Oh life is just getting fucked up. I hope they come out with this. After they showed us like all the videos and feattures for it. I will just have to go to L.A. and steal the game from IGN. I highly doubt it will work. Worth a try. But people have already pre-ordered the game so Jakks should fight back on this.
Plus they already started the count down!!!NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I DID'NT EVEN GET TO HEAR KANES ENTRANCE OR SEE LEGEND UNDERTAKER!!!! I cant belive this.2 weeks unti lthe game is out. And they cancel it!!!!!! DAMNIT!!!! Last edited by t-man; 10-19-2004 at 11:55 PM. |

Legend of the Day #3
 Height: 6'3" Hometown: Chicago, IL Weight: 277lbs Hawk was born in Chicago, Illinois and moved to Minneapolis when he was fourteen years old. Prior to his wrestling career, he worked as a bouncer and collector of gambling debts. Before Animal was a wrestler, he was a high school All-American in both baseball and football. Although he was offered several scholarships in baseball, Animal set his sights on the gridiron. Many thought he would be drafted by the NFL. Unfortunately, he blew out his knee in his second-to-last collegiate game. Hawk, together with his long-time tag team partner, Animal, has been a tag team champion since day one. In their very first match, Hawk and Animal won tag team gold on June 6th, 1983. For more than fifteen years, Hawk and Animal have displayed their dominance by holding every tag team title possible. They've wrestled all around the world, and have enjoyed tremendous success in both the United States and Japan. The Road Warriors are widely considered the Greatest Tag Team of All Time.

It sucks that the game'll likely either be delayed a lot of not come out, but I really can't blame the WWE for taking action against THQ if they were supposidly cheated out of millions of dollars.

THQ Comments on WWE Lawsuit
CALABASAS HILLS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 19, 2004--THQ(R) Inc. (NASDAQ:THQI) offered comments today concerning the lawsuit filed by World Wrestling Entertainment Inc. (NYSE:WWE) (the "WWE") earlier today against JAKKS Pacific, Inc. (NASDAQ:JAKK), THQ and others. THQ is committed to preserving its rights under the videogame license with the WWE. THQ believes the WWE is pleased with the manner in which THQ has managed their brand in the video game category. As THQ is not directly accused of any wrongdoing in the complaint -- rather the complaint alleges wrongdoing on the part of JAKKS Pacific and others of which THQ was and is unaware -- THQ is not in a position to comment on these allegations. In any event, either there is no basis for terminating the video game license, or THQ expects to be made whole by those whose conduct is eventually found to be unlawful. THQ intends to vigorously protect and pursue its rights, if necessary. The lawsuit has no effect on games currently scheduled for release, including WWE SmackDown!(TM) vs. Raw(TM), which is scheduled to ship on November 2. About THQ THQ(R) Inc. is a leading, worldwide developer and publisher of interactive entertainment software for a variety of hardware platforms including PC CD-ROM, wireless devices, and those manufactured by Sony Computer Entertainment America Inc., Nintendo and Microsoft.

lol i was waiting for someone to post that, surprised it took this long
anyway, some of us value video games more than you do, is that a big deal? i'd think not, and i'd also think it's pretty obvious everything we said were just exxagurations, life would go on and we'd all forget about it in a few days. |

I spit in the face of people who don't include Carlito Caribbean Cool in SmackDown vs. Raw. Carlito not being in SD vs. Raw? That's not cool.
I know this was an odd thing to post right after everyone was ready to kill someone at the mention of SD vs. Raw almost being delayed, but damnit... I love Carlito Caribbean Cool! |

Notes on Hawk:
- UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURGH WHAT A RUSH! Hawk comes down to the ring wearing his trademark Spiked Shoulder pads. He walks down the ramp and gets in the ring. He climbs the top rope and taunts. - Match starts out against Rhyno, no pre-match battles. Hawk hits first with a flying shoulder tackle. Rhyno then gets lifted up by Hawk for a gorilla press slam. After holding him up there for abit and doing a couple of reps with Rhyno, Hawk drops him face first. Hawk picks up Rhyno and delivers a nasty shoulder breaker, then a underhook backbreaker and a spinebuster. - Hawk stomps away on Rhyno before picking him up and leveling him with a belly-to-belly suplex. Hawk hits a butterfly suplex and a stalling verticle suplex. Rhyno then gets taken down again with a single arm ddt. - Hawk hits a big boot on Rhyno then whips him into the corner. Hawk then gives Rhyno the ol' snake eyes. Hawk then hits his neckbreaker finisher and pins Rhyno after 3:18. Even though the theme is a rip off, I'm glad they still got the what a rush part in

