I hope in 2k16 they have a "Monday Night Wars" mode in which you go through the Wars and can play stars from both eras. I say give 20 people to WCW and WWF during that time and it would be nice. If that's the case I can see this - Hollywood Hogan - Hall - Nash - Goldberg - Crow Sting - Macho Man - Lex Luger - Flair - Arn Anderson - Mysterio - DDP - Scott Steiner - The Giant - Booker T - Syxx - Piper - Raven - Juventud Guerrera - Kidman - Dean Malenko For WWF/E they can have - Austin - Rock - Taker - Triple H - Foley - HBK - Kane - Angle - Mr. McMahon - X-Pac - Bret - Edge - Christian - Big Show - Road Dogg - Billy Gunn - Jericho - Shane McMahon - Lita - Trish That would be neat and all, but there's no way in hell they're dedicating 40 spots on the roster to legends. Maybe if they made a solo Monday Night Wars game, but I can't imagine that would sell particularly well.

If Edge doesn't make this year's game due to no room on roster or no Legends contract signed, that will leave Kane, Undertaker and Triple H as the only three to have been in every game in the WWE series (SmackDown > SmackDown vs. Raw > WWE/2K). Vince has been in every game too but not always playable. Three wrestlers in every installment for 15 years is quite impressive!! Just came across this video of Undertaker vs. Kane in 23 different video games! Edit: Video wouldn't appear so just linked to it: Undertaker vs. Kane on 23 Different Games

Yeah, I think Shawn was only missing from SD3. And Rock from one of the SDvRs. Big Show and Matt Hardy have been in most too. I may look into how many people have made game appearances

I just realized that August is over and we learned nothing and saw nothing during IGN 's month of exclusive coverage. 2K is really shitting the bed with this. Hardly, most sport games only get minimal coverage before release. We've been spoilt by the coverage in the past, it seems 2K actually want the surprises in the game to be... surprises. I think that someone needs to explain to the fine folks at 2K that, after all these years, us folks aren't keen on "surprises".

I may look into how many people have made game appearances The Rock missed SvR 2009, HBK missed Just Bring It, Stone Cold wasn't in SmackDown! vs. RAW (his animations were there), and Big Show skipped Know Your Role and 2008.

Not sure if this is considered "advertising" or whathaveyou, but this is a great source for a SvR/WWE series retrospective as far as who's been in what and how many times.

Maybe if they made a solo Monday Night Wars game, but I can't imagine that would sell particularly well. Besides a lot of Legends being reskins, there's 40 which is only around 5-8 more than the legend count on the previous titles. It's definitely possible. Worst case they they could eliminate 4 and still make sense amount wise. Although I doubt it'll happen, it's possible.

Anybody pre-order 2K15 from Amazon? I pre-ordered there last year and it can on release date, but now I'm trying to pre-order 2K15 and it won't give me a release date delivery for some reason.
What shipping am I supposed to pick to get it on time?

Man, I know it only happened recently, but I seriously hope they have the Shield's new attire. Because Rollins is getting a decent push in my Universe ATM, seeing as he's goddamn fun to play as, but I want him in his Winter Soldier rip-off gear dammit!

So uhmm about SVR 2006's Raw storyline I already won the WHC so why do I have to win it again ? I don't even remember losing it.

Bischoff stripped the championship from you due to a clause that states that a championship cannot be defended in a cage match in the month of October. Yes, RAW went from October to April in SvR 2006 without a world championship.

They can't include Kidman in these games, he'd be too overpowered. Facing off against someone with a Powerbomb finisher, you'd be guaranteed the win!

The Kidman Powerbomb Rule does not affect those that actually use Powerbombs on a regular basis. There's just something about Kidman that compels wrestlers that have never used a Powerbomb in their life to try the move on him just this once.

So he'd have a unique special ability that means the opponent's first finisher attempt would default to a powerbomb?
