[Ace]

Awesome to see 'My Time' is in, I'll probably be hanging Triple H's heme now...


Attitude Era Eddie using the car entrance that's been in the game for years is just lazy though, seeing as he didn't have that til 2003-ish...

[Drakul]

I'm hoping we can pick and choose who is active during Universe Mode. If so, I intend to switch off every current wrestler and just have all the Attitude guys and arenas along with any custom ones I create.

[Kalyx triaD]

I've put "My Time" on HHH since custom soundtrack entrance music became a thing. I even used the My Time remix from the Anthology album a lot. Days of waiting for the on-disc soundtrack to have something I like ended ages ago. I've been correcting/improving superstar themes for years. Austin had the Disturbed theme in my play sessions every time.

I keep a 'WWE Correction/Improvement Theme CDRW' with all the common tracks for just this reason.

[Dukelorange]

I hope the Wii version doesnt get the shaft like last year...

[Kalyx triaD]

Hope is lost, bro.

Plus about 14 ssecret achievements I'm guessing related to Attitude/RTWM mode.

[Drakul]

Wait, did they previously announce Create-A-Championship was returning?

I like the idea of using it as a weapon. Small but cool touch. I'm looking forward to a video about it.

[whiteyford]

A lot of those achievements seem to run into each other, think there's 3 or 4 you can get in a single match with the created stuff. Like the attitude era ones too, only ones I don't care about are the online ones, if the servers as bad as previous years I doubt I'll even attempt them.

[Kane Knight]

It amazes me with all the new technology and improved graphics, we can't manage to get a WWE game where the people are able to walk without a stick up their ass.

Still, looks like I'll get this one. That was more a minor niggle.

Is there any reason you can't just keep them on your console of choice?

Yeah, online achievements are bad enough on games where the online is fun (or works). I do like the Daniel Bryan one though, even if its just a straight replacement for the "Beat Undertaker as Shawn Michaels" deal.

[Kalyx triaD]

Is there any reason you can't just keep them on your console of choice?

There's no guarantee I'd be playing on that console in the future, and I may wanna add some tracks based on who's in the game. It's worked out for me.

For instance, I've enjoyed the last three WWE games on three different 360s. I need that CDRW, and by extension the tracklist on my computer,

[XCaliber]

Geez I really hope they update Wade's vid and entrance music they've done changes on these in the late stages of the game before and last year there were quite a few of them.

[Ace]

Itd be pretty cool if The Acolytes had APA alt. attires.

[whiteyford]

£34 on Amazon with Tyson.

[Purgatory]

Nah, they were better as The Acolytes IMO. "The APA" were alright, tho I felt they were really watered down.

How brilliant was it after The Rock's heel turn to name the very next PPV after him, have the set be 2 giant ass pictures of him. Nowhere near that creative anymore. I'd love it if they named the next PPV "Attitude Adjustment" after Cena turns heel. Have the place covered in John Cena pictures. Rub that shit in.

King of the Ring Tournament Confirmed!

[Fignuts]

That's awesome

[jcmoorehead]

The other shots from the KoTR & I Quit modes announced today, and the list THQs PR sent out.

I Quit Match:
The I Quit match is finally making its long awaited return!
It’s been approximately 8 years since the match type has been featured in the franchise.
The match type has been completely redesigned from top to bottom to provide players with the most authentic representation of the I Quit match ever seen in video game form.

In keeping with WWE programming, the I Quit match is a 1-On-1, no holds barred, anything goes affair.
Utilize anything and everything within the in-ring environment to force your opponent to say the humiliating words, “I Quit!”

When your opponent is in a grounded state, press the B button (360 controls)/pin button to summon the referee to the grounded opponent.
The referee will kneel down next to the grounded opponent and place a microphone in front of their face.
It’s at this point that the I Quit mini-game is triggered.
Stop the moving cursor within the designated target zone before the words “I Quit” fully materialize on screen to inform the referee of your desire to continue the match.
If the opponent is unable to complete the mini-game in time, they’ll automatically quit the match wherein they will be declared the loser.
If a Superstar is in possession of a stored finisher icon they can use it to automatically win the mini-game and continue the match.
However, doing so will result in the loss of that finisher icon.
This option should only be used when you’re at your most desperate.

When an opponent is in the midst of performing the I Quit mini-game, the attacking Superstar can utilize an Intimidation taunt (by pressing one of the directional buttons on the d-pad) to increase the difficulty of the mini-game.
Performing an Intimidation taunt will cause the mini-game meter to shake violently, which in turn makes it that much harder for the defender to complete the mini-game in time.
Use of Intimidation results in a loss of momentum for the attacker so think twice before using it.
If the attacker doesn’t have a sufficient amount of momentum within their meter the Intimidation taunt can’t be used.

