I love Arnie and he looks great for his age but man, ageing sucks. I think it's apparent be cause he's recreating a scene from 25 years ago.
Anyway playing as a T800 would be cool and surely he should have 100 for power? Bork should be 98.
Glad Arnie is working with WWE a lot

Well, that's different. Been a while since we've had an official celebrity wrestler in the game.
I just hope the current roster is still very thorough to minimise the "You put Arnold in but not this guy?" complaining from the wider masses.

That trailer is awesome but not particularly fussed about the T being included, suppose it's a bit of fun but much rather have an actual wrestler I'm concerned about Hogan being excluded, as a Hogan & nWo mark, they could cut the nWo part out of the Austin Showcase, probably no nWO Titantron & possible no nWo altogether They've removed nWo merch, so that might be the case Oh balls

Arnie is getting a lot of heat for this but let us all remember -haters included- it could be a lot worse.

Pretty cool addition to the game. It's just a bonus, but naturally people on fb comments are acting like this is the end of wrestling as we know it.

Official Terminator Press Release: ( Bolding is mine) {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler} FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE “I’m Back” – 2K Announces Arnold Schwarzenegger as the Terminator in WWE® 2K16 Pre-Order Exclusive Blockbuster action film star, 38th Governor of California, former professional bodybuilder and WWE Hall of Famer featured as two playable characters in flagship WWE video game franchise New York, NY – July 27, 2015 – 2K today announced the debut of 2015 WWE Hall of Fame inductee and global action film icon Arnold Schwarzenegger in WWE® 2K16, the forthcoming release in the flagship WWE franchise. Best known for his acting, bodybuilding and political endeavors, Schwarzenegger, a longtime WWE fan and WWE Hall of Famer, will expand his relationship with WWE through WWE 2K16 with two playable characters – T-800 from The Terminator and Terminator 2: Judgment Day films. The playable characters will be available for those who pre-order the game at participating retailers for the PlayStation®4 and PlayStation®3 computer entertainment systems, as well as Xbox One and Xbox 360. WWE 2K16 is scheduled for release on October 27, 2015 in North America and October 30, 2015 internationally. “I’ve achieved many things in my life, but I’ve always said success means staying hungry and pushing the limits,” said Schwarzenegger. “I was honored to join the WWE Hall of Fame earlier this year, and now I’ll continue my WWE legacy with one of my biggest film roles immortalized in WWE 2K16. Match the Terminator against Stone Cold Steve Austin®, Seth Rollins® or Daniel Bryan®, and there’s only one possible outcome: Hasta la vista, baby!” From early childhood in his native Austria to today, Schwarzenegger represents the ultimate renaissance man, taking risks and defying odds through career accomplishments in bodybuilding, acting, politics and more. He won his first of four Mr. Universe titles at the age of 20, earned seven Mr. Olympia titles and since 1989 has hosted worldwide fitness expositions through the Arnold Sports Festival. Schwarzenegger is a fixture in numerous blockbuster action films, including Conan the Barbarian, The Terminator, Predator, Total Recall, Terminator 2: Judgment Day, The Expendables franchise and his most recent release, Terminator Genisys, as well as for his roles in pop-culture favorites Kindergarten Cop and Twins. In addition, Schwarzenegger transcended from Hollywood to the state capitol, serving two consecutive terms as the 38th Governor of California from 2003 to 2010. “Arnold Schwarzenegger is a living legend with universal appeal, a perseverance for greatness and a strong relationship with WWE, including his recent Hall of Fame induction, all of which make him an incredible fit for WWE 2K16,” said Chris Snyder, Vice President of Marketing at 2K. “He’s a force to be reckoned with and defines what it means to raise some hell. Through his WWE 2K16 pre-order inclusion, fans simply can’t beat the opportunity to play as the Terminator in a WWE ring.” To see the WWE 2K16 pre-order promotional campaign featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger, please visit www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZTSahJxT0Q. Developed collaboratively by Yuke’s and Visual Concepts, a 2K studio, WWE 2K16 is not yet rated by the ESRB.

I love being able to play as the T-800 but it's pretty funny seeing all these Terminator tie-ins considering that Genesys completely bombed.

I'm hoping the deal includes having the movie theme for his entrance. Just imagine a Royal Rumble or something...
*countdown*
*buzzer*

The fact that when they went with which Terminators to go with they picked versions from 24 and 31 years ago respectively says a lot. I assumed they'd at least throw in a Genesys version, but nope.

If they don't go with the battle damaged Terminator from T2, with the exposed metallic eye, they are dumb as f***. Personally, I'd be interested to know what his moveset is. You can't exactly have him shotgun blasting Fandango in the head as a finisher.
