I'm actually curious sine 2k is behind it. Now if we can get nfl 2k football back.

BLAKHOODe3897d ago

2K took over midway though development. I doubt they had much influence over the final product since there wasn't much time left. Next year's game, WWE 2K15 is the one to look forward to. It'll be 100% 2K's game and will probably be the first next-gen WWE game.

Foxgod3896d ago

Well you can tell the influence from the fact that we get all superstars we want in once.
Instead of getting a few of them every year, while removing the previous ones.

THQ had really washed out this series with their limited perspective.

uncharted563896d ago

They really really need to build a new engine and transfer resources from current one to it. A new engine will provide gameplay change, better graphics and more. I mean they have been using an decade old engine for christ's sake.

TheUndertaker853896d ago

'15 was also already being worked on by THQ for next gen systems. Won't see a full 2K product till '16 unless they decide to ditch the work already done on '15.

This was part of THQs downfall if you ask me. They even admitted to working on '14 and '15 shortly after the launch of '13.

In my opinion they need to take the series back to the exclusive days. Things were much better when Smackdown was for Playstation and RAW was for Xbox where both games took advantage of the hardware they were on.

Wow im suprised people care about wwe nowadays, I used be a hardcore fan now its just the pg era with john cena who cant even wrestle... he beat the rock at mania that was the most embarrassing moment in wwe history.

eyes scrolled right down to S.

Stone Cold Steve Austin is all I will ever need to see from any wrestling game ever.

MrBeatdown3896d ago

The only thing this year's roaster needs is JR's BBQ sauce.

GreenRanger3896d ago

How did this submission get up to 540 degrees with only 9 comments?

Father Murder X3896d ago

more hype to cover up a crappy game. This game is still going to suck like it it last year.

They need to get rid of the annually releases. Wrestling doesn't lend itself well to annual releases.

BLAKHOODe3896d ago

I agree. It's basically just a roster and stage update with the same visuals and a few new moves. No real changes. I think they should release the game every 2 years with up to 15 months of spread out DLC that updates the roster and adds new legends.

I was always partial to the arcade wrestling games like Saturday night slam masters, wwf superstars, wrestlefest, wrestlemania, wrestle war and then a NES classic... pro wrestling. By the time the N64 era of wrestling games happened, I wasnt into wrestling much anymore (tv & games).

jjb1981818d ago

It was all about the Starman Somersault or the Tiger Claw!

Fist4achin818d ago

Starman was awesome. I also remember a tan dude with bright yellow hair. Good times!

gurp819d ago

Smackdown 1+2 on PSX
A lot of hours went into those two games

jbrock11819d ago (Edited 819d ago )

Virtual Pro Wrestling 1 & 2 > Most games on that list.

Also, WCW/NWO Revenge should be #2 minimum.

Petebloodyonion819d ago

King of coliseum
most of the all japan pro wrestling
Toukon Retsuden 3

Terry_B819d ago

WWE 2k13 thanks to the WWE Attitude Mode. Followed by WWE Attitude and ECW Hardcore Evolution.

Are Wrestling Games Getting Worse?

Some of you may know that the latest instalment in the WWE gaming franchise 2K20 was released late last year to generally poor reviews. Some of this was based on graphical issues, but mostly it was due to the many glitches and bugs found – many of which are hilarious to witness.

Fire Pro needs more love. The last PS4 title gets regular playtime from me.

I hear that there are financial troubles at the studio, but I'm hopeful for a Switch port one of these days.

The Wood1552d ago

Anyone remember Giant Gram Wrestling on the Dreamcast .....

Rambokind1552d ago

Ah hell yes! That was loads of fun.

Acecalibur1552d ago

Fire Pro just gets better. Buy it.

micdagoat191552d ago

I have Fire Pro for PS4 and PC but it seems more of like a Sim creator rather than people actually playing out matches. I still dont like anything as much as the N64 games

b163o11551d ago (Edited 1551d ago )

Golden Era of wrestling games in the Golden Era of wrestling. I've been contemplating going back and getting a N64 and getting those classic's
WWF Wrestlemania 2000
WWF No Mercy
WCW vs. nWo Revenge

micdagoat191548d ago

Yeah its the only wrestling games I still play consistently for fun.

TheTony3161552d ago

Yes. The last great wrestling game was svr 2006.

addictedtochaos1552d ago

Yes, the WWE ones at least. The last good one was 2K14 and the last great one was Here Comes the Pain.
