COZZA SAID SO Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Posted this all on the 2K Forums. Thanks for the info Paul. I'm sure everyone, including myself appreciates it. Quote
COZZA SAID SO Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Cheers Cozza Welcome Paul. One question, how'd you get the trailer before 2K showed it or is it sent to you? Quote
Tamer™ Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 I seriously don't understand why everyone's getting so angry about him being on the cover, all that matters is the actual product rather than who they slap onto it. Quote
M42Productions Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 I seriously don't understand why everyone's getting so angry about him being on the cover, all that matters is the actual product rather than who they slap onto it. I just chalk it up to a MASSIVE case of Cena Fatigue. Quote
Yin Yang Bought In Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 I seriously don't understand why everyone's getting so angry about him being on the cover, all that matters is the actual product rather than who they slap onto it. They're angry that they have to see his ugly mug every time they start the game Quote

No, I personally would rather see any of those three. Cena's been on too much crap. He was on the cover of SvR 2006, 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011. Bryan was only on the alt cover for 14. Brock only on HCTP. Wyatt none. People like Bray more than Cena. I feel 2k and wwe should let the fans vote for who they want on the cover. Quote

I feel 2k and wwe should let the fans vote for who they want on the cover.He needed to be on the cover on his own at least once, and this is being done for publicity reasons, if a guy like Wyatt's on it that'll only appeal towards the older fans. You've gotta always look at it from a sales aspect because that's what 2K did last year and this year, and we're likely to get an flip over cover anyway so it doesn't even matter. Quote
best in the world Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Honestly, I don't know why people get so mad about Cena being the cover superstar on 2K15. When you see Lebron James on the front of NBA 2K games, it's because he is synonomous with the NBA. It's the same deal with Cena, when you think WWE he is the franchise. It's kind of ironic too, 2K15 and 15 time World Champion. It is nice to finally see something on the game, even if it is just the cover and vague details..... Quote
huh Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Cena sells merchandise. We're gonna buy the game regardless of who's on the cover, he's on it so that casual gamers and WWE fans might be interested in the game too. Also good advertising on his part in that trailer. Quote
Zark Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 To the people who are complaining about Cena being on the cover : Do you play the cover? No. Quit bitching. Quote
the King Lives Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 To the people who are complaining about Cena being on the cover : Do you play the cover? No. Quit bitching. Exactly it's so damn annoying.. what would they rather have.. the rock on the cover again.. or jack swagger? I can't figure out which is worse Quote

It is nice to finally see something on the game, even if it is just the cover and vague details..... it's pretty much the same as if wcw had a game coming out would i want sting on the cover or would i want tank abbott on the cover? The answer would be sting since he was the franchise, same for ECW i would want Tommy Dreamer over say Spike Dudley LOL TNA? Kurt Angle over MVP Quote

No Is Cena even developing the game? NO so shut up about it... i think you're letting your hatred over him winning the title at MITB go way too far.. oh wait i better stop or the next thing you do is call me a Cena suckup.. (like i care) Quote

the King Lives Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 i'm sorry i just can't stand people complaining over something as trivial as a cove of a game.. Quote
best in the world Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 @jeffsdomain: I think you hit the nail on the head with all of your prior posts. It is insignificant who is on the cover. From an advertising standpoint, John Cena sells! That's all there is to it. Try putting creepy ass Bray Wyatt on there and see how many copies that sells! It seems as though some would rather complain about little details than focus on at least knowing what the cover will look like. To me, it is simple: if you don't like Cena rip the cover off but I assure you, the game will still play the same..... Quote
Yin Yang Bought In Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 I'm still gonna draw a penis in Cena's hand, nothing can stop it Quote

For 1, the make a wish foundation is one of my favorite non-profit organizations, and cena has granted more wishes than anyone has in recent history. Plus, Cena orton triple h and big show ae the only 3 people from the ruthless aggression era that are still on the roster. never was a huge orton triple h fan, big show got tired after he left wcw imo so my favorite now is cena lol #THECOVERISHERE! lol Quote
