    WWE Halloween Event Produces More Believable Lara Croft

    Thank goodness for MTV's Stephen Totilo's love of pro wrestling. Without it, we never would have heard about how Lara Croft triumphed over countless female wrestlers during this past weekend's WWE Cyber Sunday pay-per-view event. Mickie James represented gamers everywhere with her dark take on the Tomb Raider star, taking top honors in the competition, which featured the entire inventory of the slutty section of your local holiday costume store.

    TNA Impact! Review: Squandering Potential

    Nearly a year ago I attended an event put on by Midway here in Atlanta to introduce the press to their new wrestling title, TNA Impact!, based on the Total Nonstop Action Wrestling promotion founded back in 2002 by wrestling father and son Jerry and Jeff Jarett. After a lengthy hands-on with the game I made the following proclamation: "Once all the moves are finished and the stadiums are complete, it truly has a chance at being one of the best wrestling video games of all time." Well now the game has been released and I've spent a large chunk of time getting pounded into the canvas by the likes of AJ Styles and Samoa Joe to see if Midway grabbed at that chance or got knocked out of the ring by their own ambition.

    Here's A Wrestling Game For You TNA Fans

    Growing up in the mid-80’s, I was such a big pro wrestling fan that I had everything, including my styrofoam Hacksaw Jim Duggan 2X4 and my Brett Hart sunglasses. I thought I was such a badass. I eventually grew out if it, but like most, came back during the renaissance in the late 90’s. I was totally nWo 4 life brotha’. But I once more lost interest and haven’t watched wrestling seriously in about 10 years, so I had no idea what TNA was when I went to check out TNA iMPACT! today. More »

    Midway Gamer's Day '08: TNA Impact

    Despite my penchant for sweaty muscle men rolling around on the floor grappling each other, I've never really liked wrestling games. They are a little too slow for me and I much prefer the fast pace of a Soul Calibur over the lumbering likes of WWF. That said, what I saw of Midway's TNA Impact left me walking away a fan and quite impressed. More »

    Wrestler's Gaming Column is a Rambling Mess

    TNA Impact's Motion Capture

    Along with the trailer and gameplay footage of their new wrestling game, TNA Impact, Midway also showed this featurette on the motion capture involved in creating the title. As you can probably tell from the video, the wrestlers are having one hell of a good time participating, though several of them mentioned in performing moves the generally only have to pull off during matches that run a half-hour tops for hours at a time was a bit on the grueling side. I can only imagine.

    A Little Bit of TNA

    Pro wrestling. To some it is the subject of jokes and ridicule, thought of as a sport enjoyed by hicks and dimwits. To others it is a source of endless entertainment...those who appreciate the sport for the sheer entertainment value. Yes, there are even those today who fully buy into the fantasy, hanging on the edge of their seats at every opportunity, idolizing their heroes and despising their villains with fanatical devotion. No matter how you feel about pro wrestling, you have to agree that it's popular all over the world, and wherever you find a huge, dedicated fan base, you're likely to find a video game attached to it. This past weekend, Midway and TNA Wrestling held a press event to unveil the first video game based on the fledgling but increasingly popular wrestling organization, TNA Impact!. Video game and wrestling press flew in from all over the world for a chance to play the new title...except for me. More »

    TNA Impact! Wrestling

    I went into Midway's Atlanta TNA Impact! wrestling event fully expecting to be underwhelmed by the game. After all, the current an previous gen offerings haven't exactly been the best the sport had to offer the video game world. I fully believed that wrestling games had reached their peak during the heyday of Wrestlemania 2000. Well after spending some time playing through Midway's new baby on the Xbox 360, I am pleased to discovery that I might have been wrong on that point. The game strikes a very satisfying balance between gameplay, graphics, and animation that I've not witnessed in the genre for quite some time. More »

    Over the weekend I attended an event in my own hometown of Atlanta, during which Midway unveiled what could very well end up being the best wrestling video game since the N64 days. I'll tell you more tomorrow in my feature on the event, where I got up close and personal with both the wrestling talent and the game, but for now marvel at Midway's TNA Impact, heading to the PS2, Wii, Xbox 360 and PS3 next spring.

Not much to say about this one other than I hope you enjoy this little bit of olde fashioned Christmas Eve dominatrix wrestler action. Honestly, though, as I watch it, all I can think of is this.
