Yeah not excited by this game at all so far.

But Scott Norton is in the game *RUMORED* -Ryan Clark

STACY KIEBLER BABY BUMP NUDE PICS - MUST SEE!!

I would buy the Scott Norton edition obviously.

That is a huge bummer for wrestling games.

<font color=goldenrod>There's been enough backlash that I think the next-gen systems will eventually release a patch so that MP3s can be ripped to the system hard drive again. I can't speak to the XBOne but for the PS4 the functionality is still there. There are still USB ports even though the PS4 does not recognize them. Hopefully they'll eventually patch it up since they've gotten plenty of complaints.

Would suck if they didn't, though. Will feel like going back to the PS2 days where all of my CAWs had generic themes.</font>

Ditto.

At this moment, I'm even questioning if I should even bother getting it at all.

Something really good is going to need to happen for me to want the game now at this stage.

If we see footage of it during SummerSlam Weekend, and it just looks like the exact same as the previous games and with the same gameplay, but with a more up to date roster, then I'm counting myself out.

Not a day one purchase, it drops in price fairly quickly here and still comes with the preorder DLC in the box.

If they abandon the Yukes/AKI grappling system entirely, I won't buy the game. Every game I bought was based on that system. I was never a fan of the SvR series because I couldn't wrap my head around the control.

<font color=goldenrod>I'll be buying this regardless because I have virtually no games for my PS4. Then next year will be my "skip year" if it seems like there are barely any improvements.</font>

I just want a game that feels different when I play it.

I want to feel like I'm playing a brand new game and not just the same game I've been playing for the past seven or eight years, but with an updated roster.

Unless it has the IGNITE ENGINE.

IGN will be revealing a lot of info about the game during this month as part of their "IGN First" feature.

You can expect to see plenty of exclusive, muscle-infused content, including first-ever gameplay, behind the scenes pieces with WWE Superstars, exclusive roster reveals, and much more. It’s going to be a good old fashioned sports-entertainment/video game slobber-knocker, and the only place to get any of it will be right here, on IGN First.

<font color=goldenrod>Image make its way through the interwebs, offscreen shot from a supposed convention. Shame really. The guy who made it bothered to put the effort in to include the new WWE logo but "Langston" is a dead giveaway. He's been just Big E for months. As if they'd completely update Ambrose yet not bother to change Big E's name.</font>

ill be happy as long as its got Hogan and Warrior
as terrible as that is thats what the Bone wants just a fact

cause its a game for 2015. Time to say fuck it to the legends and give a full roster of the current guys. Make all legends DLC and stop living in the past.

He didn't specify them being DLC or not, he just wanted them, and I think that's fine.

Maybe if the current roster was any good....

Fuck all that, did they improve upon the meta-game? I want a deeper playing experience that I feel truly rewarded about upon mastery of it. There has to be a way to balance simplicity for beginners and a richer simulation experience for the mature and ripened player. Wrestling is all about the drama, psychology, and story being told and that is the perfect place to flesh out an awe-inspiring and all-encompassing gaming experience for those who want to do more than 1000 finishers, flips, and weapon moves. There is a reason Hogan/McMahon at WMXIX is a better match and more memorable than Hardy vs Hardy at WM25.

Oh yes I can't wait to play as the non over Adam Rose or maybe I'll play as the bland as hell Sheamus/Orton/ADR trio.....Yeah give me the old guys any day. Hell I rather use a Bob Holly character over the new guys.

One of the things they've always overlooked was how WM doesn't feel like WM. No major build or anything. Just another ppv that might as well be In Your House or Over the Limit. Kinda the same issue the Madden franchise has or used to have (depending on who you ask) when it came to any regular season game vs the Super Bowl. I want a career mode that does what Steele talked about. I want replay value, damnit.

I've never gotten any long-term storylines in Universe mode, and they could easily scrap it all together. I just do exhibition storylines in my head since creating shit in Create Mode takes too fucking long and all the ones in Community Creations are either fuck-off hard or comedy ones. I remember spending hours on a comedy one about Michael Cole and then it wouldn't let me upload it over some stupid shit.

"I've just received word that this match is now a submission match!!"

SWERVE

Are you telling me that that on every show doesn't count as a long term story??

I never even got that.

<font color=goldenrod>I only seemed to ever get that cutscene when I was using a wrestler who had little to no useful fucking submissions. Awful.</font>

I got some comical cut scenes that didn't lead anywhere. I'm sure I have it documented in my old Universe Mode diary thread.

These guys aren't happy.

Year on year, Yuke's has consistently found ways to make their WWE games more dense and feature complete, and from the first details we've gotten on WWE 2K15, that trend is going to continue. Let’s take a broad overview of just what you can expect from this year's outing in the squared circle – both on last-gen and current gen – starting with the new story mode, 2K Showcase.

Last year, WWE 2K14 electrified with its sprawling campaign mode, 30 Years of Wrestlemania. 2K15 is looking to tell a more focused, up-close-and-personal story than the broad historic view offered in 2K14. 2K Showcase will be broken up into two episodes, each one focusing in tightly on an epic rivalry from the WWE’s past. Think of them as mini-documentaries of a sort. Could it be Rock vs Austin? Undertaker vs the DEMON Kane? 2K hasn't spilled the beans just yet, but rest assured we'll be the first to know, and when we do, so will you. If the excellent 30 Years of Wrestlemania was any indication, though, the authenticity of the presentation will make these rivalries a treat to play through.

In addition to reliving these golden WWE memories, you'll finally have a true, discreet career mode for your created wrestlers in MyCareer. This mode has been lifted from NBA 2K14 and adapted to the WWE environment. While I didn't think the mode had the right synergy with the NBA, the WWE seems like a logical place to apply it. Imagine replacing all those cheese-ball, amateur hour characters and cutscenes with authentically voiced and mo-capped WWE Superstars. You get the picture. Exact details of the mode are still forthcoming, but we do know that it will be on the current-gen version only. Sorry, 360/PS3 stalwarts.

No matter what version you play, though, you'll get to enjoy the fruits of Visual Concepts' involvement. Over 50 days worth of motion capture sessions went on at 2K's state-of-the-art mo-cap facility, where WWE Superstars spent hours getting their signature moves digitally recreated. All told, WWE 2K15 features five times (FIVE TIMES! FIVE TIMES!) the animation data of 2K14. Thankfully, just as much effort has gone into improving the way the game sounds, the color commentary in particular. Over four times as many lines were recorded this time around, which should go a long way towards spicing up what has consistently been one of the franchise's presentational low points.

So that's what you can expect in terms of new features and modes. As we get more face time with the game, we'll be diving in deeper on many of these additions, and of course, bringing you footage and detailed impressions of how things differ once you're actually in the ring. Be sure to head here regularly for a steady stream of new IGN First content on WWE 2K15 throughout the month.

Screenshot, as small as it encompasses the overall view, is impressive.

MyCareer also sounds promising. Still reserving judgment for more details, but not off to a bad start.

I'll probably get this since I skipped last year

You didn't miss anything last year. Pretty terrible actually.

Honestly thought that screenshot was a photo!

MyCareer sounds promising, hope that's the "main mode". Not all that fussed about reliving a past rivalry (especially if it's Rock/Austin - they kinda covered that in Attitude Mode and again in 30 Years of Mania).

Just waiting on combat system changes.
