That game looks terrible. It really has been a long time since a really good wrestling game came out.

I would totally be down for a Yakuza type game where you play a wrestler. One of the mini games would be the wrestling match and the rest of the game would be dealing with regular life/the politics of wrestling.


Wrestlers real lives are wacky enough that you could do a ton of fun mini games like in the Yakuza series.

I'll never forget being an early 20 something year old and coming across the Mdickie wrestling game and being freaked out and really surprised when one of my wrestlers lost an arm during a match. I'm always willing to pay and give his games a chance.

Except that Jesus one.

I had a friend who's dad stole a Wrestlefest arcade cabinet from an arcade and kept it in their living room. He broke open the coin slot and you could give yourself a million credits by pushing down this little pin that would be hit when a coin slid through the slot. We played that game all the time. I love that you could have like 4 people pin one dude.

It is a fact that there will never be a good WWE game again, it just can't possibly happen without a massive cultural shift in two different industries.

I don't know if I'd go so far as saying 2 industries. The WWE's content really doesn't matter when it comes to a good game because a good developer could do something just with the IP. And I don't think it's the whole game industry. I think it's 2k and sports developers in general. I'd love to see what a company like Capcom, or Sucker Punch or Rockstar or Insomniac could do with it. The fact that sports games have gotten monopolized is the exact reason they became unfun. When I was young I would buy football, basketball and hockey games and I don't even like sports. But it didn't matter because they were fun. Those days are over.

I was thinking about the console game the other day in a "Hmm, who would I play as first?" kinda way - and honestly I couldn't decide. I love how stupidly full of great people this roster is and assuming the main game mechanics are solid I can't wait to try every drat character.

I hope I can go on a championship run as Hangman

Yeah if the AEW game was as bare as WCW Revenge but played as fun as that did I'd be happy. In my perfect world it's closer to HCTP or No Mercy because I loved their branching story paths.

How are we realistically going to get good WWE game again? Seems like 2k might lose the license after 2k20v.2 bombs. So like best case EA picks them up? Tweaks the kinda lovely UFC engine?

This is the worst possible timeline for wrestling games.

All hope really lies in the AEW game. Otherwise your best options are MDICKIE games, modded AKI engine games or the Fire Pro series

I hope everyone who got it is enjoying it. I just can't buy WWE stuff anymore. It's like the one line in the sand I have for evil companies. They'll make all the money in the world despite me but it makes me fee a little better not giving them a cent.

The best part of WWE games is when they would go crazy with storylines. More games should do this. What ifs all over the place. I loved it in the DBZ games when they did what if scenarios like what if Cell absorbed Krillin lol

Wow that is really impressive. Those are the mannerisms and facial expressions down to a T. God I would love for someone to have a modern version of Doink's heel character.

I remember Foley talking about his psychology - he wouldn't do moves to beat his opponent he'd do them to hurt him. So his moveset was centered around pain levels not knock out levels. It's really cool

No no I get it working eventually. But then I still am like eh I've played this game so many times I don't care.

Skyrim too. God that game is so shallow. It's only made worse by how big Elden Ring is while also being miles deep

My favorite stuff from the older games was when they started doing branching storylines depending on if you won or lost. I think No Mercy was the first one to do it. My favorite version was Here Comes the Pain and Shut Your Mouth.
