"For the past few years the traditional Story mode and/or Season mode have been put aside in favour of the “Road To Wrestlemania Mode” and recently “The Atittude Era mode” in WWE video games and with that most of the freedom, options and the old free roam style of the Smackdown games were traded in for voice overs and more cut scenes in a much more linear mode. With that said the WWE 2K14 story mode could benefit from the style of Just Bring it, Shut Your Mouth or even Here comes the pain with options where you can chose which path you want to go in, what championships you’d like to chase after and such."

The best wrestling games range from all-time classics on the N64 all the way up to some surprising new hitters you should check out.
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).
Starman was awesome. I also remember a tan dude with bright yellow hair. Good times!
Virtual Pro Wrestling 1 & 2 > Most games on that list.
Also, WCW/NWO Revenge should be #2 minimum.
WWE 2k13 thanks to the WWE Attitude Mode. Followed by WWE Attitude and ECW Hardcore Evolution.
also: ECW! ECW! ECW!
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.
What the f*** at Punks face..It looks nothing like him.
Ah never mind thats a CAW with WWE 13 gameplay :/..
you know I almost forgot THQ was no more. So 2K Sports picked this up eh? Did they also get the UFC series? Very interested to see how they will handle wrestling.
Why are people speculating? THQ was already working on WWE '14 and '15 with the launch of '13. '15 is set for next gen consoles. 2K probably won't drop that work to start fresh on a new product, meaning the product you're going to get will be from THQ, not 2K. Look for a full 2K WWE product with WWE '16.
Will Eric Cartman be a playable character ?
so do i get wwe13 or wait till next gen i mean im not even sure its going to have those attitude era characters or the whole thing at least
