I'd say that's a good price and also, a good stick! I have one which I think I bought off Hearthly? I use it on my PC for emulators although, I'm thinking of getting a Wii to USB dongle thingy so that I can use my Wii Snes pad on my PC. I like that pad a lot.

<14.99> Fire Pro Wrestling Word (Steam).

I always wanted to get into the Fire Pro Wrestling games, but the best ones always seemed to be Japanese-only.



Considering the game's only been out a couple of days, it would seem the Steam workshop already has a shedload of custom content -

Is this the first time you've seen a Firepro game? This looks just like all the other versions which admittedly, aren't the best lookers. The nuance is in the game play which is brilliant. It's all about timing and tactics.

I think I shall have to get this!

I think you'll love it. My problem with the games in the past is that I've never really known how to play them properly, but I've just gone through the tutorial missions and I'm away. Downloaded a few of the custom-made wrestlers from Steam and just had a match with me as the Ultimate Warrior against Big Daddy.

I wasn't talking about the graphics (remember I still cheerfully fire MAME up on a regular basis to play 30+ year old arcade games :D), but that looks like The Main Event (Konami arcade wrestling game) or something to me.

It's not dissimilar to The Main Event or Wrestlefest etc., but it's basically those games with lots of extra gameplay and customisation. I think the fact that they're more about timing than mashing buttons.

A valid question. It's kinda aspirational, it'll be a reward to myself for finally killing all the zeds.

Um... I'm quite interested, actually.

£600 is a good price for that cabinet and all the consoles, and it's a right bargain when you consider the cost of the TV and sound bar.

Hmmm. How long do you think it would take to make that, paint it and add the lights? Now factor in making a living? I'm assuming you get paid more than £75 a day for being a corporate whore so you can do the maths...

There were codes to get it down to £34.99 at Amazon and I had £2 credit
