#152 Re: The Sunset Strip » Sony Offering Refunds for CyberPunk 2077 » 307 weeks ago
So what is the back story on this?
This is the same Polish company that created The Witcher series.
Witcher 3 was one of the most beloved games of the last decade, maybe ever. Very expansive, lots to do. Multiple endings and a real labour of love, with lots of free dlcs and 2 pretty good expansions. They built up a huge amount of goodwill, basically the anti EA.
So their next project was announced post Witcher as Cyberpunk 2077. Alot were excited to see what they would get next. This was basically the most hyped game in a few years.
So it got released this month and is apparently a very buggy mess on consoles. Extremely buggy/unplayable for some. Also it's an rpg where your choices don't matter past the start of the game... very Un Witcher.
The reaction has not been great to say the least. Microsoft/Sony are offering refunds. ...And with 8 million preorders ect alone, nevermind those who bought in stores, well you can imagine how big a deal this is.
Supposedly it's not as bad on PC/Steam (no idea on Stadia).

Yeah....Pillman's death a huge tragedy.
The world will never know what it truly lost.
It's been years since reading about it but I agree...
Bischoff is full of shit. He's trying to save face.
It wasn't a work. That's what made it so unique...and it ended way too quickly. Bischoff had his head too far up Hogan and the NWO ass to comprehend how something special was being cooked up and it was time to start focusing on it.
Pillman wanted out and rightfully so.
My favorite moment of that was him referring to Kevin Sullivan as "Mr. Booker Man".
Sullivan was booking the matches/storylines at the time.
That time he flustered Heenan to cuss on TV was pretty good too.
We got such a small taste of what an Austin-Pillman feud could've been.
His death altered everything. If he lives, it takes someone else out of the equation....
The Rock
Mankind
Triple HIt also would've heightened the Mr. McMahon angle.
I gotta jump into the Pillman rabbit hole. I'll take a break from the 85-86 NWA.
I don't have much to say (well tbh can't be bothered talking about wrestling anymore), but respectfully think the Pillman thing is wrong.
Triple H married the boss's daughter within a few years.
Mankind's thing sky rocketed after that Hell in a Cell match on the show just after Pitman's death. Mankind/Taker doesn't play out differently.
As for The Rock. It's The Rock, once he turned heel after his debut it was up, up and up. I'm not comparing him to Michael Jackson, but the same idea in that it was always going to happen. He was too good. One of the biggest stars Wrestling ever had.
I'm not saying his career doesn't go anywhere, but he doesn't take any of those spots.
However I will agree that Bishoff should not be taken seriously on anything.

I prefer Bucket's solo, but it's still the chorus that's the issue. If I had skill, I'd try it with 1 or 2 verses of "I don't believe it" less.

I'm in the 99.99999998% camp that these aren't real.
I think it might be a coverband singer trying to do their own original material.

Before my time and I got him mixed up with AJPW'S Zeus, but R.I.P.

Jury is out. These have been circulating since at least last night.
I lean fake after repeated listens, but I'm not sure. This is one of the better attempts at a troll (if that's what it is).
#159 Re: The Sunset Strip » Evo's favourite movies of the 21st century so far » 309 weeks ago
Was never a fan of bladerunner ... 2049 or the original
I even rewatched the original when 2049 came out...
I have no words.
2049 for those who haven't seen it is a pretty faithful in terms of tone/filiming to the original as a sequel. It is not a commercial reboot or tribute act.
Despite being very expensive and looking gorgeous, it's not an attempt to do something new as one might expect. It's a long 3 hr, slow sci fi thriller and very comparable to the original. Critics loved it, but hardly anyone seen it.

Shocking lack of love for Blade Runner 2049.
