Not sure how many people are actually messing with the story editor, but I hope to see more sequels and spinoffs (if you post yours, put Giant Bomb in the keywords so we can find 'em easily).

I have just uploaded my follow-up story to the highly regarded TIME ROCK. Fan fiction, if you will. It ain't on the level of "Ghost Problems," but few things are.

TIME ROCK II: REQUIEM

Picks up on Raw right after The Rock was killed by a car driven by Triple H...or was it?This unofficial sequel Includes Rocks everywhere, Thug Detective John Cena, and Magic Vader Cops!

Oh...and it's the 360 version, sorry if you're Wii/PS3. And I wouldn't complain if you rated it so I can get that achivement.

UPDATE: You can view both TIME ROCK & TIME ROCK II: REQUIEM on the archive of the 11/8/12 TNT. Time Rock leads the show off, with Time Rock II around the 37 minute mark.

UPDATE 2: I've listed a few more Giant Bomb community created ones below for your viewing pleasure. Keep 'em coming.

Here are some overviews for those unable to actually view them. I highly recommend viewing them if possible, as you don't get the wacky camera angles or sound effects just reading this nonsense.

THE STORYLINE...

Time Rock - by Jeff Gerstmann & Vinny Caravella

UNOFFICIAL SEQUELS AND SPINOFFS...

Time Rock II: Requiem - by user KaneRobot (Xbox 360 - search keyword Giant Bomb)

What if there are TWO of the Worlds Strongest Man Mark Henry? Will they avenge their former Nation of Domination leader?

I really want to see this stuff. Maybe if some of these are good @Jeff could do a livestream or a QL follow up showing them for us people that wont be buying the game =)

WHAT??? There can't be! "World's STRONGEST Man" implies that there is only ONE!! This could be the end!!

@KaneRobot: "BAWH GAWD, MARK HENRY THE WORLDS STRONGEST MAN JUST SUPERPLEXED MARK HENRY THE WORLDS STRONGEST MAN. THEY FUSE INTO ONE BEING!"

THIS!!

I'm seriously considering checking out the story editor this weekend, and trying to come up with a continuation of my own. Time Rock could end up being the greatest thing to ever come out of a WWE Video Game.

+1 would be so good, But @Vinnie reaction to the stuff is what really makes it

I have to get this game just so I can make a Time Rock/Ghost Problems crossover. With the Rock played by Mankind. And the car played by Goldust. And the ghosts played by no less than seven Rikishis.

Someone in the comments of the QL said they should do all their GOTY list video stuff using story mode editor. This idea pleases me, since it's going to be hard to top last year's stuff if they go FMV-style again.

That is possibly the best idea ever.

And as far as Time Rock goes, once the two Triple Hs finally corner the two Rocks for the briefcase, the two Rocks should try using the briefcase at the same time only to end up back in the attitude era. Then, they show up as one horribly disfigured caw, like the fly, and then slowly revert back to a normal looking humanoid blob and reveal... that's how Mike Tyson was born. (Or Godfather is a good substitute if the creator didn't pre-order)

COLLUSION!

Added a synopsis of Time Rock II to the original post. Don't leave me hanging here guys, I know plenty of you can do better. Will add them to the OP if any are posted.

What if The Rock and Triple H's hair wrestle for TNA now.

I like your style, but is the hair in a briefcase?

The '98 Rock recovers from being hit by the car, and goes back in time and steals Hunter Hearst Helmsley's hair. A hairless Triple H of the present has to battle through time to get his hair back, but present day The Rock does everything he can to stop him. It culminates in a tag team match between old Rock, new Rock, Triple H and Hunter Hearst Helmsley. Multiple endings of course.

...And then Macho Man Randy Savage reveals he's alive and well. He snaps into a slim Jim and then wrestles Rock and Triple H's hair in a 2 on 1 TLC match.

This does need to be recorded somehow. All of the spin-offs, sequels, pre-quels and remakes.

Shit I'd watch that.

Just popped in WWE 12 for the story editor and gave up when I couldn't find an option for a standard wrestler entrance. It's too bad, cause a lot of the content seems identical to 13 and if I can't find a good entrance I'm pretty bummed out about the whole process.

I love how you put spoiler warning on the story.

I love this dark middle chapter of the TIME ROCK story. Somebody needs to make a video of this soon.

I'm really thinking of putting something together in Ren'Py in December.

Oh my god that Time Rock II: Requiem story is amazing, well done @KaneRobot. I haven't played a wrestling game probably since the early PS2 games but I really want to get this now.

just put it all on youtube and link to it in the forums, get a mod to put it in the side thing on the main page for awesome things. i dont have a 360 but i dont want to miss out on this.

This is the best wrestling storyline in years.

Does WWE 13' have an upload to youtube feature?

As a PS3 WWE '13 user, I demand these videos be put on youtube. DEMAND.

@Morbid_Coffee: The Rock's death is the dark middle chapter.

My video capture abilities are unfortunately pretty limited at the moment. If someone wants to start capturing these (including the first one) I'll gladly put them in the first post.

