WWE Network Review: Bunkhouse Stampede 1988
I was a hardcore WWF fan as a kid and as a result I have absolutely no knowledge of NWA/WCW events before the start of WCW Monday Nitro. So, thanks to the WWE Network, let's see what the heck was going on in Bunkhouse Stampede '88.
January 24, 1988 from the Nassau Coliseum in New York, it's the NWA Presents The 3rd Annual Bunkhouse Stampede Finals. Your commentators are Bob Caudle and good ol' Jim Ross, both in tuxedos.
Your ring announcer is Tony Schiavone, also in a tux, but with a sweet mullet and 'stache.
Beautiful Bobby Eaton (with Jim Cornette) vs. Nikita Koloff (champ) for the NWA World Television Title
- The Soviet is the face in this match? WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING?! UP IS DOWN! BLACK IS WHITE!
- Sorry. Like I said, I don't have any knowledge of this era.
- Eaton and Cornette draw heat from the crowd by hugging before the match. Hugs! Take that, New York!
- Beautiful Bobby? More like Beautiful Blobby, am I right? Heh, see because, he's kinda pudgy here…
- Schiavone announces to the crowd the match's elapsed time.
- You can hear Cornette yelling at everyone very clearly throughout the match, which is fun. The crowd eats it up, even starting a "Cornette sucks!" chant on several occasions.
- Time limit draw, which is a shitty way to end a match, but it was entertaining for an old-school bout. Champ retains the title.
- Hijinks afterwards as Bobby Eaton and his tag partner Sweet Stan Lane beat down Koloff with Cornette's fuzzy tennis racket.
The Future Living Legend Larry Zybszko (with Baby Doll) vs. Barry Windham (champ) for the Western States Heritage Championship
- Territorial titles. Kinda miss that.
- Man, imagine "stereotypical 1980s New Yorker". The crowd is all that guy.
- Zybszko is a great whiny heel, and gets pissed off when he gets bested in an exchange of moves. Very entertaining to watch him here.
- Windham uses the ring post as a weapon against Zybszko's junk, and people in Michigan sweatshirts in the crowd lose their minds.
- Ref bump, shenanigans, Windham gets hit with Baby Doll's high heel shoe. Pinfall. New champ.
The video goes wonky and abruptly we cut to Ric Flair vs. Road Warrior Hawk already in progress for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship
- A WWE Network graphic reads "Presented in the most complete form possible, due to original production technical difficulties.
- An interesting dilemma. So there's a problem with the master tape? Could they not find a first generation copy out there somewhere and edit in the missing footage? That would make that disclaimer more relevant. Or does that footage just not exist at all?
- J.J. Dillon is at ringside.
- Flair hits a low blow, and JR says "That's what you call graspin'." Is Dusty suddenly feeding JR lines?
- Flair hits another low blow about five minutes later. The N64 wrestling games spoiled me a bit because I always expect to hear a little "ding!" sound when this happens.
- Flair goes for the figure four way too early in the match. There's an hour time limit, 'Naitch. Hawk reverses it.
- Flair goes up to the top rope and gets caught by Hawk. Jesus, this move didn't work all the way back in 1988 either? Did he ever hit a move from the top rope successfully?
- Ref bump. Surprisingly this does not lead to shenanigans as the two just continue to wrestle. Flair is bleeding however.
- Finally some shenanigans! Hawk hits a superplex and goes for the pin. Dillon comes in and very gently taps Hawk with a padded chair. Hawk goes after Dillon and Flair grabs the chair. Again, a gentle tap of the chair and the ref suddenly crawls in the ring for a two count.
- Hawk is no-selling everything at this point.
- Flair goes for a third chair shot, but the ref is right there this time and calls for the bell. Hawk wins by DQ, Flair keeps the belt.
As a cage is constructed around the ring, the credits are rolled. Wanna make sure they get shown, I guess.
The Bunkhouse Stampede
- To be eliminated you have to be thrown over the top of the cage. Hmm, good luck with that. So a reverse cage match/super battle royal?
- You can also be eliminated by being thrown through the cage door.
- The announcers are super confused right now as to what to talk about while the cage is built.
- The participants are Dusty Rhodes, Arn Anderson, Tully Blanchard, Ivan Koloff, The Warlord, Lex Luger, The Barbarian, and Road Warrior Animal
- The Warlord is wearing a lifeguard t-shirt. Stark contrast to, you know, being some kind of Nordic Warrior.
- All the guys are wearing some kind of casual clothes actually. Weird.
- Bell rings and… chaos.
- Ivan Koloff is busted open.
- Road Warrior Animal is also bleeding. The Barbarian is sucking the blood out of his forehead. Gross.
- Dusty gets a belt and starts beating the hell out of everyone. Crowd goes nuts.
- Pretty sure everyone is bleeding profusely at this point. The Michigan people are now concerned.
