UFC 129 - Georges St-Pierre (c) vs. Jake Shields

  • 2 weeks later...

that's insane, this is clearly going to be the biggest PPV of year maybe ever!

Live gate, sure. PPV results.... hummm. Don't know. Even Bones vs Shogun did just OK on the PPV front. Lesnar vs JDS will probably sell more PPV even if the card isn't as stacked (from a MMA-as-sport perspective).

OMG CAN'T WAIT!

Got the event ordered, sitting at work now just waiting to go home. Have a bunch of people coming over to see GSP defend his title!

I gots to cheer the under dog on...I always do in the hope that not everything goes by the script :p

Are you going to cheer for Okami as well? After seeing what GSP did to Koscheck's eye and since Jake Shields doesn't have good striking skills (which is odd considering he trains with Nick Diaz) and is at his best at MW, I just don't see it going his way.

I was cheering for Belfort but yeah we all know how that went....I live in the belief that UFC is sometimes unpredictable and that Shields could somehow find a way but yeah its 85% sure GSP will pwn him.

Main Card

* Welterweight Championship bout: Georges St-Pierre (c) vs. Jake Shields

* Featherweight Championship bout: José Aldo © vs. Mark Hominick

* Light Heavyweight bout: Randy Couture vs. Lyoto Machida

* Lightweight bout: Mark Bocek vs. Ben Henderson

Preliminary Card

* Welterweight bout: Nate Diaz vs. Rory MacDonald

* Welterweight bout: Sean Pierson vs. Brian Foster

* Featherweight bout: Yves Jabouin vs. Pablo Garza

* Welterweight bout: Claude Patrick vs. Daniel Roberts

* Bantamweight bout: Ivan Menjivar vs. Charlie Valencia

* Middleweight bout: Jason MacDonald vs. Ryan Jensen

* Lightweight bout: John Makdessi vs. Kyle Watson

those are my predictions. poor hominick is gonna die...

also the main event is gonna go 5 rounds and it's going to be boring...

I predict Jake Shields to win via rear naked choke in Round 2. Well, I hope for this...haha. I think it is possible. Down with GSP!

Possible? Sure. But if Jake ends up winning and if it is by submission, I doubt it will be with something as dominating as a RNC. An sneaky armbar or triangle would be more likely.

    • Thanks, Sony and Nintendo, you effectively killed platform-agnostic gaming. Long gone are the days when you could wish to play a specific game on whatever platform you were. Now, you have to buy the hardware just to play that single game. What, you're only interested in THAT game and nothing more? Bad luck, suck it and buy our console.
    • The AI data centers need it more than us so...let them gobble it all up at that price!
    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
    • This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
