Gamestop in USA offering CM Punk t-shirt as a bonus and Tyson. Surely Gamestop here would be the same? They've always had some kind of pre-order bonus down the years?

Its not an real shirt, its just an alternate in game attire.

If it was a real shirt i'd pre-order. I'm not so inclined to just for one item of attire and mike tyson

I partly guessed that given the screenshot of the game :eek:

I was also not expecting to get a real life Mike Tyson :P

Would you really be that fussed about having an ice cream tee shirt in game shirt?
I didnt think you would so I assumed you meant a real shirt.

Not really, Tyson would be a nice bonus alright but gamestop.ie mentions nothing.

HMV are doing the tyson pre-order afaik.

gerrybbadd · 17-10-2012 04:08PM

For anyone that follows the wwe 13 page on Facebook, it seems best buy in the us have the game out in the play booth thingies, and and there are early reports coming in on game play etc

I thought Tyson was an exclusive for everybody who pre-ordered the game??

dlofnep · 17-10-2012 07:18PM

Does anyone even want to play as Tyson? He's not a wrestler. Can't imagine it being a deciding factor. If it was a boxing game, absolutely. But it isn't.

CMpunked · 17-10-2012 07:19PM

That create a stage looks awesome.

Andy_rse · 17-10-2012 07:29PM

I've not paid a great deal of attention to the build up of this game even though I plan on picking it up. I'll probably spend a lot of my time playing as Daniel Bryan, does anyone know it has his Yes! gimmick or is it his No! gimmick? Not that it makes a huge amount of difference.

I am way too excited about the inclusion of title history and stats tracking haha!

Yea that looks like a great fun especially when you can pick the size of the arena which is cool

Tinie · 17-10-2012 09:29PM

Looking forward to this actually! Hopefully xtra vision has some sort of preorder on it, as I have a €30 voucher for them still.

Stereomaniac · 18-10-2012 05:09PM

I'm psyched for this. I will be nerding it up for a good few consecutive hours when it lands.

lebowskilite · 18-10-2012 05:35PM

I think I'm gonna rent this just to be sure first. I got SvR2011 last year secondhand and it was the first wrestling game I'd played since Smackdown 3 and only the 2nd one I'd actually bought (after WWF No Mercy with the annoying bug).

Depressingly, I think No Mercy is a better game than SvR 2011. Even in basic things like huge wrestlers being difficult to perform moves on, SvR didn't seem to have as good a grasph of physics as the older games, which REALLY surprised me.

Aside from that, Road to Wrestlemania just wasn't very fun compared with the old season modes and storylines.

Come on WWE '13, IMPRESS ME!

You can check out most of the rosters entrances on this page - http://wwe.thq.com/roster

A little thing that annoys me is the Pyro for Attitude era Kanes entrance. His pyro never hit at that stage of his music. It just annoys me when they leave in stupid little things like that

Stereomaniac · 21-10-2012 04:35PM

A guy I'm in school with told me that he has contacted THQ on Twitter every year the past few years about having the lighting wrong on Randy Orton's entrance every single year.

This drives me mental too. And there's no way to edit the entrance correctly either. Sure, you can time the pyro, but Kane would be half way down the ramp when it is supposed to go off.

They get it wrong with a lot of entrances. Do they have Bret Hart's new music for the attitude era?

Yeah they have his new music which is ridiculous.

I don't like that you cant watch Cactus Jacks Entrance either. I was reading somewhere that they are having trouble getting the rights to his music so thats not good.

Is there really any need for 2 Litas as well? Just give her a few attires.

MitchKoobski · 21-10-2012 06:07PM

The wonders of editing the entrance!

I usually spend the first weekend with the game editing and touching up everything including Stables, finishers, entrances, themes.

max life · 21-10-2012 06:15PM

Where are people buying this? Amazon looks the cheapest place to buy it

Kerplunk124 · 21-10-2012 06:16PM

Yeah Amazon seems like the best shout

you had some amazing CAW'S last year if im right?

Stereomaniac · 21-10-2012 06:39PM

I'd imagine that that's fairly tedious, to "tidy up" the game before you actually play the thing.

CMpunked · 21-10-2012 08:52PM

Still can't watch Billy Gunn's entrance.

I really want to know how they worked around 'i'm an ass man'.
That'll be the first thing I'm going to do!

What's wrong with these faces?!

Cherry_Cola · 21-10-2012 08:57PM

Will it be possible to use custom themes for CAWs etc in this version?

Tinie · 21-10-2012 09:25PM

This cant come out soon enough. Sick of FIFA 13 already, so very much so looking forward to this. Lets just hope the online is more balanced than the last wwe game I played online (SVR 2010 I think).
