DangerousDamon Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 Below, the official full roster for WWE Day of Reckoning: SmackDown! Talent Kurt Angle The Undertaker John Cena Rey Mysterio Eddie Guerrero Big Show Charlie Haas Chavo Guerrero Hardcore Holly Rhyno Doug Basham Danny Basham Booker T RVD Mark Jindrak Raw Talent The Rock Triple H Chris Jericho Kane Randy Orton Shawn Michaels Christian Val Venis Garrison Cade Batista Matt Hardy Ric Flair Chris Benoit Lance Storm Shelton Benjamin Edge Divas Molly Holly Victoria Trish Stacy Legends Andre the Giant Brett Hart Greg the Hammer Valentine Roddy Piper Brutus the Barber Beefcake Non-playable Talent Mike Chioda Paul Heyman Coach Eric Bischoff Vince McMahon There it is. Simply put, if a WWE wrestler isn't on this list, they are not in the game. Credit:IGN.com Among the many people missing are: La Resistance The Dudleys London and Kidman Tajiri Hurricane Lita Rene Dupree JBL
Lightning Flik Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 So the current Smackdown Champion is not on the list? WTF?! That's rediculous. The current Smackdown Tag Team Champions as well not on the list? As well as the current Raw Tag Team Champions? There are just so many wrongs here.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 Well, thats a pretty weak roster of the current wrestlers. Jindrak and Cade make it? No Eugene either.. Why can't people who have been in the previous 2 games, like The Hurricane, Lita, Dudleys, Tajiri be in the game. How hard would it be to have them in the game? And JBL not being in it might be a good thing.
Lightning Flik Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 He's still the WWE Champion. He should be there.
deancoles Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 How does Lance Storm make it into the game?
MarvinisaLunatic Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 He's still the WWE Champion. He should be there. I think by the time this game comes out he won't be.
Exslade ZX Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 Because most of you have to realize..this game has been in production for a while..and the base of all the models, ,is from earlier this year...or technically, later last year. So you won't be seeing a lot of things from now..just because it's coming out now. (which makes sense). Although they did do things, such as update Takers look..so I don't see why they couldnt update a few others. And I dont know why the Dudz aren't in the game...they had said, it'd be the WMXX roster...so everyone at the event in the game..but evidently they changed their minds.
Scroby Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 The lack of roster doesn't surprise me at all. Gamecube wrestilng games have had the weakest rosters so far. As long as the CAW is good along with the storyline and controls I ain't bitching, but if they ain't oh nelly look out!
Just call me Dan Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 I'll take Hart over JBL if it's true. Fucking awesome.
Guest Staravenger Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 I'll take Hart over JBL if it's true. Fucking awesome. 20 bucks says you can re-create the Montreal incident in 3P mode. Be Hebner the referee, no sell a ref bump, and ring the bell while Bret's escaping the sharpshooter.
DrVenkman PhD Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 Bret Hart = good. I'm surprised no one has complained about Doug and Danny Basham being in the game. Does anyone know if LEgends still have shit for entrances in this game? If I can't hear Beefcake's theme, he's as useless as he is in real life.
Lightning Flik Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 I'm surprised no one has complained about Doug and Danny Basham being in the game. I was about to make that complaint. I know it seems silly, since they don't do much, but if they've got LANCE STORM, they should have Doug and Danny Basham.
Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 SmackDown had BETTER have a better roster than this.
Exslade ZX Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 I'm surprised no one has complained about Doug and Danny Basham being in the game. I was about to make that complaint. I know it seems silly, since they don't do much, but if they've got LANCE STORM, they should have Doug and Danny Basham. Ummm..you just missed the point of what he said. They ARE in the game. But the Dudz aren't.

David Blazenwing Posted August 9, 2004 Report Posted August 9, 2004 How GARRISON FUCKING CADE made it into this game and not The Hurricane blows my mind. THQ just totally ruined this game for me by not putting my favorite wrestler in it.

THQ just totally ruined this game for me by not putting my favorite wrestler in it. Edge is in the game. Okay, my OTHER favorite wrestler, The Hurricane. Edge and Hurricane are my two fave wrestlers. I KNOW Edge is in the game, I was referring to the lack of Hurricane. Smartass.
Guest ally mccoist Posted August 11, 2004 Report Posted August 11, 2004 Ok so this really pisses me off because I thought it would be a fat roster. Out of those missing only JBL and Eugene really bother me because, well, I WANNA PLAY WITH FUCKING EUGENE AIIGHT. Fucks sake. Piper will do I suppose. Annoying thing is, according to what i've read, in the DOR season mode you get to fight a bunch of jobbers. So we get no-name jobbers and Brutus Beefcake instead of Eugene and JBL. Great.

Here is a vid of the story mode in action. http://www.gamingring.com/~mike/Archive/WW.../dorstory10.wmv

Here is a vid of the story mode in action. http://www.gamingring.com/~mike/Archive/WW.../dorstory10.wmv Thanks for the link, looks pretty cool. What I meant by the jobbers thing is that, from what I heard, in the story mode as your CAW you have to fight these no-name jobbers in high school gyms and such before you can even join WWE. Then when you do well enough, and get into WWE, you get to choose between Raw and SD. This site here gives a pretty comprehensive list of everything in the game and explains the story mode, although how accurate it is i don't know.
Mrnoitaull Posted August 12, 2004 Report Posted August 12, 2004 No Jamie Knoble? Bah! exactly.. but hey least we have Garrison Cade
MarvinisaLunatic Posted August 13, 2004 Report Posted August 13, 2004 While various sports franchises have had licensed music for years now, wrestling titles were late to include such a feature. Now thanks to THQ, Nintendo gamers can finally put the days of bad sounding midi tunes and cheesy guitar rifts behind them. Such is the the fully licensed musical selections for WWE: Day of Reckoning, in which you can wrestle and pummel your way to victory to. Public Enemy/Anthrax:"Bring the Noise" Shocore: "Bonecracker" Shocore: "The Angle" Prething: "Can't Stop" Breaking Benjamin: "Polyamourous" Breaking Benjamin: "Firefly" Tantric: "Chasing After" Swollen Members: "Bottom Line" Zebrahead: "Alone" Zebrahead: "Falling Apart" Styles of Beyond: "Superstars" Uh...thats just...great.
SuperJerk Posted August 15, 2004 Report Posted August 15, 2004 If Bret's really in this game I'm going to be seriously shocked. **checks IGN** Holy fuck.

dubq Posted August 17, 2004 Report Posted August 17, 2004 Ho-Lee-Shit! I could be wrong, but from the sound of the video they have of Bret [the three seconds at the very end] I think he has his original theme as well!

I could be wrong, but from the sound of the video they have of Bret [the three seconds at the very end] I think he has his original theme as well! I thought it was his theme. But it's generic music from Smackdown 5 and WM19.
DangerousDamon Posted August 18, 2004 Author Report Posted August 18, 2004 Videos of the new Moves More moves Even more moves You can find more of this stuff at Gamingring.com. You can register in like 5 minutes. And you'll have access to nearly 2 weeks of coverage on this game.
LJSexay Posted August 29, 2004 Report Posted August 29, 2004 *bump* this game comes out in a few days, is anyone else looking forward to it? I know it has the weakest roster out of the other systems and their respective games.. which IS a downside, but have you seen some of the videos for it at ign? It's looking REALLY nice, and it looks to play even CLOSER to No Mercy than even WM XIX! I too think its a shame that alot of qrestlers did not make this game.. but some of the glaring omissions were in last years game, so one the one hand I can always play as them there.. and on the other, why take out people period? Such a dumb move. But I'm still gonna buy the game.
