Anyone play these games? I'm sort of a wrestling fan, but not really into any sort of current wrestling.
For me I've enjoyed a few of the showcases, but I think they've gone in the right direction this year with the universe mode and the promos. I mean majority of wrestling fans now want to book rather than play

I did and didn't like it 1 bit!
@hoban95 is the resident men in tights aficionado
Didn't like it at all
And I agree, Universe mode is by far the best mode
I feel like a kid again and get so creativite with my shows
Don't think I've ever played a single showcase mode lol
Universe mode is the only mode I play
So much fun recreating classic matches man!
Yeah that's what made me check out 2k17
The games aren't as good as the used to be, for some reason it seems like a chore to do a move.
Yeah it seems better the old story modes but i much prefer creating my own shows and storylines!
I loved the attitude era and wrstlemania showcases. More because of the actual videos taking me back.
I love the concept of the universe mode (I liked gm mode) but it just doesn't play well. Hopefully they've made it better to create shows. If you have heard of Total extrem wrestling that's what i want it to be like, a visual version of that.
The one thing i will say what annoyed me was the lack of legends on 2k17. 2K16 was perfect as you had a legit attitude era roster. HHH, Austin, The Rock, Masked Kane, ABA Undertaker, Bret Hart, Nation of domination, Hart Foundation, HBK, Big show with hair, 3 faces of foley, DX, Ken Shamrock, Rikishi etc
Although it is nice to actually have almost the full main roster now.
I haven't seen the roster.
I don't mind if they don't have those versions as long as the can be created properly. But the creation suite is too slow and not as good. I'd like the PC version but it means buying a new PC.
I started watching around 93 and stopped in 01 but sort of kept up to date with what was going off still over the years.
What games have you'd previously? It's got me thinking I've had
- a game boy game (only had about 5 wrestlers)
- War zone
- WWF attitude
- Smackdown know your role
- Smackdown just bring it
- Smackdown here comes the pain
- Svr either 06/07/08 can't remember which
- Wwe12
- Wwe13
- 2k14
I can safely say the first 3 smackdowns were the most fun to play
I like the creation suites. 2K16 was MILES better than 2k15 tho. 2k15 was easily one of the most limited WWE games since 07.
Don't think you'll ever be buying another wwe game then.
WTF thought with the split it was likely
Universe mode should be similar to gm mode where you are up against other companies.
But can't see that happening.
Mate Universe mode is miles better
You have more control
One of those games where you get out as much as you put in and want to imo, if that even makes sense?
Obviously you gotta be a wrestling fan first and foremost but for me the main reason the game is so fun is because you can be extremely creative with what you do. A lot of the stuff is imagination at the end of the day ahaha.
As a straight up fighting game it's not that great.
What did you guys not like about it? And what mode did you play?
But they lost alot of the Legends which is all I care about.
I don't want to have to play a ton to unlock players
me n my mate have said.. once one gets above 80 on metacritic.. then we'd buy it new
Yeah i normally buy the DLC which comes with being able to unlock everything.
Seems like a game of pressing RT at the right time.
Total borefest
That's it, if you want a fighting game, go ufc or boxing, but the creators of WWE games don't realise people are now more interested in the booking side of things and creating their own shows
