This past week, I've completed The World Ends With You (handheld game of the year) and Super Mario Galaxy, thanks to Gamefly. Those are two great Nintendo games. I wish I could have fully completed SMG, but I really wanted to rent something else. TWEWY was a very innovative game and it's my pick for handheld GOTY. Now that those are beaten, I have a total of 4 games completed this summer along with The Godfather and Zack & Wiki. I'm now working on Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 and Just Cause, both from GF. DBZ is an awesome fighting game, but I hate the Wiimote and Nunchuk controls. I like the Gamecube controller much better. It feels more like a fighting game with it. I also love the Dragon History. It lets me recall classic DBZ moments. I'm only up to the Android Saga so I'm sure I'll get to the Buu saga in no time. After that, it's unknown territory for me. I stopped watching the series there, so I want to see what I missed.
WWE is messing up. Triple H VS The Great Khali at SummerSlam? Yeah, that's the best decision with people like Jeff Hardy, MVP, Umaga, and Kennedy who all could've gotten title shots. IMO, they should have done HHH VS Hardy even though that fought at Armageddon last year. That would be a far more entertaining match than what they decided to do. He hasn't been on TV for a while and then out of nowhere, he gets a title shot? That's messed up to the established wrestlers on SD who deserve a shot at the gold. I do like that they changed the ECW Title though. It now looks like a World Championship, instead of a child's belt. Matt Hardy VS Mark Henry won't be pretty, but I'm looking forward to see if they'll put the gold on Matt. It only makes sense since he'll have more contenders to fight than Mark does. He can face Morrison, The Miz, Finlay, and even Evan Bourne. The future is looking bright for ECW. Over on Raw though, all hell is breaking loose. There is no GM, so people are going around just demanding title shots. For example, JBL thinks he should be the #1 contender against Punk, which he shouldn't. They already fought the Raw where Punk became champion, so he's out. Batista, Kane, and John Cena are all confusing the hell out of me too. Batista wants to fight Kane, since he cost him the title, but now it looks like he also wants to face John Cena after a accidental shot to the face. What I want to happen is Batista to face Kane on a Raw, so they get their beef handled, then Batista goes on to face John Cena at SS. I hope JBL gets injured and can't wrestle for a year so he won't stink up Raw and I would have Orton return to win the title. If Orton doesn't return, Kane deserves the shot and he should win.
So, this would be MY Summerslam card:
Edge VS Undertaker - Hell In A Cell - That's the only smart move WWE has made for this event
Triple H VS Jeff Hardy- WWE Title - That's not going to happen.
CM Punk VS Randy Orton (or Kane) - World Title - It's better for a face to chase a heel for the title.
John Cena VS Batista - This is a match I've wanted to see for a while and I think it has the potential to be a show stealer.
Cryme Tyme VS The Young Guns - World Tag Titles - It makes sense since they beefing.
We'll see what happens in the following weeks

Bored as hell...
Man, I'm bored! Even though I have a bunch of games to play, I'm still bored. Hopefully, my friend can come up and chill with me for the weekend so I can have something to do. Well, anyway, Punk VS Batista at the Bash for the World Title. I don't know about you, but I'm not feeling that match up. Cena VS Punk is something I'd like to see because I've never seen too many bad Cena matches. Sure, he can't wrestle, but I enjoy watching his matches.
I was looking through my games today when I saw Alundra, an action/platformer for the Playstation. It's very similar to The Legend of Zelda, but a lot harder. When I first played Alundra, I was 7 or 8 and it not only scared the hell out of me, it made me angry. It scared me because the main character, Alundra, can go into people's nightmares and cure them, except for this one time where he goes in and couldn't save the guy so he dies in his dream! I couldn't sleep for days after that. The puzzles in this game were too much for me at the time also. Another thing is that the game is very depressing. SPOILER ALERT, I guess: Mostly everyone close to Alundra eventually die. There's a graveyard in the beginning of the game next to the church and there are about 8 plot holes that aren't filled. Get the point? It's a very deep and dark game.
That's it for today

First Post
Yo what's going on! My name is Marcus Stephens for anyone just reading this and I'm a pro wrestling and video game fan! (What a combination; you know I got no life!) This blog will probably never be read but I just wanted to get my feelings out in a blog.
Being a wrestling fan, I watch WWE all the the time. Current favorite wrestlers are Randy Orton, Edge, Triple H, Kofi Kingston, CM Punk, Cody Rhodes and Ted Dibiase (sp?). Man, what a week in WWE it was. Kofi, Mark Henry, the Cody and Ted, and CM Punk all won championship gold. CM Punk was by far the shocker of last week. I had no idea Punk would be the one to bring a World title to Raw, but he did! Now, hopefully he won't drop it to Cena just yet. That would suck if he had a 20 day title reign to the GAB. Onto SD!, Edge VS HHH at GAB. What a match that will be. Those two haven't fought each other in years and now the two best names on SD! fight it out for the richest prize in the business. I'm backing Edge to win so he can continue his feud with The Undertaker and then maybe Undertaker will change the darn belt design to normal! Seriously, that title design is played out!
Ok, now to games! So far this summer, I've beaten Zack and Wiki: Quest for Barbaros Treasure and The Godfather: The Game. Out of the two, The Godfather was the more lengthy adventure, (took me 31 hours to be completely bored with it) but Zack and Wiki made me think. The next games I want to beat would be The World Ends With You (if I can pick the game up again! I haven't played it in two weeks!), Super Mario Galaxy, Chaos Wars, Burnout Dominator, and Persona 3: FES. Speaking of P3: FES, how about Persona 4 being announced for this year! Just barely this year, but the game will be released December 9th, 2008, just before Christmas. My only complain so far is that the game looks too much like P3. It looks like an expansion pak more than a stand alone sequel to me. Hey, but I'm happy to get it and it only has a $40 dollar price tag!
Well, that's all I want it my first post. Hopefully someone will read this and say, That FatmanStephens is something else! Until next time.
