What the hell is up with Cena's face?

chuckd21

I can see him.

Mike86

I can but he looks weird sorta. Seems a bit off to me. He looks like an ape or something.

He is serious instead of trying to be funny and sell t-shirts. Ah the beauty of CGI!

Cena means "dinner" in Spanish. John Dinner is in the house!

They must have used Miz girl as the facial expression model

The roster reveal for WWE 2K15 will take place this Saturday starting at 10AM Pacific time. It will be covered live by IGN.

In other news, they revealed the story mode for this year's game will revolve around two rivalies: Shawn Michaels Vs. HHH from 2002-2004, and John Cena Vs. CM Punk from 2011-2013. This does confirm that Punk will be in 2K15, and will be playing a significant role.

33 matches will be included in this mode, more than likely spread between both stories as opposed to each getting 33. There may also be additional storylines via DLC down the road. I guess they picked a couple of good ones, and stories that really didn't involve the attitude era, or WrestleMania. Yeah, HBK and HHH met at Mania XX, but since that match was won by "He who shall not be named," there is no way that match will be included.

Some are expecting a Hogan Vs. Sting DLC, which could be cool, except for the fact that Sting didn't wrestle for over a year. I would love to see a Hogan Vs. Savage where you play through their run as the Mega Powers.

chuckd21

I could see that. You play as Hogan, win every match. Then you get to play a QTE after each match, dodging Sting coming down from the rafters.

Now that Sting is onboard it would cool if they did a Nitro-era WCW mode for the next game... basically the flip of the Attitude Era mode in WWE '13. Considering they've already included a majority of the big names in recent rosters (Flair, Hogan, Sting, DDP, Jericho, Nash, Hall, Goldberg, Booker, Scott Steiner, Savage, Giant, Eddie, Rey, Hennig) it wouldn't be too hard to line up.

Why do that this year, when Sting even being in the game is novelty enough, when you can save it for next year to drive sales?

Maxflier

I beleive that is what he was suggesting.

Am I the only idiot who preordered the Hulk Hogan edition of this game? Probably but it comes with a bunch of cool stuff.

When I was a kid, back in 1990, I remember when Earthquake squashed Hogan on the Brother Love Show, that after that the WWF gave an address where you could send get well letters to Hogan (he was actually filming Suburban Commando at the time). If you sent a letter in, you got back a "signed" postcard from Hogan, and a friendship bracelet. I actually sent in a letter, and got the postcard and bracelet back. I'm a huge Hogan mark.

I couldn't justify a $40 premium for this. That's ridiculous for a little doll, a piece of a ring and an autograph. Sure, I'd like the Hogan DLC code, but they're usually made available in January.

And I'm still not even sure I'm buying the damn game since the PS4 still doesn't support mp3s, meaning no custom music.

bluthswede6

Yea I had a $50 gift card on Amazon so it made it easier. Overpriced but for some reason I don't think I'll regret it. I'm usually a sucker for stuff like this. I just hope the game is good. Screencaps look good but I can't remember the last time I was fully engrossed in a wrestling game.

Mike86

That Hogan version isn't bad looking but I'm not a big enough fan of him to justify the extra price. The main thing I want is the DLC but that will be available at some point anyways.

DRG

Correct, for 2K16 or whatever they decide to call it. From the best part of that period (96-98) the only major name that hasn't been on a recent WWE game is Lex Luger. Arn, Malenko, and Kidman are already under contract behind the scenes so they'd be no-brainers. They could probably also get guys like Konnan, Rick Steiner, and some of the cruiserweights.

Benoit wouldn't make it for obvious reasons. Jarrett for other reasons. And WWE probably wouldn't include Buff since he's a gigolo or porn star or whatever now... not to mention the way things went down on that lone WWE appearance.

Rob V

That is his actual autograph right? Not a reproduction?

Mike86

I would have my doubts it is without actually being there when he was signing it.

nickdawgy

Supposedly he sat down and signed them all. But there's supposed to be 25k made. So that's a lot of signing if true.

TheKing

It's an actual autograph. The Undertaker did the same thing last year for his set.

Mike86

Even so a lot of the "coolness" of having an autograph is meeting the person and whatnot if you ask me.

Obi-Wanma

It's actually signed by Horace Hogan.

You are definitely a jabroni...