Just realised I'm busy later, so here are the notes from Taboo Tuesday:
The video opens up with the Official trailer from the game. Once that is over the Summerslam set appears so the first match looks to be the Elmination Chamber match. Doing the commentry is Jeremy Dunham and Ivan Sulic. John Robertson is away on business, so thats why Ivan is filling in for him. So first match up the Elimination Chamber: - Christian comes out first. He makes his way down to the ring. They explain how the Elimination Chamber match came about, saying it was 6 from the other 7 guys who didn't win the other polls. The guy who got left out is A-Train. Matt Hardy is second out. According to Matt facts, Matt like thin crust pizza and has four different phone numbers. Rhyno is the third guy to make an enterance. Tajiri is next out, they talk about how come the former ECW guys wear the singlets. Plaumbo is out next and they joke about how long six enterances can go on for. Garrison Cade is the last guy out. They joke about how uninteresting he is. - The match starts out with Palumbo going against Tajiri. The guys explain the rules of the Elimination Chamber. Tajiri is getting the upper hand over Palumbo, landing with kicks and punches. They talk about the improvements of the chamber compared to HCTP. Garrison Cade is released from his chamber and is taken the piss out of again. Palumbo is dominating Cade, and hits a cool looking samone drop. They say that the Elimination Chamber matches have happen twice, both at SummerSlam, which is completly wrong, as the first was at Survivor Series. Rhyno is the next guy out of his chamber. - Palumbo whips Tajiri into the chamber and the glass breaks. Christian is next out. They talk about how the AI is still abit dodgy, saying why are they just fighting on the steel floor and not in the ring. Matt Hardy is the last guy out of his chamber. They talk about Rumble Roses, and how it uses last years Smackdown engine. Meanwhile, Cade pins Palumbo on the outside and is eliminated. I had hoped they would fix that, but I guess not. All five wrestlers are in the ring now. Tajiri hits Cade with the Buzzsaw kick and pins him for the three. - They talk about how wrestling has evolved from straight out wrestling to the more hardcore wrestling. Tajiri gets thrown into another chamber and the glass breaks again. Rhyno then pins Tajiri. They talk about the Diva's and how not many people care about them in the game. Hardy hits the Twist of Fate on Rhyno, but Christian goes and attempts to pin Hardy. Christian whips Rhyno into a chamber. Christian then hits a hurricanrana on Hardy and pins him. - Christian goes for a Gore on Rhyno, but misses. They talk about the lawsuit between THQ and the WWE. Christian locks in a submission on Rhyno, but he escapes. Christian then hits a lowblow on Rhyno and gets the 3 count for the win. Next match is the Tag Team TLC match. |

Tag Team TLC match: Kane & Batista vs Edge & Chris Benoit
- They say how this match came about, it was the runners up from the world title match and the intercontinental match. Batista is the first guy out, they think he will go a long way in the business. Kane is out next. They say why did Kane take his mask off and talk how Kane is a big Rainbow Six fan. Benoit is next out, along with Edge. Edge slides in the ring and Benoit climbs in normally. - Batista and Edge start out wrestling whilst Benoit gets a sledgehammer. So far Batista and Kane are killing Benoit and Edge, but the tide turns when Edge and Benoit grab weapons. They say how they would like to see this match in real life. Aparantly Kane is only 29. They talk about the Snitsky/Kane storyline. Kane and Batista are beating the crap out of Edge with chairs. They then talk about the Bossman/Big Show fued, in which Bossman taunted Show about his dead dad. - Benoit whips Kane onto the announcers table but Kane gets up and powerslams Benoit through the table. Whilst that is going on, in the ring Batista has just given Edge his Sitdown Powerbomb, but Edge reverses it. Kane kills Edge with a nasty chair shot, which shows a new animation. They talk about the dirty meter, and what it can do. Kane activates his dirty meter and uses it to chokes out Edge. Kane then hits his Powerbomb pin move on Benoit before Edge breaks it up. - They talk about the clean meter. Kane whacks Benoit with the chair and then puts him in the Crossface. Batista hits Edge with the steps and busts him open and then does it to Benoit. Batista activates his dirty meter but doesn't do it. Edge DDT's Kane onto the chair and gets a 2 count. Benoit locks Batista in the Sharpshooter, but escapes. Edge hits the Edgeucation on Batista and gets the 3 count. Next match is Shelton Benjamin vs Chris Jericho. |

Shelton Benjamin vs Chris Jericho
- Shelton Benjamin comes out first, then Jericho comes out. They talk about how Jeremy beat Benjamin at HCTP. The match starts out with a test of strength battle which Benjamin wins. They talk about the other battles. They say that everytime you wrestle that a battle will happen if you have them on, unlike the previous builds when they were slightly more random. - Jericho gets a 2 count after a northern lights suplex. Jericho is pretty much dominating the match. They talk about how Benjamin taught Brock Lesnar how to wrestle and how they trainned together. Jericho hits the running Enziguri on Benjamin but gets a 2 count. Jericho has Benjamin in a headlock, but Benjamin gets to the rope but holds on to the hold till the count of 4. They talk at how the crowd looks this year. - Benjamin hits a t-bone suplex on Jericho and then drops him with a reverse DDT. Jericho gets whipped into the corner and Benjamin hits a stinger splash. Jericho fights back but Benjamin regains control. They talk some more about the AI using submission moves. Benjamin hits Jericho with a powerslam and pins him for the 3 count. Next match is Orton vs Flair. |

Ironman Match: Randy Orton vs Ric Flair
As this match goes on for 15 minutes, I will only note the main parts and pinfalls/submissions. - Ric Flair comes out first, and they say how he looks like Skeletor. Orton is out next. Orton now has his proper music. The enterance is exactly the same, but with new music. Jeremy bangs his elbow on the table and they joke about it for abit, pretty "LOL" commentry there. - Orton gets the first fall after an RKO. They talk about the production quality of games around today. Orton hits another RKO, but doesn't go for a pin. They say that the WWE didn't want the Diva's to bleed. - Orton gets a second pinfall by a powerslam right on 0:00. Orton wins the match 2-0. Next up is HBK vs Triple H |
