Activision Interested In TNA Wrestling Game [Rumor]

Ian Fisher writes: The WWE may finally have some competition when it comes to the world of video games. While the WWE recently wrapped up a contract which will see all future games representing the brand published by Take Two Interactive, one of the last competitors in the wrestling world may be gearing up for a video game comeback.

Even though I want a Here The Comes Pain formula, they should consider AKI(WCW/NW Revenge, WWF NoMercy)as the developers.

Say what you will about TNA. Another wrestling game is great news for any wrestling fan and I welcome this move.

TNA Impact! on the Xbox 360 may never be rated as one of the best wrestling titles, but it was something different compared to what the WWE games were.

If a TNA video game can take the formula from games like WCW/NWO World Tour or even WCW/NWO Revenge, then it's destined to be something special and give the WWE video games a run for its money.

Sucks that the TNA game never got a full sequel as well. Impact was a decent starting point, but it could have evolved way beyond what it was if Midway didn't crash and burn.

I have been hoping that when THQ dies and WWE shifts to a new publisher it would stir interest in TNA wrestling games.

I really hope it's true. Can't get enough of seeing two big strong men in undies rolling around with each other.

Look, to be honest the FTC should just stop.

MS has A/B and nothing has really changed yet...if you are worried about 5-10 years from now...just drop it cause the future is unpredictable.

Take this week's news, that 4 Xbox exclusive are going Multiplatform.

Yeah man I think Microsoft here getting to probe is kinda wrong unless you only have accessed to necessary information not complete access imo.

Abriael78d ago

Obviously they aren't giving them the password to Sony's computers and telling them "help yourself."

Eonjay76d ago

"Microsoft allowed to probe Sony and Ubisoft"

Sounds hot...

ApocalypseShadow77d ago (Edited 77d ago )

Maybe Microsoft should also talk and get help from their "congressional influencers" at The Capital. They had plenty to say on the matter before the acquisition. They are mighty quiet after the purchase went through. Almost as if they had a stake in the matter.

Abriael77d ago

Could you perhaps explain how this is related? I'm honestly curious since you seem to bring it up rather often.

He is pointing out how corrupt MS is, and how money talks. I think.

KwietStorm_BLM77d ago

I would say read between the lines but it's pretty damn clear as it is.

Bathyj77d ago

You should be careful upsetting Sony too much Microsoft.
You might need them to sell your subpar games soon.

TornRaptor77d ago

The games will become the best things ever all of a sudden.

Bathyj77d ago

Yeah I really doubt that.
I'm struggling to think of one I really cared about missing.

Hofstaderman77d ago

Bwhahahaha. Ain't that the truth.

Mr_cheese77d ago

The only exclusive im personally interested in from Microsoft is Elderscrolls and that's not even got s release date.

Everything else is genuinely of none interest.

OtterX77d ago

Microsoft never waits for the probing to be consensual.

derek77d ago

This isn't a major victory. They're essentially being allowed to call witnesses in regards to agreements they reached with Sony and Ubisoft which was initially blocked because Microsoft didn't make the request through the proper channels. This case is dead, there is no way the ftc will be allowed to unwind this acquisition.

Sephiroushin77d ago

they probably know case is death but want some proof to sue them for a few millions regarding other stuff, the ftc loves to sue everyone, be sure that as soon as all this end they will just go sue MS and end in a settlement.
