THQ has amassed a lot of good wrestling titles. WCW/nWo Revenge, Wrestlemania 2000, No Mercy, Smackdown! games on the ps1/2, I'm sure I am leaving a lot of them out.

They have come a long way from the last 12-15 years or so.

Evil Vito 08-10-2012 07:37 AM

<font color=goldenrod>Still not sold on this. I need details on Universe Mode and, most importantly, I need to hear that the servers aren't a piece of shit this year.</font>

Disturbed316 08-11-2012 09:51 PM

Entrances look good compaired to last year, but would rather they spend the time and resources fixing the AI as I normally skip them after I watch them once.

Kalyx triaD 08-12-2012 10:25 AM

What?

Extreme Angle 08-12-2012 10:59 AM

The entrances Kalyx... He skips the entrances...

Kalyx triaD 08-12-2012 11:15 AM

He said AI...

Wehttam 08-12-2012 11:30 AM

yes, he wants them to fix AI and worry less on entrances, as he usually skips them...

Kalyx triaD 08-12-2012 11:40 AM

AH, I read it correctly now.

Extreme Angle 08-12-2012 01:23 PM

Feel like a douche writing "entrances Kalyx" like that, Disturbed's post was pretty confusing to read.

St. Jimmy 08-12-2012 02:14 PM

This game still isn't No Mercy and thus it sucks.

CSL 08-12-2012 02:34 PM

Hell to the Yeah... if Ken Shamrock is in too I will be good to go.

Wish that there were AI settings for each superstar/diva in the game

DAMN iNATOR 08-13-2012 12:40 PM

Right. Because that would be oh-so-much easier than entering the options menu and picking from either Easy, Normal, Hard or Legend difficulty. :roll:

I think he means more like Fire Pro where you can set workers' individual tendencies so they behave more like their real counterparts.

Another "Attitude Era" guy confirmed, probably before he was intended to be:

Kalyx triaD 08-13-2012 10:09 PM

Well that's that. Great roster.

Razzamajazz 08-14-2012 02:56 AM

dammit, if that's actually true and not "internet rumor = true" i've gotta buy this

Razzamajazz 08-14-2012 02:57 AM

also, did mankind have that music when he started wearing the shirt and tie?

Ace 08-14-2012 03:04 AM

He had it at the KOTR HIAC with Taker, so yes.

XL 08-14-2012 03:14 AM

Will be very pleased if Angle is in.

Dark-Slicer Diago 08-14-2012 08:27 AM

Well, we'll find out on Saturday when the roster is revealed.

Fignuts 08-14-2012 09:34 AM

Dunno, this isn't a big deal to me.

Since Community Creations has come out, there have been picture perfect Kurt Angle CAWs every year. All with 4 attires, spanning his career.

This one will probably have one attire, and it will be one of his more simple and bland ones, like it's been for all legends lately.

THQ's official reason or excuse is "disc space issues."

Definitely just an excuse. They've thrown that same exact excuse @ people asking for 8 players in the ring (since it was last, and exclusively seen in Just Bring It) for like 93482765148329786431 years now.

Yeah I agree. The CAWs from community creations tend to have more detail than any of the downloadable ones released by THQ.

DaveBrawl 08-16-2012 04:27 PM

Quick question and this one is more of a system question than game specific I guess, but aren't you supposed to be able to rip themes from a burned disc to the 360 hdd? Because I tried that the last time I played 12 and could not get it to work.

Kalyx triaD 08-16-2012 04:30 PM

You have to put the songs into a playlist, a single-track playlist. It's an annoying issue they refuse to fix.

DaveBrawl 08-16-2012 04:39 PM

Ah, that makes sense, because I knew I had gotten it to work in the past. I thought maybe the most recent dashboard update had taken that out. Thanks.

Kind of hindered my enjoyment some seeing as most of the guys I wanted to play as didn't have theme music or had awful generic music.

Evil Vito 08-17-2012 08:50 AM

Pretty stoked for the roster reveal tomorrow. I don't even really care about the current roster since it'll probably be nearly identical to last year's with maybe a couple of jobbers being switched out for one another. It's all about seeing the Attitude Era roster and if the rumors were true about Blackman, Shamrock, Angle, etc

Dark-Slicer Diago 08-17-2012 09:16 AM

Yeah, they'd be 3 of my most played this year easy.

