Guest JebusNassedar Report post Posted May 27, 2005 The site was updated, is the big deal. Looks more like D than FPZ did. Has up to date fake (huh.) rosters (DDT being shown in one screen), REAL CAGE MATCHES, and of course more moves. Four videos are shown on the site: Nagata Lock III, Hercules Cutter, Shining Triangle, and the John Woo. The cool thing about hte last one is that SUWA is doing the John Woo on KENTA. Which means KENTA's in, which makes me very happy. In other news, I got a DS and Mario 64 so far. And a massive fucking cookie. I mean, like, pizza sized.

Hawkius Maximus 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2005 I think I can probably jump in here somewhat. Myself and a friend have been tracking translated news, and speculation based off the screens seen thus far. Confirmed: - New body type "Giant" for Andre, Baba and, others - Face editing - Cage matches - Hugely expanded rosters - More moves - A new attack type: Diagonal Attack. For things like the John Woo, Shining Triangle, etc. - New entrances - Match Maker mode - Two Block style Round Robins(FINALLY) Speculation based on pictures and what little news available: - Roster's broken down into GROUPS. On the View Japan(NJPW) roster listing, in the background you can faintly see "CDU" or something similar which would be CTU. This leads the thought into thinking each fed will be broken down into groups. - True elimination tag matches - Five on Five matches (Not sure where this one came from. Take as will.) - Match Maker mode is either Final Fire Pro(GBA)'s Management of Ring mode where you take control of a federation for several years (Think EWR or TEW here) OR it's Match Maker from KOC2(PS2) where you have to meet certain goals while running shows with the things the game gives. - WAY more match options, so many that the option listings in the match setup looks doubled in size. - Rumors of a couple more death matches in the game. There is bound to be some that I'm forgetting...but thats the main points off the top of my head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2005 This is probably a stupid question, but what system is this supposed to be for? I can't find anything about it there. I'd assume PS2, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawkius Maximus 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2005 PS2 sadly...and yeah, no port to the States. I don't even OWN a PS2, and I'm considering picking one up for this game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2005 Yeah...that sucks for me too. PS2 is the one system (other than Gamecube) that I haven't really bothered with since the SNES...I mean, I've had N64, PS, Saturn, Dreamcast, Xbox, etc...don't know if I want to go out and get a PS2 just for this, but it sounds tempting. Does anyone know if American guys will be in it (I mean current guys...not counting legends and guys in Japan)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawkius Maximus 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2005 I doubt any WWE wrestlers will be in the game. They moved away from that with Z, but in their place added indy guys who have wrestled in Japan like Jarrett, Low Ki and others. I'd say that Samoa Joe might make it. Spanky is a shoo-in due to Z1 and HUSTLE appearances. Steve Corino is probably a lock. I'd just not go into it expecting Steve Austin's or Goldbergs. You likely wouldn't find them.

Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2005 Well, they haven't ported any of the last dozen or so Fire Pro titles (GBA games aside), so I wouldn't hold my breath for this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MillenniumMan831 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2005 How have the two Fire Pro games on GBA sold? Granted, they're pretty much the same game. A 3rd one to the states someday certainly would make me a happy dude. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
