Honestly, The idea of a 1999-2001 Attitude Era mode interests me alot more then the 97-99 one. Exactly. The beginning of the AE were the seeds being planted. Once 1999 came, the WWF reached new heights. My personal favorite era was 1999-2002. Some of the best years to be a wrestling fan. Also, not sure if anyone pointed this out but WWE won the rights to use WWF on DVDs and Classics on Demand and stuff so I think we should look forward to seeing some really authentic stuff if they do decide to follow the AE

Honestly, as much as I enjoyed AE Mode, I enjoyed some of the unique stories in the last few years just as much.
For example, the WCW Invasion and Beating the Streak were great, fresh stories. Was RTWM mode broken at the time? Sure, to a certain extent. But I think with a new company, making a game that moves forward and not focusing on the past would be better.
To me, WWE 13 was more or less THQ's swan song, which is why it featured something that people had wanted in a game for a while. But it's been done. In fact, that fact THQ did the "extra chapter" which did cover things for the time frame some of you are looking for makes me thing they are even less likely to touch that time period.

Can't say I have anything to disagree with there. They certainly never made it seem like they were going to a do another year with the Attitude Era even before they looked like they were on their way out. As much as I'd love to see it covered again, it doesn't change all of that from being true. We'll have to wait and see what we end up getting this year.

Back to the managers discussion I really hope Zeb Colter somehow makes it in.
Ricardo Rodriguez. (Why isn't he playable anyway?) Zeb Colter. Paul Heyman. Vicki Guerrero. Teddy Long. Jim Ross.
My wants, and of course some legend managers if they fit in.

I mean, yeah, they may not be supposed to say anything, but if they're going to have a build available to play, then info is going to get out. I'd imagine we're not too far from getting some official news as well, if that's true.

Either that or the fact that I didn't end up getting my copy until November because of that big storm in my area last year.

I know this is probably obvious, but WWE 14 is confirmed for PS3 and Xbox 360 at the very least. It's something at least. According to 2K's release schedule that is.