- Ivan Koloff is the first to be eliminated, over the top of the cage. Warlord and Animal go next.
- Barbarian is now sucking blood out of Dusty Rhodes' arm. The hell is the deal with this guy? Don't do that.
- Luger, Anderson and Blanchard all go out together.
- Hey, one of the Hebners is a referee. What the… (Wikipedia says it's Earl Hebner).
- Dusty wins after sending Barbarian over the top of the cage with his super powerful elbow.
I don't know if this is considered a good show or not, but as my first experience with this era of NWA/WCW it was pretty entertaining.
WWE Network Review: Wrestlemania IV
Wrestlemania IV from Trump Plaza in Atlantic City, New Jersey featuring the tournament to crown a new World Heavyweight Champion. As I recall from childhood, this event was so long that it was a two VHS tape release. Gladys Knight sings America the Beautiful while wearing a jacket with enough ads on it to make a NASCAR jealous. YEAH, AMERICA!
Gorilla Monsoon and Jesse Ventura on commentary, Bob Uecker shows up to call the first match with them.
20 Man Battle Royale
- This is basically everyone on the roster who has nothing else to do at Wrestlemania, and you can tell they really don't care.
- George the Animal Steele is a participant but never gets in the ring. He pulls Jim Neidhart out, which counts for some reason.
- Two heels, Bad News Brown and Bret Hart are the final two participants, which is unique. Bad News Brown is the winner after double-crossing Bret, but Bret comes in and smashes Brown's trophy. Crowd doesn't care.
- Uecker leaves to find Vanna White.
Robin Leach reads a proclamation about the Championship Tournament
- He ends his nonsense by saying "I'm Robin Leach and I do know why." which I believe it a shot at Dana Carvey's Saturday Night Live impression, but he could care less when he says it and no one in the crowd seems to care either, so I'm not going to attempt to research it now.
Championship Tournament Match: Hacksaw Jim Duggan vs. Ted DiBiase (with Andre the Giant and Virgil)
- So far no one has come out to any kind of music.
- DiBiase wins after shenanigans. Duggan never attempted a USA chant, which explains his loss.
Mean Gene interviews Brutus The Barber Beefcake
- Gene uncomfortably (well for the audience anyway) asks about Beefcake's package.
Championship Tournament Match: Dino Bravo (with Frenchy Martin) vs. Don The Rock Muraco (with Superstar Billy Graham)
- The Rock used an instrumental version of "Superstar" by Andrew Lloyd Webber during this era, a great theme for an entrance that of course is edited out of this.
- The Rock wins via DQ after, well you know, shenanigans.
Bob Uecker interviews The Honky Tonk Man
- This is taking food out of the mouth of Craig DeGeorge, wherever he might be.
Championship Tournament Match: Greg The Hammer Valentine (with Jimmy Hart) vs. Ricky The Dragon Steamboat (with infant)
- Steamboat brings his baby to the ring, which… really… is just the dumbest thing. Put that kid to bed.
- Ventura says that Valentine can't match Steamboat's technical skill, so he should just cheat.
- Ventura name drops Barry Blaustein, who would later direct 1999′s Beyond The Mat.
- Curious bit where Steamboat rams Valentine's head into the turnbuckle 11 times, the ref breaks it up, and Steamboat starts manhandling the ref.
- After about 20 pieces of business where one of the two men crashes to the mat like a giant redwood tree, Valentine wins by pinfall. Not cleanly of course.
Mean Gene interviews The British Bulldogs (with the newly rescued Matilda) along with Koko B. Ware
Championship Tournament Match: The Natural Butch Reed (with Slick) vs. Macho Man Randy Savage (with Elizabeth)
- Reed just murders Savage the entire match until he starts gawking at Elizabeth. Savage sneaks up, hits the elbow and wins clean. Crowd pops for his victory which is the first time they've made themselves known.
Uecker interviews The Islanders with Bobby the Brain Heenan (finally!).
- A young Jonathan Coachman looks on somewhere and thinks "I can do that!"
Championship Tournament Match: One Man Gang (with Slick) vs. Bam Bam Bigelow (with Oliver Humperdink)
- This show is really, really long. I'm already kind of sick of it. The dead crowd isn't helping.
- One Man Gang wins. Count out. Shenanigans.
Mean Gene interviews the Hulkster.
Championship Tournament Match: Ravishing Rick Rude (with Bobby Heenan) vs. Jake The Snake Roberts
- I have no idea where this falls in the "Rick Rude hits on Jake's fake wife" storyline.
- This match is basically a reverse chin-lock for 20 minutes.
- The ref falls asleep and the match is declared a draw. Neither man advances.
Mean Gene interviews Vanna White and is kinda creepy about it.
Hercules (with Bobby Heenan) vs. The Ultimate Warrior
- I always thought Hercules was underrated, for a big power guy anyway.
- Lots of power moves and blown spots.
- The Ultimate Warrior wins via pinfall, then Hercules chokes out Warrior with his chain.
