This is correct; and for further clarification - Curt Hennig is part of the nWo DLC pack coming in November. Mr. Perfect is only available as a manager in the game as-is.

Holy **** the Iron Man Match is actually 60 minutes?? I've played through on hard but I'd consider dropping the difficulty on this because I'll be super pissed if failed it after all that.

Edit: haha nvm. That was clever how they did that.

Playing 30 years of WM - damn it's fun. First wrestling game where I'm sitting there pumping my fists after a win. Just something different about it where it's ... just better.

Legend difficulty with some tinkered sliders - I'm a little confused about how some guys can get Finishers sometimes. Is it still more momentum-based? It seems sometimes where a guy will be doing very well, but won't achieve a finisher, then get his butt kicked, then he gets two moves and all of a sudden has a finisher. Maybe it just feels that way.

Like someone else said, the finisher's are slightly easy to reverse, but particularly Savage's elbow. It's a cake reversal. That being said, beating him with Hogan took me forever. And beating Andre wasn't too easy either, he can hand out some punishment.

Universe mode is great, too. I let CPU play out everything, and I'm only a week through but will probably detail it in the Universe thread soon. A concern is that out of three feuds including championships, the first week of each has just been the challenger coming out after the champion wrestled a match and motions like he's coming for the belt.

Gameplay inside the Universe - I'm still fooling around with sliders for this. It's different than last year in that the mid-card matches are only 5-8 minutes or so, not many 10-plus singles matches between Miz and Kofi Kingston. I was concerned it would impact the main events, but so far my two main events saw Kane kick out of TWO AA's only to submit to Cena in a well-paced match, and Show making Del Rio submit in a submission match in another well-paced affair. I am still a bit scared of seeing a PPV Main Event be a 6-minute match ending after the first finisher, so I have finishing strength at about 16 (of 20) as opposed to 19 I had it at. I'm hesitant to make a match "epic" because I don't want a 15-finisher, 60-minute match. Does anyone have any ideas on how the "epic" matches are this year in comparison to "normal"?

Damn, that was a post.

Just faced Taker in B.T.S. mode with Punk. Absolutley incredible match, numerous chair and stair shots, both men bloody. Taker hits his sig. then goes for the Tombstone...I reverse into a Tombstone of my own! 1...2...kickout! Im yelling at my screen by this point. Go for the G.T.S.....and hit! Try to cover...hells gate, and I tap. It seemed like an actual match...stunning!

Wow!

Very impressed with the new gameplay! I lost to Macho Man as Ryback on Normal difficulty.
Started a WWF/WCW Universe from when I watched wrestling in the 90s but sprinkled in some newer guys that looked cool to me. Even though I have no idea who they are (never heard of Ryback?..).

Only question is how do I change guys attire in my Universe? I would like to get all of the NWO guys wearing NWO colors..

I was on the fence about buying this game, but glad I did!