Evil Vito 08-17-2012 09:27 AM

If Blackman actually is in, it makes me hopeful that a decent amount of Attitude Era midcarders will get in.

XCaliber 08-17-2012 11:34 AM

If Blackman makes the cut and D'Lo Brown doesn't I'm not buying.

CSL 08-17-2012 01:22 PM

no Fink announcing the Attitude guys, booooo that

SlickyTrickyDamon 08-17-2012 05:36 PM

I'd like an online league like in madden or something like that.

Kalyx triaD 08-17-2012 09:43 PM

Not this generation, but an online promotion is a logical step.

Drakul 08-18-2012 02:31 AM

Nah, an online promotion wouldn't be fun in reality. You'd get every 12 year old with their John Cena rip off CAW or "Nothing but black and tattoos" CAW thinking they should be Main Eventing and just quitting when they get beat because their CAW isn't supposed to get beaten.

Unless the online promotion consisted of a guy running it and up to, say, 30 of his friends that he personally invites.
He then makes the card for TV events a day or two in advance, which sends a message to the ingame mailbox of that player, telling them the match, the day and the time.
The owner of the fed has access to who has won/lost and how often and can make matches based on that, if he likes.
A sort of "House Show" feature could be used as a "quick play" option, if you fancy having matches inbetween scheduled TV events, without prior organisation.

I'm not sure how you could work in the concept of promos or backstage scenes without it becoming a chore, so maybe it'd just be matches.

Evil Vito 08-18-2012 09:50 AM

<font color=goldenrod>A couple more Attitude Era guys confirmed...not that it's at all surprising but Attitude Era DX are in.</font>

http://cdn.bleacherreport.net/images...AMENDED_v2.jpg

Kalyx triaD 08-18-2012 10:41 AM

The online promotion can be judged by best match of the night rather than win/loss, and I think that would change things. I like the idea of a GM running things. He can put himself in matches as well. You can cap the players in the promotion to 20 and have two main championships (main event and mid-card). The GM could only use a Power 25 ranking to set championship matches, and the ranking will be based on the best matches rather than wins.

I used to do this back in the day with Smackdown vs raw 2006...
We did ECW Online, each person was picked a wrestler from the roster at random, cards were posted up a week in advance.
It was pretty fun!

Skippord 08-18-2012 05:29 PM

Damien Sandow :heart:

Evil Vito 08-18-2012 05:30 PM

<font color=goldenrod>So after the 3rd set of the reveal, I do believe that they got absolutely everybody from the leaked roster. Also modern versions of Edge and Lita for some reason. JBL is cool though.

Still not going to get the game unless the servers are markedly better.</font>

ahhhh gotcha. And they have to really, most people that wind up buying the game probably have no idea the roster was already leaked on the internet

Extreme Angle 08-18-2012 05:41 PM

2 Big Shows, 2 Jerichos, 2 Christians, 2 Edges, 2 Bradshaws, 2 Cenas, 2 Kanes, 2 Henrys, 2 Rocks, 3 HHHs, 2 Takers, 2 Litas.

Ace 08-18-2012 05:42 PM

3 Foleys

Corporate CockSnogger 08-18-2012 05:43 PM

I, for one, am happy about having 3 Triple H's.

Ace 08-18-2012 05:49 PM

There is nothing about this roster I'm unhappy about tbh.

Sure, there are a few Attitude Era guys I'd have liked, but they usually release 3 or 4 DLC packs, so who knows?

The past attires of current superstars was pretty obvious, but I love it.

Debut Jericho & Big Show? Awesome.

APA as well as JBL? Very cool.

The classic Cena is a nice touch, as well as having 3 eras of HHH.

2 versions of the Brothers of Destruction, plus the entire classic DX.

Looks awesome to me!

Ace 08-18-2012 05:50 PM

Also LOL @ Godfathers Hos in his entrance.

Anyone else!? :)

Evil Vito 08-18-2012 06:54 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Seriously though, my thoughts on the roster are pretty much the same as it was when it was first leaked. The current roster is fine. But the Attitude Era one is just meh to me. Just way too many duplicates. Ledesma says that the Attitude Era versions of guys will have their own unique movesets and entrances.