The I Quit mini-game can also be triggered by applying a Breaking Point submission hold on an opponent.
Just like grounded situations, the referee will position themselves near the trapped defender wherein they’ll position the microphone in front of their face.
Complete the mini-game successfully to break out of the submission hold and continue the match.
Failure to break out in time will result in a loss.

King of The Ring:
Create your very own King of the Ring tournament!
Players are able to choose the number of participants (4, 8 or 16) as well as the gender of the participants involved (that right, Divas can also take part in the King of the Ring tournament).

Players can also choose the type of match that they’d like for their tournament (Normal, backstage brawl, Hell in a Cell, Iron Man, Ladder, Last Man Standing, Steel Cage, Submission, Table, TLC and Extreme Rules).

Participants in the tournament can be chosen by random or selected by the player.

Each match in the tournament can be simulated or played.

The King of The Ring tournament can be played solo or with a friend for some multiplayer action.

[Optimus Bone 69]

Why is Scott Hall the most featured guy in the uk advert

[Kalyx triaD]

Cool.

[Fignuts]

Oh god, fuck you thq, for adding just enough awesome new features every year that I want to buy it.

My will is strong, though. Still going to wait and see how the servers turn out. I want my TNA roster on week 1. Not month 9.

[The Fugitive]

Just an odd thought I had while watching some clips on YouTube: Seeing as WWE '13 is planning to have bonus features with video clips of moments of the Attitude era, if WWE '13 (doubtful) or WWE '14 went the WCW Nitro/Thunder route and included 'Rants' on the character selection screen, is that something that would interest people or would that inclusion be rather 'meh'?

[whiteyford]

I always enjoyed those, its gimmicky as fuck but not in a bad way.

[CSL]

you don't have the mental skills or the dexterity, go on, go pick somebody else, go pick Hogan or somethin', don't pick me

[whiteyford]

I'm sold, make this mandatory again.

[Ace]

I really hope they make an extra effort on Superstar Threads. It may not be as good as a completely custom attire, but it's pretty damn close.

IMO, there are only 2 things that they need to do now to make the mode as complete as it can be -

1. Entrance attire.

Bugged the holy crap out of me if I changed, for example, John Cena's colour scheme to update it, but I can't update the shirt. It's such as small thing, but would go a long way in my book.

2. Customisable default attire.

Goes back to the previous really. If I 'update' an attire, or completely change it, for purposes in a story in Universe etc, I'd like to set that attire as 'default'. That way, when I do run ins, or if that character is in a cut scene, he or she will appear in their 'current' attire, as relates to my Universe.

Both such small tweaks to make, but I think would make a lot of difference...

[Kalyx triaD]

I actually miss the short promos at the select screen, but bring it back more as an extra like the Playstation version of WWF Warzone.

[Xero]

I would absolutely love that. But it should be as a bonus select screen or something, and be the exact same style, shitty video and and all.

[Skippord]

Hogan's sounds like he wants to straight up murder you

[Skippord]

why are some of them recommending you pick them and other ones threatening to beat the shit out of you?

[Skippord]

you can also tell Jericho's soul is dying at this point in his career

[Fignuts]

lol yeah, guess no one told scott hall that the idea is you pick the wrestler you want to play as, not the one you want to fight.

[Skippord]

Roddy Piper is begging for you to pick him though, kind of sad really

[DaveBrawl]

Need to steal my brothers PS3 so I can play Thunder again...and finish unlocking everything in Backstage Assault.

[Skippord]

something The Giant said on one of the games(Thunder, maybe) legitimately terrified me when I was a kid

[DaveBrawl]

It always upset me how Ric Flair didn't have the figure 4 as a move in Thunder but someone like Gene Okerlund did. Flair also didn't have a rant.

Thunder was definitely not fair to Flair.

[Lock Jaw]

I like how Sting calls it the "Stinger Death Drop". Doesn't even know the names of his own moves. Scorpion Death Drop.

[Corndad]

Raven is amazing in that video LOL Pick me, I don't care. Pick Someone else. Leave Me Alone. LOL

[DAMN iNATOR]

Nice to see “I Quit” and “King of The Ring” back. Now I just wish they’d bring back the Beat the Clock Challenge tournament mode.

They all do. They did an absolute shit job on the older faces. I guess the artistry of facial construction went out the window with the new face mapping technologies.

Improved CA-Arena shits on any complaints about faces.

[Fignuts]

I don't really care. I just think it's funny.

[James Steele]

Improved CA-Arena shits on any complaints about faces.

Fuck that shit. What is the point of creating an awesome "Triple H Appreciation Night SuperShow" if Triple H's face looks like a fucking hodge-podge clusterfuck of 5 melted Ken dolls and Splinter from TMNT.

