Im just giddy over One Night Only. That way i can bury Michaels as the British Bulldog for the WWE title. Considering that one of the stories in Attitude Era mode is The Rise of DX, then get ready to relive that moment the way it happened. There's always Universe Mode. |

Also, new team has come to mind for WWE 13:
JBL and ADR as the new Money Incorporated.

Speaking of JBL, I was pretty pumped to hear he was on the roster. But, after seeing the Clothesline from Hell they gave Bradshaw, I'm less pumped. This is assuming that he will end up with the same clothesline.

So, don't give anyone with CM Punk's title animation the WWE undisputed belt. It starts to orbit them as they get to the ring! I can confirm that this happens with the Divas' Title as well. And the attitude WWE belt. Looks like I'm stuck with the spinner! :/ Also, I thought it was odd they had the NWO in the sky ad's, yet they aren't in the game (As far as we know.) |

I wouldn't look too much into those ads. Bischoff was on them as well, and Gene Okerlund announcing Hogan's signing with WCW. However, the nWo that was shown was just Hall & Nash so perhaps Hall is a secret character, and is used in the story mode about them jumping ship to WCW. Not advertising something that COULD be a major selling point would be a stupid decision. I don't see how the nWo could be in the game anyway. Hogan's with TNA, Scott Hall is Scott Hall too. That just leaves Nash. Hogan in TNA didn't stop them from putting Hogan (including nWo look) in WWE All-Stars. WWE All-Stars took so long to make that Hogan was in that game before he joined TNA. |

I won't lie. If we get Scott Hall/Razor Ramon in this game, I won't be on the fence about buying it day one anymore, I'll just go out and get it.
As a fighting game player, it annoys me that the concept of playing the game to unlock new characters has become such a hated thing. Which is why I think it's awesome that THQ is keeping that up. Although there was no way in hell I was playing through RtWM last year, so unlocking everything from the get-go was a must.

If anything, unlocking new characters gives the game a high replay value for me.

It varies for me. Like, on one hand, I like not having to screw around with the game and a given mode of it to get to the parts I actually want. With that in mind, one of the biggest flaws for All Stars for me was the fact that they patched out the Unlock All code, since unlocking anything in it takes f***ing forever and the Path of Champions thing isn't remotely fun. On the other though, there is always a certain feeling of accomplishment in managing to do something, and it gives you something to keep playing for.
That in mind, whether or not I go with the unlock-all thing with 13 will probably depend on what all's hidden to start with and whether I like Attitude Mode. Since I'm really on the fence on that idea and not entirely opposed to just skipping it and focusing on Universe.
Speaking of, I'm still confused as to how the hell recreating WrestleMania 15'll work with only five matches from the card able to be done and of those two ended in DQ.

Actually, despite not being the biggest HHH/Kliq fan lately, the prospect of having all five in a game for the first time would get me to go out of my way day one for it.
Hell, I'll probably be buying day one anyway.

So I remember when the Roster page was updated, there was always one mystery spot left blank that they just got rid of after a day or two.
Perhaps there is a chance he's in and they're keeping it secret...for some reason.

There's gotta be more than just two DLC characters. There's just so many missing regular superstars. I refuse to believe anything otherwise.

I don't normally go with Unlock All, but given that the Attitude Era mode sounds like the worst bits of Legends of Wrestlemania amplified, I might well use it this year.
Anyone else remember trying to reverse the Rock Bottom at Wrestlemania XV? You have to let him beat you up until he's got the energy for his special, then hope that he actually goes for it rather than just pinning you, then get the timing exactly right. And if you fail to reverse it, you'll have to do everything in the match again.

Poor THQ, Wade Barrett just had to change everything up.

Anyone know if it's been asked if you can team up two different versions of characters together? If so, the two Cenas may be my tag champs in a feud with Rey and Sin Cara.

This is such a minor nitpick but I can't help but notice some of the PPV arenas are out of order while others seem to be listed in chronological order. That being said, I'm oddly marking out for the Breakdown: In Your House arena.

Too bad the classic In Your House arena couldn't make it.

This is a 12 thing, but anyone else have a problem with the game sometimes forgetting certain people exist? Even though Punk has full allies and enemies and is the WWE Champion, unless he's defending the title it refuses to book him at all and he rarely shows up in cutscenes or anything. It's like it thinks he's not on Raw; tried putting him on SmackDown once and he got booked there, but when I moved him back afterward the game went right back to ignoring his existence.
