Official WWE '13 Discussion Thread

[rawisrey]

all right I'll tell the truth I haven't entirely read the updates here so who knows if I'm repeating anything if I am I apologize theres only two real updates I have though

Bryan Williams confirmed that the color wheel for skin tones in CAW is Back, the tweet was deleted after though so that may either point to a leak confirming it or jumping the gun.

Special Referee match is back, and will be available in all game modes including online.

And here are some new pictures. One showing Special Referee back, another showing Survivor Series Deadly Game stage so who knows if that points to any tournament feature.

Ok definately getting the game that trailer has me convinced that I must get it along with the roster size it looks excellent.

 

[Slim]

FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY! Special referee returns. I've had so many feuds I created on my WWE 12 that would work so awesome if I had a special ref... or if I could have the manager turn on the person they are managing... but the game is stupid like that.

but special ref will def help me out with that.

WWE '13 pre-orders at select retailers in the United States and Canada will receive an exclusive CM Punk ice cream bar t-shirt.


For years, the WWE Universe has clamored for the return of WWE ice cream bars, made throughout the 1980s and 1990s by Good Humor.

In the United States, you can get the attire by pre-ordering at GameStop, while in Canada, the in-game shirt will come with all pre-orders placed at EB Games. Both while supplies last, natch

You might be saying to yourself, "Self, what on Earth do ice cream bars have to do with WWE '13, CM Punk and living the revolution?" Fortunately, we’re happy to tag ourselves in and answer that question on behalf of yourself: If you remember back to the halcyon days of summer 2011, in the weeks following CM Punk's infamous "Pipe Bomb" promo, you might recall the Voice of the Voiceless expressing his desire to have his heavily tattooed image featured on all manner of WWE merchandise, including, you guessed it: WWE ice cream bars. Now you can relive the current WWE Champion's successful revolution with a digital version of this fan-favorite piece of WWE merch.

Pretty cool little pre order deal

 

[Chris]

Definitely not something that will convince someone to preorder the game like having Tyson as a playable character, but still a nice little edition for those that do. I won't miss it when I get the game a few weeks after it's released though.

 

[rawisrey]

for those interested they have updated the roster with some entrances and finishers, I believe they will start doing this every Tuesday so keep an eye on it.

here the link to the roster for anyone who doesn't know, http://wwe.thq.com/roster

within the roster page there are some new screen shots, they aren't that important though as it's just screen shots of the wrestlers doing certain moves so I don't really feel like putting them up here.

now they uploaded the videos and updated the rosters with them however they uploaded Austin yet did not update his roster, so for those wanting to see Austin

[Tapout]

Haha. I find it funny how they blur his fist.

 

[Heisenberg]

I'm really digging the Attitude Era feel to the game and the arenas, etc. They still walk like they have stick up their ass during the entrances though. haha. Sucks they blurred the finger, maybe it's just for YouTube?

Also. I preordered the Austin 3:16 edition at my local ebgames for $98.

Here's the other videos that Rey didn't post.

There's 2 different RAW IS WAR Arenas btw. Look at the Austin entrance video then Mankind video. I like Jerichos entrance, nice work THQ. Let's hope they do the same with Taker, play around with the lighting.

Can't wait to see what other Attitude Era arenas there is.

 

[PHX]

NOD theme being in the game = a bunch of people remaking NOD with Truth, Kofi, etc.

[Crippler]

Jericho's entrance with the lights on the jacket is hilarious but Awesome at the same damn time. Punk's entrance was cool but the way he walked to the ring didn't look like how Punk usually walks to the ring.

I like that they have stone cold's middle fingers blurred out. It reminds me of wrestlemania 2000 or no mercy for N64 (forget which it was) when billy gunn's taunt would be blurred when he would pull his ass out. Though at the same time it would be nice if they didn't blur the fingers or gave you the option of turning it off.

 

[Slim]

The Mankind entrance was looking good... until he came out in that white shirt waving to the fans. I was like YES ATTITUDE MANKIND... NOOOOOOOO.

 

[PHX]

Yeah I know what you mean I want the 1996 version of him personally.