[Fignuts]

Man has a point.

[Fignuts]

Honestly think Fire Pro Returns, has more accurate sprites, than those faces.

[Kalyx triaD]

Fuck that shit. What is the point of creating an awesome "Triple H Appreciation Night SuperShow" if Triple H's face looks like a fucking hodge-podge clusterfuck of 5 melted Ken dolls and Splinter from TMNT.

Hulk Hogan and Suzanne Sommers would both sacrifice baby dolphins for that hairline.

[Skippord]

they did totally nail Rikishi on No Mercy

pretty impressed

[James Steele]

Yet, Triple H's face doesn't even look fucking human. Unbelievable.

[James Steele]

I am glad to have "Pompadour Vince" back.

http://i.imgur.com/YXml9.jpg

Shane tried, but Vince has at least 1 1/2" lift on that thing.

[James Steele]

Stephanie has aged really well considering she has gotten ravaged by Triple H's monster cock for over a decade and has 3 kids.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

THIS GAME LOOKS GREAT.

Triple H didnt have those frown lines in 1997 either.

[Extreme Angle]

He has Andre the Giant's face

[itsmeJD]

That HHH/HBK photo looks fucking horrible, but I will admit Vince's pompadour is amazingly epic.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: THQ really messed up the faces badly this year.

Triple H's face might be worse than what they did to Booker T last year.

UPDATE: I pre-ordered WWE 13 and got a Spicy Chick-fil-A sandwich combo. No Starbucks.

[Lock Jaw]

Trying to figure out who HBK reminds me of in that photo. Whoever it is, it is definitely not HBK, though.

[The Jayman]

Kinda reminds me of Stunning Steve Austin

[James Steele]

It looks like the love-child of Shawn Michaels and Michael J. Fox if the lovechild had Down's Syndrome and a tiny mouth.

[whiteyford]

Actually got high hopes for the storymode this year.

[James Steele]

I just hope they fix the servers. I spent a good hour or two making the "Kiss My Hoss" Story only for me never able to share it with the world.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

The servers, universe mode bugs and gameplay that gets a bit stale after a while are the reasons I will not be giving THQ my money.

[Ace]

Actually got high hopes for the storymode this year.

Me too. They definitely made a good call in dropping RTWM and focusing so strongly on an era that pretty much everyone is fond of. Plus all the create and arena options with all the Attitude guys makes for a potentially fun Universe/ Create a story.

I wonder how many people here are just going to ditch most of the modern guys and run an Attitude Universe?

[#BROKEN Hasney]

With models like that, I'd probably just use them in story mode and then retire them from universe.

Retired Booker last year because his face pissed me off.

you ever been over to big show's house? his cereal bowl has a life guard!
i think i saw a tooth fly out!

2 of the most annoying things lawler said in previous games, here's hoping they change most of it

[Razzamajazz]

also mentioning "opportunistic" 400 times during any match edge is in

[Kalyx triaD]

What the fuck is Shamrock doing? Not his ankle lock.

[Fignuts]

what the fuck

[#BROKEN Hasney]

He did do the grapevine, but only when he dragged them back from the rope to stop them crawling. Pile of crap.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

How did Steve Blackman and Hardcore Holly not make the cut?

I miss the time limit title matches for the hardcore title on the PSX.

[Team Sheep]

This game intrigues me. Could well be my first WWE game since 2009.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

As long as my 360 holds up I'll probably be buying it. Or might have to get another 360.

[The Fugitive]

How did Steve Blackman and Hardcore Holly not make the cut?

Hoping Blackman makes it as DLC. Wouldn't really be interested in Hardcore on his own. Now if he was accompanied by Crash and Molly, then I might be interested.

[Drakul]

He did do the grapevine, but only when he dragged them back from the rope to stop them crawling. Pile of crap.

Unless Kurt Angle was telling the truth on Twitter and he is in the game, maybe as DLC, and they gave him the "proper" ankle lock and gave Shamrock the grapevine one. :shifty:

[Swiss Ultimate]

...when did Kurt Angle say he was in this game?

[whiteyford]

Couple of months back, not sure if he deleted the tweet though.

[The Fugitive]

Got a little bored, decided to do a little day-dreaming/marketing for dream DLC packs. I don't expect everyone to be included (hell, there's another 60+ guys all up). This is purely fantasy, but I wonder who and how many will get included, surely we can't just have AJ and Sandow.