Recap of Hogan vs. Andre the Giant
Championship Tournament Match: Andre the Giant (with Ted DiBiase and Virgil) vs. Hulk Hogan
- I've been watching this show for at least four days now and I'm only halfway done.
- Hogan flies into the ring like an idiot and Andre immediately beats the hell out of him.
- Andre gets tied up in the ropes, and instead of taking advantage, Hogan uses this time to remove his shirt and ask for cheers from the crowd. LIKE AN IDIOT.
- DiBiase comes in with a chair and nails Hogan. Hogan is all "Nah…" and goes after DiBiase. DiBiase bails, so Hogan attacks Andre with the chair, right in front of the referee. The ref is all "Nah…" and allows the match to continue. Andre gets the chair and brains Hogan with it, again in front of the ref and again the ref allows it.
- Finally the ref calls for the bell, and so Hogan uses the chair on Andre again.
- Result is a double disqualification, which is nonsense. Hogan should have been DQed. Even stranger is that it doesn't sound like it was ever announced to the crowd.
Mean Gene interviews Randy Savage (with Elizabeth)
Championship Tournament Match: Don Muraco (with Superstar Billy Graham) vs. Ted DiBiase
- DiBiase wins via pinfall in a mostly uneventful (but well worked) match. Sorry, Rock.
Bob Uecker interviews Demolition (with Mr. Fuji)
Championship Tournament Match: Greg Valentine (with Jimmy Hart) vs. Randy Savage (with Elizabeth)
- Just noticed that Valentine isn't wearing his shin guard that he always used to cheat with. That must come about later?
- This is Savage's second match of the night where he just gets beat the entire time, only to pop up at the last minute and manage to win. This time he wins via pinfall after a small package.
Mean Gene. Vanna White. More talking about Bob Uecker.
- Vanna still likes Hulk to win it all, even though he's been eliminated.
The Honky Tonk Man (champ, with Jimmy Hart and Peggy Sue) vs. Brutus the Barber Beefcake for the Intercontinental Championship
- Peggy Sue is Sherri Martel. Huh, I didn't know that. Thanks Wikipedia!
- Also, she died in 2007. I didn't know that either. Bummer.
- Beefcake gets HTM in the sleeper, so Jimmy Hart knocks the referee unconscious.
- Brutus chases Jimmy Hart under the ring and the two wiggle around for a little bit.
- They emerge, and Beefcake cuts Hart's hair. THE ULTIMATE INSULT.
- Beefcake wins by DQ, obviously.
Bob Uecker interviews Andre the Giant
- Andre declares he's still undefeated. Uh, Wrestlemania III?
- Andre chokes Mr. Baseball. This is the 5 seconds of footage that's used all the time, in every WWE montage ever.
The Islanders and Bobby the Brain Heenan vs. The British Bulldogs (with Matilda) and Koko B. Ware (with Frankie)
- Bobby Heenan hasn't wrestled in years. He's wearing a protective suit.
- "Heenan looks like a Chinaman, don't he?" — Jesse Ventura
- Heenan actually spends a good amount of the match in the ring.
- The Islanders throw Heenan down on top of Koko B. Ware, and he scores the pinfall victory.
- Afterwards they try to get Matilda to chase down Heenan to attack him, but the dog is all "What?" and doesn't care.
Howard Finkel asks us to look at the Wrestlemania IV banner and then introduces Jesse The Body Ventura.
Championship Tournament Match: The One Man Gang (with Slick) vs. Randy Savage (with Elizabeth)
- Savage tries to slam One Man Gang. Haha, no.
- Slick goes after Elizabeth with his pimp cane while Savage is recovering from trying to lift 900 pounds.
- One Man Gang is disqualified after beating Savage with Slick's cane. That was dumb. You're a match away from the title, idiot.
Mean White. Vanna Gene. Sexual nintendos. Bob Uecker.
Demolition (with Mr. Fuji) vs. Strike Force (champs) for the World Tag Team Championship
- Strike Force has TERRIBLE entrance music. Like bad 80s cop show montage music. Okay no, that would be awesome.
- As a kid I didn't care. But now as an adult… I don't understand Demolition. The S&M outfits, the glam face paint, the body glitter, the redneck threats to kick my stinkin' teeth in… what the hell is Demolition supposed to be?
- Demolition cheats and wins the belts. Technically Tito Santana hit the referee so Strike Force should have been DQed to retain the titles.
The Million Dollar Man (with Andre the Giant) vs. Randy Savage (with Elizabeth) for the WWF World Heavyweight Championship
- Robin Leach brings the title belt to ringside on a red velvet pillow. He takes the title to Donald Trump and lets him touch it.
- Bob Uecker is introduced as the guest ring announcer. Christ. Donald Trump touches him.
- Vanna White is introduced as the guest time keeper. Please don't go over to Donald Trump.
- Gross, he touched her.
