WWE 2K

Just tried a Championship Scramble, same deal; CPU recovers in time to break up every pin and as luck would have it, every time they didn't I either got a two count or was too close to the ropes. Not much fun at all. I really hope it's fixed or you're given some better tools to deal with the CPU in those situations, obviously there won't be anything forcing you to play those modes in exhibition/WWE Universe mode if you don't want to but no doubt they'll show up some way in Road to Wrestlemania to be a stumbling block.

The game still has that quick CPU recovery after that groggy animation it seems.

What about Daniel Bryan? I thought he was going to be DLC?

He was supposed to be in instead of Gabriel, but they stopped working on him when they found he was released. He has a chance of making the third pack though.

Hopefully there are some suitable CAP parts/entrances for him regardless.

yea, F that...

I wish they would go the "NBA" game route and have all the missing wrestlers as "CAWs" but on the disc. 2010 sucked without an official Sheamus and he was the damn champ for most of the past year.

Depends what WWE stipulated, of course. It'd be nice if they could get him into a DLC pack but if they've got some moves left in the game there should at least be some decent CAWs. Far from perfect but better than nothing, I guess.

Saw the Natalya and Maryse. Good job. Confused at Cody Rhodes too.

EDIT: What's up with Mickie James?

Pre-ordered the game from Dungeon Crawl as they'd sent me a voucher. It means I'll likely not be playing it on release day but got a much better price than I would from any of my local stores.

i'm guessing alberto del rio came in too late as well

I hope so, Qballer.

I hope so, Qballer.

wat?

And yeah, he did.

don't worry, he's just a hater... but you already know that.

Doesn't sound like Del Rio is in the DLC packs either.

Three downloadable content packs have been confirmed. The first pack will be available at release and adds Halloween-themed attires for Kelly Kelly and Rey Mysterio and online multiplayer mode. Two other packs of downloadable content will be released later. One pack contains the playable characters British Bulldog, Lex Luger, Wade Barrett, David Otunga, Justin Gabriel and Layla, alternate attires for Shad Gaspard and Shawn Michaels and the NXT Arena. The other pack includes alternate attires for John Cena, The Undertaker and CM Punk as well as a WCW Arena. THQ has offered players a package deal to purchase these three downloadable content packs beforehand.

RVD and Steamboat are in. Whaaaaat.

Steamboat's not particularly surprising but RVD's inclusion is definitely unexpected given he's currently in TNA. I guess that deal was made before he joined TNA in March.

RVD!!

RVD!!

Fan Axxess - Your Ticket to ALL DLC

It also gives an overview of the DLC packs that will be available. Notably, no Daniel Bryan so we're probably out of luck there this year.

I do like the idea of DLC that unlocks all the unlockables. I'd prefer it if it were a free code but if I'm struggling to unlock everything by the time I'm starting to grow weary of the game or if I'm not feeling some of the RTWM stories and don't want to play through them just to unlock some alternate attire, it's nice to have that option.

Seen a bit of Raw with the Bragging Rights preview, err, seems like Barrett doesn't look like himself in-game?

IGN Review.

Ouch. 8/10

i love how 8/10 is "bad" now. seems like epic games have become the norm.

pretty good review and just because of the universe integration and havoc physics I really want it.....but just like last year, I want it cheap.

It's just that game reviewers, especially bad ones like IGN score on a 7-10 scale.
