If all goes as planned, I’ll be picking up my copy of WWE 13 from my friend at THQ tomorrow. I’m really excited to play this game. For a while, I was really worried about the series. I mean, how do you top the award-winning writing in Smackdown vs. Raw 2010 and 2011?!? One of the few ways to top those epic tales is to take actual storylines — with actual WWE television footage! — from the “Attude Era” and use them in an interactive way. They also got some guy named Paul Heyman to help out with the storylines. In addition to being one of the sharpest and most innovative thinkers in the pro-wrestling business, he’s almost as good a writer as those guys from SmackDown vs Raw 2010 and 2011! Almost.
How about you? What’s on your weekend playlist?
Final Fantasy 7, Happy Wars and Minecraft.

I’m sold and it’s free!!!
YES!!! I need more people to play. I’ve been slowly converting some of my friends.
You should have mentioned “free” earlier. I saw the trailer and downloaded the game. Now all I have to do is find the time to play.

Batman AC and i’ll see if i can rent AC3 to see if it’s worth picking up later.
WWE ’13 as well.
I’m anxious for AJ and Ryback DLC.
Wait AJ isn’t in this game!! That’s BS!
It can be argued that they didn’t know she would become this popular when the game was being developed. It can also be argued that it was a wisely greedy move.
I’m going with the latter, aholes!
Her and Ryback are supposed to be free DLC (I think). Either way, I’ve seen pics of her playing with herself (I wish I didn’t mean it in the videogame context) so I know she’s DLC for sure.
They announced AJ and Damien Sandow DLC at Summer Slam. I haven’t been paying attention to the DLC news since then.

Now… I’m looking forward to Claudio as well.
Thanks for that! You also gave me a column idea for Monday.
Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation, which is turning out to be a really nice game. Swinging through the trees is even more fun than running the rooftops in Rome!
That, and I got to play Rayman Legends on Wii U, as well as Play Station All-Stars on PS Vita, both of which look promising. And I can officially say that I have no problem with the Wii U controller – I thought it’d be bulky and annoying, but it’s not half bad.
