Y2Jant Video Game Preview: WWE '13

We are very close to playing a game some of us, well, alright, most of us are very excited to play, WWE '13. I'm not here to post any previews of the game and such, we already have a lot of information, we just want the damn game already. What I want to talk about is what version of the game I will get it on and what I'm going to do as my very first match of the game.

Some might know that I own all the current gen systems: The Xbox 360 (third one actually, first one Red Ringed on me and I gave away the second one), Playstation 3 and the white looking box Nintendo made a long time ago. I love each system but in this case, I will be getting WWE '13 on the PS3, just so I can play online since I haven't renewed my gold membership.

That's out of the way, I always play Exhibition first and have a singles match just before diving into anything else. This allows me to get used to the controls and see the entrances of the superstars. But my question to everyone is; what will be your first match from any mode actually? Are you going to dive right into the story of the game? Or just have a match just for the hell of it? I would actually start with a typical singles match against whoever I want to face. This year, from looking at the roster, I would start with Ken Shamrock. I don't know, I guess I really like his theme and feel that I could use him in Universe Mode in some way. Maybe out him up against Eddie Guerrero or relive his feud with The Rock.

There is just so many options to play the game that I know I will be buried with it until next year. I can say for a fact that I can't wait to see how they do the Attitude Era story. I've been watching WWE since when I saw Kurt Angle beat Rock to win the WWE Championship at No Mercy and at that time, I've missed the early years of the Attitude Era so I would like to see what happened. Trust me, I still need to do some history lessons on everything before 2000 to get up to speed. But this would be very interesting to see what was happening at the time with everyone at the time.

One last thing I do want to say is I love the WWE games. No matter what, at some point or another, I've played every game for the last couple of years and I can't really complain. As some of my friends have said many times before, no matter what you put in the game, people will b**** about something about the game. I knew that they can't have everything perfect (ala Kelly Kelly) but I'm not going to complain. Why you think we have a community to help with creating whatever we want so we can bring that in from the game. I just love this game and I can't wait to play it sometime in the next week after it is released.

My View on the Nintendo Wii U

Well ladies and gentlemen, today was a big day for Nintendo. They finally opened up the curtains and told us what the heck we can expect the Nintendo Wii U. And I must say, I am surprised at what I heard and decided to dive into it just a bit to decide if it's really worth the money.

The Nintendo Wii U will be arriving November 18, mere days before Black Friday so I can see why Nintendo would release a new system close to the one day where all hell breaks loose. You can be able to purchase two types of bundles at launch or via pre order. For just $299.99, you can get your basic package, which comes with the system itself and a nice HDMI cable. For just $350.00, you get more memory and will include a copy of Nintendo Land. So for fifty bucks more, you get more memory, a game and a black Wii U. So, what's my opinion on this?

I say that I'm happy with the price and once again Nintendo does something good. However, I'm on the fence because of all the games that are coming out between launch and the future. I won't say there's a lot of blockbuster games but at the same time, I want more coming from Nintendo. Sure, there's Black Ops 2 (which I hate the Call of Duty series period), ZombiU, which in my mind will be a very good game to play, New Super Mario Bros. U, which will be a hot seller from the start and then, we got the rest of shovelware.

I'm not going to lie, I want a 3DS XL right now to get set for some good 3DS games coming out and with the Wii U, I think Christmas might be the right time to get it as more games are released. But on the plus side, you can play some Wii games on the Wii U so that's a plus actually. As the system is the first in the next gen line, I can only wonder what we can see from Sony and Microsoft. This is a step in the right direction and Nintendo has to take the ball and run with it. It's not everyday we get to see a new system and good launch titles and so far, it's looking good and I can see the system selling very well in the first week. I don't know if there will be anything special waiting for Black Friday for the new system but knowing Black Friday, anything is possible.

Here are some box art for some of the upcoming games:

Wrestlemania 28 Predictions

Ladies and gentlemen, it's been a long time but I have returned to blog about one of the biggest wrestling events in the world that will go down this Sunday: Wrestlemania 28. Just like last year, I will give my predictions on who will win in each match, as well as what match might be good, bad and a show stealer. So, let's get down to the bare bones and work our way towards a great Wrestlemania!!!

I guess I'm more confused as to why this match is happening in the first place. Still, I have to think that Kelly and Maria will pick up the win here at least. Either that or we will see something happen with Beth and Eve.

Here's a pretty good match between the Big Red Monster and The Viper. I see RKO picking up the win on this one to silence the monster.

Rhodes has held the title for so many months now and is a pretty good champion actually. However, Big Show is proving that it is his time to actually win a good match on the grand stage and I see him picking up the win and the title.

Here's a match that I'm going to pay attention to. Team Raw vs. Team Smackdown and this one can go towards either team. As much as I want to see Teddy win in the long run, I have a hunch that John and his team will pick up the win and have a more, exciting time on both Smackdown and Raw.

This is it, The End of an Era, the Hell in the Cell match between Triple H and Undertaker. Well, let's see what happens as everyone knows that the Deadman will indeed go 20 and 0 at Wrestlemania.

Both men have gone back and forth in this feud as Sheamus builds some steam heading into Mania. Daniel has the chance to really prove that he is the best in the business but when it comes down to the end, Sheamus might just pick up the big win.

The Best in the World vs. The Best in the World. Jericho and Punk are two great wrestlers and both deserve the spotlight. This year, I believe that CM Punk will pick up the win and proving to the world why he is the Best in the World.

Probably one of the biggest matches in Wrestlemania history, The Rock will take on John Cena. Rocky has all that goes for him and it's in his hometown crowd but Cena will be the one to pick up the big win.
