They're keeping Yukes because the WWE still wanted to release WWE 14, so 2K didn't have enough time to make their own game. That's why they also brought some of the THQ staff in as well.

Actually I heard that the box is huge but the game will only play for 15 minutes.

Second....

I'm not upset by this. Rock is WWE's biggest star right now, and current WWE champion, so why not have him be the cover star?

For me it's a downgrade. However, for WWE and 2K it will likely be an upgrade. Perhaps I should have put "in my opinion" after my sentence.

Except for it not really being an opinion on this one. This one isn't really subjective. There's no, downgrade of putting a bigger star and money maker on the cover of your video game. That's like having Kevin Garnett on the cover of your NBA game one year and then Michael Jordan the next and someone saying it's a downgrade because they don't like Michael Jordan. You can try to protect it as your opinion, but it's not an opinion that Michael Jordan on the cover of the game as opposed to Garnett is a better move, it's a fact.

Does it really matter who is on the cover?

That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. So basically, you're saying I can't have an opinion? From my perspective, as a fan, I think it's a huge downgrade. We go from a guy that I think is currently the best wrestler in the world to a guy that I wish would just go back to making movies. Is it going to influence whether or not I buy it? Absolutely not. From a business perspective, it's a great move. I'm sure there are a lot of casual fans that might buy it seeing The Rock's face as opposed to seeing Dolph Ziggler, The Shield, CM Punk, John Cena, etc on the cover. That doesn't mean I have to like it. It's another one of those scenarios where I fit into the crowd that is the minority. But just because I'm in the minority doesn't mean I can't have an opinion on it.
