Lol, i did that also, took me a while to figure out how to do those new mini-move things on the game, where you grapple and press the right analogue stick down.

Woah, thankfully it's in the early stages at the moment, that roster is short.

Lol, yeah that took me a while too. I still haven't unlocked the ECW arena, Stone Cold or completed all the challenges lol. They're too hard. Anyway, yeah the roster is short but they have quite a lot of time to add to it and hopefully they update the roster with the recent draft picks, like Booker T on RAW. I'm hoping that Benoit stays on the game and Eddie is still playable as a legend.

Yeah, hopefully, it would be funny to see Vince McMahon on the roster, seems he was the ECW champ for a few months.

I unlocked all the challenges, even did the Mickie James vs The Great Khali where you can't leave the ring , foolishly i deleted the game save from my hard drive on 360, gotta do it all over now to get the last 2/3 achievements.

Lol I'm hoping for some good legends on the game as well. I want the original ones like The Rock, Austin, Bret Hart, Masked Kane and Eddie but I would like to see a bigger list of legends on it. The legend roster on 07 was quite good tbh.

Yeah the roster was quite good, although, i don't think masked kane is a legend, considering he's still an active superstar, i wonder if they will add Sensational Sherri, i think she would be the only diva ever in the HOF to be on a SDVR game?

[Tbh]

i think you can cancel out benoit from the roster tbh

If they added Sherri they would set a new record, so they'd probz be up for it. She could be HBK's manager if they put alternate attires like they did for non masked Kane with the masked version. So there could be old school HBK which would be good if they did old school HHH for when they had DX back in the day when HHH wore tights.

I doubt it tbh. He's already confirmed on the game and it would be disrespectful if they removed him since they kept Eddie Guerrero in the Smackdown game series.

That is another thing they also need, alot more ring attire for different superstars, in the WWE shop for 2007 you could only unlock two new outfits for JBL and HHH (If i remember correctly).

Wayne would be right, it would be disrespectful, i'm pretty sure we'll see Benoit in the legend's part of the game if / when they make a 2009 version but for sure he won't be removed from 2008.

Yeah, you're right they did do alternate attires for JBL and HHH. I hardly ever used HHH's suit as he looked a bit stupid wrestling in it. They should do alternate attires for Kane, when he was masked, Rey Mysterio, when he had multiple colours of costumes, Undertaker, when he was legendary back in the early 90s or the Ministry of Darkness look and probably alternate attires for HBK and HHH. I hope that they edit HHH in this game as he has looked the same for the past few games so I hope he has the DX logo on his pants.

That would be cool & more DX'y stuff because they only had one entrance style for DX and you could only do that with two tag partners, so hopefully they'll add a style for a single superstar and another thing that needs doing is the announcers, they need new lines!
