It's too long to paste in one post, so there's the link and this can be the discussion thread.

Haha, that was great. :cool:

He's got some crazy ego going there, but If I could wrestle like he could, I'd be like that too. Also, :eek: @ Sting being in the game this time.

[I-Hate-You]

There's a thread on the second with the same interview.

[Disturbed316]

I might actually consider purchasing Showdown, its got a pretty impressive roster :y:

[Loose Cannon]

Man, that game looks fricken awesome. I never even heard about it until now. You can make a kick ass Hart Foundation. (Owen, Bret, Bulldog, Piper, Dynmaite) But, where the fk is Pillman?

[Disturbed316]

OMFG :eek:

OWEN HART IS IN THE GAME :eek: :heart: :'(

[Head]

Too bad the other LOW games sucked, despite the impressive rosters.

Read that interview a little while ago. I was suprised Bret said his favorite match ever was his Wrestlemania 13 one.

None of that is new.

I have Legends of wrestling 2. It has 8 people on screen at once. The only new things I've seen so far are the bigger roster (Pillman is in the first 2 games, BTW), the cutting out of half the Von Erichs, less cartoony graphics and a tutorial mode with Bret Hart.

[Loose Cannon]

yeah, I have the first one and it sucked, so I never bothered with the others. I hated the control scheme in it too. I hope they have improved it over the years. I never played an 8 people at once game though.

[Zen v.W.o.]

....

Awesome screen name. Any Pillman fan is on my praise list.

But yeah, you cant have a Hart Foundation, nor a definitive legends game without the greatest of all time.

Pillman and the Foundation owns.

The first one was complete crap. The second makes huge strides, although you'd probably still not dig the controls too much.

The controls are suited to 1P mode. It's kinda a waste of time doing multi player unless you are facing someone as good as you are, or it will be a complete squash.

[Loose Cannon]

Check out this cool pic I found. Andre is really huge and you can see a difference. I've never seen a size difference like that in wrestling video games.

Also, check out that site for a lot of media on the game

Check out the videos. The animation is way smoother this time around. And it looks like they'll have some (dodgy) commentary.

I'd give my right testicle to see Andre really give the Warrior a beatdown. :y:

Okay, maybe I wouldn't, but it'd be pretty damn priceless.

I don't know, the controls for LOW were pretty damn crappy, from LOW II. If they can really fix it up, this would be a definite purchase.

[Lara Emily]

Hmm they took out David Von Erich oh well, not like they really did anything to make each Von Erich play differently.
