QOTD 174: Same Name Game
So, Blog Otters, one of my favorite games to play with folks while on a bus or road trip or while we can’t do anything else, is to play the same name game – which I cribbed from Cougar Town. So, lets play it!
Combine movie titles into silly, dumb, insane names that conjure up an idea of possibly the best worst movie ever.
For example: Iron Man + Man On Fire = Iron Man on Fire
The 40 Year Old Virgin + The Virgin Suicides = The 40 Year Old Virgin Suicides
And so on. You can do it for music, games, TV shows, whatever. Bonus points if you come up with a silly plot involving BODers!

$15 Survivor Series Game
Oooh, here’s a cool one I found on Facebook. You’ve got $15 to spend…who’s your dream Survivor Series 5 man team? I’m gonna have to go with Austin, Savage, Roberts, Perfect and Eddie…Team DTA!
Questions on playing the long game.
1) Is there a correct way to do a year-long build to a match?
2) How long is too long to build up a single match?
3) When do you think feuds culminating in Mania matches should begin, ideally?
QOTD 124: You Are the Game…I really really want to play you.
Lets talk about video games! As you all certainly know in addition to cultivating this C+ player of a daily feature, I write about video games in my spare time – though oddly, otters, the QOTD hasn’t really featured them all that much.
Thus:
Whatcyha been playing, interactive media wise, lately?
What’s your favorite game of all time?
Least favorite that everyone else seems to love?
What game have you played the most, for the longest period of time? (it’s WoW isn’t it! You know its WoW!

Post Smackdown Video Game Streaming
Hey there guys, if you need something to do after Smackdown tonight. I’m streaming again over on Twitch TV if you’re up for watching some simmed Fire Pro Wrestling Returns matches. Originally I had plans to sim extreme rules in WWE 13, but apparently the servers are down and I couldn’t download creations for the shield.
Here’s the link if you’re so interested.
Pro Wrestling X PC game (Kickstarter fund)
Worth checking out. A Kickstarter fund for a wrestling game for the PC that Lance Storm's helping with, and one of the main guys from No Mercy has pledged on.
Apparently they want to make it very customisable and base it around No Mercy.
At first impressions, it doesn't look great from the video. But they said some of the money will be used to re-do artwork and animation, so that's fair.
Looks interesting!
Three Hour Raw Drinking Game!
———- Tommy Wiseau from the blog here… Thought this might be a fun little exercise for the blog. Since it seemingly feels as if the WWE is turning into WCW everyday, I felt nostalgic and had a look at the DDTDigest and noticed their WCW drinking games and thought we could work out a modern one to help us get through these three hour Raws much like they did to get them through three hour Nitros… http://www.ddtdigest.com/features/drnk1998.htm
http://www.ddtdigest.com/features/drnk2000.htm To start with the obvious stuff… – take a drink every time a match ends will a roll-up following a distraction by a guest commentator or a WWE SUPERSTAR coming out to the ramp (complete with theme music)
– chug if the match has lasted less than 3 minutes.
– take a drink every time Michael Cole says VINTAGE
– take a drink every time a secondary champion loses a match
– take a drink every time two WWE SUPERSTARS who apparently cannot stand the sight of each other manage to talk to each other in the middle of the ring for a prolonged period of time.
– CHUG if a divas match goes off without a botch. You guys take it from here… ——————— Every video package of something that happened earlier in the show.
The Game
Scott,
Sorry for the 2nd question within a week but the blog response on my precious HBK question really needed some follow up (I'm sure you've explained this but I couldn't find it in your blog)…I know the Internet wrestling community hates HHH but looking at his career objectively he's an all-time great. He's had a plethora of 4+ star matches, an insane amount of good money drawing feuds (Rock, Foley, HBK, Angle, Batista, UT, Austin, etc.), not to mention significant events he's been involved with (marrying Steph angle, DX, etc). Yea, I know that he hasn't always put people over when needed but he's been a top level player when WWE/F has at their pinnacle. Any profession is going to be littered with politics and I can't say I really blame the guy for trying to keep his top spot and make the big bucks. Is what he did really any worse then what other top level guts have done through history. What am I missing with the HHH bashing? Please fill me in. Thanks
PS. Yea marrying Steph looks shady but who are we to say and speculate as to why? I think that anyone who says it was strictly to keep himself elevated shouldnt speculate.
Heat/Celtics Game 7 Open Thread
Seems like this one keeps popping up in other discussions so I figure we might as well give some NBA talk it’s own space.
FWIW I’ve been pulling for OKC since the Knicks went out but I’d like to see Miami fall on their face again this year.

Hey Scott, I’ve been working on a retro wrestling video game review series for a few months, found athttp://www.youtube.com/mikeandtompresent. We’ve already covered a lot of the classic (and not-so-classic) games of the 8-bit, 16-bit, and arcade era, and we’ll be hitting the N64 games soon. In honor of the new Wrestlefest remake, here’s a review of the original: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTs7ygQV84M
I’ve actually been following your reviews on The W and I’m a big fan, in fact. And speaking of WWE Wrestlefest, here’s the video of the new version for anyone who would like to avoid it:
