So much for taken a year off ehh?

No handhelds?

OwnageDC6503637d ago

I wish they would concentrate on current gen consoles only...

KonsoruMasuta3637d ago

They're trying to sell as many copies as they can. The current gen install base is too small.

Mikethejew3637d ago

i'll wait till I hear great things from a wrestling game, "no mercy" was the pinnacle in my opinion and the only other game that came close was on a the gamecube. I hate the arcade like wrestling games that seem to be the norm.

Moe-Gunz3636d ago

Here Comes the Pain and SvR 2006 says hello.

cogniveritas3636d ago

Yeah, I remember the "No Mercy" glory days but they are long gone. Even the most recent title 2K14 lets you tweak the settings for finishers, damage, stamina..etc, until it feels as much like as simulator as you want it to be. And the creation modes have long blown away the n64 days.

XisThatKid3636d ago

I know I'm a minority but I didn't like the 64 games honestly they were slow and the character models were funny looking. I see why everyone else liked them though, they just weren't for me and I detested having characters I spent hours creating deleted for no good reason.

" I hate the arcade like wrestling games that seem to be the norm."

Obviously you haven't been playing wrestling games in a while. IF ANYTHING they're more sim now then ever. Almost to a fault.

Mikethejew3636d ago

last one I played was the one with cm punk on the cover 2013, I think. I had it after hitting a finisher like randy ortons and the guy gets up before I do.

Are Wrestling Games Getting Worse?

Some of you may know that the latest instalment in the WWE gaming franchise 2K20 was released late last year to generally poor reviews. Some of this was based on graphical issues, but mostly it was due to the many glitches and bugs found – many of which are hilarious to witness.

Fire Pro needs more love. The last PS4 title gets regular playtime from me.

I hear that there are financial troubles at the studio, but I'm hopeful for a Switch port one of these days.

The Wood1570d ago

Anyone remember Giant Gram Wrestling on the Dreamcast .....

Rambokind1570d ago

Ah hell yes! That was loads of fun.

Acecalibur1570d ago

Fire Pro just gets better. Buy it.

micdagoat191570d ago

I have Fire Pro for PS4 and PC but it seems more of like a Sim creator rather than people actually playing out matches. I still dont like anything as much as the N64 games

Golden Era of wrestling games in the Golden Era of wrestling. I've been contemplating going back and getting a N64 and getting those classic's
WWF Wrestlemania 2000
WWF No Mercy
WCW vs. nWo Revenge

micdagoat191566d ago

Yeah its the only wrestling games I still play consistently for fun.

TheTony3161570d ago

Yes. The last great wrestling game was svr 2006.

addictedtochaos1570d ago

Yes, the WWE ones at least. The last good one was 2K14 and the last great one was Here Comes the Pain.

Looking back to 2014 and WWE 2K15

James writes - "The good faith of wrestling fans is diminishing rapidly and five years after the mediocrity found in WWE 2K15, it doesn’t seem like 2K have learnt anything. The time for change is now."

Piss on these games, I have more hope of AEW putting out a quality produced game. This product will be better after Vince McMahon is dead, even if his dufus son-in-law takes over.

AK911650d ago

That game was trash when it released but in comparison to 2020 it’s a godsend.
