I saw Roodes entrance. Holy s*** that looks good. Love that the crowd sings along. The roster reveal was good. Only surprise was Ember Moon on the default roster. I am also surprised that Arn Anderson and Typhoon werent revealed with Zbyszko and Earthquake

Oh my, Bobby Roode's entrance just blew me away! Seriously, this entrance itself is a HUGE step up in quality. The crowd sounds completely different and much closer to real life, AND they sing along to the entire theme! They've got him rotating on a physical structure at the beginning. I'm blown away by this.
After last night, it was the perfect time to release this entrance. It gives me hope for other entrances that the crowd sing along to (Nakamura, Zayn, Cena).
Also, Joe more or less confirmed Fatal 5 Way matches in the roster reveal, which is something I was really hoping for, so that makes me very pleased. And Graves saying that there are match types "that we haven't even heard of" seems to indicate that Match Creator may be introduced.

I know Tony Pizza Guy revealed that when he visited 2K

Edit: Found a WWE 2K18 blog post that confirmed it: wwe.2k.com/news/entries/wwe-2k18-feature-set-reveal-developer-blog-postThey also confirmed a free roaming camera for Highlight Reel! Having recently returned to producing my caw league in 2K17, the lack of a free roam camera is a hindrance, so it's fantastic to know that they've brought it back in 2K18.

I have a theory about the weird match lighting. They look so bright in the ring because all the entrances are so dark compared to what they used to be, so the models had to be brighter to stick out in this new darker arena setting. Just a thought, I know all, but it's a thought.

Loving those new entrances! Roode's is amazing. I also noticed they have the new NXT arena during Ember Moon's entrance, and the older version in Roode's entrance video which is cool.
I've heard a lot of the guys that went to that event last week said the B-Roll Gameplay footage was really bright and washed out compared to the actual game so let's hope it does in fact look better.

Glad to see modern day Batista back on the game. So is the Batista in the "Cena Nuff" set a more classic Batista, like with hair or something?
I also wanted to ask in case anyone on here knows but, do you get the RVD and Batista DLC with the Deluxe Edition of the game as well, or just the "Cena Nuff" Edition?
All I know that comes for certain with the deluxe edition is the Season Pass, Superstar accelerator, Pre Order Kurt Angle, and you get the game 4 days early.

But that is the only thing along with the Season Pass.

That Roode entrance is amazing. Won't be seeing it all that often though, I'll probably put him with a James Storm CAW and make Beer Money.

They must've scanned Angle so putting his current face on the flashback ones looks off. Especially the hair one. The game looks great regardless. Hopefully some of the other entrances actually reflect what the guy does on the ramp. Brock Lesnar and AJ Styles come to mind from last year

Awesome stuff unveiled today. Looks like retro Kurt Angle got the same treatment like DDP over the past 3 years. Current face scan with outdated hairstyle. Other than that he looks awesome. Nothing really jaw dropping as far as the roster. Everyone revealed today I expected to be in. Hopefully next week they will reveal some 205 live guys and new current roster guys. Like Curt Hawkins,Rhyno,No Way Jose,Andrae "Cein" Almas,AoP. Plus some new legends like the LoD

Everything looks amazing. I love the looks of ECW Angle, but the 2001 version looks like he has a combover. Its almost as flagrant as 2k15 Hogan. Speaking of which...
So happy to see Earthquake included, and Kerry and Kevin. Although it was pretty obvious from the start, today pretty much unequivocally proves that the 'official full roster' from last week was a bunch of BS. Nevertheless, as ridiculous as this sounds, just seeing Hogan's name gave me a glimmer of hope. Now I can no longer ignore the fact that Hogan's exclusion is pretty much a foregone conclusion.

I think the problem with Kurt Angles hair on his 2001 model is that his hairline is too straight, in real life he was receding by that time! You could use the 2001 Kurt Angle singlet on the 2006 ECW bald angle model in Create mode and you would have a Summerslam 2003 Vs Brock Lesnar look!

Game looks good. I bought my Xbox OneS last year Thanksgiving night and got 2K17 that night for $25 I believe? Was my first WWE game since 2K14 but I never bothered doing the season pass or any DLC.
This year being more into gaming I pre-ordered the deluxe edition cause I figured why the hell not ya know?

I had a feeling Angle '01's face would look like current Angle so I was ready for that, but I was really hoping they were going to nail Angle's look when he first wore that Black/Red/Blue attire and not specially the ECW version with the ECW mouth guard. I figured they only described it as "ECW attire" just because it's the only attire he wore there but it's not the biggest deal I guess.

I had a feeling Ember Moon would be in, can't wait for so many caws to take her finish 😁.
The fact they sing along with Roodes theme is amazing, yet it might get annoying real quick probably.
