However, almost as soon as this stage is over, your wrestler is exhausted, and you’re staggering around the ring struggling to do anything. This is one of the few fun new additions, managed as a paper, scissors, rock game. When you’re fresh, you lock up for some classic chain wrestling, alternating between various headlocks and holds, and vying for control. When I first heard about this system, it sounded really excellent – different levels of fatigue change the way the game is played.
Sadly, this depletes at an incredible speed, making the characters you play as feel more like feeble old men than some of the most accomplished athletes on the planet. Characters have a fatigue bar that controls how quickly they get to their feet, whether or not they’re able to perform moves and how quickly they can move around. The major changes are, obviously, to the gameplay – with the quick, fun and exciting matches of yesteryear replaced with a slow, sluggish and irritating attempt at being more realistic.
But asides from that, graphically, this game is great. Let’s get one thing out of the way first – the game looks, for the most part, incredible.Ĭertain superstars look almost photo-realistic – Goldust and Daniel Bryan, for example, and for the most part the rest of the games graphics hold true at this level.Įvery now and then there’s a let down mainly with superstars that weren’t available for scanning (looking at you, CM Punk). WWE 2k15 marks the series’ first outing on the next gen consoles, and (as they do every year) 2K promised that everything was going to be changed for the better, in new and exciting ways you’ve never seen before.Īnd while there certainly have been a fair amount of changes to a formula that the WWE games have been working off for at least 8 years now, almost none of them are for the better. Which makes it so, so heart breaking for me to have to tell you what a complete and utter failure this one is, on almost every level. I’ve drilled every version of this game into the ground, with a tight knit group of super fan friends, and it’s fair to say there’s nothing I don’t know about these games. When it comes to the WWE gaming franchise, I am the fan. PlayStation PlayStation 3 PlayStation 3 Reviews
