Rollins, Reigns, and Ambrose don't have their new themes / trons.

Well that sucks. Thanks for the confirmation though.

Lol at some of the "disappointments" people are having.

I usually end up blocking out commentary but bad commentary stands out more when compared to good commentary. When I play nba 2k the commentary blends in. I don't really notice it because it seems natural. However when I play a game with poor commentary, like NHL 15, the commentators stand out almost immediately. After a few games it is noticeable that every game is nearly the same identical lines regardless of teams or players and it lacks the feeling of an actual broadcast.

No need to laugh at them for their opinion.

I will say though that I am glad I'm not very picky and can still enjoy games. Some I feel expect too much and get disappointed.

The game looks fun as hell and I cannot wait to pick it up.

They may be minor "disappointments" and nothing game crippling but the little things add up. People also have high expectations with the new consoles. Things like better commentary, accurate music, more realistic arenas, and better crowd noise aren't asking for much. Something like music and entrances should be something that can be patched in but that's not guarantee.

I personally am on both sides of the fence when it comes to the shortcomings of some of these "next gen" games. On one end of the argument I agree that expectations should be high. We should expect the most out of these games due to the increased power and amount of detail that can and should be added. However I also understand that things take time. It is difficult and unrealistic to make a game for a new console and have no problems and to fix any and all complaints about previous games. There are bound to be aspects of the game that get the short end up the stick, whether it is game modes, features, sound department, online functionality, etc. Next year should be the year where sports games, and games as a whole, really hit their stride on the new consoles and deliver in more than just visuals.

Yeah there is.

And to have such high expectations from this particular game is being ignorant of the past and the way things typically work in this industry.

First year games from companies are never as fully fleshed out as there potential would suggest.

Yearly titles first year on a new set of hardware are also typically a little shallower then then the previous years title on the previous generations hardware.

Now combine that's it a new company taking over a yearly franchise, not starting from scratch, AND the fact that it's the first year of a new generation

History would dictate that we should be getting something that looks great and has a lot of promise/heading in the right direction. But won't be as fully fleshed out or polished as it will be in the future. First year game=temper expectations.

Being picky and having high expectations is something I have worked to control over the past few years. We all want the best out of games (or any form of entertainment we enjoy) but I realized that having high expectations or expecting near perfection only leads to disappointment. Every thing is going to have flaws, especially games.Typically high expectations cause every flaw to be illuminated, unless our expectations result in ignorance of the flaws because we are unable to accept that our expectations are not met. Most things (games, movies, tv shows, etc) are most enjoyable when they aren't viewed over critically.

With videogames, especially ones from an on going series, expectations should remain in line with the series history. We expect games to improve year to year, game to game. But it is unreasonable to expect a game to fix all issues in one year and be a completely new game, especially in a year's time.
