| 3052 | Article | Vaporman87 | What a great list! The Beach Boys are one of those bands that transcends time and changing sounds. They're one of the greatest bands of all time in my opinion. Anyone of any taste in music can find at least one song of theirs that they find appealing, and that's hard to accomplish. Thanks for this Poshy. | Oct 30, 2015 |  | |
| 3054 | Article | Vaporman87 | What an epic rundown! I can SOOOO relate to your thoughts here, as I too was finding myself "back into" wrestling around this time, and it was mostly a result of the AKI games. To this day, I still don't believe there is any better gameplay system for wrestling games than that achieved by AKI. The grapple system was just superior, and easy to use. Maybe the graphics were a bit less realistic, but each wrestler had that "He-Man" feel, where each was molded from the same basic body (though height and weight were still represented), and that gave the game a cohesive look. once No Mercy came out, they had really pushed it to the limit and made the fun of playing a very long lasting experience. I loved creating my own wrestler, intro, and move set, and then taking that character from zero to hero. But it was also fun to just use them in crazy match types and watch the chaos ensue. I know for a fact that when you got four people together in the room playing each other, crazy things would happen that would make you laugh so hard your sides hurt. So much fun. We actually owned a device for the N64 that allowed us to play Japanese releases, and one of those releases was Virtual Pro Wrestling 64 (the Japanese counterpart of WCW/nWo World Tour). There were subtle differences in some of the characters, moves, and such, but the biggest difference was the roster selection. It included American and Japanese wrestling legends, and that made it very cool. You could also change and customize wrestlers' attire, which you could not do until later releases in America. <img src="/images/postImages/1446222908Virtual Pro Wrestling 64.png"> | A Look Back at the Nintendo 64 Wrestling Games | Oct 30, 2015 | |
| 3055 | Article | onipar | Such a great article! I actually missed the whole n64 craze (as well as wrestling). I stopped playing video games altogether after the Genesis, and really didn't dip my toes back in until Xbox360/PS3. The funny thing is, I currently have several N64 systems and most of those wrestling games sitting around my place right now. :-) | A Look Back at the Nintendo 64 Wrestling Games | Oct 30, 2015 | |
| 3056 | Article | Mr Magic | I mostly played wrestling games on the PS1 back in those days, but I remember playing some good ones on N64 like No Mercy, Wrestlemania 2000, and Revenge. | A Look Back at the Nintendo 64 Wrestling Games | Oct 30, 2015 | |
| 3057 | Article | echidna64 | There are so many great Beach Boys songs- Surfer Girl, Good Vibrations, California Girls, etc. One of my favorites is Forever which interestingly enough was also featured on the TV show Full House. John Stamos was a big Beach Boys fan and I believe he even went on tour with them. | Top 10 Beach Boys Songs | Oct 30, 2015 | |
| 3058 | Article | comic_book_fan | revenge was my game at the time i was a bigger wcw fan anyway i remember it was the day after christmas and my friend invited me up he got both wrestling games he got warzone for playstation and it looked better and the create a wrestler was awesome at the time once we tried it out i thought it was great but once we started playing revenge i was hooked i played for hours i didn't want to go home each time we played it would be harder to pull myself away from it at one point i borrowed my friend n64 and that game played until 2am and went to school the next day faked sick so i could come home early and play it my friend was completely cool with me keeping his n64 up at my house because he was up at my house so much but my mom made me give it back to him because i gained like 15 pounds because i was not getting any exercise like i usually did and she found out i was faking sick to cut school to play and i kept telling my teachers how awesome it was for the better part of a year i was completely addicted to that game | A Look Back at the Nintendo 64 Wrestling Games | Oct 31, 2015 | |
| 3059 | Article | vkimo | Revenge and World Tour were me and my brothers most played games together. From the blood pressure grapple button tapping to the finishers. | A Look Back at the Nintendo 64 Wrestling Games | Oct 31, 2015 | |

| 3061 | Article | Vaporman87 | My parents were not concerned with what I watched growing up, so long as they knew it didn't contain nudity. And even so, I still somehow managed to see the occasional slip of some skin in some major film releases. And today, I don't see that as a good thing. In fact, it's pretty disappointing to me that my parents didn't care enough to restrict what I was seeing. Maybe some think that they really had it made if they shared a similar childhood stripped of too many restrictions on movies. But I don't feel that way. I feel like my parents neglected to attempt to teach me some very important lessons that arise from watching certain things. In short, I didn't (and in some ways, still don't) feel like I was important enough to them to make an effort. Now that I'm a father, I make every attempt to avoid watching rated R movies. The only exposure to questionable content that I have allowed myself to experience has been in the form of games, like Watchdogs and Fallout 3. And even then, I hate that I have to see and hear certain things in order to enjoy the games as a whole. I want my kids to grow up knowing that I cared enough to restrict what they saw, because I wanted them protected and wanted them to make adult choices when it comes to what they see. There are certain things that kids are responsible enough to make choices with, but film choice is not among them. Given too much freedom, bad choices will eventually be made and their mental and emotional health can suffer. I know mine did. I was more frightened and confused as a child than I could have been, many times because of things I watched. Had I not seen certain things, I know that I would have felt less nervous and concerned about death and sexuality. I'm not going to allow that to happen to my own children. | Rated R for RAD | Nov 02, 2015 | |
| 3062 | Article | Draven | We never had the Disney channel. I watched it on ABC on Saturday mornings and before we even had a VCR I used to record the show on my cassette recorder/player so I could sing the songs again later. I had a huge crush on Stacy! I don't remember watching it after around 1988 so that's why I don't remember any of the newer players like Jennifer Love Hewatt. It definitely got me into singing! | KIDS, Incorporated: Dreams Come True | Nov 02, 2015 | |
