I know there are a lot of match threads, but this thread is for an idea I though of. What if there was a match type in the game, or even several, that are unlocked by doing something riddiculously difficult (500 in slobberknocker, 10 years of undefeated season mode etc), and are matches which may have never been even done in the WWF/E, but are just down right awesome matches. Perhaps a Dog Collar match, a Tai Pai death match, a scaffold match, a barbed wire match; preferably something hardcore like those, or even something stolen from an old promotion, like a triple cage match, or just a match type which aren't done frequently like a stretcher match.

I think having unlockable match types, obscure and interesting one's like that would be a great feature, as I don't think, apart from legends, there has ever really been things worth unlocking, sure I unlock them for completions sake, but I never use those few alternate attires, or loading screens. I don't want those unlockables removed, I would just like some more unlockables, which would require a lot of effort, but be worth every minute it took getting them. Now, before you direct me to an unlockables thread, the main purpose of this thread is about having these unusual match types in the game (as unlockables), not so much as having match types as unlockables; if you catch my drift.

Definitely like the idea. It would be nice if there were some things that were actually really good to unlock[matches are a prime example], yet would be a real big challenge to do so. The hardest thing to unlock in SvR 07 was the ECW arena, and that was done by beating the MITB challenge. I didn't find that much of challenge at all, just a big annoyance due to some of the annoying glitches in that match type.

I think this would be an awesome addition to the game and it would also add a huge amount of time to the lifespan of the game. The chances of them adding this in are slim though, as WWE want the game to be as realistic as possible and I personally don't recall a Tai Pai Death match .

I like the idea, and that would be really good for business, not only will people like it with its awesome matches they will play it for a long time and more people would buy it, thus more profit to THQ.

You should add that on the wishlist.

What about inferno matches?

I agree as well. I would love to see something like this happen. Then we could get the Inferno match, ambulance or the Last Ride matches.

Yeah, this is exactly what I mean. But I don't just want new matches, I want these to be hidden, just hinted at, so we all have to try a heap of different things to find and unlock them. Unlocking them in season would be alright, but ideally I'd like it more hidden, like perhaps unlocking it by winning a handicap match, but we don't know who we have to play as, so we try a heap of combinations to get it, but the reward is good enough to justify the effort.

I like this idea, as I'd love to have something that I have to work a lot to get. I don't mind it being hidden, as someone will probably post it here on release day, but I don't want to have to basically tear the disc inside out in order to find it.

Cool idea. Like the way you get a more valuable unlockable rather then the reptitive arenas.

i think that they should include the inferno match as a storyline involving kane and mvp.

Amazing idea. The game lacks in toughness for getting unlockables. Challenge mode isn't even hard. They need something that is really hard and takes a long time, but in the end it is totally worth it. Amazing idea
