I know there are various preorders available for 2K15, but has anyone heard anything about possible system bundles? I think (assuming the reviews are great), I'll wind up getting a PS4 for this game, but it'd be great if a bundle were going to exist to get it all at once.

10am PST/1pm EST here: http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/08/12/ign-live-presents-wwe-2k15-roster-reveal Forgot it was 10 PST and thought I missed the whole thing already. Hopefully it's fun with the people they have involved, although the actual gameplay we've seen lately doesn't leave much to be desired. At least the wrestlers actually look like themselves, yeah? I really want to see this year's Ryback versus last year's monstrosity.

"He just looks like a nice guy!" I love the banter when these guys can just go out and have fun. Sheamus typically bores me but his comment about his airbrushed abs was really funny.

Astro7x posted:Wow... zero effort in changing up that entrance. I realize the models look better, but it's identical to WWE 2K14, which was identical to WWE 13 I don't necessarily mind them using the same entrance animations since once a guy has his entrance down, that's pretty much it. The animation itself doesn't look bad in the new version. I will say, though, that I'm stoked Cena is in the ring during Orton's entrance. I didn't play 2K14 at all, but I'm pretty sure '13 still had the opponent either disappear completely or just stand outside of the ring during his opponent's entrance? I've always hated that.

Skunkrocker posted:Okay... honestly, if you guys were talking about that picture I posted of the all NXT Royal Rumble? Those were CAWs I downloaded with renders hacked in. How? I've downloaded CAWs before, though in WWE 13 and not any of the 2K games, and have never had one come with a render like that. Is there an extra step I need to do in addition to downloading the CAW, or are they included with the download somehow? I'm totally clueless on that stuff.

Cardboard Box posted:I mean yeah commentary in WWE sucks in general but like WWE games have never been able to make it sound like actual live commentary, it's all so flat and stilted and you can tell they're just reading lines off a script, probably in just a single take or two. by contrast the UFC games have for a while had really good, mostly believable commentary and for a long time those were also made by Yuke's so I don't know what the reason for the disparity is Also, I've heard Lawler's, "And if you want to know what the WWE Universe thinks of THIS superstar, just listen to these cheers!" or whatever it is line in like three of these entrance videos already. Maybe the UFC games are better commentary-wise because the guys doing the commentary have more passion for it so they're putting in more effort. Lawler has been bored for years.

Genericide posted:That's a TLC match, because there's an important difference. That's such a weird/confusing thing. Alarming at first to see no ladder matches, but if it's just because they're using the blanket TLC match then that's totally fine. Same thing anyway. It is weird that the list mentions no fatal four way HIAC matches, but that you can have six-person HIAC matches.

Basic Chunnel posted:I don't anticipate much of a price drop for new-gen games in a short turnaround. A drop to $40, maybe. I remember when Microsoft had their $20 collection and that was a big deal, but we're a ways away from that in this gen (those sorts of deals heavily favored platform exclusives, too). second-hand is your best bet. According to a leaked GameStop sales flyer, 2K15 will be $40 for Black Friday. Probably some other deals will pop up as well.

I got 2K15 for Christmas because I like wrestling and I like games. Excited to play it despite the negative reviews thus far. '13 was really fun and looked like poo poo, so maybe it'll be worth it to have a game that looks good but plays like (maybe) poo poo? I dunno. I don't expect much out of these games, I'm just excited to have a new game to play especially considering I didn't play '14 at all.

For anyone still playing 2K15 - how the gently caress do you do a corner finisher? I gave my CAW the top rope brainbuster as a finisher and never get the prompt to do my finisher. When I whip a guy into the corner, I can't figure out how to place him on the top rope. Any hints?

Blast Fantasto posted:Press up on the right analog stick. This lifts the opponent up to the top rope. I'm still so loving confused. I sat the guy on the top rope and never got the prompt to hit my finisher. Hitting the circle button just does a normal superplex. I don't know if I'm missing something or what but it's incredibly frustrating.

Blast Fantasto posted:Check the animation for your finisher. Are you sure it's from the top rope? In their terms "Corner Finisher" sometimes means your opponent is down on the mat while you're just standing near one of the turnbuckles. FINALLY got it. I kept getting flashes of be finisher indicator and whenever I would hit the button I would just grab the dude's leg and let go. This happened three or four times, then I was finally able to hit the drat thing. Ugh.

Solomonic posted:Yeah, you should be able to see how much stamina a move requires when you're looking at it on your moveset menu thing. I like to do what Basic Chunnel said and call for the finisher beforehand to build stamina as they get up, that usually guarantees it. I haven't gotten the prompt to do a charged finisher while using a corner finisher, but maybe that's also just a stamina thing. At least now I know what to keep an eye out for.

Weird. They JUST did an Attitude Era thing with Austin two years ago. Maybe it's just an entire Austin career retrospective? Very unlikely, but it'd be cool to travel as Austin from WCW to ECW to WWE. It's not like they don't have the means to do so.

I also just realized they are going to have to a whole lot of new ring introductions now that Justin Roberts is gone. I'm guessing it'll be Lillian and not Eden or JoJo though. I don't trust them to actually record new lines for Cole and Lawler. They'll just insert JBL's lines around them.

Here's another 2K16 video with more junk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6sDYEvJB6yE The announcing and commentary still sucks. No oomph behind the intro for The Lucha Dragons at all and Lillian just sounds so stilted. Then, they enter the ring and Cole or Lawler remarks something about "THIS superstar!" There are loving two people there. How hard is it to not use singular phrases when a tag team is entering? Cries. Edit: Ugh. Rollins with Lesnar in a chin lock - "That's the first time we've seen THAT move tonight, and I wouldn't mind seeing more of it!" Ganso Bomb fucked around with this message at 22:04 on Aug 24, 2015 |

Ugh, the ECW arena is almost enough to make me want to get this game. Love the inclusion of the plants at the entrance. It's a shame they couldn't use (or didn't attempt to get rights to) the likenesses of any of the ECW crowd regulars. Really would have put a nice touch on it. Also, the arena looks WAY too big but that's just me being a whiny baby. I was never there in person and only saw it on TV, so I don't really know the size of it but it certainly looks much larger in the game than on TV.

If anyone wants to fart around and chat wrestling (or whatever) a few nights a week, I do some streaming here: https://twitch.tv/gansobomb_ I'm playing exclusively N64 wrestling games for now and am just about to finish WCW vs nWo: World Tour. I played through Revenge first, and I'll follow up with Wrestlemania 2000, No Mercy, and then maybe some of the Japanese games if I can get my hands on them. I have a copy of Brave Spirits but I'm thinking of picking up Virtual Pro Wrestling as well. Currently my schedule is Monday & Thursday at 8:30 ET/7:30 CT and Saturday at 6:05 ET/5:05 CT to keep with the WCW theme. I'll probably keep that schedule, though, because it's been working out pretty well for me.
