Dunno don't think those graphics look too hot compared to prior games maybe it's just the video.

Just the video I think as it looks to be a bit low quality and game is still probably in early stages as well. Not released til another 6-7 months.

 

[John McHenry]

True could be. Im not buying another game until it's more like Here comes the Pain or No Mercy. The current version limits storylines far too much.

 

[PHX]

So looks like Punk is gonna be on the cover pretty awesome trailer and yeah game is probably in the early stages since that is a while away.

I understand why they release new games every year but I only buy them every few as theres never any big roster changes etc to warrant buying them every year especially when you can get caws online

Beyond awesome article. I suggest you look at it.

Noticed this. They really are making this game completely about the Attitude Era, especially according to the IGN article. Hell, why don't they just remake an older game like HCTP or No Mercy, update graphics, but basically keep everything else the same.

My wishlist for Attitude Era roster of WWE '13

1. Stone Cold Steve Austin (confirmed)
2. Mankind (confirmed)
3. Undertaker (confirmed)
4. The Rock (all but confirmed)
5. Gangrel
6. The Godfather
7. Val Venis
8. Bradshaw
9. Faarooq
10. Edge (Brood)
11. Christian (Brood)
12. D-Lo Brown
13. Al Snow
14. Steve Blackman
15. Ken Shamrock
16. Big Bossman
17. Test
18. Matt Hardy (unlikely)
19. Jeff Hardy (unlikely)
20. Road Dogg
21. Billy Gunn
22. X-Pac (IDK if he and THQ came to an agreement)
23. Shane McMahon
24. Crash Holly
25. Hardcore Holly
26. Owen Hart (unlikely)
27. Bubba Ray Dudley (unlikely)
28. D-Von Dudley (unlikely)
29. Rikishi
30. Scotty 2 Hotty
31. Grandmaster Sexay
32. Goldust

*Note I didn't include Kane and Big Show because I figured they will be included on the regular roster. If the Brood attires for Edge and Christian will be available as add ons, then replace both on my list with Road Warrior Animal and Road Warrior Hawk, the Legion of Doom. Also didn't include Triple H since he always makes the games, this year maybe as a legend.​

 

[Chris]

I really think 32 is entirely too many roster spots for Attitude Era guys. I mean, I'll probably love playing as a lot of them again, but a lot of mid-lower card guys that should be in the game won't be. I even heard Regal wouldn't be in this year.

Stumbled on this just now:

A user on THQ's forums posted a leaked roster he found on the official website for WWE '13. For obvious reasons, the post was taken down immediately. Still, could this be the full roster in the game?

The list certainly look legit since THQ themselves finalized the roster a few weeks ago. Not to mention they already announced the game will have 77 wrestlers in total. Bear in mind, THQ might release more wrestlers via DLC later on.

Check it out below:

I'd be perfectly fine if that was the roster. Mike Tyson is a very interesting pick if he is, in fact, on the game.
