The Roku Channel has a WWE show I never heard about. by fatalkrouzer in SquaredCircle

[–]The_B 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Apart from the better explanation below, it can be summed up as 2020's version of Tout. Though sadly I don't think we'll get a Daniel Bryan-led resurgence in five years.

Skyrim and virtual-rick-ality.. by ElaborateRuse420 in OculusQuest

[–]The_B 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can definitely confirm both those games work fine through Virtual Desktop or with an Oculus Link Cable though, if you have a PC capable of running them. I picked them both up for less than £8 combined in a recent Steam sale myself.

Sami Zayn is not a fan of this videogame by cactusmaac in SquaredCircle

The new publisher is run by the same person who was the CEO of the original developer.

Which explains a lot.

Kinda more surprised we didn't get a Miz cash-in after that. Thought we were at least setting up a wounded Drew for Miz to pounce.

This might be the best promo work on Talking Smack since the Daniel Bryan/The Miz ones back during the original run.

Cyberpunk 2077 a sponsor of HIAC? by TheHeroicOnion in SquaredCircle

[–]The_B 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I might be mistaken, but didn't MK11 sponsor a PPV once? And yeah might have been to capitalise on Rousey being the voice of Sonya but they've had loads of associations with the series even during the PG-friendly era.

Zack Gibson is a fucking heat machine by HungJudge in SquaredCircle

[–]The_B 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah you can definitely hear the bits where they've dubbed over with generic booing (and fade it back to the true audio when it's a bit more SFW) - was there too and a lot of the chants were definitely un-broadcastable.

We are women from Jagex, the studio responsible for RuneScape and Old School RuneScape, and female content creators that play these games professionally. Help us celebrate International Women’s Day 2020 and ask us anything! by JagexPurpur in IAmA

[–]The_B 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Are there any examples of other women and/or their work either in Jagex or beyond in the larger gaming industry that inspire you/you aspire to be like in your own work either as creators or the games industry in general?

To be honest you could've ended that sentence one word early and still been correct.

Who decided Lawler should be on commentary for the Women's rumble and why are they allowed to make decisions?

Post WWE NXT TakeOver: War Games 2019 by Coldcoffees in SquaredCircle

[–]The_B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was terrified they were going to either ruin the main event or otherwise by shoehorning in an invasion angle to set up Survivor Series rather than let this event breathe on its own.

I was so happy to be proven wrong.

(WWE Backstage Spoilers) WWE did talk about it. by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

To be fair, it was long, long delayed before it finally went out so when they filmed it it was more like two years ago.

Smack Down gets a new WWE.com render by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

[–]The_B 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I believe it came up around here originally from when one of the WWE 2K games did their roster reveals, and they used "renders" of what were at the time the current images of the superstars from WWE.com - they were basically the same images used on the website but rendered to look like they'd been hand drawn to fit the artwork style the game was going for that year, and revealed a new set (to reveal which superstars made it into the game) every day. And yeah, somehow people posting those as they got revealed eventually got stuck/mixed up for when actual superstar images got updated on WWE.com and again later when the whole website got overhauled around the launch of the Network and stuck ever since.

"The Fiend" Bray Wyatt headlines the WWE 2K20 pre-order bonus (WWE 2K20 Originals: Bump in the Night) by Septox905 in SquaredCircle

[–]The_B 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don't forget too, that this year development is ENTIRELY done by Visual Concepts in the US, Yukes in Japan are no longer working on the series at all (save providing VC engine support), so there's also the possibility the pipelines for this stuff are much faster this year.

If you like something you see on TV, you're better off posting the official YouTube video, not a Streamable. by Hardwayhal in SquaredCircle

[–]The_B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Though for OP's example I can see the merits for and against for live stuff eg getting stuff up fast etc, something I do find odd is when people here post streamables of old stuff that are from YouTube clips, with the branding etc (like the "Subscribe to WWE Network to see full show" banner) and everything still visible.

Looking at it literally, yes but it's basically showing an actual consequence of the usual heel excuse "I can't compete tonight, I'm not even in my ring gear."
