But you know what?

LIFE is hokey.

That advert really is awful. Makes me cringe every time.

I can't believe, i single handedly threw away the tag competition last night by changing my prediction in the mvp & swagger match and then forgetting to change to a kane & Rey victory respectively.

Fair play to Zellery though as he has consistantly done well throughout the competition and deserved to win. I just feel that i have let cora/deadpool down :cry:

Overall though i enjoyed SS and liked the cena/orton match. I'm also looking forward to raw/sd this week to see the fallout. It's alo nice to see a good fued forming with regal & christian in ecw.


Trust me it wasn't just you. Ben wasn't even sure on his own predictions and even argued with me what they were when I was staring straight at them. Shambles.

Got round to watching SS, i felt way too tired at 1 last night so went bed but thankfully streams have it replaying throughout the day, my thoughts..

Dolph vs Rey was just awesome from start to finish, love watching Ziggler's matches he is an amazing heel.

Swagger vs MVP was a let down, shouldn't have been on the show if that was the only match they could have put on.

Jericho/Show vs Cryme Tyme, alright match but a good ending, and Jerishow's new music is quite good.

DX vs Legacy, very happy they completely did not bury Legacy. Good match overall.

Orton vs Cena, strange one considering it is 4-0 to Orton in the end. :lol:

Punk vs Hardy, good match and what a Swanton Bomb to end Jeff's career for the time being.

And Undertakers return was brilliant as it was a really good idea and it came off looking very good.

I'll be doing the scores after I've had a nap kip. I'm scrapping the DQ question all together. No shouldn't have been an answer.

Do not like new camera angles at all
No HUD ftw though, I'm still loving the TNA game, Lack of Moves , Short Entrances but oh well, I'd rather wrestle with AJ and Joe then Cena or Batista

Having the health bars under the wrestlers looks ridiculous, & the commentary is outdated (how many more years are they going to keep the same phrases in the game?). JR & Tazz? Tazz hasn't been in the WWE for 5 months (7 by the time the game is released).

I do like the new swirling camera though.

Christ the movement animation doesn't look like it has moved on much since the PS1 days.

Even the crowd signs are the same. :fp:

This is the trouble with THQ - instead of updating the core gameplay, they just keep slapping more modes in there. These, of course, look great on the back of the box.

I thought I'd gone for Orton. I meant to go for Orton. Clearly, I wanted to pick Orton. Can we just say that my prediction was an Orton prediction? :fp:

I wonder if the legendary commentary from Michael Cole is going to be in the game

"NOT THIS WAY"
"THE WWE UNIVERSE"
"THE VIPER"
