Voodoo Vince Returning In 2017

Voodoo Vince: Remastered has been revealed to be in production for Xbox One and Windows 10 PCs.

Some of you are squealing right now, and many more of you are Googling "Voodoo Vince." Let me save you the trouble: it was a fun, charming puzzle-platformer released exclusively on the original Xbox in 2003. Its quirky setting and unique-at-the-time mechanics helped it build a small following, but it was subsequently lost to time.

According to the press release, and the very brief teaser trailer, Voodoo Vince: Remastered will be coming some time next year. In addition to now being presented in a 16:9 aspect ratio and running at 60 fps, the visual effects have been "updated," though the exact nature of said update isn't really explained, and the trailer doesn't appear to show any remastered footage.

Wrestling Wrap Up: Everyone Bow to Sasha Banks

Two PPVs a month? Not a fan. Nope. It's aggressive and it hurts. Of course, I'm just coming at this from a time management perspective. There's just too much damn wrestling and we all know this. I kind of wish my 12-year-old self who used to have to hunt, with feverish desperation, to catch one match on TV as a kid -- no matter the promotion -- could hear me be such an a-hole about the abundance of armbars these days. He'd scowl me something awful.

All these PPVs are a by-product of the brand split, of course. It's just one of the hiccups and hurdles I'll have to begrudgingly adjust to as I navigate my way through the New Era. And I'm willing. There are more benefits to the split than drawbacks. No, not every wrinkle's been smoothed over, but there's enough great stuff going on to keep me interested. I mean, just think about it. We didn't see Dolph Ziggler wrestle at all this week. Now that he's relegated to one show, if he doesn't have a match on that show, he doesn't get a match.
