Sorry if I'm late to the party, but I'm going to put this in the "you can't be 
ing serious" department:
This is Sheamus' new shirt. Why don't they just finish the job and draw the single-family home of a black family in the background and set the cross on fire?
It's like the WWE is daring their white trash audience to wear this shirt just to see what would happen to them.

WWE '12 is actually pretty great once I figured it all out. Of all the years to take out the training portion, it's the one where you change the control scheme? Still, they wouldn't be THQ if they managed to fix 15 things while breaking 15 others from previous years. Sigh.
Control scheme-wise, I'm not totally sure why exactly this set-up is any less complicated than the previous year. To me, the stick thing was actually pretty intuitive... I kind of just feel like I'm pressing 'A' and things just happen without any sort of consistency. Or, at least, none that I've grasped yet. Once I re-trained myself (which admittedly may have been the source of my issues), I really started enjoying the game.
Things that make no sense: So, you can vacate titles in exhibition mode, but WWE Universe requires you to either use them or stick them on someone you don't care about. That would be fine if there weren't like 20 titles in theing game. They give us the ability to set the major titles to use for a brand, but not to just turn the titles off? Bizarre. Still, at least now Kozloz is CHAMPION OF EVERYTHING, so I guess he can't complain.
Speaking of titles... I love the old titles. I love that they're announced simply as WWE Title or Intercontinental Title. Problem is, I'm anal enough that I just can't get past the entrance nameplate reading "Attitude Era's WWE Champion". it. Still, I get to use the Undisputed title instead of the Spinner, so that's a plus.
Since I'm a huge HBK mark, some quibbles. One, they broke the DX entrance. They have the video and the song, but the entrance just plays the video full-screen the entire time. Whoops. Two, they had the announcers record entrance announcements for The Mean Street Posse, Pretty Mean Sisters, and the Varsity Club... but they didn't include D-Generation X? FFS. Three, by making HBK downloadable, you can only 'easy edit' his entrance. I thought this was bullshit last year, so the return doesn't help. Four, it's nice that HBK's signature-move elbow drop makes him, uh, stay on the mat afterwards like he took the move. That needs fixed.
Anyway, for all the complaints, I am enjoying the game. It's got a good mix of people, the presentation is great, and Universe mode actually seems to have been freed of enough of the contraints that hampered it last year. Gameplay itself doesn't feel as smooth as previous years, but I'm assuming it's because theybuilt a whole new engine bolted the changes onto the previous engine.
Still, for all the issues, it's at least a showing that reveals more effort than I've felt from any of the past 5 Smackdown games, so that's a positive.

WWE '12 really is just SvR with a new control scheme. Same clumsy an unnecessarily deep menu system, same graphics, during Royal Rumble matches guys will inexplicably run and then just stop, sauntering their way to the ring with little rhyme or flow - overall, there are only very slight differences. This feels like old wine in new bottles for sure, and while it's fun, I can hardly call myself "impressed." I'm glad I bought it (DEMOLITION), but it's gonna gather some dust while I play Saints Row the Third.
But, man...Demolition. About bloody time.
No Nexus theme this year is disappointing. Scorch, can you add that to your to-do list?
What? Nexus tanked badly, sure, but their song is a guilty pleasure of mine.

It's sad, but I want to say that Demolition is the only completely new-from-the-ground-up Legend(s) in the game, right? With the exception of Savage, obviously.
That's a big part of the reason I'd never say 'impressed'. They seem to have tried harder, but it's still a lot of same 'ol, same 'ol. Having Demoliton is awesome, but so many of the other Legends are just blatantly ripped from past Smackdown games. HBK is from Smackdown '06. Foley is from '08. Nash is from whatever the last one Nash was in is. Booker is straight from his second-to-last Smackdown game (his final one was as King Booker). Vader is DLC from '10. I get that it's not worth putting the effort in when compared to other stuff, but it's just so blatant it irks me. Nash especially, since they chose his least memorable career phase after the inception of Diesel (barring TNA, at least). Great, I get to play as 2002/2003 era Nash. Sigh.

