1) Where's my money man *********************** "Are we rich yet?"
Such is the greeting I usually get from crew these days as we all anxiously await the arrival of our remaining Uprising funds. Can't say I blame them, I'm thinking the exact same question every time I see the mail man (letter carrier...sorry) walk up to my house. We know we're getting our tax credit but we don't know the exact figure yet. The payment is in "processing" where the government decides exactly how much of our money they are going to keep for themselves before blessing us with the rest. Will they leave us with enough to pimp out Uprising before release or just enough to ship it as is? Dunno yet. All we know is that no phone call from the feds yet is good news as it means they are disputing nothing about our claim and have no major need to withhold great chunks of cash. Knock on wood. In the meantime I've been making worst and best case scenario launch plans. Suffice it to say that we've at least learned our lessons in the past and we won't be tempted to upgrade to a newer graphics engine or anything insane regardless of how much cash we get to play with.
Although, I did have a dream last night that I was playing Uprising but the entire King of Colosseum 2 roster was in it. And I was playing from the crowd. Like, I was literally in the game sitting in the crowd with a controller. A PS3 controller. Huh.
2) Box art exposed! ********************** The box art for the new Smackdown vs. Raw 2010 has been revealed. Bask in its awesomeness:
3) Classic wrestling game now free ********************** Like booking matches? Like wrestling sims? Well booking sims don't get much better than Adam Ryland's series' of games and now he's offering Total Extreme Wrestling 2005 for free download!
4) Midget Wrestling banned?! ********************** I honestly never knew the word 'midget' was derogatory. I certainly never meant it that way. So if these people are successful in getting the word banned in all media does that mean we'll be social outcasts for still enjoying midget wrestling?
5) Fire Pro camera hack ******************* I've heard about this I didn't see the pics until Dave (so many Dave's...) pointed it out to me. So cool! There is a Gameshark code that gives you a totally new camera angle for Fire Pro D. Big thanks to Orochigeese at Fire Pro Club for posting pics:
