yeah No Mans Land makes me think, Ascension, Maybe Sanity, might get like LOD as legends here, Empire of Tomorrow is gonna be our yearly NXT DLC with a sprinkling of NXT UK for good measure, Then Southpaw which will only work if the showcase mode has custom commentary from Cena and Fandango

There will probably robot and alien versions of WWE superstars lmao. Remember that all of these are weird loving cartoony gimmick things like Swamp Thing Bray, White Walker Aleister, FrankenStrowman, and Snake Man Orton

All goes well and they are going to double down on this gimmicky poo poo when their rosters suddenly starts suffering for...reasons. 2k19 is probably the high water mark for WWE game rosters, all down hill on that front from here.

hey look at it this way, the way 2k has botched marketing this year they will have to make a strong push for their contract renewal next year, I believe their contract ends beginning of FY2021 so realistically any contract talks will have to happen in the next 12 months

EDIT: correction the transitional console agreement ends FY 2022, the actual contract ends in 2025, So pretty much they just have to make games for ps4 and XB1 until 2k22 installment I was wrong and i apologize

I feel like if they're bothering to do Southpaw they bothered to grab them for commentary.

Lol who am I kidding it's going to be the regular commentary team and it's going to be the same terrible lines as every year.

I keep thinking with all the recorded utterances of their commentary guys, they could just cut lines from WWE TV shows and use that instead of the canned "trapped in studio for 8 hours please god kill me" recordings they have now.

Dunno how EA does it, but IIRC the Undisputed games did studio recordings - internet funnyman Seanbaby has mentioned being a writer on them in the past.

I only have hope for commentary on the showcase thats supposed to come with every pack, scripted commentary on just specific stars sounds like it shouldnt be too hard to do, using those stars in exibition i have no doubt we get normal commentary, but i would love for either an all new show being done through showcase or just give us lethal leap year actually happening (bonus points if this is the final dlc and it comes out in febuary since its a leap year)

Edit: the lack of jericho in the company makes me think the italian site might have been full of it though

Read this real quick as cyberpunk tito santana and i like that idea alot more

Also just to add chynas entrance went up today, i can forgive the fact that it looks like a roided up stephanie cuz they have shown difficulty with sculpting deceased superstars in the past, what is unforgivable though is the fact that her bazooka looks like it is shooting up a single sparkler on either side

Haven't played them in years, but I remember a lot of Undisputed commentator soundbites taken straight from fights, particularly the Huerta/Garcia fight from '07.

Perhaps it was a bit of A and a bit of B.

Nothing about the game announced so far is making me feel like i can justify my preorder, chyna is a disappointment we still dont have a soundtrack or full roster, im kinda pumped for female my career but there isnt any real info on that for i know in the next 28 days they could dump a ton of info but right now im feeling more let down than normal

I figured they'd try to lead with online multiplayer because that's where the big money is, they're loving 2K, and they won't be able to nickel and dime you on hats and Special Attribute Packs if the core online multiplayer isn't worth spending any time with at all (as has been the case forever). But it's also the one thing conceptually where like...I have no idea how to fix it.

If I'm running around all the time and spamming stupid moves because I want to win the game, and you think that's dumb as poo poo because that's not how wrestling works, even if you kick my rear end because I'm bad you're still not going to have a good time.

Oh yeah the blinding white along with the barely noticable red that was a bonehead design choice and i hope whoever made it was sacked,beaten, and sacked again.

Edit: upon looking again i notice the online menu has a section for 2k originals, im hoping that doesnt mean that the DLC is only usable online for me getting the pc version it doesnt matter much but console players needing to shell out the yearly online fee to play those stories would be depressingly stupid