I think the most bothersome part, to me, is the menu system. It's such a goddamned disaster to even try to get into a single one-on-one wrestling match, god forbid you want to preview someone's CAW before you download it. Actually, clumsy is an understatement.

My menu system moment... I despise the highlights that run after a match. To turn them off completely you either have to select it every single match OR go through and edit every single match type in the match creator menu. Not just One on One, Two on Two, but even the different match types under each of those headings. ing bizarre.

Hate that crap, was in last year's game too. Took me like 15 minutes yesterday just to turn it all off.

I didn't initially care for the game, but once I got the hang of the new control scheme, I found myself having a lot of fun. The AI is just smart enough and reverses the right amount of moves to where it's actually a challenge for me. Reversing a punch into a finisher is fantastic (Reversed a punch into the Zack Attack).
Gameplay, to me, feels the smoothest it's ever felt. People don't warp into positions (as often), and aside from a few clipping issues, move transitions and everything look great.
The ally/rival glitch is really annoying. You add an ally or rival, you add a second one and the first one disappear. You add a third and the second one moves into the first's place, so you have your 2nd person in the 1st's slot, and the 3rd person. Same for 4th and 5th. It's like a game of lights out, really.
I messaged one of the devs on Twitter and he and I talked back and forth about moves not connecting. He basically said that the hit detection is pretty spot on this year (it's still a bit wonky). CM Punk's standing knee drop still doesn't connect for me when I'm right next to someone.
The thing that wins me over is that you can customize damn near everything. This level of customization is staggering (yes, I've played Fire Pro) to me. I can't wait to download characters, edit arenas, etc. It's probably my favorite SD so far, but it doesn't feel like the full overhaul that they kept claiming. It feels like a babystep in the right direction, though.
Myke, I'll add the Nexus theme in, just for you. I had four people PM me for the link to my theme pack, two of which asked to be "subscribed to all future packs".. which made me think that I should just do this from an e-mail address, that way you guys can e-mail me requests and I can e-mail out links to packs.. so if you want to be on the subscription list, PM me your e-mail address (I want to keep this strictly for CAGs which is why I'm not posting my e-mail address) and then you can just send me requests whenever and I'll send out theme packs when they're ready.

I like the game better overall more than last years version. Seems like they took a lot of stuff out because of the new engine. Can you still put chairs on someone's neck and ankle or wedge them in the corner?
Yeah, definitely doesn't feel like the complete overhaul that has been hyped to no end. There's a fresh coat of paint, and that's about it.
Also, can they have fubar'd the controls any more than before? I think they strive each year to complicate the piss out of them as their main goal. I find myself constantly using the right stick to grapple and getting lambasted. Not to mention the melee button doesn't always register right away and I always get nailed first and have to reverse strikes to get the upper hand.

