.I think that whole "lockup" thing is only going to happen when two players attempt to grapple one another at the same time. Kind of like a more advance version of the one that we have on 2k14. Which if it is, I'm glad. Having to do that thing at the beginning of every match would get really tiresome, really quickly. What if I just want to do a squash?

Anyone know why AKI no longer makes wrestling games? I would love an updated version of their wrestling engine. Def Jam Fight For NY was awesome and I just want them to make another awesome game instead of another smackdown vs raw/wwe year game.

There's no longer an AKI, that's why. Though I've wondered why no one has ever bought the engine and used it as a basis for a wrestling game.

I don't know if this counts but there was a Von Erich family board game. Not a single person, but a single family of wrestlers.

I remember the Apter mags advertising a Gordon Solie wrestling board game in the late 80's. It cam with a record (or what, I don't know).

I hope 2K15 randomizes jobbers with goofy CAW attire in NXT/career mode like the mystery dudes you had to defeat in Smackdown 2.

I wish they did this in Universe Mode, which the option to save the CAW after the match. I think it could keep a freshness to the game if you would randomly face people you had no clue about.

I was just more interested in if there were any additional legends in the game, and if any updates had been made to the Universe mode.

I thought about doing that.

Had to download a few to fill out the roster, and while in 2k14 you can finally have a Women's title be the major belt (2k13 you couldn't), you can still only have three titles (Major, Tag, Diva). The minor title spot can only be filled with a men's title.

I've been playing No Mercy again and it has probably my favorite CAW mode. I don't have to spend a whole day applying paint layers to get am accurate likeness. Just pick a similar face and then you got a varied selection of clothes. It feels just right.

And because the in-game wrestlers were made the same way, the CAW looks and feels like one of them.

Well, it was a nice idea at the time but animations don't really flow together, damage is generally minimal and it's open to abuse online. I'd be fine with them removing it for a year and bringing it back in an improved fashion. I'll miss the hell out of the crazy aerial/top rope moves and my Samoan Unprettier finisher though....

The removal of story designer, custom music and all the preset entrances is the baffling bit...

Yeah, the preset entrances is weird too. I'm assuming they at least kept Create an Entrance?

SO apparently, on 2k15 (at least for PS3/XBox360), you can only download TEN wrestlers from Community Creations. If you want download more, you have to EARN it by becoming ranked in online matches.

I love how huge the ladders are. It's like every ladder is that gigantic joke ladder Big Show used. Hopefully the gigantic steel chair is in there somewhere, too.

Well, it's good to see the wrestler models on the PS4 look like poo poo too. At least not everything's changed. AJ looks likes Punk's been beating her, Summer looks like her lips have been shown shut. And Naomi looks like a caricature. A racist caricature.

I'm totally fine with everything being text if it means you get tons of different cutscenes and branching paths. Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the case.

But yeah, for my wrestling games I would much rather have more stuff than voiced scenes. Hell even give me stuff like Smackdown 2 where you don't even get text dialogue, let me fill in the blanks in my head haha.

Me too; unfortunately, it seems that the most vocal part of the audience demand VOs, which is why we went from the awesome season mode in HCTP to the lame ones since HCTP. I guess they hate reading or something?

You know, I don't play video games that much. I can never seem to fin the time. Not much of a gamer, in fact. The only games I do play are the Lego and WWE games. And while I've had WWE2K14 for a year now, I've only played it sparingly over the year. So while this is going to make me sound stupid, while playing WWE2K14 the last couple of days, I discovered in Universe mode that you can actually go in a edit the rankings for the championships. Sick of Tons of Funk and the Prime Time Players trading the WCW Tag belts back and forth? gently caress 'em, and move Funk to the bottom of the rankings.

The funny thing about the old version is, I never cared for his Maina 6 attires, so I went in a played around with the threads and gave him some of his more classic colors (white, blue, the good ol' RED, WHITE, and BLUE!) and it does make him look a lot better. Though it's odd; while you can edit the colors of his face paint, you can't edit the paint on his chest.

From watching streams (I don't have a PS4) it seems the funniest part of MyCareer is that while you are an unknown NXT prospect who hasn't yet had your first match against a real person much less a title opportunity, you can have Roman Reigns or Stephanie McMahon out there managing you.

That's one thing that's always bothered me about these games, in that you can't have a dedicated manager for you character. You have to go in and select the manager option. I understand that you wouldn't be able to have a manager in some match types (anything which maxes out the characters on screen), but I wish you could create a stable, or even just a pairing, with a manager character.

This is all I want out of a career mode. I want randomness. I understand you can't have infinite story lines, so by changing up the competitors kept it fresh. But idiots like those on IGN complained about that stuff and wanted character specific stories, so that meant every time you played through a career mode, you fought the exact same people over and over.

Give me the Punk/Cena pipe bomb storyline, but change it every time.

I got 2K15 on PS3 for Christmas and while I was having fun playing it, I ran into a huge bug. During the Cena/Punk Showcase, you play as Triple H vs. Punk at N.O.C., and when I complete all the objectives and win the match, nothing happens. It gets stuck on the ring with Triple H standing there and Punk lying down and I can't do anything except try to quit the game and have my PS3 restart itself.