- Dave Hebner is the referee. That doesn't seem right.
- Everyone is now covered in body glitter thanks to the Demolition match.
- Andre keeps interfering so Savage sends Elizabeth to the locker room. She returns with the Hulkster.
- DiBiase has Savage in a sleeper hold, Andre interferes, the ref goes to warn him and Hogan comes in the ring with a chair and strikes DiBiase with it.
- Savage gets up, sees what Hogan did, hits the elbow and pins DiBiase. New champ. Birth of the Mega Powers.
- Ventura goes nuts about Hogan cheating, and you know what, he's right.
Sometimes I wish I could go back and slap myself as a kid. He should not have been into Hogan as much as he was. Now when he and Andre were DQed, it added a certain element of surprise to the show. But the lackluster crowd and having 197 matches really took the wind out of the sails.
WWE Network Review (not yet!): The Main Event 2/5/88
One of the hopes for the WWE Network is access to everything in the vaults. But that dream isn't there yet, not by a long shot. And I was immediately frustrated after watching the 1988 Royal Rumble because it heavily hyped the upcoming NBC card The Main Event, which featured the Hulk Hogan/Andre the Giant rematch. It's an event that I very much remember from my childhood.
Luckily, someone uploaded the event to Youtube. So let's go ahead and revisit this hour special, because I can't wait for the Network to do it.
Live from Indianapolis, Indiana. February 5th, 1988. Vince McMahon and Jesse Ventura on commentary. I have no idea what Jesse is wearing.
A somewhat homoerotic Hulk Hogan training montage is up first.
Mean Gene interviews The Honky Tonk Man with Jimmy Hart
- HTM calls Okerlund a "green bean".
- Apparently this upcoming match with Randy Savage is predicated entirely on HTM's belief that Elizabeth wants him.
The Honky Tonk Man (champ) vs. Macho Man Randy Savage for the Intercontinental Championship
- The champ is out first. His girlfriend Peggy Sue comes along, not bothered by her man's lust for Miss Elizabeth.
- Mene Gene interviews Savage. Okerlund could do his job and ask Elizabeth if she wants Honky and put an end to this angle right now, but instead he just lets Savage rage while she looks on, confused.
- Great match between these two. All kinds of drama and shenanigans, and the crowd is going absolutely bonkers.
- Savage wins via count out, after complete chaos which continues once the match is over.
Recap of the Hulk Hogan / Andre the Giant feud, then Mene Gene interviews Andre, Ted DiBiase and Virgil
Hulk Hogan (champ) vs. Andre the Giant for the WWF Heavyweight Championship
- Fans of the little seen British show ANDRE WHO? are in attendance.
- Mene Gene interviews Brother Hogan, brother, who makes faces.
- The place goes nuts when Real American hits. This is the height of Hulkamania, and 12 year old me was running around the room like an idiot right about now.
- After attacking DiBiase and Virgil, Hogan hits Andre in the face about 100 times but Andre won't go down.
- Hogan attempts a top rope maneuver (?!) but Andre puts a stop to that noise. Hogan's back immediately goes out.
- Andre in control and he just beats the living hell out of Hogan until Hogan starts Hulking Up™.
- Hogan climbs the ropes again (!) and successfully hits a clothesline on Andre from the second rope, finally knocking Andre down.
- Hogan goes for the Leg Drop of Doom but Virgil trips him. As referee Dave Hebner scolds Virgil, Hogan hits the leg drop and pins Andre for at least a five count. Hebner never sees it.
- As Hogan protests, Andre sneaks up behind him and takes him down. He pins Hogan and Hogan immediately gets his shoulder up but the ref ignores it, counting to three. New champion.
- Howard Finkel announces the NEEEEEWWWWWWWWW champion and Hogan is going mental about being robbed.
- Mean Gene comes into the ring and Andre surrenders the title to Ted DiBiase.
- Now here's where things get really smart and really stupid all at once. Referee Dave Hebner's twin brother Earl enters the ring, dressed as a referee, and the two confront each other. Which, yeah, sudden introduction of an evil twin referee, that's awesome. But why then was the other referee also in the arena, dressed to work and not noticing that his evil twin brother was in the ring working the main event? No one backstage did a double take? To further confuse just what the hell this bit was trying to accomplish, as they yell at each other they do the Star Trek evil clone thing of "No, I'm Dave Hebner. No I'm Dave Hebner. I know who I am, who the hell are you?" Wrestling logic.
- Hogan grabs them both and starts screaming at them. Eventually one Hebner clobbers the other and Hogan beats up the remaining one, throwing him out of the ring and onto DiBiase and Virgil.
- After commercial, Mean Gene interviews Hogan in the locker room, who is literally crying about being robbed of his precious belt.
As the show ends, a World Tag Team Titles match between The Hart Foundation and Strike Force (Tito Santana and Rick Martel) is in progress. Strike Force, the champions, retained the titles.