Fun show. Opening promo with Storm and Angle was okay, but the censoring of everything was distracting. Loved EY and Rudy arriving via big wacky bike. Could've done without the terrible ADR from Tenay talking about the turkey suit. Mex-Am got squashed by Morgan and Crimson. Loved Robbie E not trusting EY, Rudy, or THAT TURKEY! Tremendous. Karen came out to insult the bitches and whores division, who are also now strippers apparently, and forced them to wrestle in their lingerie. They all came down like they were buddies, so I guess Velvet's over Winter drugging her best friend. Karen was beyond annoying here. Velvet complained about wrestling in her underwear...which is different than her wrestling with her ass hanging out somehow. Mickie complained, got beat up...yelling shouting calling each other trash. Ugh. Thanksgiving Thong Thunder had zero thongs, but was fine fanservice anyway. Taz was just tremendous on commentary. They worked the girls wearing more than usual into the storyline, now, Karen's going to pick their gear. I approve of this. Jeff Jarrett did an awful impersonation of Jeff Hardy - like a 0.1 on the Punk scale. He didn't dress enough like him, and the body language was terrible. And he got boo machine'd. Hardy defended his own honor, then guys brawled. Roode came out, Anderson came out...punches...security...the usual thing they've done with Jarrett and Hardy for a month, only with more dudes.
Roode, the TNA World Champion, can't afford his own car insurance. Can't wait until WWE has Subway ads with the roster saying they like $5 footlongs because it's all they can afford. AJ, the world title contender, was shown wearing a turkey suit in the history of the turkey suit video. Well, that was kinda stupid. EY intro'd REFEREE AND TURKEY MAN Rudy Charles. Tremendous. Then EY gave Robbie a mandible claw with the turkey suit head. This ruled. Taz had five million breakdowns in this match and they were all great. Tenay gave a history of the EY-Robbie feud, and shockingly didn't call the Turning Point PPV Turkey Point. Robbie cheated to win, got exposed, went into standing convulsions and then got beat with a piledriver. He should be fine - his hair should've protected him. EY's steroid detector led him to Robbie T, who had to wear the suit or else Robbie E would lose the title. Then Rob ran all wackily up the ramp with the suit on. This was just tremendous stuff. And then main eventers walked down the aisle all serious. Weird disconnect there. Rudy rode a bike to help EY train for next year's turkey suit match...before a bike accident nixed that plan. Greatness. Back to main eventers...really now, just keep the comedy stuff on its own. Mixing it with the main event stuff makes that harder to take seriously. Real fun main event that built up the Roode-AJ match well by having Roode act like a chickenshit by not getting in the ring, getting in, beating Anderson, and then intentionally low-blowing AJ after taking a brief ass-kicking. RVD squished the out of Daniels with the rolling thunder, who was bleeding from the mouth before beating BobVD with a cradle. Loved Hardy coming down to save the day for AJ and further show AJ that he was dependable. Perfectly fine storytelling here that furthered a few major feuds. AJ won with a flying forearm with more asscrack than usual since his tights were split. That was funny...and then Roode beat him up with the belt while wacky z-level scary intense music played. They really need to stop using that because it's ridiculous.

Daniel Bryan went for a big flashy sequence off the ropes and I clotheslined him as Sheamus and damn near took his head off and pinned him with it. That moment alone was easily worth the $64. That and the damn Titantron finally works.

Here's my gripe with WWE 12:
Other than that, the game is fun. The walking around bits backstage, like in every other recent WWE game should just be a damn cutscene because they are SLOW and pointless, as there's ONE possible outcome. They don't even let you run backstage unless your wrestler (sorry, Superstar) is in a hurry.
In Road to Wrestlemania mode, there are "rules" that are not fully explained.
Example: I'm currently in the "Rookie" or "Created Superstar" portion and I'm in a six man elimination tag match with Bryan and Mysterio. No rules are mentioned before the match starts. Bryan starts off as the legal man, but I didn't want to play as Bryan so I went to tag the created superstar. Instead, the game tags in Mysterio. Okay, let's try this again. The game tags in Bryan. The problem is, you see, that in this particular match I'm not allowed to tag in a legal member of my team...which suprises me because he's the CREATED SUPERSTAR that the game forced me to make. Frustrated, I play as Bryan and I wear down Husky Harris and slap on the Cattle Multilation and the "Breaking Point" submission meter pops up. No matter how hard or fast I tap the buttons, it won't fill up the whole way. Why, you ask? Because I'm not supposed to make him tap. The game simply will not let me, nor will it allow a three count. I'm supposed to hurt Husky until a button icons pops up over his head, then I press that and the game plays itself via cut scene.
The cut scene reveals that Bryan gets eliminated and then the game forces me to play as Mysterio, and repeats this process. THEN and ONLY then do I get to use "Jacob Cass", the created superstar. How about telling me at least a LITTLE about this instead of causing me frustration and/or confusion?
Call me crazy, but that really pisses me off.
Also: The Sheamus story and gameplay was fun. Playing as HHH during the "Outsider" portion (whatever the hell THAT means) was SO BORING. If I wanted to see HHH squash guys on the undercard, I'd tune into Raw. WWE 12 isn't very realistic either, as it shows Hunter wrestling on Smackdown more than once a year.

