  1. More info about the fight between CM Punk, Ace Steel, The Bucks, and Kenny Omega after All Out. The fight apparently lasted for about 5-6 minutes according to those in the backstage area at the time. The altercation involved CM Punk throwing punches, Nick Jackson getting hit in the eye with a chair, and Ace Steel biting Kenny Omega. Initial reports stated that the local police were called, but the local police have refuted that by saying they were not called to deal with any backstage altercation. The fallout from All Out is going to be something else and who Tony Khan sides with may have huge ramifications for the company going forward.
  2. I feel its 100% a shoot as he's not in a program with Hangman or The Elite, while Tony Khan told Cabana to pack his bags and go to ROH, so these comments aren't even to start a program with Cabana either. CM Punk is pissed off that those that sided with Cabana have been unprofessional in their conduct and he vented those frustrations in an unprofessional way. I don't think there is more to it than that and Tony Khan has a lot of work to do to put out this fire. Not sure what will happen in the fallout from this. I don't know how Tony Khan settles this with everyone coming away happy. It's an awkward situation as The Elite need to be more professional as EVPs, while CM Punk needs to be more aware that his actions impact those around him both positively and negatively.
  3. Credit to Stevie for finally putting his career ahead of keeping the Scottish word removed in midfield happy. We were much better without him on the pitch, which is something most fans had been calling for. This is a good step in the right direction, but we really need to start getting some wins now.
  4. This is the stopgap release while they put the finishing touches on Assassins Creed Infinity (set for 2024) which is the online live service endless content game. It's cool to see them going back to basics, but I would advise that people take this as a one and done because I don't think the plan is for the RPG systems to be dropped permanently. Unless it sells very well and then plans may change.
  5. Gerrard needs to go ASAP. I don't even care who we replace him with as I feel like almost any manager in the game right now could get a tune out of this squad. We don't have a bad squad, we don't have bad players, but we lack a manager that knows what he's doing.
  6. I was surprised at that too which makes me think this price increase is permanent, and may even be the first of many if the cost of materials continues to increase.
  7. Get the **** out, Gerrard. 3 points from 4 games, but we all know it's going to be 3 points from 6 regardless of who is in charge. This absolute fraud has thrown away a very important 12 points as the harder games start now.
  8. Seems to be the pattern with regards to Buendia that he gets his start in a game where we're set up completely wrong, we play like absolute shit and then he's benched for half a dozen games despite the fact he didn't do much wrong.
  9. For those that missed the news because Sony made sure to not tweet it out, or make any fanfare about it at all. The PS5 is now £479.99 in the UK (£30 increase) and €549.99 in Europe (€50 increase), so to those that haven't got one yet Sony just gave you all the middle finger.
  10. Welcome Sarr. I really hope this is the first of a few new signings as we don't need Sarr, we need a new CM and a new CB. Happy to have Sarr here, but it's hard to be excited about it given it doesn't solve any of our current issues.
  11. I try to look at Aston Villa through an optimistic lens, but I just can't at this point. This is not the start from a team aiming for 7th, this is the start from a team aiming to be firmly relegated by March.
  12. The game is fantastic. I have a few hours in it already and if I wasn't for needing something to eat I'd still be playing now. Roll7 are the masters of nailing the gameplay and this game is no different. Those that want a game that is easy to pick up, but hard to master then Rollerdrome is definitely that game.
  13. Keep in mind an orthopaedic boot can also be used for a bad sprain, or any number of non-achilles based lower leg injuries. If it turns out it is an achilles injury then that's very unfortunate and I wish him a speedy recovery, but until we know more his ankle injury could be literally anything.
  14. I wouldn't say gone to shit. We conceded a very weak goal, but it's more that the game has gone very end to end as Everton scramble to get a point. Had Watkins been more clinical it'd be 3-1 right now. We're still getting plenty of chances.
  15. Gerrard is clueless and reactionary. We lost last week. Why did we lose? We lost to two set piece goals because we had no height in defence. Why did we lack height? The 6ft+ destroyer of Mings was on the bench because the manager has a weak ego. We didn't lose last week because we lacked possession, we had all the possession. We didn't lose last week because we didn't create chances, we had 15 shots on goal (only 2 on target to be fair). Bringing in Mings as a reaction to last week is sound. Changing everything else about the formation after conceding two set piece goals? Doesn't make sense. The way we played last week wasn't great, but 66% possession and 15 shots against many other teams would result in points. He's throwing the baby out with the bathwater in trying to rectify last week.
  16. A quick heads up for anyone wanting to play every Yakuza game though PS+, you will eventually need PS+ Premium. The series is being released in tiers; Yakuza: Like a Dragon is on PS+ Essential, Extra, and Premium right now for the month of August. Yakuza 0, Yakuza Kiwami, and Yakuza Kiwami 2 are coming to PS+ Extra and Premium on August 16th. Yakuza 3 Remastered, Yakuza 4 Remastered, and Yakuza 5 Remastered are launching later this year exclusively for PS+ Premium. Yakuza 6: The Song of Life is launching later this year for PS+ Extra and Premium. So to play the whole series without flat out buying all the games you will need to be on PS+ Premium at some point in the coming months. Sony putting games exclusively into PS+ Premium seems to be the latest strategy to get people to sign up for that tier, even if it means breaking up franchises to do it.
  17. Middling content addition. I mean there is nothing wrong with most of the games being added, it's just harder to get excited about games that have been out for a while, especially games like Wildlands that exist in a 30FPS format as they didn't get a Pro/PS5 patch. Also those that signed up to Premium are getting shafted once again. This is yet another update that doesn't add any PlayStation Classics.
  18. Really not sure what our style is. Gerrard keeps talking about it, but unless our style is to play badly then I don't think the style has been implemented at all. Things need to change at half-time.
  19. The potential good things about this game; AEW: Fight Forever is aiming to be an arcade style wrestling game with WWF No Mercy as its main inspiration. WWF No Mercy being its main inspiration isn't just lip service. The games creative director is Hideyuki Iwashita who was the creative director of WWF No Mercy. The potential bad things; Development hasn't been smooth. Tony Khan (AEW owner) financed some of the game out of his own pocket, while AEW Games and Yuke's have not seen eye to eye over much of the development process. Ultimately Fight Forever will likely feel pretty bare bones when it eventually releases. They do have plans to support the game with DLC to increase the roster size, and add new match types, but this game is going to feel more like a foundation to something a sequel would improve on massively. It'll hopefully be fun though, if a bit limited compared to the modern WWE games.
  20. Feels like EA are treading water and the larger changes will come next year in EA Sports FC.
  21. Not sure. Pikmin 4 has been in development for a while. Miyamoto talked about it in 2015, and even said the game was "very close to completion". Since then absolute silence, so who knows what is happening with that game.
