Fire Pro Wrestling R

[Gabriel]

I got curious today and checked out some videos and screen shots. And it looks pretty decent. Does the game come in English or is it all in Japanese?

[EWRFan]

Do anyone know a good CAW site? Since I will be playing this on a PS3 I dont think there is a way for me to get the real life updates, unless someone uploads a copy of their emulated PS2 memory card with the save file in it or something.

[Meacon Keaton]

This is bullshit. I've always wanted to play this series and my PS2 crapped out on me just last week. Lame. I'm going to avoid this thread so my sorry ass doesn't go out and buy a used PS2 just for this one game.

[BlackFlagg]

Sweet, my copy came in today! Amazon really went a bit overboard on the packaging though, it was in a box about 10x to big for it, the whole time opening it I was trying to remember if I had ordered anything else from there recently, heh

Played it last night, my buddy got his, mine would be here tomorrow, but with Thanksgiving, I probably won't get it till Friday. Best wrestling game I have ever played, period.

Two words: Canadian Destroyer.

[Gabriel]

Bah, god dammit.

Amazon.ca said that I'd have it before Christmas... so I cancelled my order. Then I try to order it from EBGames.com, and they tell me that they can't send it to Canada. Same as Amazon.com. What the fuck?

At this rate, I am never going to get this fucking game! :thumbsdown:

[BlackFlagg]

haven't gotten my first win yet, but getting better, had a nice near 8 minute match with Samoa Joe against CM Punk, at the end kicked out of a big move at 2.9 secs only for him to pick me up and hit the Go 2 Sleep to finish me off.

[ravenjuice]

No one else has any right to complain about not having the game yet. I live in the UK and I'm dying to get my hands on this All I have is a dodgy japanese copy for the dreamcast.

[apsham]

I called my EB Games and they said they JUST got a shipment in, so I jumped on the bus and headed down.

They only had FOUR copies.

And yeah... the manual is ALL in French.

['That Guy']

Just called my local EB games. They have it, will pick it up before work tonight. This shift is gonna suck.

[Gabriel]

Just sent my sister to EB Games...

I sent my PS2 copy of NHL 08 with her too... so I'm getting that on X Box 360, which should be better.

I hope they have Fire Pro in, otherwise I'll be a little down, but the Japanese food she's bringing back and NHL 08 on 360 should raise my spirits.

I was too lazy to call in and see if they had it... so I just sent her down with my bank card.

[apsham]

I need a renaming guide... the one on Gamefaqs doesnt seem to have sense.

[Gabriel]

From what I hear, the renaming guides on the internet are completely balls.

It's probably easier to just rename all the guys you can pick out right away and leave the ones you don't know until a better list comes out.

In fact, I think we should make a list of our own.

example: So and So = KENTA

A list, of all the wrestlers already in the game.

Ugh... my sister called, and EB Games doesn't have it... she's going to check CD Plus for me, because she owes me huge. I don't understand really, I mean... I can't order it from anywhere, and nowhere in the area seems to have the game.

[JoeMimic]

This game is crazy! The demand has exceeded the supply and hopefully this leads to another updated US release of Fire Pro. I actually originally ordered from Buy.com didn't like the answer I got when I ordered overnight so I went through Amazon. Got Amazon's on Monday and tried to cancel Buy.com's right after I ordered it but it ended up coming on Tuesday so I sold it for retail to a friend on a forum I goto even though they're selling for upwards of $40 on Ebay. I also hit my first critical last night landing a Tombstone with the Undertaker on Booker T. NOW CAN YOU DIG THAT....Well you fill in the rest...
