yo on the MMA side, we need to spend a few moments talking about EA UFC.
Pros:
-use the cage to do funny kicks and punches
-landing a submission is satisfying as hell
-cool blocking mechanics

Cons:
-very arcadey, expect to throw 100 strikes per round
-goofy capoeria movesets
-no cagewalking
-ref standups are spastic as gently caress
-no sprinting
-no pride mode

The chances of getting a high level diva card are pretty drat low because of their sample size in cards. Which sucks because you absolutely need:
-a decent matched tag team
-another matched tag team that you can use as individuals
-a diva.

This game has made me realize I want to see a Daniel Bryan/Randy Orton tag team happen. They could go indie as gently caress with the tandem moves.

They built the consoles along the all-in-one box philosophy and as such they probably envisioned streaming music from a hard drive as being more forward-thinking than ripping files directly. Lack of the feature was something that PS4 owners aired their grievances over pretty early and Sony was caught flat-footed. They promised to implement it at some point in the future, but that was over a year ago.

easiest way to get around it is to have a way to for games to link to your amazon prime/itunes/whatever account and let you use the music you have rights to on there.

they're not going to because Skyrim has actual modding tools and this game won't. there will be some basic stuff but don't get your hopes up for a ton of crazy mods.

Wasn't it the 2k NBA that someone mod together a looney toons team and they made it a DLC pack shortly afterwards?

JR and Lawler always sound so enthused when they're doing VO work.

I'm surprised WWE hasn't forked over mic only audio for Yukes or whoever to splice and play with. Given a large enough sample size, you could probably invent new material out it(think like Siri). But you know innovation, hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

fired up EA UFC and did a career mode with my newest HW prospect Big "Jumbo" Johnson. First match in dude catches a kick and dumps me, thai style. Holy crap.

Yeah, the gameplay has been polished up to be much more decent. The real problem is there still isn't that much to do in the game. The career mode is super-repetitive, the create-a-fighter is too thin to have any real fun with and there's no ladder/title/etc. modes, so it's basically just "well, do you want to play career mode again or go online?"

Still, if you like punching people, worth the discounted price.

Its great fun with friends. The controls are right enough that my super mashy friends can hold their own evenly against super fighting game nerds.

I hope next year they'll make the damage model a little more realistic. Landing 4 jabs and followed by overhand right should wobble a dude at least.
