Resident ranter and WWE fan, Shawn Long explores a few reasons why WWE '13 won't be on his wish list.
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.
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
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
Yes, the WWE ones at least. The last good one was 2K14 and the last great one was Here Comes the Pain.
There's been so many great wrestling games throughout the years. But this list of the 10 best wrestling games of all time will crown one true champion.
Bidness Gaming: WWE wrestling games went through several transitions, but in the end we saw it all end in a count-out!
couldn't agree more, think it was No Mercy which i liked the best, although I remember the WCW NWO game being very good also.
In its current carnation it will never top the N64 games
IMO the story aspects became the worst. the universe mode isn't as good as the GM mode(imo)
commentary is really bad
enemy ai isn't good neither is hit detection
instead of putting effort into single player story all we have gotten are past glory moments. i mean we are basically watching replays of old matches
i am surprised we didn't get a true wwe vs wcw game
the one wwe game few years ago with wcw story line was good(i had fun with story mode atleast)
here comes the pain
shut your mouth
day of reckoning
no mercy
are some of the best wwe wrestling games
all these years and no real ragdoll physics to make selling moves look different either. 2k15 and 16 have like halfassed ragdoll.
It's funny how you mentioned modern games problem being story related.
But then mentioned
here comes the pain
shut your mouth
day of reckoning
no mercy
HCTP, SYM and No Mercy was cherished by its gameplay.
Its seems alot of people these days are more interested in stories in videogames then the actual game. Gameplay should be number 1.
wwe 2k14 was the last great release gameplay wise. wwe 2k16 still has the annoying chain grappling.
nevin1
they could have a bad story but still a original story. these past wwe games have moments from past like 30 years of wrestlemania and attitude era
i rather just get original stories and that's just my personal opinion
A few good points made in this article, and it seems that some elements of WWE 13 may be a let down for hardcore wrestling fans.
It's the same old tired gameplay every year with minor upgrades
I thought for sure it would be different for THQ, especially after last year and the backlash that seemed to resonate with them.
People dont seem to realize that last years game was like a rough draft of this year's release. Since last year there was a new team working on the game hence the name WWE 12 not Raw vs smackdown 2012.
I highly disagree with this article and though there are a few good point's this game will be Great! Not something that TruthRant consider's a failure.(SO FALSE)
WWE games have always been the same thing wrestling there is nothing that makes it any different a few more matches and a few more wrestler's. The roster issue is not THQ's fault they try to keep up with WWE but by the time the roster was being created CM Punk was still wearing the white shirt with black collar.
The AE mode is mostly to give the younger generation a history lesson on what happened back then which I think is better then the last few games RTWM.
THQ has done a pretty good job trying to get all the fans features that have been asked for in the game, and that might have set them back a bit. I mean if you have millions of people asking for crap, you won't be able to please everybody, the only people that are upset are the ones that didn't get what they wanted in the game.
I wanted Create a Title guess what? Not in, but I'm not complaining this game will still be pretty sick with all the features it does have. It's kinda like Ive said this before. Anyways if your a hardcore wrestling fan this game is gonna be perfect.
The DLC releasing at later times is not a bad thing because when they release it you can make a story to blend in the game and add more excitement. Ryback has returned for example. To try to put this game down is basically saying "I'm mad the game isn't made the way I wanted it to be so I'm ^ not gonna get it Boohoo"
I love whenever people complain about the roster and than blame THQ. It shows they don't know who truly has the final say. All of the DLC was approved AFTER the Roster Deadline. Why? Because the WWE took it's good ol' time and approved people late.