WWE Network Review: Royal Rumble 1998
Well the WWE Network is upon us and I was itching to revisit some old school wrestling (I should get that itching checked out). At $9.99 a month it's too good of a deal to pass up, and I hope the service leads to a radical shift in how companies deliver their content to customers.
The launch was a little shaky, as launches tend to be. But once it was running smoothly I decided to watch the inaugural Royal Rumble from 1988, an event I remember watching live on the USA Network. (If you don't have or refuse to get the WWE Network you can get the event on DVD from Amazon here)
Jesse the Body Ventura and Vince McMahon on commentary, always a good pairing. I'd forgotten how grating Vince's announcing voice was though. From Ontario, Canada, January 24th 1988.
Ricky the Dragon Steamboat vs. Ravishing Rick Rude
- Steamboat's music and intro have clearly been overdubbed, removing whatever entrance music he had at the time.
- Rude was a textbook heel. He worked a crowd masterfully.
- A lady in the front row has her own personal megaphone. Good luck getting one of those into an arena today.
- Lots of old school wrestling for most of this match, until it suddenly becomes Wrestlemania III all over again as there's a long, quick series of near-falls.
- Rick Rude thinks he wins by submission, but the referee awards the match to Steamboat via DQ, which was the proper call surprisingly. Rude protests.
Dino Bravo vs. weights
- This is the infamous moment where Jesse Ventura helps Dino Bravo set a "new world's record" in bench pressing to become "The World's Strongest Man". It goes on far too long, but Bravo, Ventura and Frenchy Martin work the crowd like champs to get heat.
- Someone in the crowd is a fan of Spuds MacKenzie.
The Glamour Girls (champs) vs. Jumping Bomb Angels in a 2 out of 3 falls match for the Women's Tag Team Titles
- Wait, the women's tag team titles? Those were a thing?
- Yep. Wikipedia says they were a thing from 1983-1989.
- Thanks me!
- Wikipedia also says that Leilani Kai, one of The Glamour Girls, "has trained with nunchucks for at least two years. She also rides motorcycles, deep sea fishes, and hunts wild boar."
- Overdubbed intro for the Jumping Bomb Angels.
- Joey Marella is your referee, making this the third straight event with a participant who is no longer with us.
- Ventura asks McMahon what the names of the Jumping Bomb Angels are, in case he wants to ask one out on a date later. Vince is all like "I dunno. Let's call one Pink and one Red."
- Jumping Bomb Angels win the titles and the crowd actually pops big time. This is because they were trapped in that arena and cell phones weren't readily available yet for distractions.
Footage of Hogan vs. Andre and The Million Dollar Man's offer to buy Hogan's belt. Then the contract signing for the upcoming rematch, brother.
- Jack Tunney is in the ring! Unblurred! The WWF President exists again!
- Ventura points out the hypocrisy of the Canadian crowd going nuts for Real American playing over the loudspeakers.
- Andre makes Hogan wait. And wait. And wait some more. The crowd rabidly chants "Hogan! Hogan!" They desperately want to see that contract get signed.
- Dibiase gets on the mic and publicly shames Hogan like a boss, daring him to sign his career-ending contract.
- Andre finally signs and then beats Hogan with the signing table. Hogan spazzes and convulses in the ring like he's been poisoned.
The inaugural Royal Rumble match
- Bret Hart and Tito Santana are the first two participants and are already in the ring as the rules are explained.
- 20 participants in this one, arriving in 2 minute intervals. Going over the top rope signals your elimination, doesn't matter where your feet hit. That'll change.
- As Howard Finkel explains the rules, this little kid is confused as fuck.
- I'd forgotten Jesse's obsession with calling Tito Santana "Chico".
- The Rock! The Rock is here! Oh wait, it's Don "The Rock" Muraco.
- The final stats, according to Wikipedia:
Recap of the contract signing. Then it's time for Hulk Hogan to talk.
- Hogan is out with Craig DeGeorge. Craig DeGeorge sighting!
- Hogan has changed his shirt and is now wearing the belt, brother.
- Nope, there goes the shirt, brother.
- If you're drinking every time there's a "brother" you're now dead.
The Islanders vs. The Young Stallions in a 2 out of 3 falls match
- Bobby Heenan has been absent this entire show, which is a shame.
- Vince is now telling Jesse that his segment with Dino Bravo was boring. Way to sell your own product Vince!
- Jesse continues to berate Vince's lack of muscles, which is amusing knowing what we know now.
- Vince says the Islanders can hang upside down from the top rope just using their toes. Jesse tells him that he's racist and makes a Jimmy the Greek reference.
- Needless to say, the match itself is not worth talking about.
- The Islanders win the first fall via count out, then we go to commercial, then when we come back Craig DeGeorge is interviewing The Million Dollar Man and Andre the Giant. Okay…
- DeGeorge tries to interrupt whatever the hell Andre is saying and just about gets murdered for his troubles.
