I bought an LE. If they pull him from the code I would be really pissed off.
What a clusterfuck. I hope this doesn't delay the code, this game desperately needs it.

The LE allows you to select all of the legends.
Hulk Hogan
Shawn Michaels
Steve Austin
The Undertaker
These have been in the code since the LEs shipped.
Hell, Hulk Hogan is on pretty much all of the marketing material related to the LE. I would think that they couldn't just remove him but who knows.
I loved Hulk Hogan when I was little. That's why I bought the LE, essentially.
What really concerns me here is the code. Does that mean that the only way I'm going to get a code update for a game that's pretty much broken as-is will be to accept the fact that it will remove the reason I bought the game? Not only that, it was also very obviously a huge part of the marketing of the game. That's bullshit.
This is NOT Sterns fault. At all. I just want to know how they're going to take care of the supporters that bought a game that clearly isn't very popular to begin with.
I am assuming that WWE has approval rights over code updates.
Quoted from PinB:I just got this reply back from Stern's Facebook (after asking about future LE code updates in light of recent events):
"The situation has been brought to our attention. WWE's decision with Hulk is independent of us, and will not affect the sales, distribution or future code development of the machine. We appreciate your interest in the product."
Thanks for sharing, I really appreciate it.
Quoted from Darscot:Really bad move for Stern not to drop him as well, I guess some people won't care, but I don't respect any company knows someone is a racist dirtbag yet still uses them for profit.
I hear you. I don't totally agree, but our two posts sum up the damned if you do, damned if you don't situation that Stern are in on this one.
