I just don't get the Juggalo thing. The concept of making a life choice and having it revolve completely around a rap duo (that isn't even good, but I won't get into that) and treating it like some cult thing. Only wearing ICP stuff, or seemingly only listening to ICP and artists on the Psychopath Records label. And lets face it, the gatherings seem to routinely turn ugly when the mob decides they don't like someone. I'm not a Tila Tequila fan, but assaulting her the way they did is inexcusible. Hell, ever see the Youtube video of the guy bragging about being part of the mob? You could damn near smell the meth on him as he described how if the cops didn't show up, they would have killed her.

Hmmm... it's hard to say. Sucky guys like Vincent, Stevie Ray, the rest of the nWo b-team could be done without... but for guys like Buff Bagwell and Scott Steiner, it breathed new life into their careers.

No wrestling game has ever made me as god damn angry as TNA Impact. I wanted to like it, but **** that game and whoever decided it'd be cool to make everything counterable, including counters. You get so damn excited when you manage to counter a move, then the computer will just counter your counter. That's when controllers get thrown and a stupid game goes right back to Gamefly.

I could do without the weird sing talking he does at concerts, but yeah... he's really under-rated as a singer. Speaking of KISS though.. how under-rated of a musician is Ace though? You can say at it's core it's Gene and Paul's band, but KISS w/ Ace is just another level. Absolutely. Ace may not be as technically proficient as an Eddie Van Halen, but he works for the music that KISS did. His work may not blow any minds, but he absolutely worked for that pure, dirty rock and roll sound that those early KISS records have Which is kinda funny you mention Eddie. Gene loves to talk about how he discovered Van Halen and all that... but according to DLR, the only reason Gene showed interest is because he was trying to get Eddie to join KISS and replace Ace, who they'd been wanting to fire. How weird would the world be if Eddie Van Halen joined KISS?

I've always kinda thought Cali should split, living in San Diego. So. Cal and Nor.Cal are practically two different states as it is. Although I'd vote for So. Cal to just Stay "California" and Nor. Cal be "North California" since when people think of Cali, they always think of So. Cal anyway.

Why the f*** not?! That sounds awesome! Sure does! Okay, what about Def Jam: Icon? Rappers as fighters. Worked there. Why not wrestlers? Man, beat me to it. Was gonna say one of the most fun games from last gen featured rappers as pro wrestlers.... and even used the AKI engine. If that can be done, and not come off as totally retarded, anything is possible.

This will be unpopular... but the Prince of Persia reboot that got crapped on by fans of the Sands of Time trilogy. I'm really enjoying it, dunno why all the hate.

I know it's the wrong hero, but he HAS to have the Queen song for the theme Came in here to post that. I love Queen and all... but a song written for that cheesy Flash Gordon movie? Pass. As far as a Flash movie... I dunno. It'd be a metric **** ton of bullet time stuff. It'd just get old.

For the first time in god knows how long, I have no damn clue what's going to happen. Vince isn't stupid... he saw the tides turning w/ Austin getting over in 1996 and hitched his wagon.. and the entire direction of the company to him and made boat loads of cash. He was there, in the arena, hearing the crowd chanting for CM Punk.. the supposed heel in this storyline LOUDLY. If there is any sense left in him, he'd see what's going on and realize he has lightning in a bottle, and has to capitalize on it. This is an nWo/Attitude era level moment building up. Something that makes a huge shift in the industry if done right. Please don't **** it up. I like Cena and all, but it's pretty clear that his run as THE guy may be almost done. Fans want a breath of fresh air. Like someone said before, it has shades of Austin/Hart. You have the anti-hero gaining momentum for being REAL, and the goody two shoes guy not being able to cope. A double turn would do monster business here. Hell, if Punk does have to leave, if only to rest... I can't believe I'm saying this, but a screwjob finish could actually be good for once. If they are too pussy to turn Cena, can put the heat on McMahon, John retains angrily, and Punk gets the sympathy face heat for when he returns. There are so many ways they can go, and if it just ends with "ha ha, Cena wins" it may actually hurt ratings. Fans seem to want something unexpected to happen, not the status quo.

See the thing of it is people 30+ grew up with gaming as their primary form of entertainment throughout their lives. Folks might as well say people over 30 should just give up watching TV or movies as well, it's the same thing. Exactly, I turned 31 today, as a matter of fact... and grew up with the industry really. The fact is there is a huge market for games aimed at adults now... hence all the M rated games. Developers know that kids in the 80's and 90's are the adults now, and still market to them. I don't see what the difference between having gaming as a hobby that you do on your spare time and fishing, etc is. If you are working and taking care of your other life aspects, popping in Mass Effect isn't some sign of immaturity.

Are there any water levels in todays gaming world? I mean I'd love or be amused to see the Gears of War guys, Left 4 Dead Quartet or Batman have to swim through a water level. --- I'd like to suggest that damn well in Oblivion with the ring of eternal heavyness, but not really convinced its a water level, lol. I think water levels are being phased out in favor of stealth sections in games where it doesn't fit and escort missions as ways of breaking game flow and pissing gamers off.

Back on the whole race thing... one thing I do wonder.. why would someone want to eat somewhere they weren't welcome anyway? I'd be ok with not going to the place just because I wouldn't want to give a racist my money.
