Hylton Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 So I'm playing through the 2k Showcase mode and it's pretty cool. But then I started thinking about some of the other superstars on the roster, like Sheik, Warrior, Slaughter, ect. I wonder why some of them were there, ya know? So here's my theory: originally, there were gonna be two showcases: Austin and Hogan. The marketing would have been between the two of them and there paths. But then the whole "n-word, brother" thing happened and they had to scrap the Hogan stuff. I donno, maybe someone else thought of this. I didn't search, I'll be honest. I'm sorry.

ANTI- Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 2K's doing what we asked for all these years...to let models carry over onto the next game, instead of disappearing forever just because there's no specific reason for them to be in, y'know? I love that all these people are in. It adds variety....it's more people to play in....the more, the better. And it adds another world of vastness in terms of including guys from every WWF/WWE era you can think of. There were rumblings of a Sting vs. Hollywood Hogan (or maybe WCW vs. nWo) Showcase, but nobody knows for sure. All we know is Hogan screwed that whole deal up. If not, all the 2K15 Hogan models would've been in this game plus an extra Hollywood attire or 2. It's a shame....2K15 had the best modern Hogan model. Oh well.

Hylton Posted October 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 I never thought of that. To be fair, I skipped 2k15 so a lot of these guys are new to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECWDanSelby Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 I was pretty sure I heard it was originally going to be Austin and Hogan showcases, which would make a great deal of sense if you think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dean Ambroski Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 I remember there being some kind of issue on 2K15 with people who bought the Season Pass not quite getting what they bargained for and having to pay more than what was advertised for the DLC. Guys like Slaughter, Andre, Rude, Luger, Bam Bam etc. were all part of said DLC so maybe their inclusion this year is some kind of sweetner for what went wrong last year.

TheEAB Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 2k15 modern Hogan was the best! But thanks to Mr. Bollea, no Hogan for us this year! PS: WWE should make a difference between Bollea the man and Hulk the character and give us the model in 2k16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything he does happens under the Hulk Hogan name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarGreymon77 Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Seems to me a lot of Hogan stuff was planned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niffan Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 It is also kinda interesting that they decided to make another version of Slaughter instead of copy/pasting him from '15. It could be a sign that a Hogan showcase was in the works before the scandal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWF WrestleFest Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 To anyone who already has the game, are Hogan's taunts and entrance in the game or where they all removed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niffan Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Entrance is gone and so are the taunts. The feather boas and a regular running leg drop is still in though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
