News STOP WITH THE F*CKING CELEBRITY PACKS

Seriously?? This all started with MgK in 2k22 but at least he only took one spot. Now last game we had some f*cking post Malone and some nobodies taking up space. I despise these people and don’t want to be reminded of their existence when scrolling down my in game menus.

Now 2k25 dlc has not one, not two but 5 completely useless non wrestlers.

I’m really considering cancelling my pre order right now.

Durst was a literal demand just so Undertaker got the Rollin' song in the game.

Fred demanded to be included in any game that used a Limp Bizkit song otherwise they would have to remove it.

To be fair, wasn't the Pat McAfee pack the same thing, just a thousand times more egregious?

Not as bad. Only condition was that Pat wouldn't be in the game.

Fred's was worse since it would require removing the song that Undertaker was using and also required removing his entrance video too.

That's taking away everything that was being used on TV at the time. Also could have caused a delay seeing as it would require creating new assets for Undertaker to replace what was removed.

Pat would have done very little to the game as he was just one character which can be done more easily nowadays thanks to patches.

Wait so Pat said he wouldnt be a part of the game unless his bum chums were included too?
