Not really. Keeping the belt on Lesnar + Lesnar being on TV less and less was ALL creative/McMahon’s decision in an attempt to get Reigns cheered. Now there’s a champ that the majority dislike; if anything, the fact that creative will have to constantly make Reigns “look strong” leaves them even more stunted than having a missing champion.

I honestly think they have a spade to play with Braun having the money in the bank. If WWE is smart ( I know I know ) if the crowd is not feeling Roman as champ, they can have a new champ anytime they want with Braun wrecking him with a cash in. Even with Braun or anybody else as champ, they will have a present champ that opens up story possibilities  that just wasn't there with Brock only appearing a few times a year. Brock really hamstrung story telling IMO and I didn't care if James Ellsworth became the universal champ, the belt just had to come off of Brock. He gave the belt a much needed status boost but WWE needs the presence of their belt holders.

Didn't even play anything but Madden 18. Have a 10 game winning streak in online play.

Damn  

Brock is no longer the champ!  I think this will open up creative a lot.

Double Dribble for the NES.  Loved that game so much when I was young, but yikes, it's aged poorly.

Basketball games age quickly and horribly.

In all seriousness, Bionic Commando for the NES! My god, I thought that game was a classic for all time and then I played it recently and thought, “my god, this is kinda poopy.” 

Damn, really? Guess that is one not to touch and just live with the Rearmed  version, lol.

Honestly for me, most game's prior to the PS1 era don't really age that well. I remember being burnt out on side scrollers during the SNES/Genesis era so the shift to 3-D really helped keep my interest in gaming going.  I do remember trying to go back to Perfect Dark several years after it was out and absolutely LOATHING it despite loving it before,

I never really played Perfect Dark growing up so the first time I truly played it was on Rare Replay on Xbox 1. I could see how it was impact full for its time but playing it now made me realize how far first person shooters have came and made me appreciate mechanics that are just automatic in most FPS' today that was even a though back in the day.

Well, @Hurdyb1, I don't think you were overhyping this issue too much as I thought it was great! 

 

- Art was fantastic! 

- First big "moment" was a bit of low hanging fruit, but the second one was definitely more surprising. 

- Ending reveal was pretty damn good! 

 

All in all, a very good start to this 5 issue story. 

I hope they stick the landing with this one.

Banked like an airplane when turning too.

Sure did! LOL!

I think we all know how great of a game it was growing up. I popped it in recently........and it has not aged well. Graphics are ugh compared to our standards today and the play controls are antiquated making it a tough play now.

That was a good damn trailer. The comic book nerd appreciated some scenes in there. I liked season 1 but while I haven't  seen Luke Cage season 2, I hope there is serious maturity of Danny and the martial arts has to rival or surpass the DD seasons which  it did not in the first season. 

Again, thinking outside the box but The Crib in NFL2K5. Players could customize with posters, jerseys, furniture, cardboard cutouts of cheerleaders, and more.

Oh shit, how could I have forgotten about the Mother Fuckin' Normandy from Mass Effect?!

OH YEAH!!!! DUH!!!!! We all did. 

I can't wait to watch it this weekend. I've been watching the extras but to be honest I was hoping for a LOT more extras on this one. Probably a little difficult to do since they filmed both movies at the same time.

Unique but Gears of War. I often enjoyed the down times in the Gears of War series when you could hear the characters interact with each other,  about their various experiences, and just get little information about them. I so appreciated the space inbetween the action.

I agree. Especially in RE3 Nemesis when he is chasing you.

OMG!!!!! PREACH!!!!!!!

Resident Evil's typewriter save areas was the first thing that popped in my mind when I saw this title. Like you said, nothing could touch you. It really was a major stress reliever.

It's probably more about a cultural shift toward not letting kids having unsupervised time.

So so true. 

Punisher #1 (isn't this Frankie's 5th #1 in the past 6-8 years?)

X-Men Gold 34

X-Men Red #1

Seems like it will be another weekend of 

Gears of War 4 horde mode 

Madden 18, I cannot get enough of playing people online. I am not great but it's not nice to be able to hold your own against people who don't have the greatest of football IQs. 

RIP

I need to rewatch the movie. I liked the way it ended. 

Michael Caine is 85? Whoa........

I still need to get Super Luigi U for my Wii U. New Super Mario Bros U was a great game.

Good to know!  Looking forward to reading it.

Whenever you read it, would like to know what you think. Hopefully I'm not over hyping it but I loved it. Hope the whole series is great with a fantastic ending.
