That’s so shitty. They can’t even wait until 2026 to shut down 2k24?

Nope, once they realized the games weren't complete ass after 2k22 they started giving them one year cycle windows. Before all the servers and games were available and playable from 2k17-2k20 due to them fucking up so bad on 2k20. Once they realized people were happier with the new games they started shortening the online window before delisting. It's a pain in the ass for the autistic fucks, like me, that have the compulsion to buy games before they get delisted on PC. Thankfully Amazon still had codes for 2k16 and 2k18 so I was able to get them for Steam/Steamdeck

Switched my Xbox to Australia to play WWE 2K25 early. So far not bad gameplay is similar to 2k24 and the new additions are nice. Chain wrestling specifically and ledge interactions I really enjoy the underground match and the bloodline match is chaotic and fun. I like the update to showcase with the commentary and and removal of the slingshot tech.

Third person camera will take time to get used too but I like it. It kinda reminds me of the WrestleMania 18 game mode on GameCube were it's just Tekken force. I haven't touched my rise yet and I still have to fuck with the gameplay sliders.

Status and other Caw creators are already working on CAWs and Alts so that's dope. Apparently status will be uploading to both via Xbox so his caws should be accessible on both last and current gen.

I just got recommended a video from a proper WCW channel. The WCW channel seems to be somewhat known about, with 40-some-odd thousand subs, and is obviously run by WWE. I didn't know they had a WCW channel until today.

But I (and 180 or so other people who have also subbed to it) may have found the next little company-specific channel WWE will be launching. And it's an ECW channel. It's creation date is November 21, 2024. Same creation date as the WCW channel. There's no content on the ECW channel yet, and the profile is still blank.

 
I'm curious what Abyss' theme will be on 2K25. Will it be "Down In The Catacombs," "Blackhole," or something generic because TNA did not allow either theme to be used?

I would be happy just to have his OG mask as an alt attire. The one that covers his mouth.

Granted, that look only encapsulated a small portion of his career, but when I think of Abyss, that's the first image that comes to mind for me.

I hope they go with Cena sold his soul years ago for his hollywood career and not just he sold his soul to get no.17.

in some way I could see this happen, I think the angle is going to be played up over the next few weeks with the Codesters quest to heroically defend WWE from Hollywood Part-Timers wanting to hjiack the company, its pretty likely Cody ends up retaining at Mania imo, especially with Punks promo on RAW saying hes coming after Rock and Cena

why the fuck would you as a wrestling promoter do that? i would've sold that shit like it was legit, gave mariah may a "fine," booked a match out of it, and sold some tickets. thank you, fuck you, bye.
 
What has the smarks' current darling been up to?https://www.wrestlezone.com/news/15...nking-into-tissues-over-him-if-he-went-to-wwe
“If I’ve had gone [to WWE], they’d be f*cking w*nking into f*cking tissues over me,” Will Ospreay said. “But it’s the same. That’s why you have to separate it, otherwise, you drive yourself insane. I think if you have something, my wrestling is my passion, it’s my job, most importantly. But if you have something that you’re passionate about, you really don’t care about what people are saying who have never impacted your career in your entire life.

“None of those people, once upon a time, they were big hits that anyone that’s ever complained about AEW like the grifters or whatever they’re called. I don’t know if that’s the right term. That’s what everyone says. But even if they say something, it’s like they’re not impacting our show. We’re the second most profitable wrestling company of all time.

“That’s not talked about enough, and everyone wants to dig on it. I get it, there’s things that we could generally improve on and I think it’s fair to listen to some criticism. But for me, I don’t lose sleep over anyone trying to tell me how to wrestle. Because now, look at me. I’m a f*cking idiot. I know I am, but I’ve carved out this little lane for myself.

“I was destined to be someone that either worked in McDonald’s or pushed trolleys at Tescos. But because I grafted at this, and because I learned the trade over in England and over in Japan, and my enthusiasm, my passion comes over here, I don’t let things like, oh this is sh*t. Why? Because it’s sh*t. Well, that’s not fair. If you give me criticism and you give me points that I can work on, then I’ll try my best to work on it. I’m not going to get it right away, but I think that’s the stuff that people need to speak more about.”
