Life Is Strange - There's Always A Lighthouse

Don’t mind me, just doing the token review while goofing off.

Okay, that sounded weird. Lemme rewind that.

If you’re like me, you know you love alternate timelines. A cavalcade of possibilities and finding out the consequences. The question “What if?” being constantly asked whether it’s in video games, literature, or real life, at least until the depression meds kicks in. If only we can rewind after we realized we fucked up. There has to be a better way!

Mobilicity

Well, that's depressing to see on my Facebook news feed. It's expected after seeing news of it on May of this year. I just wish it didn't have to be like this.

You've been wonderful. Never had a bad experience using your service.

Great things must come to an end though. I wish it never had do. Otherwise, I'd still be working there, loving every day of it, and getting great service.

Goodbye to the company that gave me the best job in the world. I always miss seeing the network name on my phone.

Goodbye, Mobilicity. I was loyal to you until the very end.

"Superkick Party" by Suplex Industries - Elite Time Waster

As you probably realized, I love professional wrestling no matter how stupid or incomprehensible as it can get. I even love fun wrestling games even more. There are a lot of fun wrestling games on consoles but not a lot for mobile. Sure, there’s WWE Immortals which is a fighting game that should’ve been released on consoles because it’s that epic. WWE 2K15 was also released on mobile but it’s unnecessary since it wasn’t fun in consoles so how the heck would it even be fun on a smaller, less powerful device? How about a simple game based on wrestling instead? Yes, that’s something even better since we don’t have to play with more than 2 on screen buttons. Let’s talk about Superkick Party, a paid game on Android and iOS.

Fire Pro Wrestling Returns - We Didn’t Start The Fire

Whenever I’m not singing the praises of Grand Theft Auto and Dynasty Warriors, I love playing wrestling games. Sure, the WWE games haven’t been good since Smackdown Vs Raw 2006 and after being burned so many times, this march into perfect simulation since WWE 2K15 has been a march off a cliff. Unless I and a legion of other wrestling game fans are incredibly wrong, WWE 2K17 would just be average at best.

“Ralphy, you keep mentioning WWE 2K17, are you even gonna review it?”

I bloody hell won’t because I’m not spending $79.99 on a sports game, especially a yearly WWE game. Even 3 years ago when WWE 2K14 was released, I bought it when when it was on sale in EB Games for 30 dollars. Since WWE 2K17 is being released soon like how a rabid dog or a useless Pokemon is being released, let’s take a look at other better wrestling games. As usual, expect a bit more wrestling references so I apologize in advance.

Review - WWE Smackdown! Here Comes The Pain - Shining Star

Whenever I’m not roaming around in open world games, I love to play wrestling games. I’m a wrestling fan and damn proud of it. I’ve been a fan for 15 years now. Sure I could’ve studied but oh look, “Stone Cold” Steve Austin is on TV facing The Rock! Gimme a hell yeah!

With WWE 2K17 coming out and most likely going to disappoint as much as Mighty Number 9, it’s no surprise that wrestling fans take these games with as much doubt as possible because of how burned they’ve been in the past. WWE 13 was okay but had a terrible unfixed glitch where the AI would kick out at one like superheroes. WWE 2K15 was terribly buggy and lacking in features from 2K14. WWE 2K16 was a baby step forward but it was still half-baked in terms of “modern wrestling simulation” that these are presented as. However, I would present the universal title of “fun wrestling game” to WWE Smackdown! Here Comes The Pain (goddamn, that’s a long name).