- Another commercial, because current Young Stallion and future Four Horseman member Paul Roma is "injured".
- Jesse makes fun of the Indy 500 and Vince says he'd like to see him dragged behind an Indy car. Yikes.
- The Islanders win via submission. Why did they close the show with this dud?
- Vince continues to give Jesse shit about Dino Bravo's "world record" then hype Hogan vs. Andre II as the show ends.
An Update Of Stuff And Things
Well, it looks like my blog hosting just auto-renewed for another year. Better do something with this space, right?
Just some updates. Everything is still awesome in the world of yours truly. I just don't seem to blog much anymore. No one does, really. TL;DR and all that.
But I still do things. If I have something to say, I usually say it on Twitter. If you're not following me there, you really should. It's where I'm at my most awesome-est. When I need to say something longer than 140 characters, our two podcasts are still rocking right along. Bad movie fans should check out BMFcast.com and video game players should listen to NoQuarters.net. Both are awesome, and should be enjoyed even if you don't like video games or bad movies.
We've also added live streaming to our shows. When we stream live we usually let everyone know via Twitter (either @BMFcast or @NoQuartersNet). Currently this is done via Google Hangouts and then archived to YouTube, so check out the dedicated YouTube pages for both Bad Movie Fiends and No Quarters.
I'm still making the videos as well. 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days continues, against my better judgment. I may or may not be doing Sci-Fi Spring Break again too. And Worst Movie Scenes of All Time has recently been rebranded and relaunched as Watch This Scene, mainly to update the graphics and theme music WHICH WILL ROCK YOU LIKE A HURRICANE. We're also making video game related videos over on the No Quarters channel.
And if I've needed to say something about a movie I've been doing so on Letterboxd, which if they get their shit together could end up being a great social network site for movie lovers.
So, there's an update. Hosting fee justified. Not really.
2012 Video Game Report Card
This is an ongoing post where I'll keep track of all the games I finish (or abandon in anger) in 2012. (Note: I am not a girl.)
Finished in November
- Medal of Honor: Warfighter (360) | Grade: B- | There are some really great driving sequences in this. Unfortunately the game is not called Wardriver. Everything about it is just mostly okay. The story makes little sense and focuses on the wrong things.
- Forza Horizon (360) | Grade: A | Challenging yet relaxing, colorful, fun racing title with atmosphere galore. Really solid game.
- WWE '13 (360) | Grade: B+ | Best story mode in a wrestling game ever, one I hope continues and thrives as the standard for WWE games.
- Need for Speed Most Wanted (360) | Grade: B+ | The 2012 version of Most Wanted is Burnout Paradise with cops. Needed more personality and character in the single player mode.
- Call of Duty Black Ops II (360) | Grade: B+ | Not as engaging as the original BLOPS and takes some weird turns as far as who you play as in certain segments. The last 3rd of the game is amazing though before it kinda all falls apart at the very end.
- The Walking Dead: Episode 5 (XBLA) | Grade: A+ | Game of the Year. No question. Maybe even my favorite of this entire generation of games.
- Asura's Wrath (360) | Grade: A- | Interactive anime quick time event beat 'em up weirdness. Loved it, despite the bullshit ending.
Finished in October
- The Walking Dead: Episode 4 (XBLA) | Grade: A | Holy. Crap. Again.
- Quantum of Solace (360) | Grade: B+ | Treyarch's James Bond game takes some interesting liberties with the first two Daniel Craig movies, still manages to be a lot of fun.
Finished in August
- The Walking Dead: Episode 3 (XBLA) | Grade: A | Holy. Crap.
Finished in July
- NCAA Football 08 (360) | Achievement point whoring! 1000/1000
- NCAA Football 07 (360) | Achievement point whoring! 1000/1000
- NHL 2K6 (360) | Achievement point whoring! 1000/1000
- Front Mission Evolved (360) | Grade: B- | Don't ask me what this game is about other than giant mechs and space elevators. You get to shoot stuff. Someone in the game might be your Dad, and he might be a good guy or a bad guy.
Finished in June
- EA Sports MMA (360) | Grade: C+ | Completed the story mode twice and got all the offline achievements (online play is no longer possible). Technically sound, but still long loads times and a sport I don't care about.
- Madden 06 (360) | Achievement point whoring! Completed 1000/1000 Gamerscore while watching E3 coverage.
- Major League Baseball 2K6 (360) | Achievement point whoring! Completed 1000/1000 Gamerscore while watching E3 coverage.
- Madden 09 (360) | Achievement point whoring! Completed 1000/1000 Gamerscore while watching E3 coverage.
- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 (360) | Grade: B- | Super condensed version of the movie. Play the scenes that could easily be a video game, watch the rest. Spell casting is fun.
- Homefront (360) | Grade: C- | So it's Red Dawn, from the writer of Red Dawn, done so damn poorly. The story is more epic than anything you end up doing, and you never feel like you're part of the bigger picture. Disappointing.
- Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters (360) | Grade: B+ | Surprisingly not bad, and actually better than the feature film. Action/beat 'em up with Ryan Reynolds actually providing the voice for his character.
- Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood (360) | Grade: B+ | Prequel to the first game and superior in every way. Worth a playthrough, even worth two playthroughs (one as each main character).
- Madden 08 (360) | Achievement point whoring! 1000/1000
- Fight Night Champion (360) | Story Mode Grade: A- / Overall Grade: C+ | Easily the greatest story mode ever in a sports game. The overall game has some serious technical flaws though.
- Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut (360) | Grade: A | Why couldn't you have done this the first time around, Bioware? Game still has some jank but the ending is much improved.
- The Walking Dead: Episode 2 (XBLA) | Grade: A- | Still some of the best storytelling of this generation with some amazingly difficult moral choices, but technically this episode needed a little longer to cook.
Finished in May
- Pac-Man: Championship Edition (XBLA) | Grade: A | Just needed one more achievement to reach 200/200, finally got it. Great update to the original Pac-Man.
- Pac-Man Championship Edition DX (XBLA) | Grade: A- | Same situation as Pac-Man: CE. Only knock against this game is that the previous one was just a little better.
- Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock (360) | Grade: C+ | Strip away all the stupid bullshit about Rock being an ancient force and a giant Gene Simmons battling a robot, and there's a surprisingly deep rhythm game with tons more features than Rock Band 3. Only 40% of the soundtrack is any good though. Thanks for killing the genre guys.
Finished in April
- F.E.A.R. Files (360) | Grade: B+ | Two non-canon expansion packs. The first is better than the original game, the second is sadly more of a shooter than a creepfest. Still, great stuff.
- The Walking Dead: Episode 1 (XBLA) | Grade: A | Impressive as hell, great look and atmosphere, nicely done all around. I hope the next 4 chapters can live up to this.
Finished in March
- Mass Effect 2 (360) | Grade: A+ | Second playthrough, this time with all the DLC. Still one of my favorite games this generation.
- Mass Effect 3 (360) | Grade: A- | Technical bugs and a totally disappointing final scene hurt what is otherwise still a terrific game. Look for a No Quarters spoilercast soon with lots of in-depth talk on this one…
- F.E.A.R. (360) | Grade: B+ | Holds up surprisingly well for a launch era port, with some great atmosphere and some legitimate creepy moments. Story is nonsense though.
Finished in February
- Syndicate (360) | Grade: B | Solid first person shooter, short on story. Guns feel great, and you feel right at home playing through it. Not as robust as Deus Ex though.
- Red Faction Guerrilla (360) | Grade: B- | I could only play this in hour long chunks. Not much story, which makes most of the game feel repetitive and lackluster. Still, I love smashing buildings and watching them fall onto EDF troops.
Finished in January
- Dragon Age: Origins (360) | Grade: A+ | Simply amazing storytelling. I wish I'd played this one sooner. Now to go through all the DLC…
- Call of Duty: Black Ops (360) | Grade: A- | Surprisingly unique single-player mode… for a CoD game. Amazing presentation and impressive graphics too. More of this please.
- Dragon Age Origins: Awakening (360) | Grade: A- | Not as polished as the main game, but still a solid 20 hour expansion pack.
- Call of Juarez (360) | The gameplay is woefully outdated, which is a shame because playing as both sides of the same story seemed interesting.
- Operation Darkness (360) | A Japanese turn-based, grid-based RPG about World War II with Final Fantasy-esque characters fighting Nazis, and then eventually vampires. Not as fun as that sounds.
- Castlevania: SOTN (XBLA) | Just not my kind of game anymore. Didn't feel like playing more than 10 minutes of it.
- Star Trek: Legacy (360) | It took 5 years, but finally I'm ready to say it. F*ck this f*cking game.
- Thor: God of Thunder (360) | Conceptually interesting, lackluster graphics, poor level design. Gave up during the finale, which is so badly realized that you can end up playing it completely wrong and prevent completion of the game.
- Madden 12 (360) | The NFL isn't doing it for me much anymore, and so I got the easy achievements (about 570/1000 in only a couple of games) and got out.
- The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (360) | Played for about 30 hours, hadn't played it in over a month, no desire to return. Got what I needed to get from it.
- Burnout Revenge (360) | Since the online servers were shutting down, we thought we'd play some multiplayer and get those achievements. Sometimes you can't go back. And I can't go forward in this game anymore. Hit the wall.
- Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (360) | With this game I realized just how "over" the Star Wars universe I am. Force powers are fun, but the blind jumping, poor checkpoints and insanely radical shifts in tone were just too damn annoying.
- Trials HD (XBLA) | Time to give this game two middle fingers and call it a day.
- Pac-Man (XBLA) | Yes, the classic arcade version. There's one achievement I'll never get, so that's that really.
