If they don't build the 2K showcase around goldberg it'd be real dumb, but it's not like austin hasn't ever been in the WWE games either.

We'll have an Undertaker-style Beat The Streak mode, but this one comes with a taser DLC to bypass it.

Hopefully they license all the appropriate music so I can have Goldberg's WCW theme as well as his terrible Megadeth theme.

I'm really looking forward to seeing if they even go to the effort of having his full entrance in there or just go "eh, effort" and just starting with him coming out on stage

He had his full entrance in 2k14, it's likely still in the code considering their method of building new games. You dig deep enough into 2k16 and you will find artifacts from the ps1 era. Hell, the Osaka street cutter is still the same animation from Smackdown 2. I wish they had kept some of the moves from the Here Comes the Pain era games as they had a knack for making great looking move animations at the time.

I really miss the custom standing/running animations and random martial arts moves that used to be included. I'll probably never be able to satisfactorily recreate the capoeira fighter I had back in HCtP.

Hopefully they can add Doug Dillinger and a bunch of other uniformed security to give him a really true to life WCW entrance.

I think it'll be structured like The Rise and Fall of WCW and Goldberg will just be part of it. Maybe the final boss or something.

A HHH showcase would be interesting to see who they would include. It would be tough to ignore Chyna, for example. Marc Mero could also be included (he won't).

I know it's an incredibly long shot but with Goldberg and such in I'd love to see a whole Showcase devoted to big, well-produced Past vs Present feuds like All-Stars had or Paige vs Blayze from last year.

I know Madusa has been active on social media a lot but I still think it's awfully generous to call her the "present." just kidding. this is a joke about paige's push being dead and how she's in the past and no one misses her. please support my patreon

I would love that too. The cutscenes they produced for those are as good or better than anything on Raw.

e: and just lol if you could do Goldberg/Ryback in the game but it won't ever happen in real life now

You'd need to have Ralphus in then for the Jericho version.

I also kinda liked the Streak/lolcenawinz modes. It's fun trying to beat an AI that cheats as long as you KNOW that it's cheating going in.

I would intentionally fail just to see what infomercial-caliber fuckups Trips would pull out. Trying to flex and somehow falling over, etc.

The Goldberg preorder (a massive step down from the FUCKIN TERMINATORS, who were a huge step up from Sting) also comes with two exclusive WCW arenas, so either they're finally going for a WCW-focused showcase or they're just baiting fans who've been waiting for an actual Nitro set for years

Pah, not talking about that gymnastics doing scrub. I'm talking about a true master of shootfighting, Lightning Foot Jerry Flynn.

(Also, I'd make it so you'd play as Jerry Flynn, the match is hideously unfair, and if you actually manage to beat Goldberg, the game goes all MGS3 on you about how you've created a time paradox)

I'd imagine a lot of the workers from the Legends pack won't make the cut. I also hope for Terminators but without a (huge bomb of a) movie to promote I highly doubt they'll get the rights.

Boy, I think it's about time I tell you the difference between a man and a woman. A woman isn't a woman unless she's pretty. And a man isn't a man unless he's ugly.
Goldberg was in the game two years ago. I don't understand why Meltzer was saying this is a huge accomplishment by 2K.

Well, the rumor is a HHH Story mode. Can't wait to see the matches on that:

- but that's not what hap- *BEAT ULTIMATE WARRIOR AT WM12 IN 30 SECONDS*
