Sounds like I'm spending 99 cents.
Does anyone know if PS3 still has that got to shut it off after you download them glitch?

 

[KingPK]

I think you just have to back all the way out to the title screen to activate DLC. That's what it says when I go to the Shop.

After you download the dlc, back out of the Shop, then press the PS button and quit the game straight to the XMB. If you don't, it will reset all of your threads, entrances and Universe Teams/Rosters.

Alright thanks. Shame they can't fix that glitch they have known about for the last, what, three games?
So download, back to the shop, quit the game. So no need to reboot the system. Alright cool.

I remember making him in wrestlemania 2000 and assigning him a jumping tornado ddt

Erm.. Crash is in WM 2000.

Nope

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

I think he was thinking of No Mercy. Crash just debuted that summer (and didn't have an Excalibur "to be named later" Jericho model ready made for the game).

 

[Mattdotcom]

Cesaro is fun to play as

 

[vivisectvi]

Sandow, too!

 

[Mattdotcom]

That's good to hear. The downloads were taking way too long last night, and I could only get Cesaro.

 

[KingPK]

Yeah that was a bitch, especially when (on 360 at least) you download the full update first and then the like 75 KB license keys for all of the other characters and it was that portion that was taking forever.

 

[vivisectvi]

I have to say, as well, with Sandow it looks like they spent more time on the specifics of his entrance model than most of the default guys with entrance attires. The title belts actually look like they fit him, rather than some weird floating hoola hoop (ie: check out Jericho or anyone else with a robe attire wearing a title belt.. weird).

As far as the downloads go.. what is with their habit of making you download everything separately? If I paid for it all already I should be able to download them all at once. So annoying..

 

[Haws Bah Gawd]

Never understood why we still have the floating hoola hoop effect with title belts on modern systems.

 

[vivisectvi]

It's even worse with CAW's.. it literally looks like an Andre the Giant sized belt floating around their waist.

 

[HSJ]

Laziness.

 

[Mattdotcom]

Tazz coming out wearing the ECW title on my friend's copy was the second* funniest thing we've ever seen

*First place is Sid popping up from behind the guard rail like a Dancing Inflatable Tube Man

 

[vivisectvi]

So what do you guys, who play it, have set up for Universe mode? I've reset mine a few times.. I was originally doing a three brand thing (WWE, WCW, ECW), but I felt the rosters were too thin so I went back to two:

WWE
Raw on Mondays
WWE Title (98-02): Edge (Legends version)
IC (Current): DDP
Tag (98-02): Rhodes & Sandow

ECW
ECW on Fridays
ECW World Title: Brock Lesnar
TV: Dolph Ziggler
Tag: New Age Outlaws

I've scrapped any Diva's division (used mostly as valets) and I've also moves Superstars to Wednesdays. Thinking of doing separate PPV's as well, as they seem too stacked with title matches only when both brands are participating.

The ECW brand also has a pretty sweet mega heel stable going right now called "The Order" consisting of Lesnar, Punk, Cesaro & Tensai!

 

[2GOLD]

I only got

RAW is WAR
Smoking Skull belt
IC title
Tag Team (the older one)
Diva

Smackown!
World Title
European
the other tag title
Women's championship (though that is switching soon to Light heavyweight)

I got Shotgun on Saturdays using both rosters and Clash of the Champions on Wednesday using both rosters
With at the moment, unofficially the Light Heavyweight is defended on Clash a lot and the Hardcore title on Shotgun.

 

[KingPK]

I just have RAW and SD with the Undisputed title taking the place of the WWE title.

 

[Toxxic]

Apologies if it is common knowledge as I just found out, the next WWE 13 DLC will be available Monday at 5 PM EST. So ready to Sandow.

Apparently it's not out until Tuesday now.

Any news on release for the UK? I can't find it in the PSN Store.

 

[Captain of Outer Space]

WWE - I mostly let this one sim by itself. Raw as the major show, Smackdown as the minor.
Big Show - Undisputed Champion
R-Truth - Intercontinental
Primo & Epico - Tag Team
Beth Phoenix - Women's

WCW - Friday Nitro is the major, Saturday Thunder is the minor
CM Punk - World Champion
Christian - US Champion
Jack Swagger and Kurt Angle - Tag Team

ECW - One major show on Tuesdays
Rob Van Dam - the only champion on the show, since the brand is so small.

With this game you have to get the DLC through the WWE Shop inside the actual game. Did you check there?

 

[Haws Bah Gawd]

Fuck create a move. I made a sick RKO off the top rope where both wrestlers are on the top rope, wrestler a launches wrestler b into the air, as if for a flapjack, then catches him with an RKO. The game refuses to let me finalize it.

No sir, I did not. But now I have, and I am happier as a result. Cheers!

 

[FLAM]

The new Lionsault DLC looks terrible. What's the problem with recycling the one they used years ago?

Seth Rollin's old finisher as Tyler Black is now in the game, as is El Generico's top rope brainbuster. I've downloaded great CAWs of both guys, so it's a nice perk to have these moves available.

 

[Haws Bah Gawd]

Refresh my memory on Black's finisher.

 

[FLAM]

It's called the Small Package Driver in the new DLC movelist.
God's Last Gift, Rollins vs. Cesaro

The Omega Driver is also in the game, for any Chuck Taylor fans.

Yah, that Lionsault if awful.. Why is it diagonal??

It doesn't even look like he connects with the ropes and he just weirdly accelerates in the air onto the other wrestler. The other moves are great but that one just looks terribly lazy.

 

[KingPK]

For some reason Brock turned on his tag partner Ziggler (who had beaten champion Daniel Bryan in a cage match), so I just rolled with it and replaced Dolph in the stable with Cesaro (who squashed Kofi to win the IC title).