- Game Room (XBLA) | You can still go there. Games are still $3. And to get any more achievements, I'd have to purchase more games. Not gonna happen. Great idea, horrible execution. Way to fuck up something potentially awesome, Microsoft.
- Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection (360) | One achievement left to go (950/1000) but it's one I'll probably never get. Nice compilation though, and a disc I'll be keeping in my collection.
- BCFX: Black College Football The Xperience (360) | Achievement point whoring! Completed 690/1000 Gamerscore while watching E3 coverage. (Would have gotten the entire 1000, but the game really, REALLY sucks.)
- Madden NFL 07 (360) | Achievement point whoring! Completed 945/1000 before declaring the rest of the achievements unattainable.
- Beijing 2008 (360) | Olympic games should be better than this by now. Deleted from my profile entirely.
- NCAA March Madness 07 (360) | Achievement point whoring! Completed 700/1000 before declaring the rest of the achievements unattainable.
- MLB Front Office Manager (360) | Started playing this for points, then the "What the hell am I doing?!" realization hit me.
- Eragon (360) | Started out as a mildly decent licensed game, grew extremely tedious as it went along.
- Sonic All Stars Racing Transformed (360) | Well done Mario Cart clone that's better suited for multiplayer matches. Was a fun rental.
- Street Fighter IV (360) | Took me about 7 minutes to realize that I do not like Street Fighter games. At all.
- Super Street Fighter IV (360) | And adding Super to the title doesn't help.
Down the Gobble Hole
As predicted, I've gone and lost my mind.
Despite my lifelong gaming career, I've never owned any kind of arcade machine. Never even been close to owning one. For the most part, classic games I'd want to play have been recreated on PC and other gaming platforms, so if I ever got the itch to play Dragon's Lair there's always an easy solution.
Then pinball came along.
The Xbox 360 releases of Pinball Hall of Fame: The Williams Collection, Pinball FX and Pinball Arcade have reintroduced me to the world of pinball. Now I wasn't entirely unfamiliar mind you. Growing up in arcades as I did, pinball machines were always available. The local pizza parlor had a 1980 Gottlieb machine called Star Race that I put many of my parents' quarters into. But as video games progressed, pinball seemed to die out, and I never really gave it a second thought. After playing these recent recreations though, I slipped into old man mode and started wishing for "how things used to be".
See, you can recreate classic video games, most of them perfectly. But while you can make a digital version of a classic pinball machine, it is not the same nor will it ever be. And this became the appeal. I can download a billion ROMs and play every video game I never got the chance to, but pinball machines… once they break down and die, that's it. They're gone. And so I wanted to play them.
There are 50+ public machines in my local metropolitan area available to play, most of which are in lousy locations and/or don't work properly. So I investigated further, and found there are at least three pinball festivals a year in the state. After attending my first, that was it, I had to have one of my very own. Sure I knew practically nothing about maintaining one, but why let some pesky detail like that get in the way? Must own pinball machine.
I wish I'd come to this realization 10 years or so ago, since the market for pinball was quite different back then. Everyone is aware of the scarcity of pinball these days, and so unfortunately tables come at a premium. But luckily, after a couple weeks of searching, I found one on Craigslist for a very reasonable price. So reasonable that even if I ended up breaking it trying to repair it, other components could still be sold off to make up for the loss.
And so I now own a Williams table from 1964, called San Francisco.
It has some minor issues. The first player score reel won't reset properly at the start of the game, some bulbs need replacing, and someone did a terrible job of painting over the original cabinet art which must be corrected immediately. Other than that, plays fine, just needs some minor cleaning. The playfield though for the most part is pretty great.
I'd totally consider owning a Dragon's Lair machine now by the way.
After the break are some videos related specifically to the maintenance and display of this machine. They're there mostly for my sake, but if you're curious by all means check them out.

Market guide | Zillow predicts Yerba Buena home values will rise 3.2% next year, compared to a 3.6% increase for San Francisco as a whole. Among Yerba Buena homes, this home is 39.2% less expensive than the midpoint (median) home, but is priced 27% more per square foot. Foreclosures will be a factor impacting home values in the next several years. In the Yerba Buena market, the number of foreclosures waiting to be sold decreased 12.6% in the last year. The number of unsold foreclosures is 2.9% less than in San Francisco, and 80.4% lower than the national average. This lower local number could help Yerba Buena home values rise more quickly than other regions in San Francisco. Learn more about forecast calculations or Yerba Buena home values.… MoreLess |

A&J DAILY: The voice inside must always agree with God's Word.
, With 0 Comments, Category: Blog, Devotional,John 10:27 "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me."
Motives, ambitions and preconceived ideas, can make it difficult for us to recognize God's voice. All these things can make us hear what we want to hear and not necessarily what God is telling us. It is important to remember, that the voice we hear inside, must always agree with God's Word.