Entrances, sure. But movesets? I doubt it. What's really going to be different? 1999 Big Show won't have a knockout punch. 1999 Jericho won't have a Codebreaker. 1999 Undertaker won't have the Hell's Gate or Last Ride. Hunter Hearst Helmsley will have different taunts than his other HHH counterparts. That's about it.

All in all it's really not a whole lot different than there being 2 Cody Rhodes' last year. But by making them their own roster spots they can artificially tout the largest roster to date. Same thing really with JBL, thuganomics Cena, and modern Edge/Lita. They'll have a different entrance and theme, that's about it. The only "surprise" was Laurinaitis getting in and I assumed he'd always get in as a NPC for Story Creator mode.

In the end, it all comes down to gameplay and I got bored of the last few games very quickly. Not a day 1 buy for me. I'll rent first and see how it goes.</font>

Ace 08-18-2012 06:55 PM

Yeah... gonna put Brock and Shamrock in a cage match.

Corporate CockSnogger 08-18-2012 07:15 PM

What's the story mode or whatever on this game? Has that been announced yet? If it's some sort of thing where you can kill a bunch of the current roster with Attitude Era guys then I'll buy it. I might even just buy it to make my own story of DX + Kevin Nash running round destroying everyone.

Evil Vito 08-18-2012 07:20 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Basically you re-live the Attitude Era. You play about 60 or so matches and play them out exactly as they happened, kinda like Legends of WrestleMania. Then there's cutscenes in between and the like.</font>

Corporate CockSnogger 08-18-2012 07:23 PM

That doesn't sound that interesting really, already know what happens in those storylines. Should just have John Laurinaitis invent a time travel machine and show that he's the best GM of all time by bringing back a bunch of interesting wrestlers to wipe out the useless current guys. Then Brodus Clay can dance for a while.

Evil Vito 08-18-2012 07:27 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Ledesma said in an interview at one point that the 24/7 Hardcore Title defenses would be part of the mode. And yet pretty much none of those guys are in there.

Almost wonder if they should have just gone balls out with the Attitude Era. Like 80 Attitude Era guys or something. Would have been kinda surreal.</font>

Corporate CockSnogger 08-18-2012 07:30 PM

Yeahhh would much rather have Attitude Era midcarders like Test, Val Venis, Crash Holly, Hardys etc than the likes of Primo, Epico, Jinder Mahal, Justin Gabriel.

Really want Test in there to make a full Corporation, minus the stooges.

Evil Vito 08-18-2012 07:30 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Actually he mentioned the Monday Night Wars factoring into the mode too but there's little WCW representation in the game. They kinda half-assed it with the WCW storyline in last year's game.</font>

James Steele 08-18-2012 07:34 PM

I'm going to do a storyline where The Great Khali builds a time machine in his feud with Damien Sandow. Sadly, while Sandow is trapped in time he meets "Blue Blood" HHH and forever changes history. DX is never formed, and Shawn Michaels ends up beating Rockabilly at WrestleMania XIV to retain the WWF Championship and he goes on to dominate the WWF. The Great Khali then has to get Sin Cara and Road Dogg to help him go back in time and stop Sandow from completely destroying the WWE Universe. This of course will lead to Vince McMahon and Shane McMahon being stuck in alternate time periods. Vince McMahon is stuck in the future and Shane is forced to run the WWF in 1999. The Great Khali decides to take the ultimate risk and join the WWF roster in 1999. He decides to run over Stone Cold Steve Austin at Survivor Series and go on to dominate the WWF from 2000 onward. Sin Cara and Road Dogg have to decide what to do about Khali's greed potentially destroying the space-time continuum. Sin Cara and Road Dogg also find out that have to find the cure for an unknown disease given to them after a huge orgy with Lita and Vader. Can they rebuild the time machine and stop Khali from succumbing to his greed? Can the duo stop Damien Sandow from ruining Road Dogg's career? Can they find a way to pee without that burning sensation? Play WWE '13 to find out.

Evil Vito 08-18-2012 07:38 PM

<font color=goldenrod>AJ and Sandow as DLC. I'd be surprised if Tensai and Ryback aren't DLC also. Could see the heavily rumored Blackman, Rikishi, and Too Cool being DLC as well.</font>
