Bret's Sharpshooter, finally done correctly!

That LoDown looks decent too. Is that Billy Gunn as "The One"?

Yep, for the 2001 Royal Rumble.

Probably not, if it's anything like the Royal Rumble 1998 from WWE '13 they'll have it start from when he enters

Sharpshooter is a bit off, Bret usually holds the guys knee. See Wrestlemania 12 for the perfect sharpshooter! :-) They finally got it correct with his left leg though.

I'd really like it if they used his Sharpshooter from SummerSlam 1991 as their basis for the video game version. That was one of the most vicious looking ones he ever locked in probably.

Correct you are. I was so caught up in him locking it in with the left leg, that I missed him not holding the knee

Its a bit of a shame they can't get it properly done

The remaining people on the roster will be announced in the morning by IGN. Anyone you're hoping for?

I think if Kurt Angle is announced it'd be great.

Stereomaniac

I want Ted DiBiase to be in the game again this year. Kurt Angle would be sweet too, it's true.

seandotcomm

Kurt would be amazing.
I'm hopeful of the Dudleys, because of Bubba's inclusion in the Rumble this year... might have got the ball rolling a good while back.
Mideon and Viscera would be cool also and would complete the Ministry of Darkness. ( also hope Ministry 'Taker is in )

Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady's entrance

seandotcomm

I reckon the DLC packs will be, Attitude Era, Divas and ECW / WCW.

The Ayatolla

So there's three Stings, three Undertakers and three Steve Austins? I thought the 123 characters didn't include duplicates or alternate attires?

Stereomaniac

Sure they pull that one every year. I'd rather each one of those models were just an attire instead.

The Ayatolla

Two Stephanies. FFS

Stereomaniac

Going to have to do a lot of changing Universe statuses to inactive when I set up the game first.

martyos121

They absolutely nailed Enzo and Cass' entrance:

NO BLACKMAN NO BUY

Stereomaniac

They should have really featured him in the 2013 edition, considering the career mode in it like.

Very good article that shares my exact same concerns for the game. I'm an avid wwe game collector but I think this will be the first instalment I don't buy. The games have been lacking for a few years in the actually fun to play department. The emphasis on realism over fun is a real drag, no wonder people dust off their old consoles to play vintage games.

The commentary also sucks the life out of the game more so then any other sports games, I have no doubt this problem has not been addressed after hearing the generic sound bytes.

The roster size is impressive has to be said .

Fact I'm bein so negative is due to years of disappointment , especially last year. Hate the fact that any cool move I just basically press triangle and an omg cut scene occurs .

The career mode in previous versions tht have so many different options would keep me entertained , had big hopes for it in 2k15 but lack of storyline hampered it greatly.

Stereomaniac

I'll play it. I have to see Dean Ambrose in the main event somewhere!

Natalya Gameplay:

Hideo Itami vs Tyler Breeze:

R-Truth vs Bad News Barrett:

Sting vs Seth Rollins, new Curb Stomp in the video at 4:10:

And finally, Becky Lynch, Charlotte, Sasha Banks and Bayley will not be in the game at all.

Great trailer I have to say.

Thumbs up for Audioslave as well!

Reebrock

Bam Bam!!! Good to see!

Pentecost

Odd that Sasha and Charlotte at least aren't in there. I remember a certain someone that used to post on here saying some months back that Sasha had been doing motion capture for the game.
