Get The Rock with WWE 12 Preorder
THQ announced today that The Rock is being offered as a preorder incentive for WWE 12. This offer appears to be across all retailers including Gamestop and Amazon (360, PS3). Currently Gamestop is also offering exclusive attire for The Miz but hopefully Amazon comes through with a promotional credit as they have with other upcoming titles which would easily trump that.

First Look at WWE 12 Gameplay

Despite that though veterans of the series may find it all too f...

The latest is a delay in the release of the first DLC due to "technical issues" for the Xbox 360 after the PS3 received it all early last week. It is now expected out no earlier than next week for the 360 and there are no guarantees it will even be out then. As a result the pre-order bonus of "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and Ted DiBiase Jr. will remain unavailable to be c...
