I have a special place in my heart for the early Smackdown games, because it was so easy for people to be eliminated in the royal rumbles.

Oh god that'd be shitty :|

Man, I'd probably buy a new WWE game if it had the old grapple and attitude meter. I love the customization and all that jazz WWE 12 has, but not really digging the finisher/grapple system

buy fire pro wrestling returns, it's probably 5 dollars, I think I paid 10 for it.

DGUSA Open the Freedom Gate champion Johnny Gargano was taken to a hospital via ambulance last night following his match against Ricochet. The word was Gargano was kept overnight due to an injury but it wasn't exactly clear what that injury was. He was released this morning and flew home to Ohio.

At least that last part is an update to what was posted here earlier, good to know that Gargano was at least ok enough to fly home.

HCTP Royal rumble was a multiplayer classic, the fear of elimination was so much hihger before the ring out bars came in, One time I went from number 1 to victory with Vince McMahon and felt like a God.

Smackdown had the right ideas but did it wrong. The contenders list on SMACKDOWN 2, the rating list for Smackdown 1. But title matches never happened. I love playing as the promoter. I wish WWE '12 allow you to change the whole card in one sitting instead of backing out of each match.
 
As I said in the THQ thread it sucks to hear about people losing their jobs. Now I'm interested to see who picks up the WWE license. I hope whoever picks it up makes a good one.

Haha! I'm... kind of embarrassed to admit how many times I turned off my PS2 during story mode trying to win at #1 in story...
 
I want AKI/Syn Sophia to make another wrestling game, but have Bioware write the dialogue. Choose your own pipebombs!

So Paragon and Renegade are replaced by Face and Heel? earning enough heel points gives you the burial option for promos and having enough face points gives the ultimate respect option.

That'd be great! Also, your CAW should get awful speech options when first starting out like "BASKETBALLS DON'T HOLD GRUDGES."

I guess?

but rather than making it a permanent choice, you can change to be heel/face later
 
No Mercy had the best Royal Rumble mechanics. You had to pound on them after they were thrown over the rope, or use a strong attack right when they hit the ropes to knock them over instantly. It was a bit more realistic than the alternative: having a stupid gauge that depletes during a button mashing minigame when the wrestler is on the ropes.

This reminds me of the amazing voice clip previews in previous SD games...
"I'll live but they're not gonna get off that easy"
"Get out of the way pal, I don't have time for games!"

I just remembered the renegade interruptions, that would work great mid promo as a heel action, i'm now convinced this would be a good idea for a CAW single player mode at the very least

Amen to that. Also, if you did it at the same time you did a test of strength but it was rare in No Mercy.

There should be an achievement for interrupting HHH and not getting buried as a result of the following promo war.

HHH would future endeavor your game data and steal your achievements if you failed.

BAH GAWD, RANDY ORTON DONE TOOK SHEAMUS TO THE ABYSS
This was my thought upon watching the video as well, SD games do make for good glitches at least.

It's....It's Eddie. #Grisham

No seriously, it's the 2005 Rumble. Speaking of which anyone remember the commercial?

And this is still one of my favourite ppv promos, just the right amount of madness to it without coming across as going too far.
 
With Dork Knight now working at EA, I feel it is single handedly up to him to save wrestling games from mediocrity.

If EA picks up the license, I will personally make sure the game doesn't suck. Or at least I would do everything I can in my power to try. Which may not be a whole lot. But like John Cena, I NEVER GIVE UP!!

I'm sure it was the Game Boy Color version.
 
Has anyone played this TNA Impact iOS game?

Barry Windham is going in before Ole Anderson? I know Barry Windham was a great Horsemen, but Ole was there from the beginning.

Ole is such a dick he'd turn down the opportunity if asked. Plus, I don't think it was Ole's Horsemen that held every major title in the NWA simultaneously.
 
Vince hates Savage and Ole Anderson, and they hate(d) him. He would never be included in the HoF.

well Vince didnt mind letting Savage back into there video games, making new Savage toy's, using savage in the advertising of those toys and even making a DVD about savages career.


I wont be shocked if he makes it into the HOF this year just to get it out of the way and people can stop asking about it.

Its that or waiting for Vince to die/retire but then we dont know if Stephanie or even HHH has a grudge against the guy.

I thought Vince and Savage squash the beef before Savage death?
 
Savage being in the All Stars video game or having action figures made in recent years doesn't prove anything. From what I understand, the video game or toy company decides who they want to use/make, and they get WWE to okay the names. Then they contact the wrestler in question and try to work out a deal with him. The Warrior had plenty of action figures made of him in recent years, and he's not on good terms with Vince. If I recall, he talked about the figures being made and said he agreed to it because his fans wanted it and he worked with Jakks, not WWE, to make it happen. Vince giving the okay to use Savage might mean something, or might not.

I know the nasty rumor is that there an affair with Savage and underage Steph, but I just don't believe that, if not only because Vince would have hit Randy with the wrath of God if it was true. Vince was sexually abused as a child, and I know he wouldn't stand for his daughter going through the same thing. But for awhile, I did believe it; it had to be something really bad for the WWE to completely ignore the Macho Man, his matches and his accomplishments for years up until recently.
