Who always so much DLC? What's their excuse?

With that many characters I would assume they ran out of disc space. Not really an excuse but passing the storage burden to consumers and making a quick buck from it seems like it would be the easiest resolution.

Is there a reason the models look worse? I can understand if it is a trade between speed or more people in the ring but I haven't seen any of that.

 

[brumx]

Ryback is DLC lol he should be free since we will probably be on cover next year

 

[Bruce Lee Kicks]

What is that first pic of Punk from?

 

[HarryDemeanor]

What is that first pic of Punk from?

The TV ad.

 

[Kaladin]

What is that first pic of Punk from?

The reveal trailer.

 

[Data West]

Also, first time the game's cover has a heel as the main character. Even HCTP was released when Brock turned face

 

[BlazinAm]

damn they have his entrance but not dean ambrose annoying -.-

How the hell did you stack so many gif on top of each other?

 

[Haunted]

They're there to make money.

At least they're honest about it instead of being lying pieces of shit PR double talkers like other companies.

 

[Hoarr]

The updates of this game and following the community manager on Twitter really turned me on this one. I'll pick it up through Gamefly next week, but I don't have any high hopes of it being better than WWE '12 (and that one was terrible!).

Regardless, here's a photo of The Rock and Mankind holding Nintendo 64 controllers:

[BosSin]

Quick, someone post the Brett Hart comparison shots

 

[Kaladin]

This might be worth putting in the OP:

Done, but I got it from the official source with US prices.

 

[IdreamofHIME]

All those DLC moves....

and Ryback is a DLC character? The guy could be the next WWE champ...and he's not in the game?
Same for the US champion? What a cluster**** of a mess.

Can't wait for someone more competent to make WWE games once THQ goes bust.

 

[Kaladin]

FYI, some of the models.....

actually look damn good.

 

[Hoarr]

Quick, someone post the Brett Hart comparison shots

Boom:

Also:

I think we're all ready to go now.

 

[Snaku]

Wait...Attitude era Jericho doesn't do the Lionsault?

 

[Fox Mulder]

Hahaha

Oh fuck that booker t looks like a shitty caw.

The last wwe game I played was one on the GameCube. I played the shit out of them on the n64, but I was into wrestling at the time. I might redbox this to see if it's still fun. Kind of funny how they're hyping up the attitude era in the game while keeping it tame for the kids. Kids are pussies these days.

 

[FallingEdge]

Has more to do with money than anything. Plus with Linda running for a Senate position, they need to look clean cut.

 

[GQman2121]

That DLC structure is appalling. If you purchase that shit the suits at THQ are laughing at you and plotting what to hold out of the next game to charge you for.....

 

[IC_Champion]

What a maneuver!

 

[dragonflys545]

I've bought literally all the WWE game. I'm so freaking tired of the same shit every year. Not buying it day one.

ROFL they blurred the middle finger part of Vince stunner... YOU freaking serious?????

 

[Majukun]

now wwe universe seems at least decent..but it's ridicolous that took them 3 edition of the game mode to make it actually worth playing

 

[Onion_Relish]

All this extra character dlc is fine and all, but seriously, dude love, cactus jack and mankind? IT'S ALL THE SAME GUY

Shoutouts to Val venus though. Best character ever.

 

[Snaku]

.

 

[Conrad Link]

I would buy a Yes! shirt for my Xbox avatar, why is there no Yes! shirt on the stupid store? :\

[TheBear]

'12 was a bag of shit. No way I'm being fooled into buying this shit again.

 

[Zep]

Hoping for a black friday sale where this ends up being $30. I'd pay that just for the attitude mode.

They blurred middle fingers in the recaps during Attitude Era all the time...

 

[Guzim]

What a maneuver!

1, 2, 3. He got him! No he didn't!

 

[Downhome]

If you don't preorder, can you still get Mike Tyson somehow?

 

[A Pretty Panda]

3 Triple Hs

 

[Spider from Mars]

3 Triple Hs

I know...the game should have had at least 6 or 7.

 

[dragonflys545]

3 Triple Hs

3 same pedigree finishers.

 

[brumx]

and they did not put his RPG music

 

[Kaladin]

I'm looking forward to the potential of six on six matches with Trio H on one side.

Hmmm.....

Trio H vs Kane/Kane/Daniel Bryan ( Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeell NO)

 

[dubq]

If you don't preorder, can you still get Mike Tyson somehow?

I'm assuming he'll be released as standard DLC at some point. Probably in the new year..

 

[antitrop]

Oh my God, it looks like a PS2 game.

 

[Cousteau]

DLC belts?
Dumb.
Faces arent impressive either.
Its 2012.

Pass.

 

[Bread]

stone cold e.t. needs to be in it

then ill buy

 

[dubq]

It's all about the graffix!

 

[brumx]

Well I have seen better graphics on PSP

 

[Ken Masters]

this looks like it could be fun but holy shit these graphics look horrible, there is no excuse for graphics in 2012 to be looking like this

 

[Orca]

No Goldberg aside from Goldberg 2.0, aka Ryback?

 

[dubq]

this looks like it could be fun but holy shit these graphics look horrible, there is no excuse for graphics in 2012 to be looking like this

Did you say horrible or hyperbole?

 

[Backflip]

I've been wondering something about WWE games DLC. Two years ago, we got the WCW Nitro arena DLC and the next year the game had a story about WCW. Last year, we had a bunch of Attitude Era wrestlers as DLC and this year's game is about the Attitude Era. Is this year's DLC a clue about next year's theme?

 

[billy beane]

Wait, Too Cool is in this game?

Fuck, now I have to buy this.

 

[Roland Deschain]

Are those comparison shots real? It so, what the fuck.
And DLC moves? Really THQ?

 

[Callo Merlose]

haha, damn! Goldust as DLC. The last wrestling game I bought was Attitude. I'll take the wait-and-see approach.

 

[Jamie OD]

I've been conditioned to anticipate a new wrestling game at this time of year so I'm looking forward to it. I bet I'll think it's great for the first week, start getting bothered by its faults the second week and then learn to despise the game halfway through week 3.

Oh well, if the community creations deliver (which they usually do) and the servers don't die then I'll enjoy the game.