Loved Henry's promo, didn't so much like Show being a dick and attacking him, but the Danielson cash-in was a fantastic deal. Sets up a future heel turn pretty well, although I'm not really sure how much sense it makes to have Henry not wrestle tonight but be able to wrestle on Tuesday. Gabriel-Hunico was fun, but was memorable due to the commentary, which brought up trending in the least-annoying way on a WWE show in a while. Hunico badly needs a new theme. Women's tag was a match. Loved Nattie bringing back the bridging sharpshooter for the crying spot, and they set up Kaitlyn's heel turn well. Teddy came off a bit like an asshole pitting Henry in a cage match. Loved the Dolph and Sheamus bit backstage, and the match itself was fun. Ryder hit an awesome flip dive I don't remember seeing him do before. Loved Cole saying that the Book End was an egotistical move, only to be corrected by Booker saying it was just a move. Loved the finish, with Sheamus doing THE greatest counter for the Zig Zag, leading to Dolph taking a great bump for that, then an even better one for the Rough Ryder.
I was hoping Danielson focusing on himself instead of AJ backstage AFTER SHE WAS BENT IN HALF would be a sign of a heel turn, but she didn't sell it, so I guess she's okay. Loved Jinder saying that Ted's an idiot for hanging out with commoners. Glad to see Heath back - he's the best JTTS the company's had in a while. Ted beat Slater after Dream Sleet and many Cole rants that once again took away from anything going on in the ring, which Josh brought up numerous times. Loved Cody's promo against Booker backstage. Fatal 4 way main event was great. I loved that Danielson beat the IC Champ, showing he COULD win it if need be, before getting his world title shot. Also loved the LeBell Lock coming during a cover, which was telegraphed nicely by him holding onto Cody's wrist throughout the cover. Cody's post-match beating set up Danielson and Cody possibly feuding over the IC Title if Danielson loses on Tuesday, although that would seemingly have to wait until after the Booker feud is over. Aside from a few issues, I really dug this show.