WWE DLC 1:
With WWE DLC #1, unleash The Human Wrecking Ball, Ryback, on the entire roster or devastate your opponents with the natural disaster, Tensai. For those who prefer more fast-paced action, the swashbuckling Evan Bourne is more than happy to cater to your needs. Reunite The Miz with his former student, Alex Riley or Zack Ryder with his former Edgehead partner, Curt Hawkins. Give the Excellence of Execution, Bret Hart, some assistance from two of the last graduates of the world-famous Dungeon, Natalya and Tyson Kidd. Flawless and Perfection round off the package with Layla El and Michael McGillcutty.

WWE DLC 2:
With WWE DLC #2, reform WWE 12's United Kingdom with Drew McIntyre and William Regal. This pack also includes the Prime Time Players, Darren Young and Titus O'Neil and the Very European Couple of Antonio Cesaro and Aksana, as well as Kaitlyn, Ezekiel Jackson and Yoshi Tatsu.

WWE Legends Pack:
With the WWE Legends pack, relive past matches and create new matches against the current generation of Superstars with these nine Hall of Famers. Terrorize the WWE with the Eighth Wonder of the World, Andre the Giant. Give Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase a little parental advice and assistance from the American Dream, Dusty Rhodes and the Million Dollar Man, Ted DiBiase. Aid in the villianous Mr. McMahon's plots with his stooges, Gerald Brisco and Pat Patterson. Also includes Mr. Perfect, Ricky Steamboat, Roddy Piper and Terry Funk.

WWE Attitude Era Pack #1:
Turn it up with the WWE Attitude Era Pack #1. This pack of three trios features the hip-hopping Too Cool, Rikishi, Grand Master Sexay and Scotty 2 Hotty as well as the Holly cousins, Hardcore, Crash and Molly as well as Shane McMahon's old childhood friends, Joey Abs, Pete Gas and Rodney of the Mean Street Posse.

WWE Attitude Era Pack #2:
With the WWE Attitude Era Pack #2, play as more of your favorite past WWE Superstars. Long Live the King and play as Jerry Lawler, woo the ladies as the the Big Valbowski, Val Venis or play as the Evil, Indeed duo of Taka Michinoku and Funaki. The Headbangers, Mosh and Thrasher, join the party as well as Test, Dean Malenko and Perry Saturn. Moppy not included.

WWE Attitude Era Pack #3:
WWE's Attitude Era Pack #3 continues the trend of amazing wrestlers to play in WWE '13, it's true, it's damn true! Face Jack Swagger and Ken Shamrock off against fellow Ankle Lock utilizer, Kurt Angle. Strengthen the Undertaker's Ministry with Viscera, Mideon and Gangrel. Play as the unlikely team of Al Snow and Steve Blackman, better known as Headcheese and show the divas whose number one with the veteran Ivory and the legendary Mae Young and Fabulous Moolah.

WWE Attitude Era Pack #4:
Finish off your already massive roster with WWE Attitude Era Pack #4. Dominate the tag team division with the daredevil Hardy Boyz, Jeff and Matt Hardy or with the dastardly duo of Buh Buh Ray and D-Von, the Dudley Boyz. Complete the D-X faction with the Ninth Wonder of the World, Chyna. Bring it on with D-Lo Brown, Bull Buchanan, Essa Rios and the duo of Marc Mero and Sable.

[Mercenary]

Not bad except thq will never have that much dlc

[whiteyford]

Everything bar the Attitude Era #4 pack I could see happening, even with half of #3 being under contract to TNA. Plus the Headbangers should be on the cover of this game with their own RTWM to boot.

[Emperor Smeat]

That is way too many wrestlers for THQ to work on but I could see them do a Legends, a Current/Modern, and an Attitude pack similar to last year having 3 main packs.

[Kalyx triaD]

Straight Attitude/Modern packs, imo.

[Kalyx triaD]

Try pack analogues to; like Ryback/Goldberg.

[The Fugitive]

Do agree with everyone, it's entirely too many new characters to add as DLC, last year only had 15, I think. Plus people tend to complain about characters being left out and added later online, if the equivalent of the existing roster was sold as additional DLC, I would certainly understand the cries of 'cutting out half the roster' for another cash-grab.

Appreciate the feedback, cheers. :)

[What Would Kevin Do?]

So Bryan WIlliams is randomly confirming a new move a day on twitter. Some are pretty awesome. He's confirmed the shining wizard, Orton's Elevated Neckbreaker, Snapmare driver, Kane's weird hand smother thing (BP Submission), Dibiase's Rebound Clothesline and his jumping knee (Busaiku knee, which is badass), and a Lasso from El Passo BP submission.

[Fignuts]

Fuck yeah, shining wizard and Busaiku Knee.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

I wish they'd throw Kendricks moves in. Neck dealer to knee to face and stuff like that.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Fuck yeah, shining wizard and Busaiku Knee.

