Today's manliest video of manliness: TNA Impact trailer
What is TNA? Trilateral Nuclear Abominations? Trigonometric Narcissists Association? Tits 'n' a ... ah, nevermind, it's Total Nonstop Action Wrestling. And that's just about the best explanation for the TNA Impact trailer, which debuted last night on Spike's VGAs.
We're told wrestling is a very manly sport; however, we don't remember seeing it in Maddox's The Alphabet of Manliness, which is our reference guide for such things. (It should be noted that female wrestling is listed under section 'F.') Video embedded after the break; if in the event there is not enough manliness in the TNA Impact trailer, we've also embedded a video dose of menergy as supplement.

Wow, that second video is really, really disturbing.
Residentevil72501 @ Dec 11th 2007 1:22AM
One of the most horrible looking games i have seen in awhile! And people are honestly excited about this? That was a discrace to act like it was an honor to show it at the VGA!

After seeing that picture, I can't get ACDC's Big Balls out of my head.

great song

With SVR08 being total trash, I had some hope for this game. But after seeing that, it looks terrible.
Nothing will ever really beat HCTP or No Mercy, I guess. (FPR is awesome too though)

Picnicface is awesome.

"With all new flavours like
Manana!
Fizbitch!
And...GUN!"

I'm sorry. TNA will never stand for anything other than Tits 'N Ass. I feel sorry for the brilliant chap who thought otherwise. It's things like this that prove wrestling can't be taken seriously.

You call THAT manly? If I wanted to get a testosterone rush, I'd cocktail Unreal Tournament, Gears of War, Contra, God of War and Guitar Hero.
And many more to the list.
Like Wii Sports: Real Men Wii Standing Up. (forgot which webcomic said that)

tna impact is the first non shooter to use the unreal 3.0 engine
pezman726 @ Dec 11th 2007 7:24AM
Screw TNA, i'm gonna bust out my N64 and play some WCW vs. nWo: World Tour and WCW/nWo Revenge!!! Now those were some great wrestling games!!! Hollywood Hogan FTW!!!
Imadogg @ Dec 11th 2007 9:32AM
All about WWF! No Mercy!
Haha menergy
Sesur @ Dec 11th 2007 7:24AM
This looks gay as hell.
Geist @ Dec 11th 2007 5:48PM
Wrestling, gay? You sire are mad!
DCBlack @ Dec 11th 2007 9:18AM
That looks pretty decent, but maybe I'm just excited that there's finally some competition to WWE's tired games. I've stopped buying those for several years now.
NintendoFanbot @ Dec 11th 2007 9:26AM
His Menergy level is over 9000!
Superstar90 @ Dec 11th 2007 9:51AM
My scouter cracked!
Geist @ Dec 11th 2007 5:50PM
He's filled with Preposterous amounts of Testosterone!
PREPOSTERONE!
gevenstaines @ Dec 11th 2007 11:47AM
i figured a game based on professional wrestling would be a franchise simulation. write, direct, and produce the show. maybe even some kind of warped dating sim. but a sports game? no...
eric @ Dec 11th 2007 2:42PM
i think i'm gonna go grab my copy of virtual pro wrestling 2 and play that instead, or the latest firepro. real manly wrestling games.
Bryan @ Dec 11th 2007 3:35PM
TNA has essentially become a joke in the wrestling industry. As much as I want to see TNA succeed, their product is so terrible and is just unbearable to watch. With that being said lets hope at least the game will be good, its TNA minus the Vince Russo so it has a chance.

"Yeah, but why a hexagon?"
"Well, Jon, the answer is simple; If you want to have two men wrestle in a six-sided ring, a hexagon is your clear choice."
