WTF? Mitsuhara Misawa passed away after a Back Suplex in a match. They're saying it was a heart attack. |

| Mir Injures Himself to avoid a beating at the hands of Brock Lesnar |
[Mar. 6th, 2009|06:27 pm] |
Oliver Copp , of TNM wrestling simulator fame and UFC German Commentator is has reported, that the Mir/Lesnar fight in May is probably off due to Frank Mir injuring himself. Boo! I was looking foward to that fight.
Interesting tidbit on Oliver Copp and TNM though. The entire reason TNM was ever created was because Jim Cornette told Oliver that he could not see himself spending more than 5 minutes in front of a computer. So Oliver made a bet with Jim that he could find something to keep him in front of a computer for more than 5 minutes. Oliver ended up making the TNM Wrestling Simulator, and won the bet with Jim Cornette, who apparently spent hours with that game. |

There is a WWF Superstars Arcade Cabinet of Criagslist for free! But where would I put the thing, and I doubt it would fit in the Elantra. So tempting..... |

I just added 5 people as totally random people on Myspace as friends, and I have zero idea how they found me. I have no mutual friends with them, unlike the girls that found me through Matt Hardy. They are from various parts of the county. I just found it odd really. I found if my profile popped up on the front page of MySpace or something. And they are actually human beings too, not pornbots either. Since somehow I've became rather popular, I'd just like to know why.
Edit: Since posting this I receive 4 more friend request from random people, this is just getting wacky. |

Brock Lesnar tko'ed Randy Couture to win the UFC Heavyweight, and the MMA Message Boards are having a fit, and I think at any moment may bring out the razors and start cutting themselves to numb the pain. It puts a smile on my face. :) |

I just read today, Wizkids Games, makers of Heroclix, is ceasing operations. Not to to surprising really. I haven't played Heroclix in probably 6 months, and I know I quite a few former players as well. As the game evolved, it lost it's appeal as a wacky little game to have fun with on the weekends. Once it hit the point where going to a venue to play felt like worked I stopped playing and never looked back. It's kinda sad, since the game did bring me a lot of enjoyment, but I kinda saw it coming. I'm sure Heroclix will exist in some format, it was Wizkids one profitable brand. It will probably be sold off to someone else. As for the rest of Wizkids games, they my just disappear into the ether. It kinda does explain the depressed Heroclix prices in the after market, though. I've been selling off some of my Clix since they are just collecting dust, and I've notice the after market prices I drops a lot in the past month or so.
Anyways, Wizkids, it was a pleasure playing your games, and may they live on even though, your no longer with us.
Dear God, I just eulogized a Gaming Company...I'm such a dork. What's next, me reminiscing about Data East, the no longer with us, the makers of the awesome WWF Royal Rumble Pinball Game? |

| The War is Over |
[Nov. 2nd, 2008|11:38 pm] |

The war is over, the evil Xbox 360 is victorious. I've dropped $85 on this thing and it still doesn't work. The tinkering is not fun anymore and I have no desire to work on it. I've wasted too much time in on this endeavor. Today was my first day off, between work and wrestling, in 3 weeks, and I spent it working on a stupid 360. I'm putting it up on ebay now and hoping I can make some of my money back. |

| Grrrr..... |

My Xbox 360 is fuck up now. I had it all working good, replaced the DVD with a new one and all was well. $75 plus a little time and it was working great. Then today I play it with it a bit, tested a few things then, the screen distorts. I shut it off and turn it back on, E74 error. FUCK! This seems to be some mythical error, noone was quite figured out, but most say the X-Clamp Fix tends to fix it. Well apparently the parts for said fix are nigh impossible to come by. Why the hell are 1mm thick washers so hard to find? Anyways, I'm annoyed greatly, and about ready to say fuck this whole experiment and sell it on eBay. Hell I got a free 512 memory card from Microsoft, so I should actually be able to sell everything and break even or turn a profit.
I'm greatly annoyed right now, having spent so much time on this thing. Why the fuck Microsoft thought the X-Clamps would make for a good cooling solution is beyond me. Fucking shitty ass design.GRRRRR!
EDIT: Matt-2 Xbox 360-0
I pulled up a different version of the X-Clamp fix, and this time Home Depot did have the parts. So I X-Clamped my 360 and it's now working. Yay! Now the question is for how long? Now the cost of this Xbox is $85 after buying some thermal paste and various screws and washers at Home Depot. Not a bad price for a 360. I pity anyone who bought one at launch for retail price, because there are thermal flaws like all get out, in it.
Edit: Matt-1 Xbox-360-1
Yeah I managed to get it working, but it can only manage a few minutes before the dashboard starts glitching. And when I shut it down and restart after the glitch it's E74 again. Son of a bitch. I'm extremely close to ebaying the piece of crap. I just need to delete my xbox live info, on the memory card. |
