    Re: WWE 12 Retail Impressions

    I know there's no voice overs in Universe, but do wrestlers cut promos or confront each other with on-screen dialogue?

      Re: WWE 12 Retail Impressions

      i haven't bought/played any WWE games since SvR 2007 on the PS2.. this year seems to interest me though, and the 47.99 price @ target is tempting.. i was wondering if the DLC was free? (HBK, Mick Foley, Batista, Macho Man etc) if not, how much are they? I been playin fire pro on ps2, and im not gonna lie, graphics do help with the immersion.. the rock doesnt feel like the rock in 2d form lol..still a fun game though

          I think the $47.99 price is only on Tuesday(@Target)

                And it's 47, not 47.99. Save another dollar!

                For the one who mentioned that there wasn't enough tension... if you were surprised by the GTS, then it still did its job. It didn't make sense for Punk to be lying on the ground there any way. He countered a Stunner... and then Austin got up from the GTS in seconds just like Punk did earlier with the Stunner. I think I will be turning up the effectiveness of finishers.

                If they programmed so you don't always get up, then people would wonder why they are stuck lying in the ring when they have health or whatever. I guess they had what they had in No Mercy where if you were down, you could hold a button and stay down, but doesn't seem necessary. People seem to forget this is a game for a scripted sport.

                Something else I'd like to see fixed is that every time someone is thrown over the ropes, they hold on and then you have to knock them over. More often than not, if someone is thrown over the top, they just fall to the floor.

                  During that Austin vs. Punk match did I hear the ref ask Austin "what do you say Austin?" while he had the hold on Punk???

                      Walmart/Best Buy are price matching the $47.99, so don't waste your time only going to target if its out of the way for you.

                        Now at least I know I'm not completely crazy lol. Shouldn't the ref be asking Punk that instead of Austin since Punk is in the hold and might or might not give up?

                          I canceled my Gamestop pre-order. I was going there for The Miz alternate attire, but it's not worth the 23 dollars in savings I would be getting going through Amazon (Plus no tax and I still get The Rock). I'm not worried about getting it shipped anytime soon since I'm visiting my family in Michigan and will play my brother-in-laws copy here for awhile.

                            Might not be worth the price difference, but if you buy at Best Buy I believe you get a free copy of The Rock: The Most Electrifying Man in Sports Entertainment on DVD. Wonderful set. Worth the extra cash if you don't have it and are a Rock fan.

                              Punk didn't even go for the pin after the first gts. It was poor AI. It only makes sense for him not to go for a pin if he's selling being exhausted or hurt, either by falling down for a double 10 count, or leaning against the ropes, or something. This series has had some issues with pacing and AI, and that video didnt exactly allay those fears for me.

                                What price difference? They price match. You get it for $47 at Best Buy, probably need the ad though.
