I have no idea but I dont think he will be that difficult to add. He was in the version of the game we saw back in October so its not like they have to create the player model.

Does EA negotiate the rights for each fighter separately or does the UFC get that right from their fight contracts or something? That's all I could see standing in the way.

Brock strikes me as a guy who has his own rights. He was signed to the WWE & was put in the last UFC game, & I assumed that he ceeded that right as a condition to join WWE this last contract (especially seeing as WWE always has a big video game out too). Now, did Brock sign those rights away this last contract? Who knows. It strikes me as more a gentleman's agreement, & now that he's coming back, he'd want his rights in there. Just don't see him giving that up, he's been too savvy.

Well I sure as hell hope they won't use that model if they add him. It looked horrible. Proportions were beyond messed up..

I really hope they add him. I mean he's gonna be the co-main event so surely they've got to add him for the live event thingy.

Brock and Kimbo would be a kick-*** update. Any word on if we will be getting a legends dlc down the road. I'm thinking of guys like Taktarov, Abbott, Hackney (not really), Kimo, Frye, Randleman, Severn, Rizzo, Ruas etc. the list goes on and on. I would gladly pay $10 or even $20 for a good legends DLC. Maybe a Chuck Norris, Van Damme, Chong Li, Tong Po add-on. The roof would come off if that happened I feel.
