As some if you may have already saw, Brodus Clay finally came back to the WWE but he debuted with a new persona and a new theme song.

Not really a big deal. I haven't gotten to WWE 12 yet, but if it's like previous games, it's not much trouble to change his outfit's color, swap his entrance music with a custom soundtrack, and give him a different entrance.

CrimsonEngage4863d ago

Good lord his debut was awful. People were expecting him to come out and be a monster and instead we get the funk-a-saurus.

princeofthabay4863d ago

awful? I found it to be entertaining. Besides another big heel isn't what Raw needs right now with Kane in the picture.I also liked it because it was a surprise WWE hasn't surprised me in a long time.

MrBeatdown4863d ago

I can't say I'm a fan of the gimmick since I don't think he can go very far as a comedy character, but it was nice that they tried to do something aside from the tired "me big, me hit you hard" gimmick that so many big guys get stuck with.

And Brodus really seemed to give it his all. He looked like he was really into it, so at least it will be entertaining while it lasts.

@MrBeatdown
yea its a silly gimmick but people like john cena and rikishi made careers off silly gimmicks

Reibooi4863d ago

When they introed him and he came down the ramp I couldn't help but roll my eyes. But as the match went on he did these tiny little things that made him funny and entertaing so while I don't think it's the best gimmick in the world and it will really limit where he can go I do think it's better then him just being the stereotypical strong man they were trying to make him earlier last year.

@Reibooi
gimmicks dont limit where you go the fans do

I think the guys is in terrible condition, no matter how talented a wrestler is, they really have to be in good condition.

Brodus clay looks like a human flapjack broiled in grease...
Thats as wrong as a fat cop going persuit on foot....

Someone who was supposed to be a monster turns into a funkasaurus? But when I saw him wrestle his moves were pretty good and he was entertaining, who talks during a match. They needed someone like this and I think he can do really well.

Talk about staying ahead of the game. 2012 just started 10 days ago and boom the world of wrestling is a different place.

If any type of game needed constant updates, it would have to be wrestling games.

As for Brodus Clay...what a twist! I guess they needed a persona that can sell merch. I just hope his mic skills can match his exuberance.

CoryHG4863d ago

This game sucks. Stick with allstars.

2pacalypsenow4863d ago

Im pissed they dont update the rosters for a whole year

Are Wrestling Games Getting Worse?

Some of you may know that the latest instalment in the WWE gaming franchise 2K20 was released late last year to generally poor reviews. Some of this was based on graphical issues, but mostly it was due to the many glitches and bugs found – many of which are hilarious to witness.

Fire Pro needs more love. The last PS4 title gets regular playtime from me.

I hear that there are financial troubles at the studio, but I'm hopeful for a Switch port one of these days.

The Wood1934d ago

Anyone remember Giant Gram Wrestling on the Dreamcast .....

Rambokind1934d ago

Ah hell yes! That was loads of fun.

Acecalibur1934d ago

Fire Pro just gets better. Buy it.

micdagoat191934d ago

I have Fire Pro for PS4 and PC but it seems more of like a Sim creator rather than people actually playing out matches. I still dont like anything as much as the N64 games

b163o11933d ago (Edited 1933d ago )

Golden Era of wrestling games in the Golden Era of wrestling. I've been contemplating going back and getting a N64 and getting those classic's
WWF Wrestlemania 2000
WWF No Mercy
WCW vs. nWo Revenge

micdagoat191930d ago

Yeah its the only wrestling games I still play consistently for fun.

TheTony3161934d ago

Yes. The last great wrestling game was svr 2006.

addictedtochaos1934d ago

Yes, the WWE ones at least. The last good one was 2K14 and the last great one was Here Comes the Pain.

6 Abominations Brought to Life by These Games' Character Creators

If Dr Frankenstein were alive today and also not fictional, he wouldn't need to faff around building a creature out of dead bodies then trudge around the Arctic trying to kill it - not when these videogame character creators exist. Just look at the unnatural horrors he could have cooked up in WWE '12, Spore, Saints Row 4, Soul Calibur 5, NBA 2K15 and The Sims 4.

The Evolution (?) of WWE Games Moves Animations

One week from the next gen release of WWE 2K15, let's take a look at how moves and animations have evolved (?) through the WWE Games series... After comparing the character models with last week's video, we now look at the animation of several finishers / signature moves.

Good comparison, they've got worse with age.

Thrillho3825d ago

Many of the old animations look better than the new ones especially the Sweet Chin Music and Goldberg's spear. The 2K14 Clothesline from Hell looks awesome though.
