Why did Lane #1 stop with Nuclear Names ?
« on: October 10, 2005, 09:51:19 AM »
I'm pretty sure this has came up before, but why didnt they continue with the nuclear names ? I was watching some Atomic Bomb films today and it hit me, Damn Lane #1 had alot more names that could have went with

I think the Nuclear names were cool as hell, Very different...Alot better then the water path there going now...

Well, when you think about it, there are only so many names that will be somewhat catchy...and a lot have been used in the past...like:

AZO: Fat Man, Little Boy, and Armageddon

Track: Nuke and NRG

Roto Grip: Apocalypse, and all the Grenades (Gold, Black, Clear)

Storm: Atomic Charge and Depth Charge

Brunswick: Explosion Zone, Fuze Detonater, Battle Zone Missle, Battle Zone Cannon, Battle Zone Bullet, and Defense Zone

What else did you want them to make...the new Lane#1 Carpet Bomb? or how about the Suicide Bomb?  Maybe the Plutonium? You can only milk a series soo long (unless it's the Brunswick Zone series...I don't think they'll EVER stop making those bad boys...)!!!

That what I was hoping for BigWillyStyle, Plutonium Bomb...That would have been badazz !!!

I'm not talking about war names like the Zones or Missle names. I was hoping for more names with Nuclear line, not war and the such.

Atom Bomb
Nuetron Bomb
Solid Mass
Fallout
ect...
