WWE 13 - One of the Worst Games in Recent Memory - ShogunGamer.com

Corey Rollins Writes: The fact this game was released is astounding. Any positive points from WWE Attitude Mode or player creation are fully eclipsed by an absurd number of bugs and poor game design.

THQ made great wrestling games in the N64 era. Its a shame how things have changed.

NYC_Gamer4158d ago

I wish THQ would just release the N64 WWF/WCW games on digital services.

josh501874158d ago

this guy obviously has not played this game this has been the best one since here comes the pain this guy is nuts

showtimefolks4158d ago

Now disagree with you but will gave you a agree. It's a good game but something just doesn't feel right, here comes the pain, shut your mouth, day of reckoning 1-2, no mercy, wrestlemania 2000,

So all those games IMO are better than wwe13. My main concern is this and it's not just wwe but a lot of yearly titles, why is it hat most of the yearly titles were better last gen?

Madden or nfl games in general
Wwe
MLB the show is great but MVP baseball was also epic

I actually enjoyed the story in wwe12

ShadowKingx4158d ago

exactly josh, any old school wwf fan will play this game and love it for the attitude era mode and still give it a 6 or 7.

Dj C44157d ago (Edited 4157d ago )

If you took time to read the review, you'd probably see the entire section dedicated to praising the attempt at the AE mode.

Too bad the game is a buggy broken mess. I was hoping it would be good. It's not. Just because it's got some Attitude branding on it, doesn't make the game good. You're only kidding yourself if you think it is.

ShadowKingx4158d ago

who the hell is shogun gamer anyway? oh yeah only on N4g you here of shogun gamer.

all i can say this game is way better than a 3, the attitude era mode alone is worth at least a 6 or 7.

Dj C44157d ago

We're a website that won't rate a game 6/10 just on the childhood nostalgia of "bigdaddy4247".

If you want Attitude Era nostalgia, go watch reruns on YouTube. They're much better.

willdefrangesco4158d ago

Wow, you couldn't be more wrong.

Dj C44157d ago

Thanks for the feedback, would love to hear specifics on why you think it should be a higher score. Thought the provided support / links / videos made a pretty solid case. Lots of unacceptable bugs. Feels like a early beta at best, which is why I gave THQ time to make statements about the problems. It's a big game, bound to be issues. Their response has been horrible.

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 Wood1557d ago

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

Rambokind1557d ago

Ah hell yes! That was loads of fun.

Acecalibur1558d ago

Fire Pro just gets better. Buy it.

micdagoat191558d 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

b163o11557d ago (Edited 1557d 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

micdagoat191554d ago

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

TheTony3161558d ago

Yes. The last great wrestling game was svr 2006.

addictedtochaos1558d ago

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

Thq and AKI stopped making the games. The N64 games were the best

fad6323008d ago

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

3-4-53008d ago

WWE 12 was the last good wrestling game.

WeAreLegion3008d ago

I'll tell you where they went right. WWE All-Stars freakin' rules.

Ruggadagod3008d ago

You can obviously tell they got lazy.

showtimefolks3008d ago (Edited 3008d ago )

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

vanity293008d ago

all these years and no real ragdoll physics to make selling moves look different either. 2k15 and 16 have like halfassed ragdoll.

nevin13008d ago

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.

roxette923008d ago

wwe 2k14 was the last great release gameplay wise. wwe 2k16 still has the annoying chain grappling.

showtimefolks3007d ago

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
