Yeah and it comes out in 5 days!

There isn't any official release date yet. I hope the mod will some day have all of the wwe2k14 superstar and comprehensive attire from different era and all of the WM1-31 Arena. One last thing is mod an authentic version ronda rousey in as well and patch it to enable male vs female just like in the past version of SVR series.  :laugh:

Why are you guys so excited about 2K15?! Every version so far was crappy, a lot of graphical glitches, bugs, etc. A mediocre game. And unfortunately it's about the only one with the WWE stars, so there's no other choice out there. Wait, I think I just answered my question  :laugh:

Well, for LOC and myself, it's saying on Steam that it's releasing on April 28th; "This game will unlock in approximately 5 days and 18 hours"

Yep, you explained it at the end there. :p It's the first WWE game on the PC in over 12 years; that alone is worth getting excited. Yes, I have heard it's utter sh**e, but it's better than nothing at all, and I'm confident that modders will be able to fix it and prove once again why it pays to be part of the glorious PC gaming master race. pcmasterrace.png

It's really a shame that there never was a GOOD WWE game out there. I guess their budget doesn't really include PC and consoles games as much, but it's a bad business decision if you ask me. If they would provide a good, fun wrestling experience I'm pretty sure that they would draw many people to their TVs to watch the real thing. But I guess this is also Vince's decision, the guy is too old to believe in video games...

Why are people soo surprised about the PC release? I swear there was a video of John Cena confirming it as far back as last October. Pretty sure I saw someone mention it in this very thread.

 

 That was probably me, because around that time last year rumors were floating about online about a PC version. But 2K denied it left and right, as did WWE and anyone else involved. And we are so surprised (regardless of rumors from 6 months ago or not) about a PC release, because they've never done one before. It's a....surprise? :p

A few weeks ago, they explained it didn't come to PC due to inadequate amount of time but have some sort of plan to release the next version along the console. Since then, i thought they abandoned for releasing it WWE2K 15 and out of the blue....

Just got off the phone with Brian Cage. He said that Season 2 was actually supposed to start taping next month, but it got postponed to late summer/early fall.

I'm not sure if this has been released publicly yet, but I know a few of you guys were unsure if it had been renewed yet.

I should post more stuff from other Lucha Underground talent in the coming days and weeks as we get closer to releasing the next issue of Tag Rope Magazine.

Edit: I've been informed from Lucha Underground that it hasn't been confirmed just yet, but they're having conversations, so take that for what it is. From the conversations I've had with the talent it seems like they're fairly confident and it's just a matter of time until it's officially announced. Cage, as well as myself, might've jumped the gun a bit. But it definitely sounds like LU won't be done anytime soon.

I just re-watched this year's WM. This really was the best WM I've seen in a looong time. It really makes you wonder who had the most input on the matches, Vince or HHH. Also, it was the first time that another match eclipsed Taker's match (he was always the main thing to watch at WM), and I'm talking about Sting vs. HHH. Not only that the match was surprisingly good, given Sting's age, but to see DX and nWo there, in the same ring, it was absolutely incredible, even if the outcome was not the one I wished for. Cole was spot-on, I had goose bumps. It's moments like these when you remember that all people get old at one point, no matter how much you would want them to live forever. I could spend 2 lifetimes watching nWo or DX and I wouldn't get tired, but unfortunately we all have an expiration date. 

The only thing that I regret is the place of WM and the fact that it was in day time. A closed space would've been much better, for acoustics and pyros. But it was a great WM, I really couldn't ask for more. Too bad it's only once a year...

Agreed.  I downloaded it to watch on a long flight.  I went into it with the attitude of "Look, I'm just watching this because I need reference for storylines picked up in Raw - I expect this to be a terrible Wrestlemania".

 

Best in years!

Seth rolins is probably going back to mid card within 2 years or shorter. The finishing move just isn't that fascinating or too plain. Deam ambrose really is the one that can bring something fresh but attire is unprofessional.

    • Weekend PC Game Deals: Anno 117, Final Fantasy VII, Rematch, and more

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Weekend PC Game Deals: Anno 117, Final Fantasy VII, Rematch, and more by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Weekend PC Game Deals is where the hottest gaming deals from all over the internet are gathered into one place every week for your consumption. So kick back, relax, and hold on to your wallets. The Epic Games Store's mystery giveaways may have ended, but its regular freebies didn't miss a step this week. The double drop was for copies of Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King. Speed Freeks lands for multiplayer racing fans, but with plenty of competitive shooting elements too. You will be piloting Ork buggies, tanks, and aircraft modeled after the popular tabletop miniatures while trying to complete objectives and pass finish lines. Next, Ouroboros King is a crossover between chess and tactical roguelikes, offering the chance to create your own army with special rules to beat incoming foes on the board. The double giveaway on the Epic Games Store will be available until June 11, and replacing it will be Citizen Sleeper and ROBOBEAT. The Humble Store brought a new charity bundle to check out this week too. Landing with the name The Complete Inkle Library, this is a large collection of interactive narrative puzzle games from the publisher Inkle. This begins with Heaven's Vault, four parts from the Sorcery series, 80 Days, Overboard, and Pendragon: Narrative Tactics within the starting tier for $9. Hopping up a step to the $12 tier gets you TR-49, Expelled, and A Highland Song for paying at least $12. If you go for the $20 tier, you get four e-books from the Heaven's Vault series.

    • Microsoft releases major feature updates for stock Windows 11 apps

      By Neeo · Posted

      When will the Photos app be updated to remember the window size and position when reopened? They addressed this issue in a 2024 version of the app (though I can't recall the build number). Unfortunately, after that specific version, the problem persists! Please prioritise this fix in your K2 schedule. Additionally, the Snipping Tool has lost the ability to capture the Windows Taskbar starting from the 2024 version!

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
