He's obviously grey underneath but he does his usual bleaching which makes it look white/yellow. The grey in that GIF is a bizarre choice.

Undefeated Steak Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Don't think I've laughed more at a thread on here. That ref glitch video has done me in. What a horrendously made game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted October 21, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 21, 2019 And the fact people have paid £95 for a deluxe edition. Unless that deluxe edition contains a game engine which isn’t this shoddy mess, they will be in tears tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted October 21, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 21, 2019 I'm enjoying seeing this game getting buried too, looking forward to the proper reviews coming out, hoping that they will confirm that it's a big load of shite. The WWE games have been the same lazy stuff for years, so it'd be nice if one was a big enough flop to give all involved a kick up the arse. I know that WWE and 2K have a long term deal, so wouldn't hold out too much hope for radical changes. There's potentially a big open-goal for AEW to tap into here if WWE 2K20 gets a tonne of bad press and AEW can get their game out in 2020 with gameplay based on the fan-favourite AKI engine, as rumoured. Not sure how much it would mean to the younger fanbase, but I know there's a lot of people from my generation, including lapsed wrestling fans and lapsed gamers, who would definitely take an interest in any wrestling game promising to be a modern successor to those AKI/THQ N64 titles. A decent video game can help to introduce a whole new market to your product, or at least that used to be the case. From my own experience, I can say that I wouldn't be a wrestling fan today if not for discovering those wrestling games on the N64. By 1998 I thought I'd long since 'grown out' of watching wrestling, but obviously not video games. I'd gotten an N64 for Christmas '97, but since the games cost an arm and leg I'd often rent from the video shop. I still have this memory of being in there and seeing the gurning face of The Giant staring back at me from the box of WCW vs nWo: World Tour. Hogan was on there too, looking a lot different to how I'd remembered him when I'd still been a wrestling fan years before. I thought it looked fun- so I took it home for a play. It turned out it was tonnes of fun. By the time the next Christmas rolled around WCW/nWo Revenge had not long been released and was top of my Christmas list. Weirdly, by this point I was well into the game but still not really that bothered about watching any wrestling. Probably over 80% of the wrestlers in the game were completely unfamiliar to me, but I was happy enough using my imagination to put characters to them and make up my own matches and stories. Then I discovered you could actually watch WCW Nitro on Sky. I must have stumbled across it inadvertently at some point when my dad wasn't in control of the remote, but I remember watching it for a bit and being blown away by seeing all these guys from the game in real life, and thinking how well the game captured all their moves and mannerisms. All this was during WCW's 83 week winning streak- the shows were hot. I was soon hooked. From there I rediscovered WWF, just as the tide changed in the ratings war and their show had become shit hot. The rest is history. I've rambled but there's a point in here somewhere. AEW should capitalise on WWE 2K20 flopping and bring out a re-skinned No Mercy so that I can continue this lovely nostalgia trip.     Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Accident Prone Posted October 22, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 22, 2019 I'm not trying to beat a dead horse here or become the Tilde of WWE 2K20 shit, but this one just sums up everything that I've loathed about these games for the past five years or so, and has a fantastic glitch at the same time. - No atmosphere. The crowd isn't organically reacting to anything, if they're reacting at all. - The movements are lifeless, dull and uninspired. (Well, until the end). - The commentary is phoned in, awkward and just plain bad. - Game breaking glitches that we all know and loathe.

I remember only just getting back into wrestling during the Summer holidays and I vividly remember seeing see WCW/NWO Revenge at Ebb's House for the first time. Hooked from that moment onwards. Ming Chee had a hell of a Brainbuster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
