Ever wondered what you'd look like on a video game box? Ponder no more; THQ has you covered with a custom box art creator to coincide with the release of wrassle-'em-up WWE '13.
The "Be on the Cover" application on the WWE Games Facebook page lets you take a photo from your existing Facebook gallery or a webcam and save it as your own special game cover. Once you've finished tinkering with the editing options you can print it out and slot it straight into the slipcase — you'll be a WWE Superstar in no time.
WWE '13 will give you the chance to go boot-to-boot with Stone Cold Steve Austin, Mankind and all the stars of the Attitude era, as well as the world's sweatiest soap opera's modern day favourites. You'll be able to stomp your way through the Monday Night Wars and also carve out new storylines of your own in WWE Universe. Fancy new presentation is also promised to bring the WWE television experience into the game, with new camera angles, audio systems and events such as ring collapses.
WWE '13 is grappling its way onto Wii on 30th October in North America, while Europe gets an extra couple of days to practice its submission holds before the 2nd November release.

Haha! That would be awesome, if only I had a small amount of interest in the WWE games...
Getting it on PS3!
I have never been into the WWE games, so I could care less about it..
Is WWE '13 getting a review on NintendoLife?
If I did get it,I'd just buy if for the Women fighters,and that's the only thing I like about WWE.
@JusticeColde Hopefully.
@A-Hungry-Banker That has become the worst part of the WWE lately. The female wrestling is something they should really have less of it's not worth anything anymore and it's boring to boot.They should honestly stop with that nonsense already.