Booker - MARK HENRY JOINED HIS OWN HALL OF PAIN!
Henry - You people acting like you’re happy to see me in pain! BIG SHOW DID THIS TO ME, AND YOU’RE HAPPY ABOUT IT!? WHAT KINDA PEOPLE ARE Y’ALL!? WHO DOES THIS KINDA STUFF!? This is not the treatment a heavyweight champion deserves. THIS ISN’T THE RESPECT YOU GIVE A CHAMPION! But Big Show, I stand here hurt, BUT I’M NOT BROKEN! All of you, you revel in the fact that I stand here injured CUZ YOU WISH YOU COULDA BEEN THE ONE WHO DID IT TO ME! Yeah, you go ahead and clap - this is the last chance…
Crowd - YOU SUCK YOU SUCK!
Henry - YA SEE!? YOU KNOW THAT I KICKED YOU IN THE KNEE! BUT YOU ACT LIKE I KICKED IN YOUR PRIVATE SPOT CUZ YOU WANTED TO MAKE ME LOOK BAD! You wanted to make me the bad guy. Lemme tell you why I’m out here - to set an example for tha kids that watch me and show them that a champion fights through pain. A CHAMPION FIGHTS THROUGH INJURIES! See, I wanted to compete tonight. But Teddy Long and the doctors would not let me cuz I’m not cleared - I’M INJURED! I’m not only the world’s strongest man, but the world’s toughest man and the heavyweight champion.
Show - Now Mark, you know the only way the world title can change hands is through a pinfall or submission. You claimed to kick me in the knee? Stop lying! You know where you kicked me and why you did it - you knew you’d be DQ’d cuz you felt the title slipping away. Now, as far as your ankle goes… I just did to you what you did to me. Next time…
Henry - THERE WON’T BE A LAST TIME. YOU’RE NOT JUST THE WORLD’S LARGEST ATHLETE, YOU’RE THE WORLD’S LARGEST LOSER! I’M NOT AFRAID OF YOU! (gets punched)
Cole - HE KNOCKED OUT A DEFENSELESS INJURED MAN! HE WAS DEFENSELESS, AND NOW HE’S UNCONCIOUS!
Booker - Big Show was trying to be diplomatic.
Booker - D-BRY DONE IT!
Teddy - Wait a minute! I got here as quick as I could, but this happened so fast. Mark is right - he has not been medically cleared to compete, so there’s no match. Daniel, I’m sorry - you’re not the champion. I’m sorry - come on Daniel. Sorry. Daniel, hold on - here’s what I can do for ya. Let me have that. Daniel, lemme give you this first. Now since there was no match, you never cashed that in. I tell ya what - I’m going to give you another opportunity for a title match by winning our main event tonight - it will be a fatal 4 way between you, Cody, Barrett, and Orton! THE WINNER WILL FACE MARK HENRY THIS TUESDAY ON A SPECIAL LIVE HOLIDAY SMACKDOWN! HOLLA!
Booker - DIS KID DON’T MIND GETTING IN A FIGHT - THAT’S WHAT I LIKE ABOUT HUNICO!
Booker - Sin Cara’s done - he’s finished.
Cole - I hope he comes back and flies with the greatest of ease into your rear end!
Booker - That wasn’t with the greatest of ease, but it was nice.
Cole - HOW MANY TIMES CAN YOU SAY THAT PHRASE!?
Josh - It’s probably trending worldwide.
Booker - KAITLYN, WHAT TOOK YA SO LONG!? I THOUGHT IT WAS A TAG TEAM!
Asana - I want to go to big party next week. Will there be missiletoe?
Teddy - I’m sure there will be…
Henry - TEDDY, HOW COULD YOU LET THAT HAPPEN!? WHAT IS THIS ABOUT ME HAVING TO DEFEND THE TITLE NEXT WEEK! I’M INJURED!
Teddy - I talked to the doctors, and they said you’re ready to go!
Henry - DO I HAVE MATTELL WRITTEN ON MY HEAD!? DO I LOOK LIKE A GAME!? WHY YOU TRYING TO PLAY ME!?
Teddy - Next week’s main event will take place inside a steel cage…
Henry - KEEP SURPRISING ME MAN! YOU GONNA GET YOURS!
Ryder - WOO WOO WOO!
Sheamus - You know it.
Vickie - Show some respect and appreciation for Dolph Ziggler - THE ONLY MAN TO WIN TWICE AT SURVIVOR SERIES!
Dolph - It’s okay Vickie - unlike me, these people have to worry about double chins and double mortgages - they don’t know what it’s like to be double victorious. THE CHAMP IS TALKING. And it’s not just showing off - that was me making history. Hashtag heel - THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
Josh - The All-American American is a two-time all-American and two time world champion in WWE.
Cole - Sheamus looks like a vampire - you know, the white skin.
Josh - YOU CAN JOIN YOUR FAVORITE SUPERSTARS AND DIVAS WITH THE REST OF THE WWE UNIVERSE AT WWE SOCIAL!
Booker - GREAT TAG WORK BY SWAG AND ZIG-ZAG!
Dolph - I’M! DOLPH! ZIGGLER!
Booker - ZAGGY AIN’T SHOWING OFF RIGHT NOW!
Booker - STRAP A ROCKET TO THAT BOY AND SHOOT HIM TO THE MOON!
Jinder - YOU FORSAKE YOUR HERITAGE AND MONEY TO HANG OUT IN A PARKING LOT WITH COMMONERS!
Josh - Ted worked his way through college - not wanting to use his family’s money.
Cole - HE’S A FOOL! AND SO ARE YOU - YOU’D BETTER HOPE YOUR FAMILY’S GOT MONEY BASED ON YOUR PERFORMANCE TONIGHT! And HAPPY BIRTHDAY BY THE WAY! MAYBE YOU’LL GET NO MORE SMACKDOWN FOR IT! YOU’RE AN ANNOUNCER IN NAME ONLY!
Josh - There’s a match going on…
Booker - Thanks Josh.
Cole - You’re not a TV announcer - you’re just playing one on TV.
Booker - That may be true.
Cody - Everyone thinks I threw water in the face of a former 6-time world champion and king of the ring - no, I DID IT TO A LOWLY COMMENTATOR. IN MY MATCH AT THE SURVIVOR SERIES, I COULD SEE THE MOCKING LOOK ON HIS FACE, AND I DID SOMETHING ABOUT IT. WITHOUT A MASK, I’M FREE TO GET MY REVENGE ON RANDY ORTON, DEFEND MY TITLE, OR WIN THE FATAL 4 WAY AND WIN THE WORLD TITLE. THE WORLD IS MY OYSTER! I CAN DO ANYTHING I WANT, and as a mentally-limited commentator might say - I can dig that, sucka.
Cole - So lowly, or limited, what do you have to say about that?
Booker - I’M A PROFESSIONAL!
Cole - You’re all washed up.
Booker - D-BRY JUST WENT SUICIDE!
Henry - You people acting like you’re happy to see me in pain! BIG SHOW DID THIS TO ME, AND YOU’RE HAPPY ABOUT IT!? WHAT KINDA PEOPLE ARE Y’ALL!? WHO DOES THIS KINDA STUFF!? This is not the treatment a heavyweight champion deserves. THIS ISN’T THE RESPECT YOU GIVE A CHAMPION! But Big Show, I stand here hurt, BUT I’M NOT BROKEN!

