Wrestling Video Games (WWE '13)

[Hunter]

Just wondering if anyone on here plays WWE 13 on the Xbox? I wouldn't mind having a nice game against another.

On another separate note, has everyone else been suffering from terrible connections when attempting to access Community Creations? It's making the process of playing the game actually suffer. Get back to me if possible please.

Thanks.

This was needed. Despite some positive changes in recent years, the fundamental workings of WWE video games hasn't changed for over a decade.

Happy with that. If Take 2 can make it anywhere near as good as the NBA 2k games, we should have some good, solid games on our hands.

Got so fed up of THQ.

 

[muscularmatt]

Yeah, 2K is a great company, and I can't wait to see what they make of a wrasslin game.

 

[Haribo]

Yuke's will still be making the game probably so there'll be little change.

 

[muscularmatt]

Well fuck you then Haribo.

The series, which will continue to be developed by Yukes in Japan...

I stopped there. Same old shit.

 

[Hunter]

I stopped there. Same old shit.

Different strokes for different folks.

I've personally enjoyed the gameplay of WWE '12 and WWE '13 very much so. I'm still playing WWE '13 regularly, even to the point of simply having one-on-one matches, attempting to recreate matches with great story telling, ebb and flow and a sense of realism.

If the gameplay engine remains similar, then chances are, I'll be quite happy. But given 2K's supreme track record, even with minimal input potentially, I can see the franchise growing ever stronger, with more content and more refined flow to the matches themselves.

Of all the possible companies that could have a hand in helping the WWE video-game franchise, 2K would be at the top of my list, so this is great news in my view.

 

[Bish]

Savage and Warrior in the next game. Shame Yukes and the THQ castoffs are still about. Hopefully 2k go solo next year and we might have something.

Probably would be good and 2K has done this with NBA games before, but once again, a WWE game has to dig into the past to come up with something good.

 

[Bish]

Looking like a cool roster, and that game mode sounds good. If the AI is still shit it will count for nothing though. I just wish it was a fully 2k game.

 

[Haribo]

"45 classic WrestleMania matches"

I can't even begin to speculate what some of the more outlandish choices might be. :lol:

I'm the same. It's time for some tangible change to how it plays, and not just another layer of gloss over the cracks. Hopefully in a couple of years, they'll drop all the douchebags that have making the recent ones make it a proper 2K game. Best developer about at the minute.

"45 classic WrestleMania matches"

I can't even begin to speculate what some of the more outlandish choices might be. :lol:

It'll probably just be 41 matches from Manias 15-20, Taker/Michaels, and another two from before 1999. Probably something ghastly predictable like Hogan/Andre and HBK/Razor.

HHH/HBK/Benoit or we riot.

LOL at not having Savage vs Warrior - one of the best match in history.

No Austin vs Shawn :myword:
