WWE 12 Roster: Massive Amount of Legends Makes Game a Must-Have for Older Fans

The latest installment in the WWE video game franchise, WWE ’12 has a long list of reasons why the game is a must-buy. However, no reason is highlighted more than the depth of Legends you can play as in the game. 

On first purchase of the game you’ll see such Legends in the game as Brock Lesnar, Vader, Demolition (Ax and Smash), The Legion of Doom (Animal and Hawk), Stone Cold Steve Austin, Edge and The Rock, to name a few. 

Along with those superstars that you have at your disposal when you first get the game, you can download an even deeper crop of Legends. If you are able to get your hands on one of the Down Loadable Character packages you’ll see Batista, Mick Foley, Trish Stratus and the Macho Man Randy Savage, just to name a few. 

You can finally, revisit classic matches every day on your Xbox 360 or Playstation 3. If you want to see The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin revisit their epic series of matches, WWE ’12 has you covered. If you wanted to see what a contest between two heavy hitters in Vader and Sheamus would look like, WWE ’12 has you covered. 

Or if you just want to see someone like Brock Lesnar just destroy a jobber like Heath Slater for five minutes to relieve some stress from the day, you can do so over and over again with WWE’s latest video game. 

With the fanbase of the WWE growing younger, some of them may not know who some of these Legends are. It’s why having a long line of Legends in the game this year satisfies the hardcore wrestling fans desire for nostalgia. While at the same time educating the young fanbase as to who these guys were that built the sport to where it is today.

Now, WWE fans young and old will get the chance to link the past to the present with WWE ’12. The game may not have hit all of the great wrestlers in the past, but they do a great job in grouping in as many as possible. 

The game play is great, the story lines will suck you into hours of game play but the Legends roster will keep you and your friends coming back to this game.
