In some unfortunate (although certainly not major) news, the Match Flow feature for WWE Universe only works if you use the card the game generates. If you want to edit any match, you have to play the match right then and there as was the case last year. Also reading that if you do that, it'll show the show-opening pyro before each match. I can see this whole thing being fixed for next year. On the plus side, it sounds like the game does a nice job of logically booking to follow storylines - so sticking with the card given to you might actually happen regularly.
Like last year, no titles can be vacated (gotta put them on people not on the Raw or SD rosters if you don't want to see the belts) and the game will still insert legends/non-Raw or SD people into storylines at times. One last thing - the Royal Rumble match at the PPV in Universe is stuck at 30 entrants. You can edit who is in, but not the number of participants. As somebody who does a lot of CPU simming, Rumble included, I'm happy about that. There's a video on YouTube of a 40 man Rumble and it took nearly an hour to complete. |

Going back to my previous post on Universe issues - the title belt and legend things I already anticipated, but the Match Flow thing is kinda upsetting. I find it hard to believe it never occurred to them that most people adjust the cards. Almost seems like it's the annual feature that they purposely don't go all-out with on the first go around so that they'd have an easy fix for WWE13. It also seems like the Raw and SD tag titles, for whatever reason, cannot be placed on anybody outside of Universe. So the workaround you have to do is make sure you give those belts to your Unified tag champs, as they will then only enter with the Unified tag belts. Once I download some CAWs I might just bring back the separate tag belts because my tag division was booming last year with 5 or more teams to a show.
Mind, a week before release is the same time last year when we found out that we couldn't make any alterations to tag matches or MITB - so I'll take these minor annoyances over something major like that any day of the week. |

They could have made it so you can edit the matches before you actually start the show.
Which I find hard to believe they didn't do. |

If a guy would come out with every belt they held in their entrance, I think you'd almost have to create or d/l the Ultimo Dragon to come out with all of those belts.

So turns out that the person at the local store lied to me so I preordered it from Amazon today with free shiping hopefully I get it on the 23rd and not the estimated date that it claims.

I realised that this is probably the only game, where Eddie is a legend, Chavo is a superstar, and Vickie is DLC. All in the game together. It'd be pretty cool to make a Los Guerreros stable.
Probably the only time this will be possible without using community creations, as I don't see Chavo being used as a legend any time soon... |

The only remotely new thing shown in the stream is that the draft happens on SD of that week as well. 3 picks on Monday and 2 on Friday

That review was aimless.
But it looks like the game will be great. |

I honestly don't remember the last time I wanted a game this much. I'm not overly into COD or anything that much. SvR is my yearly game. And this one just seems to raise the bar so much more than any previous instalment.

9.0 rating Highest rating for a wrestling game in a very, very long time.
Might even blow off plans for next weekend to play this in a huge 5 day marathon. |

Torn between this and Zelda. Leaning this because I'd have to get Skyward Sword with the Wii Plus remote

Was going to get Elder Scrolls V for PS3 but now i am getting this. All this talk about faulty game saves and lag has turned me away from it for the time being.

For the most part I agree about the review, but the one part that did stick out to me was where they talked about how much improvement was in the matches themselves. How you can actually tell some semblance of a story and have to wear your opponent down in order to get to your big moves now. That alone is the most exciting part of this to me. I mean Universe is nice, all the other bells and whistles are great but that is the one part that means the most to me.

If you don't pre-order and go to buy it on day 1 do you still get Rock?

Best Buy says the code is in the case, so probably a good chance if you go early enough

It's nice too see that it received such a great rating but IGN has given high ratings like that to very average WWE games like the RAW series on XBox they received a 9.1 each so with that said I'm really interested to see how the other major gaming sites rate it to me No Mercy is still the best of it's time.
