Yea lol I do actually always make a CAW called Angelus and I use him after I finished with The Rock but sadly this time... I'll have to make my own Peoples Champ, I still cant understand WHY The Rock isnt in the game!! Even if he is away to Hollywood he is still a central character to WWE!

The Rock is in Day of Reckoning. Maybe you might be able to win The Rock. Also Bret Hart is in Day of Reckoning!

I haven't watched WWE for a bit either but he should be back.

Also Bret Hart is in Day of Reckoning also!
Brett Hart is in S v R too!

If you look on IGN they have the Final Roster and The Rock isnt even mentioned, they do say that they are going to announce a furhter 5 WWE legends but I dunno if they would include The Rock as a legend, even though he is lol plus even if he was it would be the old version of himself not the new version!!

If I was Vamp, I'd be a little nervous after seeing Angelus paste that "choice" pic of the Rock. :p

Broomie our prayers have been answered!! I always knew God accepted "Knee Mail" lol!!
August 24, 2004 - THQ has finally answered the prayers of its fan base by exclusively confirming with IGN this afternoon that the online feature in its upcoming WWE SmackDown! vs. RAW will indeed make the final version of the game. Known to be a possibility that hinged on the results of the 4000-person beta test held by Sony Computer Entertainment earlier this month, the announcement of a definite online component is news that hopeful players have been writing us letters about for months now.


In keeping with its trend of keeping secrets this year, however, THQ has only confirmed a single online gameplay mode: Head-to-Head competition. What this means for veteran SmackDown players is that they'll be able to participate in exhibition matches with at least one other person over the Internet. Unfortunately, THQ representatives will not comment on just how many players can wrestle each other at one time. Nor will they reveal how many other (re: if?) online game modes there are, or whether or not there will be some kind of ranking system based on performance. It is also unknown whether or not it will support broadband users only, or if it will allow dial-up players to participate as well.

THQ will make the formal announcement to the rest of the gaming press later today at an official media event held in Los Angeles. There, company representatives will make the same proclamation we've made here with the possibility of elaborating further on what kind of features the new online inclusion will have. Regardless of how many modes the game ends up sporting, however, confirmation of online play alone should definitely be comforting news for doubtful wrestling fans.

Anyone planning on getting Tekken 5 when it comes out? I think I pretty much will get it almost immediately when it's released.

And from what I heard, Heihachi Mishima dies before the game starts. :evil

You can't just kill off Heihachi like that. He's been in all the other games.

IMO, he was getting a little long-in-the-tooth and he was a fairly old man by Tekken 4.

[spoiler]He gets killed by a Jack unit that self-destructs right in front of him while he and Kazuya are fighting dozens of other Jack units inside a Japanese temple, according to a trailer I saw a few months ago.[/spoiler]

I'll be giving Hwoarang a fairly good thrashing, particularly if Namco give him a few more interesting moves.

I hate Hwoarang! Yoshimitsu is the best anyway.

Yoshimitsu's not too bad, but I've had more practise with Hwoarang and I can pull off some decent combos with him. I'm a green belt in Tae Kwon-Do anyway, so I'm biased towards him for the obvious reasons. :evil

I'll tell you who I don't like playing as though... Lei Wulong! I've always found him a pain in the arse to control and fight effectively as him.

Sheesh, another Hwoarang fan. I'm already drowning in them at home. Tae Kwon-Do is no match for the bizzareness of Yoshimitsu though.

To blatantly steal a line from Jafar:

Slowpoke. :p

No, seriously - you can thank POKéMON Center New York for being able to play it now. They had a pre-release of pre-ordered copies yesterday.

Actually, Leaf Green would have been dumped too, but the guy who picked up the games to dump them had put it in the suitcase to take home to his friend, who had preordered that one - and Fire Red almost didn't get dumped either, because the laptop that should have been usde had broken, so they needed to find a Internet café where they could install the driver needed for the dumpiing hardware.

And by the way, I strongly recommend you to buy the damn game - it'll be out in Europe on October 1st.

Has anyone heard about this game Star Ocean: Till the End of Time? It's a new action RPG by Square-Enix, but I don't know anything about it. Does anyone know if it is any good?

Star Ocean is considered to be on par with Phantasy Star. It is one of the few sci-fi RPGs to be popular in America. The original was never released in the US (translation patches only) but THe Second Story was on the PS1.

I haven't really played much of the first two, but after seeing the commercials for SO3, I think I will try them again. I recall that that the first one in particular was rife with Star Trek references, jokes, and parodies. Also, the US version of the game will be based off the Director's Cut Japanese version, so you'll get all the nice tidbits. :D

Star Ocean: Till the End of Time
Downloading already my friend!

I cant believe you havnt heard of Star Ocean anathoth??

I mean I live in the UK and I've heard of it!

I'm still waiting for DeJap to release their final Star Ocean translation pack but they havnt updated in nearly a year.

I had Star Ocean 2: The Second Story on PS1 and its a really good Sci-Fi RPG the battle system is good which is real time and the story was great.

I think Star Ocean: Till The End Of Time has been out since 1999 in Japan and its only just now coming out to US but like Brainac said were getting the Directors Cut which basically only means all the bugs are fixed as the original Japanese release was riddled with bugs.

How is that Broomie??

If so it will either be a NTSC version or a Beta version as the Final PAL version is not out untill 29th October.

Plus the DVD you recieve will most likely NOT be a proper pressed DVD9 and therefore wont work without a modchip plus if it is pressed and its NTSC it wont work on a PAL PS2.

If it is true you'll have to email me some pics so I can drool! ;)