Just thought of something - at least in theory, my Youtube channel should be reasonably visible to people who are fans of ridiculous wrestling stuff - the Iron Sheik video I uploaded has well over a million views (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9K-wEUCCvE0). It may be the perfect home for a Time Rock Anthology. Or we could just do a standalone Time Rock Anthology channel - either way.

So, if someone is willing and has the time and ability to play & record these, we can set something up.

Also, Jeff mentioned both the Time Rock AND Ghost Problems sequels on Twitter. I may do one more episode at some point in the coming week or two, but I'd like to not get BURNED OUT ON TIME ROCK IDEAS and hope other people can contribute. Let's keep it rollin'.

It was mostly due to length (that is, if other people start doing these as well), but yeah, I enjoy the thought that it is far too important to leave out there for people to accidentally read.

Awesome - the TNT archive from tonight's show will have both Time Rock & Time Rock II. For those without a 360 & those who missed TNT, it's on the twitch.tv replay stream right now, Time Rock at about the 2 minute mark, Time Rock II at the 37 minute mark. Higher quality premium replay should hopefully be up soon for paid members.

I have begun work on TIME ROCK GAIDEN, which will be the last one for me. So far so good, but if it winds up being something where I'm "trying too hard" I'll probably scrap it and try something else. Still want to see other people's stuff though.

My spinoff THAT'S RACIST is up on PS3. Hope you enjoy.

i do play this game soon .........

I love how the latest WWE iterations are completely conscious of the contrivances in their storylines and implemented them in a way for people to make their own ridiculous storylines. This is probably the culmination of this twisted nostalgia of wrestling enabled by these kinds of games, I cannot see any more fun to be had from running over Jim RossRyan Davis '98-99 The Rock with a Lincoln Towncar and spending a whole season to figure out it was actually The Future Rock.

That being said, I'm looking forward to the inevitable continuation of these stories and potentially the WWE video game franchise's next iteration, even though it probably won't be this "good" again.

I tried my hand at a sequel to Time Rock. Started it shortly after the Quick Look went up, but I only finished it recently. I don't think it has a hope in hell of topping the original or this TR2. But I had fun making it and that's all that matters to me.

Time Rock II : Revelation is showing exclusively on the Playstation Network!

Man I wish I could check those PS3 ones out - I'll add both of the ones mentioned above to the original post - if you'd like me to throw in a synopsis, PM me and I'll add it.

They really need a Youtube upload option or something in these games.

I just finished Time Rock Gaiden, going to review it and let it sit for a couple of hours, if I don't change my mind on anything I'll upload it tonight.

Well, the game detects "president" as an offensive word, so that kind of throws a wrench into my storyline surrounding President Vader. Having it show up as "Presiden t Vader" every time is kind of annoying, but definitely better than the alternative of "******** Vader."

REGARDLESS - "Time Rock Gaiden" is now up for download in the Community Creations section of WWE '13 for the 360. I have added a synopsis to the first post of this thread for those unable to view it. This really is a "Gaiden," as The Rock doesn't appear anywhere this time around.

This'll be my final Time Rock fanfic. I HAVE SAID ALL I HAVE TO SAY ON THE SUBJECT OF TIME ROCK. May give something else a shot though. Hopefully other people keep it going.

That stuff makes me want to watch wrestling again.

This stuff is great and all, but there should really be YouTube videos of this stuff, and in this thread. Reading about these stories doesn't give the full appeal, and I don't have the game to watch them there.

I have no interest in actually playing the wrestling portions of the game, but I'm still tempted to buy it just so I can get in on some story editing fun!

YES YES YES YES

god, that'd be fuckin amazing. they gotta voice the dialogue though, otherwise it could get old real fast. maybe add their own music. i'm thinking looping car run downs with "party hard" making my ears bleed pure joy.

Ouch. Zero downloads for Time Rock Gaiden. I'm trying to come up with a movie sequel anology, but I can't remember a movie where zero people went to see it. Santa With Muscles, maybe.

THE DREAM IS OVER.

Oh well. Here's to next year's game having an improved story editor. And maybe better gameplay, but really...I can ignore the gameplay. Give us more car-based shenanigans.

That's Racist synopsis: CM Punk gets into a bit of literal Latino heat after some off collar comments are interpreted as hate speech. After his Royal Rumble turns into Birmingham '63, Punk hears a shocking revelation from a man named Time Rock that could change the course of history, both wrestling and human.

Added to OP. Thanks!

Yeah, if someone with the game can start YouTubing these videos, this thread could get a lot more activity going on. I missed Ghost Problems More during the TNT and have been anxious to see it ever since.

@KaneRobot: So, I'm around this site a lot, but I've got no idea what all this "Time Rock" business is all about... Care to fill me in?

@TooWalrus: It's basically them messing around with a storyline creator from the most recent WWE release inspired by the WWE '13 Quick Look:

http://www.giantbomb.com/quick-look-wwe13/17-6774/

@EquitasInvictus: Ha... I just watched them look through the roster for what seemed like forever then shut it off. I'll check it out.
