Apologies for the abrupt disappearance everyone.....DropBox wasn't syncing correctly so I'm reinstalling it as I'm typing this.

As far as the old stuff goes, I had to have a clear-out of my HD because the amount of stuff sitting in dusty corners was affecting my laptop's performance something rotten. (It's....what, 12 years old now? For reference, I went from 2GB of free space back to about 80GB of free space.) Unfortunately, none of the old (WWE game) videos are available now.

That said, I might as well reveal what I had planned.

I don't know if any of you have heard of a game series called Fire Pro Wrestling before, but please allow me to explain. Fire Pro is a 2D wrestling game played from an isometric, not-quite-bird's-eye perspective. Might sound simple, but the amount of detail and, well.... content puts all of WWE's recent games to shame.

For example: The PlayStation 4 version of WWE 2K15 (NEXT-GEN! WOO!) has a roster of 75 characters (including DLC), and space for 25 Custom Characters.

Fire Pro Returns (the only PS2 game in the series to make it to Europe) on the other hand, has a roster of 327 characters from various wrestling promotions (WWE, WCW, New Japan, etc.) and space for 500 custom characters. Like this one, for example:

Even the match options are better. Example?

- WWE 2K15 has, at best, a Tables, Ladders & Chairs match involving six people.
- Fire Pro? 8-man (or woman), barbed-wire rope, exploding ring, landmine deathmatch. And yes, that does mean that actual landmines are scattered in and around the ring.

Oh, and one last thing for you to watch, for now. The footage was recorded by someone else (my copy hasn't arrived yet. The PAL release only came out in Italy.), but here's an example of Fire Pro gameplay. Enjoy!

TL;DR: Getting Fire Pro Returns. Gonna hold off on requests until I figure out how the Creations system works, then I'll have 500 slots to fill.

You had me at exploding ring, landmine deathmatch.

WE. ARE. BACK.

Not much to say about this one....other than that DrWilyII is [tornado-fang]ing insane. Just....watch some of the stuff he gets up to in the match. You'll see.

Oh, and apologies for the constant snickering in the background. I found some of it rather amusing.

Triple Threat Match - Claire Redfield vs DrWilyII vs Blanka

Also, requests are open. 497 slots to fill.

OP updated to include the three characters in this match.

Emjoy!

Mmm... Sounds delicious to watch later.

Also, should be obvious who I'm going to request again.

Nothing remotely Aile-related, I'm sure.

Here you go, Doc. It's ZXA Aile, though the ponytail's too small to be readily visible unless she's standing still.

Her Profile. No, I'm not sorry.

... Wow. I can breathe fireballs!

Phi · **Reply #432 on:** July 10, 2015, 09:08:28 PM

I have 4 requests:

- Phi

- Pema (if possible, I know she can be tricky to get right)

- Akane
[spoiler]

[/spoiler]

- Sigma
[spoiler]

Strider Xhaiden · **Reply #433 on:** July 10, 2015, 11:22:03 PM

Did the best I could. The game doesn't actually allow for things like skirts/dresses/long coats. I think it's because it'd be hard to animate certain moves if both the characters' legs weren't completely visible.

Due to this, Pema wasn't doable, and I had to make some adjustments to both Phi and Akane (Akane's hair isn't great, but I tried.)

Hopefully, you like what I managed to do. And by way of an apology for not being able to make Pema, I did something else instead. Hope it makes up for not being able to fulfill all of your requests

Also, you may have noticed I try to make at least one pun or joke in every character's profile. If you want me to stop, just say so.

Without further ado....

Phi's Profile
Akane's Profile
Sigma's Profile

All four of the new characters in the pre-match screen

OP has been updated, too. And again, sorry I couldn't completely manage everything you asked of me...

Sigma's last name is kind of a spoiler, but that's fine. Really awesome job on him.

With the limitations the game gives you, everyone looks as good as they could possibly be. Thanks!
