Game Focus writes: "There is no doubt that professional wrestling reached it's heyday in the late 90's/early 2000s. You couldn't swing a steel folding chair without hitting someone wearing an Austin 3:16 t-shirt. You could also argue (and I would be one of them) that wrestling games peaked in 2000 with WWF No Mercy for the Nintendo 64. THQ seemed hit their stride with their Smackdown series, especially around Smackdown: Here Comes The Pain for the Playstation 2. However, the last few incarnations have been treading water by not offering any revolutionary. Does Smackdown vs Raw 2009 (SVR09) reinvigorate the series? Put your tights on and let's find out."
Pros
+ Great graphics
+ Road to Wrestlemania mode has good storylines
+ TV style presentation
+ Deep Create A Superstar Mode
+ Highlight Reel is a nice new addition
Cons
- Poor targeting system
- New matches aren't that interesting
- Create a finisher mode is limited
- Commentary robotic and stilted
- Game offers nothing substantially new
One week from the next gen release of WWE 2K15, let's take a look at how moves and animations have evolved (?) through the WWE Games series... After comparing the character models with last week's video, we now look at the animation of several finishers / signature moves.
Many of the old animations look better than the new ones especially the Sweet Chin Music and Goldberg's spear. The 2K14 Clothesline from Hell looks awesome though.
Comparing the face textures of WWE Games character models through the years... featuring John Cena, Booker T, JBL, Undertaker, Hulk Hogan, Mr. McMahon and many more... evolution?
I hope that was the last generation version of 2k15 if it is I'm canceling my pre order.
WWE have produced a lot of video games in their time, with varying degrees of quality. Which are the best though? Jason Delacey tries to pick five Stone Cold Stunners.
Here comes the pain.... all time fav WWE...
once my cousins and i played elimination chamber whole night .. one match whole night.. good times
peace
