Wow. Good for those guys. I bought their game. It was good. TEW 2005 is better though.

Serious Parody has announced it has raised a total of £1 million

HOW!?

[King Ellis]

This is why we shouldn't give Scotland freedom, they'll only go out and piss away even more money. I mean, £230,000 to the man who made the Penultimate Warrior? REALLY?

[Lineker]

What.

[Naitch]

Shout out to EWB seven minutes in!

[Guest mr. potato head]

Clearly the next logical step is to branch out into actual wrestling shows, perhaps featuring Rob Van Dam and Christian.

[Summers]

Surely they're now on WWE's radar though.

And according to them EWB are going around the net slating him? I doubt we left our own forum to do that.

Serious Parody has announced it has raised a total of £1 million to establish a new studio based in Dundee, recruiting 18 new staff in the process.

The iOS developer, which recently launched Wrestling Manager (see below) for iPhone and is already based in the Scottish city, raised the majority of the funds from private investors.

A further £230,000 was stumped up by a Scottish Enterprise regional selective assistance grant.

Talent hunt

According to CEO Dan Hinkles, the firm is looking for a "number of highly skilled and highly motivated games professionals" to lead its new Dundee studio.

"The company has a very clear roadmap to success, taking advantage of the transformational changes that have occurred with in the games industry of recent years," added Hinkles.

"We have a number of highly ambitious new projects underway and we already have a ton of talent at the spine of the company with award winning artists and programmers on board. Now we're looking for talented developers who can really help 'raise the bar' for the genres we're working on."

So yeah. Holy fucking shit.

Maybe someone else slated it too? Either way I'd have had far more faith in him if I knew he sounded like one of The Cribs.

[Sousa]

Personally, I went around to every forum on the Internet to slag off on his stupid game. The guys at the official Harry Potter Furry Slashfic Forum were taken aback.

[9 to 5]

I never knew Jukebox Hero was loaded!

[King Ellis]

Wait, people going around on every forum slagging him off?

How about people going around every forum, pretending to be a random new member, only to praise the game to high heaven and go 'lol, you got me' when they ask if they work for said company? What about people writing their own positive reviews for their own games?

Just...*mind assplode*

Tables, ladders and stairs is, and has always been, genius.

Speaking of which, where's your signature? Kaney, a word, please.

Does this mean Brad Harris will eventually become President as well?
