Cool. Pack_Man, I know you called to start the thread but since you weren't online in time for when the other thread hit 500, I let KevyR start it. No harsh feelings. :P

I can't believe I missed this from IGN's Q&A P2:

"What weapons will be available? Do we finally get barbed wire or kendo sticks etc? With the addition of ECW One Night Stand, I feel this is a must.

Cory Ledesma: Foley's Barbie (bat with wire), regular baseball bats, glass balls, pool sticks, tire irons, televisions, ring bell, championship belts, and several other things are all in there. We've added weight to them too. So you're going to move and use the steel steps a lot slower than you would when using a bat. The damage will be proportional too."

Ya that was good news about the weapons... I hope that they implement seperate stages of bleeding when hit with certain weapons.

Yeah, I saw that amd am excited at the possibities (more crap to bludgeon Triple H with, after all).  I really hope the Barbed Wire bat instantly busts wrestlers open.  But, what the hell is a "glass ball?"

It seems THQ/Yukes are going all out as this is the last wrestling game to be on the PS2, while we have to wait, for what I think, will be the next standard to wrestling games, and yet to be titled for the PS3!

The next gen version of the game should add more content to make matches more realistic.....

For Example:

Elimination Chamber should have a set of moves when the person is against the chain/glass, instead of just throwing them into it.  Also in regular matches, I think if they implemented moves involving the steel steps and ring posts it would make for a better game as well.

For those who thought the overall ratings for those guys are permanent, well it's not the case. Here is what they said towards the end of The Rock article:

Yes friends, the SmackDown Countdown is over. Please remember that all statistical attributes are considered temporary until the final version of the game ships this November, so if you end up with the gameand things don't quite match up, you know why. Check our table below for links to the superstars and legends that we so diligently covered over the past couple months. We hope you enjoyed the countdown and we'll see you again next year!

Me tooh! :lol:

Man I just check out one video of the TLC Legend, and it was horrible. They keep climbing the Ladder and someone falls or push the Ladder and then everytime something happens, the commentary keeps changing and it's out of order. Plus when Bret falls back onto a table, it doesn't break, and that sucks, cuz it's supposed to. He just lays there and bounces back to fight some more. I hope they fixed that problem.

I agree.  The match didn't get good until the ladder was out of play.  The AI was terrible.  I will never sim out one of those matches.  Hopefully things are better when I'm in the match and have some control of the goings on.  But the match was really not good.

Is there going to be a way to get Jake without a PSP?  Cause I do not plan on buying one for one legend.

I hope Jake Roberts is unlockable without the PSP though! Maybe it's the last thing you will have to do on the PS2 version.
