Old ways, I think. I dug a little deeper into the text-based one, and....well, it made my head hurt something awful.
This one, I got back on my birthday. I'm playing a 'Cube again, and Day of Reckoning 2 is hands-down my favourite WWE game ever.
It'll be a little while before any substantial updates happen. I need to finish the game's story mode to unlock the stat-cap for created characters, then I need to actually MAKE the characters. DOR2's limited to 16 per save, but I'm planning to get a spare Memory Card sometime soon, so I'll effectively have 32 (31, I guess, if you count Hazama) slots to play with. The creation suite isn't as detailed as the later PS3 WWE games, but you can still do some pretty awesome stuff with it.
Stay tuned, I guess. I'll update again when I have something worth posting. Need to figure out the length limit for videos on my phone's camera, first.
