Loved the trailer, but I've always been a massive Star Wars fan even before I loved wresting. After seeing the trailer I think perhaps Rey has discovered how to channel the power of the light side and the dark side, without taking one side, making her neutral. This would make Luke the last Jedi perhaps?

Played one Exhibition match, then jumped straight into Attitude mode; and loving it! Reminds me of the days of playing WWF Attitude / and No Mercy. Have not played Universe mode yet, and I'm not missing playing as current superstars. Will probably set up a Attitude era Universe mode and make all current wrestlers inactive.

I found a good way to get slight boosts in morale is to get people involved in mentorships. Especially awesome because I happened to get a backup goalkeeper from Norway who happens to be a huge fan of Ruddy.

Morison won't even hear me though. Even though I made him vice captain in an attempt to make amends with him. Tempted to just give up and make him wear a jersey that reads "Spoiled Wanker" on the back.

When does the demo end by the way? September?

Demo runs from July to December 31st I believe.

This will have probably been answered a million times but I've only recently got the game and I can't be bothered re-reading all 43 pages. Will I be able to play this without an Internet connection given that it connects to my Steam account whenever it loads up?

Yeah there's an offline mode, which allows you to start Steam without connecting to the internet everytime you open it. Here's a guide: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=3160-AGCB-2555

I'm currently having a bit of a dilemma in my current game. I'm halfway through my 3rd season with Brighton. Won promotion in my 1st season, and finished 7th in the Premier league last season. Now currently sitting in 3rd place! (Which is pretty good, considering my squad is pretty average). And I've just been offered the Chelsea job! Never been offered another job before, so was quite surprised! I now don't know what to do! >_<

So Kevin Nash (me) beat the crap outta Michael Cole for about 5 minutes, and finishes him off with a Jacknife, who comes out to congratulate me?... HBK and Hunter. The Kliq are back together WWWYKI! They've now formed a stable on Raw.

Yeah the same thing happened to me while I was playing with Nash on my WCW brand. Although it was Triple H and Mr. McMahon. Probably because I haven't bought the HBK DLC. I think the game takes into account who your allies and enemies are, and generates storylines based off them.

Was really getting into Universe mode with my WCW brand. But now the loading screens after a match keep freezing on me and so I can't seem to even play a match in universe mode now. Anyone else had freezing issues?

Might be a silly question: but how are people assembling their Ultimate teams already? Or is it just general planning who your going to have?

I'll probably go and see the film, just because I've seen all the others. I thought the remake with Mark Whalberg was shit anyway. Nothing beats the original film. Although the sequels were awful!

New Manchester United Home kit. Apart from the collar, it looks almost identical to this seasons kit.

Sky News are reporting that there are 'unconfirmed' England have gone out in the first round of voting!

Really wish i pre- ordered this Every shop in my town is sold out. Some places said they wouldn't be getting anymore for 3 weeks. It just seems like a PS3 thing, as there are tons of XBOX360 Copies in all the shops.

I've just uploaded my first Story, if anyone's interested.

Search:

"CENA VS MCMAHON part1"

"CENA VS MCMAHON part2"

Anybody else completed and uploaded any stories yet?

Is Create-a-Story like GM Mode; where you can create many different feuds and shit?

It's GM Mode on steroids and without the competition with the other show. You control all shows and you do as much with them as you want. If you want to focus on one specific story involving two wrestlers, you can. If you want to do several different stories about everyone in WWE, you can do that too. I haven't messed with it yet, but from what I understand, it's really in-depth.

Yeah Create A Story mode is brilliant. I've been at it all weekend, creating a Cena vs. McMahon storyline, leading up to Wrestlemania. Still got a bit to do, but it really helps if you've got a USB keyboard. Otherwise scenes will take forever to write out. Another problem is that there are only about 30 scene templates to choose from, and the animations get a little repetitive after a while. However you can change camera angles, facial emotions, Sound effects, etc.

Wow, they are all pretty awesome! I also really like the Backlash one. They just look really professional, well done dude

Valencia joins Man Utd from Wigan

Manchester United have signed Wigan Athletic winger Antonio Valencia on a four-year deal for an undisclosed fee.

The 23-year-old Ecuador international is manager Sir Alex Ferguson's first signing since Cristiano Ronaldo signed for Real Madrid in a £80m transfer.

"Antonio is a player we have admired for some time now, having spent the last two years in the Premier League with Wigan," said Ferguson.

Valencia's transfer is reported to have cost United as much as £16m.

"I am sure his pace and ability will make a significant contribution to the team," added Ferguson.

have the chance to challenge for the biggest honours in club football here," said Valencia, who scored three goals for Wigan last season.

"Playing in front of 76,000 fans alongside players like Wayne Rooney, Rio Ferdinand and Ryan Giggs will be an amazing experience. I can't wait to get started."

Valencia has played 34 times for Ecuador, scoring four goals.

Well I'm glad Utd arn't wasting time and have actually started bringing in new players early this year.

Thanks for all the comments and feedback. I've got rid of the effect and played around with the levels a little.

I was bored and decided to create a mini poster for my TEW game.

Meh, I'm not all that great with posters, so yeah any improvements? :/

The box art has been revealed:

I think it actually looks pretty cool. One of the better covers I've seen in a long time.

Wasn't sure where to put this. I Started getting into UFC a bit after playing UFC Undisputed. Watched UFC 98 and liked it. I wondered what decent classic PPVs anyone could recommend. Thanks.

The Austin/Hart Relive moment is horrible, having to set up in certain spots all the time, all the while having everything reversed because it's obvious what you're going to try to do (and really, it's hard enough getting him in the corner, are you really going to chance losing him from it by hitting him first?). And of course, while you're trying to meet objectives, the AI is just trying to win, and since there's no escape mechanic, if you're in red health, essentially any hold will make you lose. Terrible.

Yeah I had the same problem in the Austin/Hart Match. After a forth attempt managed to get most of the objectives, then Austin got me in an armbar, and beat me

The presentation of the game looks incredibly well done. That Rumble was much better than anything I've seen in ANY Smackdown game.

Yeah, it's definitely the most realistic rumble match I've ever seen. I love the minor details put into it as well. For example Howard Finkel announces "It's now time for the royal rumble match". I also love the close ups on some of the wrestlers when they are eliminated from the ring. Little details like that add realism to the game. Looking forward to the weekend.

EDIT~ This screenshot is just awesome!

After playing the demo, I was slightly dissapointed at first because of the strange gameplay, but then started to get well into it. I'll probably buy it, but have no idea how the Smackdown 09 roster importing is going to work, because the controls are so different. How exactly are the move sets going to work? Not as good as the Smackdown series but a whole lot better than TNA impact!

I would have liked to have seen a few others in there like Doink the Clown and Eddie Guerrero. Anyways this game looks promising, can't wait for the demo to come out later today!
