EG Goldberg is a must for me. Only need that and Elias to complete the set. I too was waiting for it to drop in price. I don't think we'll have a problem getting it at retail though. The other EGs have been warming the shelves in my area.

Not that im a fan of simulation, but ive gone back to wwe 2k18 already. They're exactly the same games once you finish the career mode. I hate how slow and sluggish and unresponsive it is. It takes forever to climb the buckles, but at least in 18 of you hold r1 while running up them they spin around fast and jump They turn slow in 19. Its only because its so convenient to not have to get up to turn on a system and stuff that i reach for it. I saw a video today that shows u can mod a ps3 and itll store and play ps1, 2,3 games on the harddrive. If i could put all the ps2 wrestling games on it and figure out how to transfer my memory card data to it i dont think id never need anything else

Its the best wrestling game ever imo.

I don't know, I'm a huge fan of the latest games. The Royal Rumble is great!
I have a 88-90 roster going right now on season mode. It's great controlling storylines.
The only thing I'd want to change is more Legends (not user created), and more arenas (like a classic Royal Rumble arena). I'd also like more WCW classic events, like World War 3

Its okay in small doses. I tend to play a match or 2 and turn it off til next time. I hate how theres only one camera angle for playing. Makes it feel like everywhere is the same when u know theres a great background stage to your left. And u know they could give you options. When you pause it you can playback a million different angles. The whole simulation thing makes it feel like youre just putting clips together as opposed to playing a game. I hate not being able to use the d pad too because thats another option we used to have. The mashing buttons for submissions is still whack. The cpu will get you a million times quicker than youll get them. I wish they had a 3rd arcade option where u dont do anything and if they tap, they tap. Same for pins add a pure mash option. The fact that everythings done by actual wrestlers makes nothing feel that youre really beating up anyone. Everything is held back to a degree because nobodys really striking anyone beyond what you'd see on tv. To think there were years when we could see 2 wcw and 2 wwf games in one year and now were being fed the exact same game with the exact same arenas and character models for multiple years is insane. Rant over lol

New Japan teamed up with Fire Pro a little while ago so there is an alternative to WWE2K.

Wish the cpu followed you outside for fighting on the ramp instead of running away. The ability to climb out and back into the cage is awesome, but being out there by yourself is pointless. That, the cpu jumping up all the time when trying to land a top rope dive, and the way you need to position yourself for a strike or weapon attack are my gripes for fpw. Throw in even announce table breaks and id say it was perfect

Go back to the old SmackDown games. That would make me very happy. HCTP was so great. I vastly prefer the fast paced arcade style to the sluggish simulation-based games. Right now I've been playing NHL19 and that game is becoming too much. I played a game where I had 26 minutes of penalties. I adjusted the slider to put penalties at just 1/4. Next game I played, the CPU had 12 minutes of penalties in one period. I keep ending up playing near-20 minute periods in real time because of the penalty time scaling and all the stoppage of play. I stopped the time scaling and as a result I had a fast-paced hockey game that took place entirely in the neutral zone. Every pass was being intercepted by both me and the CPU and if either of us tried to carry it in, we'd get rocked from behind during a chase. Who wants to play a game that simulates boring early 90s hockey? I don't think there's too many situations where I should be playing against the CPU while being on a 5-on-3 powerplay for an entire period. Silly stuff.

I bought WWE2K19 this year and I might have played it 5 times. The Flair POP made it worth it for me though.

Oh man don't get me started on EA...they have had a monopoly on hockey video games for years now. I know the NHL2k games were not the most successful, but with what they're doing now with NBA2k every year and the detail they put into those games...man if they could just get back into NHL I think many people would jump ship and EA would be forced to make changes. They don't have to try anymore because they've been the only game in town for so long. Its kind of like WWE when you think about it. They became number one, killed their competition, then the jury rested on their laurels and their product went to crap.

Has anyone messaged Walmart to find out about flashback series 3? I'm thinking of doing it as every Walmart I have been to lately has basically no WWE section. Something new must be coming

Something new must be coming I noticed this at one of the stores near me. One row of the WrestleMania basic set and that's it. Shrunk right down.

Did a few Walmarts yesterday in hopes of trying to find the Basic Ronda. One Walmart had her set, but didn’t have her. Other Walmarts just had old stuff. Tried another Walmart today. Nothing.
