this hot feud... if the fans are willing to be patient.
Funny you call him that, the last few weeks I've been thinking he reminds me of a cross between the early Stone Cold character and Brian Pillman's "Loose Cannon" character.

Just come across this Randy Savage statue made by Todd McFarlne Toys. It's going to retail at $295, but it is a beautiful piece of work. For the full article and full size pictures, click here.

Isn't Main Event a Network-only show? It not being on TV would explain that the wrestlers have more liberties on Network shows than they do on Raw and Smackdown.
The show is live, so it's not a matter of her getting away with it, as much as it is that there was nothing production could do about it.

It's not that Cena's fans are more passionate or anything, it's that the attacks are so constant that you see people jump to his defence more.</p><p> </p><p> I remember being on forums in the late 1990's like the AOL ones and it was the same thing being said about The Rock with a lot of people jumping to his defence.

Even if the end decision is Vince's there no denying Cena's decision are taken into account.</div></blockquote><p> Of course they are, he's the WWE's biggest star. And the same was done with Austin, Rock, Austin, Savage, Hart, HBK, HHH... These are all the heroes to the same people that despise Cena for the things that he does, which these same people done themselves. This is my point. This is what I have been trying to say, Cena is doing nothing new, protecting his spot. Austin did it, Rock did it, Savage did it, Hogan did it, HBK did it, the list goes on.</p>

The same process happens for every match, the agent gets with the wrestlers, they go over the match, plan the finish, it goes back to creative. Or, at least, that's how I've heard it goes by the way some of the workers talk about it. It doesn't mean that he books his own storylines, it means that he gets a say in his matches - as do most other workers. It's the same process for everyone. At the end of the day it still would have been Vince McMahons decision to say yes or no, not Cena.</p>
