datboi81 However, I will say, it is wild to be how slowly it has taken American wrestling games to progress after they seemed to hit a peak during the N64 AKI/Asmik days.

I just find that to be wild man.

Sure, HCTP was solid and SD2, but damn they are so far behind the Japanese Counterparts.

It’s crazy that Fire Pro follows a simple formula, yet still the best wrestling game to come out in the States since their last game in 2006.

SvR 2006 was the last true good American game I played. I haven’t bought one since 2010.

Which Castlevania was y'alls favorite?

My favorite has always been Castlevania 3 for the NES. However, I’m tempted to say the PS1 version is dope too.


Picked up Dark Summit for the PS2.
Cost? Free. I’m never turning down that price.

For me it ended with the AKI/Asmik games on the N64. I did have all the Yukes! games for the GameCube but they weren't as enjoyable as the N64 games.

Makes you wonder if WWF/E actually had a video game department back then that saw how good the WCW AKI/Asmik games were and pursued them or it was sheer luck with THQ getting the WWF license and assigning game development to AKI instead of Yukes!.

Looks fake though. Homie's forearm proportions look 'stretched' to fit that ugly joint.

I’m thinking it’s just his forearm resting on he armrest of the chair. Making it look bulkier than he really is.

Bros, is eBay or Craigslist the best route to look for a Dreamcast?

I would say so. EBay especially.

Also, try OfferUp.

Try local to you via Craigslist or Kijiji if possible as you could negotiate and get a good deal. There's a slight premium going the eBay route but you'll be able to get a nicer looking console.
