The Official "WWE Day of Reckoning 2" (GCN) Discussion Thread

Okay, I'm kinda peeved. :evil: IGN, nor GameSpot, nor GamingRing (and never will, unfortunately), has shown any new entrances and gameplay footage in the last week. Damn THQ trying to hide everything about this game. WE NEED TO KNOW!

Although, I do have this feeling that THQ will blow the lid off of DOR 2 near/after SummerSlam.

EXACTLY! *sigh* What in the blue hell are those two (or more) things that THQ is hiding from us?

I want:
1)Title Belts in exhibition
2) Elimination Match Rules

Kitanya

I'm sure that's what over 95% of the DORFs want. ;) (DORF = Day of Reckoning Fan)

Well, you have no need to worry, because those rumors are false (people need to stop these false rumors). Nintendo has already stated more than once that the Revolution will have NO touch screens on the controller. Besides, I really doubt the "revolutionary thing" about the Revolution, would be rehash of the Nintendo DS.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I am still wondering when the sixth and finally legend will be announced?

Come on, at least throw in some else in there, even if it is Doink the Clown. :P

Okay, I know the game is almost done and cannot add anymorer characters, but that is still massed up (if that is true).

Please don't do that. It's considered SPAM when you don't finish your sentence, or when you just give out a few words.

FINALLY, after a long time of waiting, new screens appear! And I like 'em. :D What are y'all's thoughts on 'em?

By the way, WrestlingGames.de should be posting a new update for DOR 2 on Friday after their conference in Germany.

Well, I'm kinda pissed at most of these answers. But I'm hella glad they fixed the problem with the ladder. Grabbing the ladder while someone was on it was just plain wrong in the developer's part.

HOly crap, that's alot of "nos".Biggestgeekever

[QUOTE="Biggestgeekever"]HOly crap, that's alot of "nos".TripleOnline

At least they put in Batista's new tron in. :roll:

Here's something I did out of sheer boredom (on GamingRing). My edits of.....

Randy Orton's DOR 2 entrance:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=41FZZGHJ

Orlando Jordan's DOR 2 entrance:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=24MMES95

Sorry, but I couldn't get Chris Masters' music to sync up with the vid. I guess the (WrestlingGames.de) vid ran a little too slow (, or it's because it's the entrance from the early build and hasn't been fully tweaked in that version). Hopefully, he'll be the next guy to be posted on IGN.

[QUOTE="Biggestgeekever"]HOly crap, that's alot of "nos".Shadows_Fury

Ditto..This Game Sounds Like DOR1 With Better Clothes And Character Models..And With A Few Characters Which Most Of Us Have Already Made CAW's Of Anyway..Weak!!!!

Here's a breath of fresh air for y'all.....

Wrestlinggames.de copy was from the E3/March or April time period!!

August 19, 2005 - Nintendo's booth here at the German Games Convention was packed with all the important stuff that is to appear on GameCube, GBA, and DS here in Europe. Unfortunately, much of the games are demos translated (or not translated) from the E3 2005 builds. One of the biggest titles here at the show, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess was just that -- the exact same demonstration of "outside" and "inside" areas.

With Zelda delayed until 2006 and Nintendo's refusal to bring its titles to the Tokyo Game Show in past years, it's unlikely we'll be getting an updated hands-on anytime soon. Hopefully, Nintendo will release the demo to fans before the year-end or show more of the new wolf-driven gameplay areas to the press before of the all-important end of the year. We're itching to know more.

I told you guys, the builds are from the E3 time period! The copy that wrestlinggames.de played was far from done! So don't take thier Q&A seriously!

Well...that is big sign of hope. Either way, I am still getting the game.

My edits of those new WrestlingGames.de DOR 2 vids

Please note that most the songs I used are UNCENSORED!

Fatal 4-Way HIAC vid

For this one, I left off a couple of seconds of silence at the end of the vid.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=3348U1EN

Anyway, the music I used for it was "New Disease" by Spineshank.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Arenas vid

I used the beginning of "Happy?" by Mudvayne, followed by some entrance themes. I dragged Batista's new theme (which will probably not be in DOR 2) over the menu options 'cause I thought y'all weren't gonna like just a few seconds of it.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=18S5X52R

---------------------------------------------------------

Create-A-Superstar vid

Now this one really took a lot of time. First off, the song list is "Big Time" by The Soundtrack of Our Lives, the beginning of "Bird is the Word" (I found this on NewGrounds ), the beginning of "B.Y.O.B." by System of a Down, and some of "Today is the Day" by Dope.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=38TS3MRK

As for the Create-An-Entrance segment, I used Booker T's theme for the most part, 'cause that's what the guy in the vid chose for his theme to be.

---------------------------

WWE Shop.com vid

For this one, I used most of "Phenomenon" by Thousand Foot Krutch.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=34JY1IE9

---------------------------------------------

Last Man Standing vid

Here's my edit of the brutal Last Man Standing match...

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=22GPHIQA

I used "Now or Never" by Dope, "St. Anger" by Metallica, and the beginning of "Liberate" by Disturbed (uncut). I cut some of the end off of the vid, since it had a little bit of HHH's entrance starting.

-----------------------------------------

Triple H entrance

It's time to play The Game!

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=31VICMLA

---------------------------------

Kane vs. Triple H: HIAC

This is a bout for the ages between Kane and, as William Regal would say, Triple Heysh!

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=29PK2IRC

The songs I used are "When It's All Burning" by Strata, and most of "The Hell Song" by Sum 41. Followed with, of course, the theme song of the winner of the match.

----------------------------------

Story Mode vid 1

There's lots of music goin' on in this vid. :P

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=35F3U5Q8

I used the beginning of "Only You" by Portishead, "Adrenaline" by Gavin Rossdale, and "Nameless Faceless" by Fozzy. Of course my load time music is in nyah too. "Bird is the Word", and a surprise load time song at the beginning of the Story Mode match. ;) And of course, the wrestlers' theme songs are in nyah. Randy Orton's theme, and I used the bWo's theme for the CAW. I dragged a theme at the end over the locker room scene, and I got rid of the leftover scene at the end of the vid. Why? 'Cause I'm the video game master, Jackov, DAMMIT! :P

-----------------------------------

Story Mode vid 2

I'm back! And better than ever! I've got a knack.....For making Burt Reynolds suffer! :P

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=36DEVI1V

This vid showcases the beginning of the events leading up to your way back to the top. Find out what's in store for you at the near beginning of Story Mode. (And I left in Tajiri's and William Regal's brief entrances at the end.)

----------------------------

Fatal 4-Way HIAC 2 vid

The continuous string of punishment continues!

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=37JRK7RU

To make this vid a little more "hellish", I used "Smack My B**ch Up" by The Prodigy (uncut, obviously). :D

----------------------------

Tutorial vid

Hey, it's Tutorial. It's nothin' much but a cheap way to earn money for WWE Shop.com for us DORFs. ;)

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=26MD3L29

Some of y'all wrestling enthusiasts may remember this music. It's Jaime Noble's 1st theme (and John Cena's 2nd theme). (Sorry, but I forgot the name to it. :P)

If you're new to the DOR series, PLEASE play the Tutorial. It'll be worth it. (b'-')b

---------------------------------------------------

Hope y'all like 'em, and have a nice day!

Is there any word on who's going to reveiw this game first?Biggestgeekever