Shining Wizard included probably because of AJ being DLC. Yay AJ!

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

I wish they'd throw Kendricks moves in. Neck dealer to knee to face and stuff like that.

He was barely in the games when he was in the company. That would be a long-shot at best.

[The Fugitive]

Fuck yeah, shining wizard and Busaiku Knee.

Unfortunately, I can just see release day. "Oh wow, this is perfect for my Muta CAW! ... Except, wait, they've removed his Flashing Elbow and Muta Lock. Shit."

[Swiss Ultimate]

King of the Ring Tournament Confirmed!

We would like answers, Taker707.

[Ace]

I think 'destroys' is a bit much, but yeah, would've been a nice touch. Maybe WWE don't want the younger audience to see Cena being connected with something called F-U.

[Kalyx triaD]

So long as we know. We know.

[loopydate]

<s>We would like answers</s> Shut up, Taker707.

[Ace]

A little disappointed by some of the entrances tbh. Cena gets his separate entrance for 2004 (which is fine) but then Attitude models of Eddie Guerrero and Big Show have incorrect recycled entrances.

I know they are easy enough to edit, but considering that 'Attitude' is the focal point of the game, they've really taken a few short cuts...

[Fryza]

Thought those DLC packs were real. Marked out so hard for Kai En Tai. Then saw they weren't real.

[Emperor Smeat]

This year's Fan Axess DLC was revealed.

Current Era: AJ Lee and Damien Sandow, Antonio Cesaro, Drew McIntyre, Layla, Natalya, Ryback, Tensai, Jimmy & Jey Uso, Yoshi Tatsu.

Attitude Era: Mike Tyson (pre-order bonus), Brian Pillman, Chainsaw Charlie (Terry Funk), Gangrel, Rikishi, Too Cool (Scotty 2 Hotty & Grandmaster Sexay), Ministry of Darkness Undertaker, Val Venis.

Also added to the DLC pack is Ministry Undertaker Attire, Brock Lesnar's Kimura Lock and John Cena's 2004 United States Spinner Title.

Marked out for DDP. She didn't understand, although she herself marked out for Val Venis, which I completely got.

Understand that Terry Funk wasn't part of the Attitude era, but Jesus Christ, Chainsaw Charlie sucked.
Would have rather traded the Usos for Regal and Evan Bourne.
Please let the Diamond Cutter be a catch finisher.

[James Steele]

It can't be that hard to change Chainsaw Charlie into Terry Funk. Fuck, I love Terry Funk. "My EYYYYYYYYYYYYYYE! OWWWWW! MY EYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! YOU TOMATO-NOSED EGG-SUCKING SON OF GUN, MY EYEEEEEEEEE DUSTY! YOU NO GOOD FAT SON OF A CHICKEN LICKER, MY EYEEEEEE!"

[What Would Kevin Do?]

I am seriously hyped now. Brian Pillman as DLC is pretty much the greatest thing ever, and his springboard clothesline looks great.

[Kalyx triaD]

Everybody over the models yet?

[Kalyx triaD]

Because this game is hype as fuck.

[Fignuts]

Dude, I play Fire Pro. The models never factored in my decision to purchase this. I just thought it was funny how goofy they looked.

One nit pick: I understand why the kimura lock is dlc, as he didn't use it prominently til the build to summerslam, but Jericho's springboard dropkick? Come on man, that should be default.

Will get Fan axxess when I get this, so it doesn't affect me I guess. Just think it's weird.

Ministry Taker looks awesome, but I hope they also have his pimp ass hood w/ spiked sleeves from the last wrestlemania.

[Skippord]

much as I hate DLC conceptually I will still buy fan access when I buy this, DDP and Damien Sandow tag team

[Fignuts]

Even though he's kinda shitty, Gangrel has one of the best entrances of all time.

Wonder if you can bloodbath people.

[Skippord]

if you can't it's a missed opportunity

[Ace]

Apparently there are a whole bunch of alt. attires for current and Attitude wrestlers as standard unlockables. Makes me curious as to who gets them/ what they'll be.

Pretty much the best games concept and DLC WWE have had in a very long time.

[James Steele]

I want those tights HHH wore in 2001. It had the "metal" looking hHh on it, but it was gold. Looked fucking badass.

Ledesma said no. Said that the hat and trench was the 'approved' attire.

Crap really, since he hasn't worn it since having the Mohawk...

[James Steele]

Fuck me, it doesn't get any better than Triple H from late 99 through his quad injury...except for that run from 02-05.

[Ace]

Since they introduced superstar threads, I've always made one alt. attire for 99 HHH (darker trunks and gold/ metallic print) and 2 attires from 2003/04 when he was doing the Flair-esque colour changes/ white boots.

