THQ explains WWE '12's 'Bigger. Badder. Better' tagline

A portion of a WWE.com interview with THQ’s Bryan Williams…

WWE.COM: The tagline for WWE ’12 is “Bigger. Badder. Better.” How does the game live up to those claims?

WILLIAMS: Well, our games have always been big, going back to the SmackDown vs. Raw series. I don’t know of any game that comes out yearly and offers the breadth of content that our games do, from create modes to all of the match types that we offer. And you can’t forget online play! WWE ’12 is almost like three games in one.

“Badder”? I will say that WWE ’12 provides a much more refined gameplay experience. The bouts are much more intense and impactful. With our new animation system, the maneuvers and how the characters navigate the ring are just much more fluid and more of a reflection of what you see on WWE programming.

As far as “Better” goes, from the original SmackDown series to SmackDown vs. Raw to WWE ‘12, we get better with each iteration, and this year is no exception. With WWE ’12, we’re making bigger strides than we have in the past, in terms of one year’s game to the next. I really do think that this is going to be the best WWE game we’ve ever put out. I just can’t wait for the game to be released and for the WWE Universe to get their hands on it.
