Incredibly lifelike character models. Completely retooled, much more true-to-life combat and stamina systems. Smooth, realistic animations. 1080p resolution and 60 frames per second. No doubt about it, 2K’s WWE 2K15 feels like a next-gen wrestling game – most of the time. The impressive presentation goes a long way towards making the game feel fresh, but the main issue here is consistency. While WWE 2K15′s eerily accurate face scans and polished, exciting gameplay are welcome improvements, cut features, a pared-down roster, and numerous glitches bring the experience down a bit.
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.

Piss on these games, I have more hope of AEW putting out a quality produced game. This product will be better after Vince McMahon is dead, even if his dufus son-in-law takes over.
With so many wrestling video games to dive in and play, find out which ones Screen Critics believes you'd be best avoiding.
This game is hardly worth 8/10, they might have changed from THQ to EA, but EA obviously have hired the same lazy developers who sit around the office all day and drink coffee an biscuits. They haven't upgraded a darn thing, they actually took away customization options from the game which was the fun part. The game is as slow and glitch as ever, the game mechanics have not been built from the ground up as they said it would, the reversal system is horrible. The season mode is a joke, seriously other than graphics what have they done in a whole year? After all the ps4 is easier to develop for than the ps3 and i'm sure the Xbox One is much the same.

I haven't bought a wrestling game since Raw Vs Smackdown 06. The games really haven't advance all that much it seems. Kinda sad actually.