[James Steele]

I loved the colorful Triple H attires.

[Fryza]

Sold on DDP, Pillman, Goldust, and Gangrel. Deal.

[Crazy Nick]

I am definitely going to buy this on day one, really pumped up about it. Now if only time can fly by fast that way all of us can finally get our hands on it.

[Tommy Gunn]

Sandow, Ryback, Cesaro, AJ Lee, DDP! This became a must buy for me, maybe not day one, maybe the day that DLC pack comes out.

[Frank Drebin]

Cudos to THQ for the DLC characters. Thought newer guys like ryback would get shitty DLC models, like, 6 months from now like they did with Brodus for 12, and cesaro would never make it.

The lineup looks great and you never know if they throw in a surprise before the release.

I really really hope universe got some much needed upgrades as I can't wait to throw these guys into it and see what happens.

[Disturbed316]

Whoa, I don't normally get the dlc for WWE games but after seeing that trailer I think I will. Far better than anything they have put out before.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

Looks alright, but as Universe and Creation Center servers are the only things I use over the long term, I'll wait to hear how they are considering how much of an abortion they were in 12.

[Ermaximus]

WWE 12 had the worst online servers ever. I still to this day can't download a CAW without that shit crashing.

[The Fugitive]

Apparently there are a whole bunch of alt. attires for current and Attitude wrestlers as standard unlockables. Makes me curious as to who gets them/ what they'll be.

And hopefully, there's a key you can hit in Character Selection that binds an alternative attire as 'default'.

Haven't found any information with my Google-fu, but don't suppose anyone knows what limit we're looking at for CAW numbers this year. I suspect it's still 50, but I'm hoping to be wrong.

[Drakul]

As far as CAW, all I want now is all the CAWs on the system, not just my Gamertag, playable. Hate not being able to pit my guys against my brothers guys and it's the main reason I barely even touch CAW now.
We're playing on the same console, we're both logged into our Gamertags. What's the problem?

Doubt they'll have fixed that now or ever.

[Fignuts]

If they would only have more CAW slots.

[Tommy Gunn]

Details on Universe mode have been scarce, makes me wonder if they are just using the same system again, in which case, I'll look forward to seeing guys I feud with turning up at ringside with a ticket, as well as matches being restarted once a show into FCA / Submission matches.

[Mercenary]

Everybody over the models yet?


The dlc models look better than Paul Wright, and whatever the hell HHH and HBK are.

[Emperor Smeat]

Don't think its been mentioned before but the Season Pass has gone up in price from last year's $12 to now a $20 price tag.

[Kalyx triaD]

Whoa.

[Lock Jaw]

Are you kidding me? You have to BUY Chris Jericho's Lionsault? Jericho is in the game, but for whatever reason they decided not to give him one of his signature moves?

[Fignuts]

And his springboard dropkick. Thats what triangle dropkick is, I assume.

Not bothered by the price of the pass, as there seems to be a lot more dlc this year.

[Ermaximus]

Planning a huge story involving RYBACK where he is more or less the WWE version of Majin Buu. He'll work his way up the roster starting with the lowest jobber and eventually past all the main event guys. To make it more DBZ style after he beats someone, he will consume them somehow and that wrestler will vanish from the game until there is nobody left but divas. Then of course he'll face the legends and consume them too before facing Taker at WM and ending the streak and consuming him. It'll end with RYBACK as the ultimate champion of the WWE with every title until Kharma defeats him with a Spirit Bomb and frees the WWE.

[Fryza]

Then you remember you can't have Divas wrestling male opponents, so you'll substitute Kharma for Mark Henry in a corset/dress combo and a wig.

This attire will fool everyone, including Mark Henry.

[Tommy Gunn]

I'd love to make one of those 'overpriced DLC is destroying games' posts, but, I can't be arsed.

I'll wait for WWE 13 to drop to half price, which won't take long, to make up the fact I'll be paying a lot more money to get the DLC season pass. At least THQ are doing a good job keeping the roster more up to date.

[Ultra Mantis]

Omega Driver DLC? THQ loves Chuck Taylor.

[Dark-Slicer Diago]

And his springboard dropkick. Thats what triangle dropkick is, I assume.

I think I is as that's what is was called in HCTP, I also think that Flapjack/Cutter is the 3D as that is what it is(D-Von with the Flapjack and Bubba Ray with the Cutter).

[Ermaximus]

I just realized I can have Cena portray Goku in my story. RYBACK can beat regular PG era Cena, but Cena escapes and then "goes SSJ" and turns into the Dr. of Thuganomics. He still loses, but it gives us something different. Hell, I could do the same with HHH, except he'd clearly be Vegeta. Blue Blood--> Triple H--> DX HHH.

