Thanks for saving us or me from the frustration when I come to that match storyline.HHH vs Kane in a cage where you have to win via exiting and do a stupid 10 punch corner thing.
FUCK THISCOMPANYGAME
E: never mind, I didn't realise you could exit the door. Faux cage matches

Do a grapple at the turnbuckle near the door to trigger the animation to get out. Took me 4 or 5 replays to realise you could even do it.
The game is filled with little things like that where you think it needs to be tougher than it is. Just awkward phrasing on some of the missions.

I thought the game was broken when I fought Bulldog, heh. The rest before and after was smooth sailing... But once he's critical, he should lie down long enough for the elbow drops.
Bearer is also harder than he should be. He went down with only 3 seconds on the clock, after a vicious beating. Finishers within 10 secs are easy so far, but its because I keep working on the opponent until he's walking around in agony.
For the the most difficult objective had to be hitting Hawk with the Belt before the ref gets up.
The problem is that there isn't fierce competition for WWE anymore. WCW really made its mark and forced WWE to come up with something brilliant in order to survive. Although WCW might've self destructed anyway, that nWo thing became completely ridiculous and Goldberg was just a shallow and skilless hack like Warrior.

finished attitude era

doubt WWE will ever be as good as that era
so many stars, roster was stacked, great storylines, great moments
i wonder which era THQ will focus on for wwe 14

Just spent 6 attempts trying to do a Jericho challenge. Had to do a liontamer followed by a power bomb through a table in 4 minutes. I screamed, I cried, I was relieved I'll never have to do it again.

All you have to do to realize just how bad modern WWE is is to sit down and compare the rosters nowadays to the old games to see the completely obvious drop offs that have been happening since the attitude era.
WWE '13 (modern guys):
Epico
Ted DiBiase
Triple H
Undertaker (Shaved Head)
Jinder Mahal
Wade Barrett
Zack Ryder
Current Divas
Alicia Fox
Beth Phoenix
Brie Bella
Eve
Kelly Kelly
Kharma
Nikki Bella

For the custom music on Xbox, do you have to write it to a CD as music or can you just dump it all onto the CD in file format still?

On that note, what happens if you use custom music online? Do they hear nothing or can you pick a different song for online?

Bulldog was hard for me because it was still an early match in the campaign and I haven't played a wrestling game in forever. He also comes out with a stored finisher and kept hitting me with it at the worst times in all my retries.
Hawk is easier to hit if you get the belt before you trigger the point to use it. I also initially forgot which one was Hawk since the game doesn't have HUD names and I never heard the commentary mention one of their names. It's been awhile since I've seen a Road Warriors match.

I don't think the fact WWE doesn't need to beat head to head competition anymore is the only culprit.
The territories are gone. Most of the big name guys had a decade of experience before coming to the WWF and it wasn't in high school gyms. They aren't buying up all their competition and getting their top young guys in their primes (I guess they could buy TNA one day and get those guys). A lot of guys who are gifted athletically and physically imposing that used to do football or amateur wrestling now go into MMA instead of going into pro wrestling. As such, they hand pick kids, send them into development, and drop them into their shows after a couple years, if that. People don't make it to the top because they have all of the looks, the physical skills, the ability to get themselves over, or have the will, love, and desire for the business.
You still have some guys who have all of the above, but their numbers are smaller and smaller every year. It's not that none of the guys around now couldn't have made it big in the Attitude era, it's that the crucible that made guys reach their full potential isn't really around anymore. The Attitude era was a convergence of a bunch of different factors happening all at once that I don't think we'll see again.
I posted about this in the other thread because it is hardest mission to complete (primarily because the powerbomb has poor collision detection with the table).
The best way to do this is to hit the Liontamer, release, do the three powerbombs to keep him down, set up a table in the corner, irish whip Road Dogg into the table, press the strike button to pull him off the table, then do the finisher powerbomb to put him through it. It's the best way to get everything to line up.

What does WWE '12 have to do with this game's roster and the Attitude Era? 'm pretty sure the wrestlers you just named are listed as Legends in that game and have nothing to do with it's story mode. Nash being in this game is based off his feud with CM Punk, and Vader actually was a part of the Attitude Era.
Oh yeah. Pete Gas, Rodney, and the Goodfather are right up there with Bret Hart.

Is created stuff exclusive to the console you use?
I was under the assumption it was the same list for both.

Yep. Community Creations is seperated between PS3 and 360. Things you see on 360 won't be on PS3 unless someone puts it up there.

The average age is ridiculously high, something like over 40. But I imagine toys and such probably make some decent revenue, enough for them to still want to keep kids.

You hear the song you have but everyone else hears silence.
Holy shit, is anyone else noticing a severe lack of two counts? Seriously, do a one on one match and go for a pin after every move until you win with your finisher. All one counts. Apparently there is a huge uproar about it at the THQ forums. I didnt notice it until someone had mentioned it to me, but now I'm seeing it's true. The only time I've seen a two count outside of Attitude Era mode is when using a leverage pin.
So I just got to the Stone Cold portion of the attitude era. I do Austin's Signiture and Stunner and they blurred out Austin flipping off his opponent? REALLY????? Why even include the Attitude Era and Austin in the game let alone PROGRAM HIS CHARACTER to flip people off and then BLUR IT????
Is there anyway to turn off the stupid ass blur?

Oh god what a pain in the ass that was! Was bad enough having to build up to get a liontamer on him, then making sure I could line up a powerbomb that would connect. Whole thing was janky. Must of taken me like an hour or so sadly for this. Really soured on me for what was mostly a great mode.

Lame. They should let you pick an on-disc song for them to hear.

Agreed. Why not just create the kind of match you want though? Besides the long wait for someone to join.
On the subject of Tag Team matches, I dominated in my past two 6-Man Elimination Tag matches with Brock Lesnar...then proceeded to get myself DQed (on purpose) seeing as no one actually seemed to care about the match.
That's not really the case. I actually believe a few times on commentary, they mentioned that they were "new and improved" versions, but that could just be my memory messing with me.
I notice it too. That and the AI constantly using the Irish Whip are the regular glitches I found so far.

Was funny on the creation thing reading what can be downloaded and saw the storyline:
"Who violated Cena?"
This game is doing good work.

This game is doing good work.
I really like how the game plays. But this "cheese" is just horrible. I had put in about 7-8 matches with a couple of other GAF dudes on Friday night and it was so much fun. Player and Ranked matches are just terrible, though. I hope it gets better, or that I just get used to reversing the clotheslines/running DDT's.

It was fun until (I think) the last match which is a fatal four way against Godfather, Vader and Khali where you play Cena and have to win.
I have no interest in playing Cena.

I saw my brother attempt that challenge, and it's really difficult. The only issue is performing his power bomb through a table. How did you do it? I mean the power bomb through the table?

I set up a table outside the ring and just got lucky doing the move in the right spot. It took many, many attempts.

Yeah, much of the fanbase were indoctrinated during the age of Hogan and the Attitude Era. They tend to get upset about the way a lot of talent is handled and dumb storylines, but the thing is, treating talent poorly and making stupid stories divorced of logic has always been a part of American wrestling. And always will be.

I finished the Jericho challenge on my second attempt, I thought I wasn't going to pull it off. I guess I was lucky.