So, WWE '12. Universe Mode. Raw.
In the past 4 weeks, the AI has turned CM Punk, Kofi Kingston, Beth Phoenix, John Cena, and The Rock heel. Every time I turn Punk back face, the AI turns him heel again the following week. Each time I've had a 'surprise' tag partner, it's Husky Harris. The icing on this shitcake is that Santino has gotten WWE title shots at the last two PPVs for no apparent reason whatsoever.
Short version? My WWE Universe seems to have gone full Russo.
Sigh.

In the past 4 weeks, the AI has turned CM Punk, Kofi Kingston, Beth Phoenix, John Cena, and The Rock heel. Every time I turn Punk back face, the AI turns him heel again the following week. Each time I've had a 'surprise' tag partner, it's Husky Harris. The icing on this shitcake is that Santino has gotten WWE title shots at the last two PPVs for no apparent reason whatsoever.
Short version? My WWE Universe seems to have gone full Russo.
Sigh.[/QUOTE]
So it sounds like they are giving you an authentic WWE experience. Booking makes no sense from week to week and gives you the feeling they have Russo back on staff. THQ was going for authenticity and it sounds like they did a magnificent job of it. Can't fault them for that. Maybe they stole the dart board from the writers room and somehow generated a virtual dart board code equivalent to decide story lines.

Speaking of Punk and heel, am I the only one who continues to read his media interviews thinking, "man, this dude has an opinion of himself that's so significantly greater than he really is in the ring that they oughta call him 'Hitman'"?
Don't get me wrong, he's a solid wrestler. A great wrestler. But he's teeming with an absurd level of overconfidence in every interview he does.

[quote name='JJSP']Brodus Clay tweeted today that he will destroy John Morrison tomorrow night on Raw, but it was quickly pulled. Combine that with the news that Morrison is indeed done with the company, and I think we can expect a Morrison stretcher job tomorrow night.[/QUOTE]
This is very good news! Brodus Clay finally re-debuting, and the possibility of Morrison getting legit injured, and off my TV forever?! Tomorrow night will be the greatest night ever. EVER.

I have the highest level of respect for you, but here's how I look at it (And honestly, perhaps I'm wrong):
He's a character in a TV Show. When he does an interview, the common fan could give two shits about who he "really is" as opposed to who they see on television. He's not selling "Phil", he's selling "CM Punk". That's the name on the shirts, the name on the DVDs, the name advertised on Raw. CM Punk's character believes that he is the best and no one can touch him, etc etc etc. Is it egotistical? Yes. Is it annoying? Sure. Is this what the "actor" really believes? Maybe, maybe not.
I've seen signs that say "It's still real to me". I've been watching since 1985 and I view it as a gloried soap opera. I DO appreciate well-executed angles and excellect wrestling matches of course, but I try not to take it seriously. Now is this guy an egotistical asshole in real life? Maybe. Who knows for certain?
Just my two cents.

Absolutely.
From what I've seen after the thrown away "Summer of Punk" angle, personally, his present in-ring character has become a bit unlikable, as well.