[Ace]

Delayed vertical suplex bodyslam is most likely the Jackhammer. Which along with the 3D, Lionsault and springboard dropkick, we've had regularly before... But can't complain tbh. There's a lot of great stuff both in game and DLC this year.

[Drakul]

What's the move called where you'd do a suplex motion but you'd turn it into a kind of neckbreaker, with your opponents neck resting on your shoulder, while you held his legs. You'd then jump and land on your butt but damaging the opponent. It was in Wrestlemania 2000/No Mercy, I think, and a bunch of Smackdown games but then they removed it.
Hoping they add that again as it was the finisher of a regular character of mine.

[The Jayman]

the muscle buster?

[Drakul]

Almost exactly but it wasn't a slam. You jumped up and landed on your butt instead of slamming them on their back.

[Drakul]

[The Fugitive]

Do think it's setting a dangerous precedent, if I'm going to be honest. Depending on how much success they have with people buying each pack will probably dictate what DLC we'll see in WWE '14. We're used to paying for new wrestlers and alternative appearances, but moves and titles that get unlocked with DLC... what comes next year? Locked arenas? Themes and titantrons?

[whiteyford]

I don't mind buying the axxess pack if the quality/quantity of DLC is worth it but i'd rather have talent that hasn't been in a game for years then another Cena in a differnt coloured shirt. I'd love them to release the previous years DLC as a giant pack, they download at least unlike the CAWs more often than not.

[DAMN iNATOR]

I like your Cena idea so far, but after the initial part you talk about, have you given it much thought as to how you'll flesh out something more, because it sounds very promising...

Wouldn't be that different from other companies who do similar things with their DLC over time especially since THQ really needs the money.

[CSL]

Just for the record, this is still my favorite look for CM Punk:

"manager of your local electronic appliance store"

[BizarroKing]

It'll end with RYBACK as the ultimate champion of the WWE with every title until Kharma defeats him with a Spirit Bomb and frees the WWE.

If you are to pull this off, you should have him start out as Skip Sheffield from NXT as Goofy Buu, then he gets super pissed and becomes Nexus Skip Sheffield aka Evil Majin Buu, then down the line after consuming say Triple H or Del Rio or Barrett, it 'transforms' him into the final form of Ryback (representing Kid Buu).

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Delayed vertical suplex bodyslam is most likely the Jackhammer. Which along with the 3D, Lionsault and springboard dropkick, we've had regularly before... But can't complain tbh. There's a lot of great stuff both in game and DLC this year.

Unless it's like Matt Morgan's Hellavator. Probably not, but it'd be awesome.

[Purgatory]

It's the Jackhammer:( I'd love to see The Hellevator in though

[#BROKEN Hasney]

Need to see these moves. If they're not re-animated, I will never buy the game new or touch the DLC. Can't support the arbitrary removing of moves just because THQ are almost bankrupt.

If they go bust, I'd love to see someone else give it a stab anyway.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Using the quick match setting as Ryback will be glorious.</font>

[Tommy Gunn]

Ryback should always have 2 finishers and 2 signatures at the beginning of every match. #moveset

[Optimus Bone 69]

Ryback entrance anyone?

[Ace]

Got an email the other day to say I won a competition I entered, to hold a 'WWE 13 party' with 9 or more friends. They're giving me a complementary copy of the game a week and a half early so I can hold the party a week before release!


Pretty sweet news.

[Kalyx triaD]

Are they paying for the party? How does it work?

[Ace]

They're sending me a box with the game, posters, superstar masks, cheap titles etc. the only condition is that I take a shitload of pictures of the 'party' and email them so they can put them on their website. 500 people in the UK got chosen.

Free advertising for them, free game for me.

[Kalyx triaD]

Cool.

[Emperor Smeat]

Read an article before loosing the link but tomorrow is when THQ starts giving out more details in regards to Universe and other stuff people have noticed have been barely talked about by them this close to the game's launch.

Supposed leaked screenshot for Universe mode showing off stats being tracked.
http://boards.420chan.org/wooo/src/1349637133273.png

Paul Heyman is also rumored to have written or provided support for all the stories in Universe mode this year.

Do you have to sign a NDA as well or can people ask you with questions about the game as well?

[Purgatory]

A week and a half before the release, plus a party with 9 or more other people? I don't think they'll require him to sign one.

[Kalyx triaD]

After the party drop some deets.

That's my word details. Help me spread it.

[Ace]

No, one of the things they request is to talk about the game and spread the word etc.

So as soon as I get it and start playing, I'll get to posting details, opinions etc.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

I wonder if one of them is a filthy pirate and will upload the game to the interwebs.

[Purgatory]

What would one need to burn such a game, should said game be uploaded?

