Got WWE 13 a few days ago cause it was cheap, and playing through the attitude era made me remember some of the great matches back then \o/ Might try to find them online somewhere

Lack of a "Story" mode in newer WWE games is a bit shit

Attitude era was awesome, 30 years of Wrestlemania missed some great matches but not a bad mode for nostalgia none the less.

I am really enjoying Universe mode though. In my second year and have had some fun with different "story lines" I have created in my head.

I have played out the real life Shield and Rhodes feud for the Tag Titles with the Rhodes currently holding on to it. They feuded for about 3 months before they lost the titles in a new feud to the returning New Age Outlaws and then won them back.

Christian and Jericho was one of my favorite rivalries for the Heavyweight Championship with Christian hanging onto it before losing it to Rey Rey at the Rumble.

Sting made his first appearance in WWE after the rumble and feuded with Taker till Wrestlemania where he lost before they formed a tag team to take on the Shield.

Rey beat Cena for both the Heavyweight and WWE Championships when I changed it to a unified title and cross branded them. Rey is currently feuding with Orton for the Undisputed title and I will eventually have Evolution form again to take on the NWO who will debut at Wrestlemania.

Loving the game despite it's glitches and shortcomings. Can't wait to see what 2K do once they make the game their own.

It's a mix of both GM and career. You can set rosters, create shows, vacate and give titles to superstars, set rivalries and edit match cards. You can also play every matchup as well.

It has the potential to be huge the only thing lacking is substance to it's rivalries, there are quite a few cutscenes that make things interesting however they only occur before, during and after matches. So no promos, or backstage stuff. If 2K can do half of what they have done with their NBA games then I don't doubt this will all be in there sooner or later. There are some bugs as well and also the booking can sometimes make you say what the??

Then again it is still a THQ/Yukes game so we won't see 2K's stamp on until 15 or even 16.

I actually started my first universe by creating a TNA show as well and filling that with all downloadable CAW's but it got messy and was just too much, so I stuck to just RAW and Smackdown and cut the rosters down and then slowly debut new superstars/CAW's. My universe is very interesting atm and has really added to replayablilty. I found some sliders on the net with the difficulty set to legend some matches are a challenge and some are easy. Can also change the match length to short, normal and epic. I have had some real corkers on epic match length but these can last 15-20 minutes sometimes longer.

I remember having a TLC match with 6 wrestlers, the match took me two hours to finish and I didn't even fucking win. Best match ever.

We had an hour break from college one day, so 3 of us kicked off a Money In The Bank match. 2 and a half hours later, the CPU controlled Mark Henry fucking won it.

Was awesome

Pretty awful PPV.

What is the point of having a PPV called TLC if there is only going to be one TLC match?

Thought the Punk match was the only real decent match. Main Event was pretty boring, even the table spots were pretty shit. Taking 20 mins climb a ladder then getting hit in the back gets boring after the 5th time

The Shawn Michaels/CM Punk segment on Raw was a complete disaster. It's like Shawn forgot what he was actually out there to say or do, CM Punk tried to save it but was unable to. The whole thing seemed rushed at the last second. I don't know if it was supposed to build up a feud but it just stunk.

Hope he grows his hair our and grows back the goatee for our show in May haha!

Ringside tickets have sold out so there is only general admission left. I'd love it if we sold out the ballroom two years in a row!

What a year it's been in 2013. What a run up we have to the Ballroom show as well!
