I preordered Cyberpunk and Witcher 3 and never once felt foolish for it. History has made me a winner!

They had a Gamergater social media manager for a while, though, which prompted me to boycott all video games forever, just to be on the safe side.

I make an exception every year to purchase the yearly instalment of WWE 2k, a franchise managed by a publisher who respects its customers just enough to make sure the game barely works and treats its developers so well they leave.

Someone please make a Virtual Pro Referee, that's all I want in a wrestling game. Maybe a game with the promoter yelling in your ear piece and having to deal with wrestlers going business for themselves.

DLC for 2k20 confirmed, not liking that the southpaw DLC looks as flashy as it does, the youtube series always put it out there as this little garbage indy, the whole wrestling ring in the middle of a pool like the old Nitro spring break episodes doesnt fit in my opinion

Yeah I am stupid enough to buy these games on day 1 doesn't mean everyone has to, worst case scenario on your next day off run to your closest redbox and spend 3 bucks to play the game for 24 hours if the wackyness is tempting you but you are unsure, the game will be in redbox on 10-29 according to the Email i got earlier

Think of the new sets less as sets and more as pieces for the arena creator. The one huge thing this series has going for it is it's dolly dress up functionality. You can make just about anything, and what you can't make is available on Community Creations (at least on Ps4).

The insane thing about the game is that after you make your stuff, the part where you smash them together is not fun, at best, and a chore at worst.

Yeah not so much on PC on the flip side of that though, PC you can jam in old character models and movesets from previous games, and you have the ability to inject any music you want over the god awful generic themes and update themes and trons for wrestlers who happen to get changes done during the year


The southpaw one just worries me because like the youtube series was so off the wall and like obvious that it was a garbage promotion, the set dressing for the DLC makes me think more "what if Lethal Leap Year actually happened and was a huge success" although I will say the fact that bray does commentary in one of the Bump in the Night towers, we might get Cena and Fandango on commentary on Southpaw

that's assuming these are actually in the arena creator, last year they had a fake tokyo dome and a fake korakuen hall but you couldn't use either of them for custom arenas

They did add 4 parts to CAA with bump in the night but its just like a cage a wagon a fountain and a tree, and they dont look right in an actual arena

The more i look at these arena renders, wasteland looks like it comes with a custom HiaC, southpaw is looking better looking at it more its like a hotel with tons of neon it kinda fits the 80s theme but it just looks a little too high class for what we know of southpaw, and tomorrow just makes me think TRON

I am as guilty as anyone of buying these games over the years. But I find myself playing them less, and I find that little highs of enjoyment I get from them to be more and more fleeting. This game looks worse and also of a kind with every other game in the series for this console generation. I have been waiting for these games to turn around quality wise since SVR06, and outside of a few features here and there, they have never equaled that game again, and that game was not really as enjoyable the game two years prior. The series needs a lot of work, and I am sick of pretending like this year is the time it will be different.

I would argue that 06 and substitute 07, SVR 07 the first one on 360 was a great game

Yeah I maybe misspoke a bit, I really liked 06, even though in hindsight I like HCTP more. 07 on the other hand, I liked it to a degree, but If I remember right, it was the first game to have the weird multiple choice grapples, and they were broken until the next year. Also it was maybe the first with meter style royal rumbles, which I hated. Also for some reason people took damage way too fast in it.

Yeah those are some valid points, HCTP was the best game after No Mercy, but I hope we can all agree that 08 was a train wreck

Yeah that's way too flashy for Southpaw. Having it around a pool would be fine but there's no way they could afford that much neon.

Unless they had to fire the paid Ric Flair Impersonator :ohdear:

I think 07 also had that stupid "weight detection" restriction on all the wrestlers, so HBK, who was classified as a cruiserweight, couldn't pick up the noticeably smaller Joey Mercury, because Mercury was classified as a heavyweight.

It also had a broken GM mode, where if you played through a match, the result would show up on the other brand's show.

Yeah basically the restriction meant anyone two weight classes lower than the person they were attacking basically couldn't do poo poo.

So naturally people online would just play as Khali who was in his own Ultra-Heavyweight Class, meaning you couldn't slam, kick, or clothesline him unless you were Super-Heavyweight

That i do remember, every CAW online was superheavyweight as well since there were no restrictions other than you couldnt be lifted
