The music thing is more of a little humor, but I said a a few posts back. I wanted to hear about game modes before anything. Now all we need is Slobber knocker/Beat the Streak type mode, and throw in Trish and Lita for divas Z* I like using the divas* And I'll be set. |

LOL, how did Nintendo end up categorizing WWF WM 2000 as a "Nintendo Sports" game?
I mean, I love pro wrestling as much as the next hardcore fan, but COME ON. .. |

IGN has apparently gotten back the roster reveal duties rather than THQ/2k doing one reveal "special".
Looks like they'll be gradually unveiling the roster. They're revealing 12 people this week. Apparently the link has been removed (probably got posted early by mistake) but someone snapped up this picture from the article. |

Yea......
Looked great last year too (well, the shots they showed). It will be best if they actually scanned everyone and not just "big names". Also would like to "see it in action" to really determine if physics have improved as they claim. |

Nah, physics look exactly the same
Also concerning it wasn't playable at Gamescom this year. Even the delayed 2k15 was, so either not on time again, or don't want to admit just yet it's almost exactly the same game as last year. |

To be fair, Balor's movements were spot on for him. Still though, will have to play it before I buy it this time.

And the 12 revealed this week are:
Booker T Colonel Mustafa Emma Eva Marie General Adnan Kalisto Kane Lord Steven Regal Sin Cara Summer Rae Tamina Triple H lol...Lord Steven, Adnan, and Mustafa. Basically they're just taking DLC characters from last year and putting them into the regular game. I guess I'd still rather have Lord Steven Regal than inexplicably jet-black hair Regal. |

We get our current roster, then a bunch of old wrestlers. Same as last year. And the year before that. And the year before that. And the year before that.... |

I love checking out the roster as much as the next guy. Fun entrances, music and PYRO!! Problem every year is that they really focus on the roster reveal and not much else. Sweet, Kalisto and Eva Marie are in.....now what about the replay factor that they're missing every year? Will WM feel like the "Showcase of the Immortals" or will it be another house show but with titles up for grabs? Will Universe be fun and streamlined with some secret or character specific stories and decisions or will it be match after match of the same thing just with a different stipulation every week?
So far I don't see anything to get excited about since it seems they're on track to do the same thing they've done the last 3-4 years: Tweak the gameplay slightly, switch out one Showcase for another and....that's about it. |

Sports games have a built in replay value. It's competition. They don't have to do anything to keep that alive except make sure Multiplayer doesn't suck a major dick.
WWE Universe mode won't be any more fun. |

We'll see how this turns out. Probably rent it before I spend the $60+ on it. Honestly the lack of custom music is really making me not want to buy this at all. Customization has always been my favorite part of the WWE games, and it doesn't sound like this one is even coming close to the older games.

Last years game wasn't bad. It looking the same isn't a bad thing. Madden looks the same every year.

Let's be fair. You're gonna watch that entrance like, 3 times and then just skip it after that cause its too fucking long

Maybe casual players who don't give a millionth of a fuck about a "wrasslin'" game will do that, but it's just pretentious and annoying that you automatically assume everyone will. SMDH |

This isnt Madden, we watch WWE for the story as much as the competition. No story in online. I'm sure lots of people like it, but I've never cared for it in a wrestling game.

Just got a random neg rep from MoFo, for a post in this thread that I posted over a month ago.
Apparently, he "didn't care" about what I had to say. Fair enough, I guess. |

The entrances are hilarious in their own right. Not even the live crowd looks at them and the fact that they still use camera cuts because they can't work out how to make a model walk from out of the actual opening since WWE changed to the generic set is hilarious. |

This is what frustrates me in the past; in order to add new stuff in they'd remove a bunch of other stuff. Massive hype over being able to fight in the crowd, only for that to be removed 2 games later. These games should be progressive, we shouldn't have an either/or situation. I'm glad to see certain things return (like rope-assist pin, arguing with the Ref, pre-match, post-match stuff) but it bugs me that they went away in the first place. Other franchises, particularly sports games, tend to build on what came before. You'll never get a FIFA game where there are less teams/leagues to choose from for example. They get progressively bigger. That's what I want from my WWE game. |

To be honest a lot of sports games do the same shit. At times more egregiously.

Do agree that the series itself has serious problems when it comes to consistency with features or expanding things. Even the idea of something as basic as "ref counting to 2" for pins was touted as something big for WWE 2k14 because of how badly it was botched in WWE 13. |

Wait what?
If you preorder you can see the full roster? Won't the first person that does it post it online, negating the whole bonus? Or did I just massively misinterpret that. |
