2K has released the details on the DLC packages and season pass for WWE 2K14, and there's actually some good stuff to be had in the various downloadable offerings. The whole package can be had for $19.99, and if you're into some of the creation offerings in the franchise, there seem to be some good options in here for you.
I've got to say that it's a bit galling seeing moves being offered as a DLC pack, especially since some of them are basic stuff that should be in the game outright (inverted DDT, diving headbutt, leaping tombstone, etc.) It starts to get down a bad path for DLC when fairly standard wrestling moves are being so obviously gated in this way.
The other big sticking point is that DLCs are all priced way too high individually, and this is obviously being done to create some sense of "value" for the season pass. Sorry, you can't tell me that three or four new wrestlers (some with just costume swaps from on-disc version) plus a few moves or extras are worth $9. All of these should be $5 on their own, but then there would be no savings. Bad form, 2K.
Still, I'm glad the accelerator is back for those that want to have maximum creation potential, and some of the included legends and current stars remedy a lot of the holes that are present in the on-disc roster.

I would have liked to see a return of some of the attitude era guys from last year, shamrock and dx come to mind, but not a bad dlc list overall. The wwe games have always had great creation tools so missing some wrestlers isn't the end of the world

Im excited about this because I don't really watch wrestling much anymore and I prefer the older guys over the current guys. Divas... I'd be fine if they were not even in it.

i'm excited mostly for the nWo guys but it is strange the Uso's aren't in. Surprising they weren't on disc to begin with considering they were last year dlc

I can not agree with you more on the fact they gated off moves and such for us folks like to create the old school wrestlers.
Soon as I read this I actually went to GameStop and canceled my preorder for the Phenom Edition.
Companies that nickel and dime me, I just can not get behind or support. Soon companies will sell us half a game for $60 then expect us to buy the other half of it in DLC for another $60.
This is simply getting out of hand. Can not support it.

Every year dlc gets bigger and bigger. I too, will NOT be buying this game. Just wish more gamers would do the same; make these companies stop before it gets out of hand which imo, it already is.

This DLC monetizing is ridiculous. I'd buy the game used for about $20 in the end then find someone will to share the DLC cost.