Not for me, for some other guy.

[Fignuts]

Create a Show

Players now have the freedom to create their own shows while scheduling which day they appear on, from Monday through Saturday. In their show creation process, players will be able to choose the presentation graphics, the arena, which rosters appear on the show, and assign up to four Championships to be contested over.
Create a Pay-Per-View

In addition to custom shows, players can also create a Pay-Per-View that can be held on any Sunday. Along with choosing the presentation graphics and arena, players can choose which shows participate in the Pay-Per-View, as well as the match-type theme.
Statistics

Players can now view various championship and show statistics within their WWE Universe. Containing both historical statistics and statistics that update as your WWE Universe progresses, players can try to further one Superstar’s championship reign or try to beat it.
Storylines

Superstars will enter into feuds against each other as part of a rivalry, while competing for #1 contender rights for a championship title, and more. Take part in 200 new storyline feuds and choose which Superstars stand out in your Universe.
More Content, More Freedom

Many improvements and other additions have been made to Universe, such as more matches per show and the freedom to edit whole match cards, customizable championship rankings, and the ability to restart your Universe from the beginning.

[Fignuts]

Fucking hell.

They got me again.

Still, probably going to wait a week to buy it, just because no matter how much the servers have improved, the first week or so is still going to be chaos.

[Tommy Gunn]

DAMN IT, stop making me want to throw money at you, THQ! I want that Universe mode NOW.

[Xero]

Was Paul Heyman really a consultant for Universe mode? If so, holy fuck.

[XCaliber]

Sold plus it just went down $6 on Amazon in Canada so I've now pre-ordered my copy and on the off chance it goes even lower I will get the difference I don't care if I get it a bit late with the free shipping.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Unless it's like Matt Morgan's Hellavator. Probably not, but it'd be awesome.

<iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/jYXSRKcegrA" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" width="420"></iframe>

I don't think it is. wiki describes the Hellevator as a "vertical suplex side slam" (note nothing about the move being delayed at all in the description), whereas the Jackhammer is described as a "delayed vertical suplex powerslam pin", which, at least in my estimation sounds a lot more like the delayed bodyslam move.

[DAMN iNATOR]

LOL @ it listing 'Taker with only 19 Mania appearances (shouldn't they have counted it as 20) and Triple H being called "Hunter" :lol::lol::lol:.

[Kalyx triaD]

That all sounds great. Can I choose music for my shows now?

[Fignuts]

Next year.

They should have ratings for shows like in gm mode, as a way for brands to compete.

[The Fugitive]

I would assume that's what's meant by 'custom theme' at 0:46. Could be wrong.

Wished I could swap out the RAW and Smackdown themes in WWE '12 with Across the Nation and either The Beautiful People or I Want It All for Smackdown, but alas that wasn't possible.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

They can write whatever they like about universe mode, but unless the actual scenes picked out make sense this time, it's still not worth it.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

And of course, less fucking match restarts.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

Then I watch the video and get weirdly excited that Paul Heyman is "booking". Dammit.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

I would assume that's what's meant by 'custom theme' at 0:46. Could be wrong.

Wished I could swap out the RAW and Smackdown themes in WWE '12 with Across the Nation and either The Beautiful People or I Want It All for Smackdown, but alas that wasn't possible.

Well caught. If you pause it at 0:46, it does say about using a custom theme for your show.

[Fignuts]

Custom theme probably refers to the previously mentioned match themes that you can add to ppv's.

[XL]

Yeah, I presumed they meant theme as in style, not as in music.

[Kalyx triaD]

I have a great theme in mind for my CAW show so it's kinda important for me.

[The Fugitive]

Grr, yeah, I just read in another article. Theme refers to match themes. A TLC theme for PPVs or Extreme Rules theme.

Oh well, there's some improvements to this year that I felt were sorely needed in WWE '12. Customizable championship rankings and resetting the Universe are two that come to mind.

[XL]

Is the replacement to RTWM mode just gonna be playing through the actual events of the Attitude Era with Austin, Rock, Taker, etc?

[Ace]

As far as I'm aware, yes.

[XL]

Meh. What's the point of a story mode if you know the end of the story? The Universe stuff better be pretty good to make up for that.

Probably wait for this to drop in price/the DLC comes out, save paying £60 for the full content.

[Dark-Slicer Diago]

I think that the Delayed Vertical Suplex Powerslam could be Matt Morgan's Hellavator since the Jackhammer that was made for HCTP is in as Suplex Slam, also, the Kinniku Buster is still in as well, it's called Consequence.

[Fignuts]

You have it or something?

[Dark-Slicer Diago]

If you mean '12, yes.

[Fignuts]

They could have changed the names of the moves.
