FKNMSRA Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Source Whatculture.com It is now all but official that Sting will be WWE 2K15's pre-order bonus and marketed ‘legend’ selling point. The Figure Four Newsletter confirms this news, noting that Sting will follow in the role previously occupied by Brock Lesnar, Mike Tyson and most recently The Ultimate Warrior. The ‘WWE Sting promo‘ video being cast for last week was indeed the WWE 2K15 video game commercials. This will feature numerous actors dressed as Sting in some sort of orchestra, acting on the connotations of his enigmatic personality. 2K15's Sting deal and the promo video are separate from the WWE. This is a relationship between Steve Borden and 2K games, with the video game company employing an agency to shoot the Sting promo. However, like the Ultimate Warrior in 2014, Sting’s involvement with 2K is expected to prelude a deal with the WWE itself. His arrangement with 2K is something that suits WWE, it introduces his character back into the WWE universe, it prepares him for coming back to television at some point. The WWE currently have their own deal on the table to Sting, with the WCW icon expected to sign at some point before WrestleMania 31. This 2K legend marketing proved a very creative and commercial success for the WWE in relation to the Ultimate Warrior, who originally did a deal with 2K14 before signing with WWE and becoming a big star (and merchandise seller) over the Hall of Fame and WrestleMania 30 weekend. Playing as Sting is sure to be a big thrill for gamers and the WWE 2K15 release is scheduled for late October on Xbox and Playstation consoles. Quote
mrblacksheep Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Brock Lesnar was never a preorder bonus. 1 Quote
#HEELGlory Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Dammit. More DLC crap But it'll be free. Uhh, still not good enough. Quote
The 4th Doctor Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 If this is true this will be the second best pre-order besides ultimate Warrior. DLC ain't going anywhere folks so no use in complaining about it Quote
the King Lives Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 @Heelglory get over yourself.. if you don't want him then don't download him.. it's simple as that SMH @4thDoctor yeah if it's true this has me excited. Hope they don't pull a hogan though and instead of giving sting a real scorpion deathdrop they just give him the damn Inverted DDT from last year's dlc move pack lol (what i meant by pulling a hogan is how they didn't give hogan a real theatrical legdrop instead they just gave him the running legdrop from wwe13. I thought that was so lazy of them lol) Quote
The 4th Doctor Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 @Heelglory get over yourself.. if you don't want him then don't download him.. it's simple as that SMH just ignore him all he does is complain 24/7 about everything Quote
the King Lives Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 geeze stop complaining about the dlc geeze @4thdoctor yeah .. i don't see why complain about something like that. Especially if the game does shape up to be great, just preorder. It's not like you can't cancel it LOL the story is on wrestlezone too.. and wrestlezon is a website i do trust in. I've been using them for news since 1999 LOL Quote
SassySlothh Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 didn't pre-order last year, and i'm not pre-ordering this year. Quote
Tamer™ Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 They'll give us a free code again, I didn't pre-order and I got the Warrior code free anyway. Quote
the King Lives Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 @Sassysloth why am i not surprised.. seems to me that if a diva isn't involved you could care less.. @RatedRLiontamer i call that a gamble. I tried that with wwe12 and didn't get the code so i'll never do that again lol Quote
Tamer™ Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 I got the free code in 12 and 2K14, didn't care about 13 tbh. Quote
SassySlothh Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 @jeffsdomain. No, stop assuming. I honestly don't care about 3/4 of the divas. And thats not the reason, i'm not a fan of Sting or Warrior. Quote
The 4th Doctor Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 the story is on wrestlezone too.. and wrestlezon is a website i do trust in. I've been using them for news since 1999 LOL our buds at the 2k forums are denying all these sting reports saying they are false. Quote
the King Lives Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 @4thdoctor.. of course.. and Zeokage the moderating idiot is leading that bandwagon.. i'm suspended but i'm still viewing those threads.. Ugh.. it's just laughable.. they could throw a sting legit pic from the game on there and they would still swear it was fake.. #RavenTurnsHeel is the worst.. i can't stand him. but yeah like i said i've been using wrestlezone's news since 1999 when i had a wrestling website going so i trust them. Those crones on the 2k website are just complete idiots @Sassysloth.. good for you .. want a cookie for not having tastes? Quote
SassySlothh Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 @Sassysloth.. good for you .. want a cookie for not having tastes? Shut up. Just because i'm not a fan doesn't mean i don't have good tastes. I reckognise that they're both good wrestlers but i've never taken an interest in them. 1 Quote
the King Lives Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 oh looks like i struck a nerve.. okay.. carry on.. you go enjoy your adam rose and pg wwe world.. i'll just wait till 2k15 comes out and enjoy my wcw/wwf 90s roster 1 Quote
