I've just started playing Loco Roco on the PSP. Great music and super colourful graphics


Love that game. Hard.

Bought both Uncharted and Burnout: Paradise for my PS3, very cool games. Wouldn't say they are OMG TEH AWEZOME!11! but they do offer some great gameplay.

I really like how Uncharted plays like a movie but still doesn't feel like its on rails.

My best at this stage is Zack "Rip" Morgan. I think I'm trying to have too many different styles going on though, and aside from my top two, the rest of my guys are just floundering along.


Charlie Evans is probably more suited to chop down than counter strike I think. And maybe try powerlocks with Brook Hayes. I don't know. Kind of tricky stats to work with. I think it's definitely better if you can try get your guys all working along similar lines though, I'm trying to get my pro wrestling camp all dealing in pull guard/flying submissions, with a secondary emphasis on fast feet/chop down. Just because that way I can focus on getting the best training equipment for the relevant stats and not have to try get the best equipment in all stats.

Cheers, I'll try them out like that. I should really move everyone more in the way of Pat Brooks though, he's a machine!

Since I credit both Double D and K_B for getting me into MMArmy.com. Here's a question for you's to help me with.

What style suits this fighter?

Art "Sugar Daddy" Wood

I have no clue what to put him under as my best fighter's style is 8 points of contact.

I've been playing the new Zelda game for DS, pretty cool game. The graphics are great for the system and the story is better than the usual Zelda fair. Not entirely convinced by the control scheme tho, it works fine but gets annoying when playing for long times.

Also been playing Smackdown/Raw 08 on DS. It's alright for what it is, another touch screen only control scheme thats fun in short bursts but can get annoying. Check it out if your a wrestling fan with a DS, it's a fun little game.

Looking forward to getting back to NZ to play Patapon on my PSP, the game looks similar to LocoRoco, so it's definitely worth checking out.

Looking at his stats, his best style to me definitely looks like it'd be ground and pound. Nice balance, which is very useful in taking people down, couple stars in wrestling is a nice little starting off point, and a little bit of Judo, so that's the 'ground' part taken care of. The 'pound' part of ground and pound requires power obviously so your strikes can do damage, and I think brawling is the functional stat. Pretty sure it is at this point anyway. And you have a nice start in that department. So I'd say he's best suited to using ground and pound than any other style, the only thing he doesn't have a lot of is strength, which you really need a lot for any wrestling style (ground and pound, lay and pray, power locks). That's what I'd be working on.

Edit: Oh shit you retired him. :lol: Oh well.

Anybody played WWC on PS2? I saw it in the warehouse catalogue for 20 bucks (or 3 for 50) and wondered if it was any good.

I had a three hour session with Rock Band on the PS3 last night, soooo fun

Our band rocked Germany for a while, went over to London for a bit and are now doing a small tour of the states

It's my mates, I think he imported it from the States (which was a pain cause it came with a faulty guitar that he had to return for a replacement)

I've played the drums for years so playing it was really intuative, and singing was cool because the song selection is so much better than any singstar game too

So in short, you can come around to my place if you want but I'll be out at my mates place playing Rock Band

Do you have to drum every beat? Because, somehow, not, would be counter-intuitive.

On expert the drumming is pretty much exactly the same as what's in the song which is pretty hard (Go with the flow by Queens of the Stoneage just about killed my bass drum leg) but the other difficulty levels simplify things

I was playing on hard which was a good balance between realism and actually having fun, but had to go down to medium for really fast songs that I wasn't familiar with (Iron Maiden can bite my bum)

A hilarious thing we did was check out the online scoreboards to see which "bands" have the highest scores. It was the most impressive collection of offensive / stupid band names I've ever seen, we laughed for about an hour doing that

Playing Guitar Hero, I have come up with three awesome names for my bands.
One being Rainbow Kiss, if you don't know what it is, look it up.
The other one being Sandpaper Sodomy.
Then STD, cause I named the guys Steve Tony and Dave who also play in the band.
