More names have been confirmed, if anyone actually cares:
- Bret "Hitman" Hart - Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart - Yokozuna ( )- Mr Fuji - Honky Tonk Man ( ) - Jake "The Snake" Roberts ( )- "Ravishing" Rick Rude ( )- King Kong Bundy - Nikolai Volkoff - Kamala - Hunter Hearst Helmsley ![]() The roster is shaping up to be pretty decent, shame about the rest of the game. |

Wow...HHH Classic. If they are doing that, then they must be filling it with mid-90s IC guys.

In all honesty, the roster's kinda cool. I mean you can't go wrong with icons from a time where we were so enthralled with the product. Dare I say it's similar to SFHDRemix. Unlike that game, we're getting a bastardized gameplay mechanic that's comprised of QTEs up the ass. Then there's the whole Rewrite-Relive-Redefine laziness that really should insult the casual wrestling-game fan.
Other than all that, I'm actually down with 'Blue Blood' Hunter. |

There are too many notable exceptions though...
Anderson without Blanchard? Where are Demolition? Obviously Savage, but we know all about that... Sid? He did main event two Manias. Snuka? Appeared at a few Manias, and was involved in the main event at the first one. In fact, same for Orndorff. Is Tito Santana in this game? He appeared at 9 Manias (OK, one was a dark match, but still...) |

I know they won't do it, but the game would be well worth full price if they made the entire roster and at least a few arenas transferable to SvR10 (or even 09).

The same way they're doing it for 09.

Yeah, that'd be cool. Problem is I think we're probably only 13 months away from Legends Of WrestleMania 2009

Reckon we'll get any arenas other than old Mania venues? Like WWF Superstars of Wrestling, Wrestling Challenge and Saturday Night's Main Event?

I'm all for a WWE endorsed Legends game, but if they make a sequel, it should either focus on a different big 4 PPV (Legends of SummerSlam?) or just be a general Legends game. And to really do it justice, it needs more than 40 on the roster.

It only seems slightly good because the last 3 years have been shite.
If this was following HCTP, it would have been panned. |

Final roster was revealed at IGN.
No Diesel, Razor Ramon, or Randy Savage and worst of all, NO SID.

You know, Sid not being in this game is a crime.
After all, a shitty game isn't complete without the king of the shits. |

Can live without Diesel, Razor and Sid, but NO SAVAGE! Pretty weak, if they can sort things out with Warrior, why not Savage?

No bullshit, the gameplay looks like WCW Nitro. Camera angle and all.

So am I the only person looking forward to this? I've preordered it, and I don't think it looks that bad.
Anyone know if this game offers any DLC(although going by SVR we wouldn't get it anyway) or alternate attires(maybe for different eras?) I have to say I'm quite taken back that Eddie isn't in this game. |

TBH I can see these being unlockable in-game anyway.
I'd like to see a whole host of alts though. Like ministry Taker, possibly nWo or 'current' Hogan, 98 DX HBK, Corporate Bossman etc. If I'm honest I'd like to see everyone with at least one alt attire. Legends of Wrestling, although a shoddy game, had 4 attires per character. That to me shows that its possible for them to look at a wrestlers history and pick out more than one attire. Hell, if they struggle with some of them they could just pull a WWF Warzone/Attitude and make them up |

I dunno, but if you've never heard of it it probably is.

True, and enable backstage areas like the Barber Shop.

hey i don't know if this was posted yet so don't flame but if anyone watched all the episodes on IGN then you'll see there is no "JIMMY SNUKA" but if you go on to the WWE site and click on "lengends of wrestlemania game" you'll see a "JIMMY SNUKA" picture amongst them. now what i was wondering is there more than what they shown for example hidden characters you got to unlock and if so it would seem he is one.
so could this be a mix up or did they mess up and accidently put "JIMMY SNUKA" there. |

"JIMMY SNUKA" is in the game.
"JIMMY SNUKA" is indeed a legend. "JIMMY SNUKA". "JIMMY SNUKA". "JIMMY SNUKA". Last edited by Xero; 02-18-2009 at 06:31 PM. |

Could be either. TBH, I hope its a fuck up by WWE.com, because that would somewhat confirm that there are hidden characters that IGN don't want to reveal. I'd love to be able to get the game and start unlocking characters that I didn't know where in the game.

Hmmm... good point. I really can't be bothered to go through the videos again. So either "BODYSLAM" missed him, or IGN skipped over him.
