ADG WWE 13 Daily – WWE 2K14:A Possible Reality

ADG talks about the latest rumor of WWE games being possible made by 2K because of transactions between Take-Two and THQ on their bankruptcy auctions.

WeskerChildReborned4106d ago

If it's true, i think it would be good, to me, it feels as if the WWE games lack true innovation with each sequel, now i'm excited to see if 2K can impress me with a WWE game.

showtimefolks4106d ago (Edited 4106d ago )

i think 2K will do wonders for the series, i think they see from past/present games what works and what doesn't and unlike THQ's team 2k actually listens t its fans feedback

take-two is gonna make a lot of money of wwe games but they are also gonna push the series towards a better future

only recently did THQ actually got its act together before that a lot of their games were movie tie in games or kids games to rip off families.

what they got they deserved no doubt, i believe some of their Ip's are in better hands now. I hope Deep Silver publisher makes awesome metro/saints row games in future.

I don't wish loss of job at anyone so i feel sorry for the devs at THQA but from what i understand most of them have been bought or have offers from well respected publishers/developers

Frozensilence4100d ago

Reason why the old wwe games work so well because it was arcade style & then they decided to try & change it & failed & kept going with it & it kept getting worse, but definatly true with every sequel they released it got worse

Funky_Homosapien4106d ago (Edited 4106d ago )

Im not gonna lie i prayed for THQ's downfall. I hope 2k can breathe life back into the series and bring back the nostalgia of games like NO MERCY or even here comes the pain.

Psychonaut4106d ago

Why would you pray for a lot of people to loose their jobs, their income to support their loved ones? I understand not liking a game company because of their choices, but that is dark.

Heisenburger4106d ago

That is not very kind. :/

Quite insensitive, in fact.

optimus4106d ago

You people need to lighten up, nobody is wishing anything bad on any individuals. It's a company, and if he/she doesn't like it he can say so without regret. I'm sure microsoft and sony prayed for sega to get out of the hardware business at one point or another...

Rest assured thq employees will find work elsewhere, for some, this could be a blessing in disguise. They might get better positions, pay, or benefits with another company...as for the wwe license i do hope 2k games picks it up. I have no doubt they'll make a better game.

CoTton_MoUtH4105d ago

I wish 2k would take Fight Night fuck this WWE shit

sovietsoldier4105d ago

ea will get it and milk it dry and leave a bad taste in you mouth.

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 Wood1558d ago

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

Rambokind1558d 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

fad6323009d 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.

WeAreLegion3009d ago

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

Ruggadagod3009d ago

You can obviously tell they got lazy.

showtimefolks3009d ago (Edited 3009d 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

vanity293009d ago

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

nevin13009d 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.

roxette923009d ago

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

showtimefolks3008d 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
