[edit] platforms

I'm confused. The info box thing says that the game will also be released on the PS2, but the info is not in the article itself. Will it be released on PS2? And if not, should it be taken out of the info box?Yugioh73036 16:31, 17 May 2006 (UTC)Yugioh73036

The only platforms I've heard it be for are PS3, X360, and the Wii. I don't think it'll be on PS2 or Xbox.12.37.71.144 00:03, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Midway stated that the game will be on most CURRENT and all NEXT Gen consoles, in their press conference about it, so it will probably be on the PS2 and Xbox. Tommyspud 02:06, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] month

what month will this tna game be released in 07

I don't believe they have an exact month announced yet but keep an eye out for one and post it.

Yugioh73036 16:29, 23 May 2006 (UTC)Yugioh73036

I just read on tnawrestling.com that they (Midway) are brainstorming with Samoa Joe and A.J. Styles for gameplay ideas. Styles and Jeff Jarrett are doing motion capture 4 it currently.Yugioh73036 20:41, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Yugioh73036

[edit] Roster and Story mode

Its obvious that the big stars like Christian Cage and Abyss will be there but who else do you think will be there. I'm thinking Chris Sabin will be on there. And as for story mode, what do you think it will be about.- User:Packratt200

I don't know. That explains why it ain't comin' out 'till '07.lolYugioh73036 02:27, 15 June 2006 (UTC)Yugioh73036
It would be a blessing if they had Sonjay Dutt and Jay Lethal since their mid card wrestlers.- User:Packratt200

What about the X Cup in Story mode? That would be pretty cool.Yugioh73036 19:16, 15 June 2006 (UTC)Yugioh73036

That sounds cool. All the X division guys in a video game is really cool. I think the World X Cup story mode would be good also.- User:Packratt200

Where are the sources for all these people?Yugioh73036 06:00, 11 August 2006 (UTC)Yugioh73036

The X-cup storyline would be a problem, since Midway would have to license the other companies. AAA(Mexico), 1PW(U.K.), A/NJPW(Japan)... Do I even have to go on... Seriously, the X-Cup probably won't be completely in the game.(Team USA vs Team Canada is probably the X cup...) Tommyspud 02:10, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Only if they used the logos, otherwise Midway would just have to deal with the wrestlers themselves(since most indy wrestlers own their own gimmicks). TJ Spyke 07:05, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

In story mode it will just say that all the countries have competed, and now it is down to America and Canada. --User:Kris Classic

[edit] Animation

How will they animate moves like the Canadian Destroyer or the Hindu Press? The Spiral Tap and B.M.E. would be difficult too.Yugioh73036 19:48, 15 June 2006 (UTC)Yugioh73036

Well that is probably another reason why the game won't be released until 2007. But here may be a way they are making move animation. A Canadian Destroyer is basically to me a sunset flip pile driver. So that is a real easy way to break tough moves down to simple steps. A Hindu Press to me is a Whisper in the Wind mixed with a 450 Splash. The Spiral tap is just a Somersault Whisper in the wind. And as for the B.M.E. it's not hard for any springboard move to be animated.- User:Packratt200
I never looked at it that way.Yugioh73036 04:01, 22 June 2006 (UTC)Yugioh73036
If they use that method they could be done by Christmas.- User:Packratt200

[edit] TNA in UK???

Does anyone know if TNA iMPACT! will be released in the UK if so please contact me on my discussion page. I have always been a fan of TNA and pro wrestling in general so I think it would be a shame if it wasn't released over here. --Racer38 19:43, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

If you get iMPACT! the TV show, I don't see why you shouldn't get the game. I'm from the US, so I don't know. Personally, I hope you get it.--Yugioh73036 00:14, 5 July 2006 (UTC)Yugioh73036

[edit] Match Types

Do you think the game will have all the creative matches like the KOTM match, or the Xscape match?-Packratt200

Maybe. I sure hope so.--Yugioh73036 03:08, 4 July 2006 (UTC)Yugioh730360
Me too.-Packratt200
They're signature matches of TNA so I would expect them to be included. Normy132 03:58, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] No Mercy N64

It says in the AJ Styles article that he is not a fan of the Smackdown games and he prefers No Mercy for the N64, which in some parts i agree with. Do u think this game it will be more like No Mercy or Smackdown. I hope No Mercy because I've always wanted to see what the PlayStation could do with a game like that. --Don.-.J 16:28, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

  • hopefully it'll have the realism of no mercy\

[edit] Jeff Hardy

I know he is on the box art but he is no longer in TNA so isn't it kinda hard for him to be in the game?Yugioh73036 22:17, 14 August 2006 (UTC)Yugioh73036

The pic in the article isn't the box art. That is just a sample screenshot. Rollinman 22:09, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Roster

  • Is that roster completely confirmed? It seems like someone just posted the current TNA roster on there (along with some others). Wrestling games are usually not that up to date when it comes to rosters, and I somehow don't think the whole list is confirmed. RobJ1981 20:51, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
I'm in the same boat as you. Most of those wrestlers look like they've just been tossed in for the sake of putting them in. Normy132 04:49, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Most likely, the cutoff date for roster will be Bound for Glory, so if the superstars appear then, then they will PROBABLY be on the roster. This means no Jeff Hardy, no Shannon Moore, and so on... Tommyspud 02:12, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Nobody has been confirmed yet. The cut off date is rumored to be Bound for Glory 2006. With it being still a month off who knows. I dont think even Hardy or Monty Brown will be in
    • I removed the roster because no such announcement has been made. There's no mention of it on Midway's website, IGN, or GameSpot. It was also added by an anon user which doesn't help the credibility. TJ Spyke 06:52, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

If Jeff Jarrett and A.J. Styles are soon starting motion capture (which is confirmed), isn't that official for them to be in the game?Freebird Jackson 01:05, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Not at all. Generally the OVW wrestlers do the motion capture for the WWE games and they're never in the game. Normy132 03:00, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

With a model of Styles reportedly being shown, and him being an integral part of the roster, and with scans confirmed for Sting as well, aren't they confirmed on the roster?Freebird Jackson 01:01, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Source

Is there a source to the roster and other information?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 206.188.34.200 (talkcontribs).

[edit] Get rid of the "confirmed roster" part

Somebody screwed with the confirmed roster list and added a whole bunch of people who aren't even with TNA anymore, including the late Chris Candido. I haven't heard any of these people being on the game and personally the only ones that I've heard are on the game right now are A.J. Styles, Jeff Hardy, "The Alpha Male" Monty Brown, Samoa Joe, and Jeff Jarrett.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.167.135.183 (talkcontribs).
