The WWE 2K15 Roster Isn’t the Biggest in the Series, and I’m Actually Fine with That

GeekParty's Blake Steil: "To be honest, I think that we’ve been spoiled on roster size these last few years. WWE ’13 had 106 playable characters while WWE 2K14 boasted a max roster of 104. Comparatively, this years game only has around 63 characters on disc, with more being added later via DLC.

Right off the bat, yeah, 104 is a much bigger number than 63, but let’s unpack those statistics."

It's probably been over a decade since I played a wrestling game, but Sting is still all over it.

For the first time in a decade.

"but maybe 60 hyper-realistic character models was all they could handle for their first go with the new hardware. I don’t know."

I dont think it is the amount that is the problem. The NBA has well over 60 players across its league , It's more to do with time constraint me thinks.

WWE are the ones who select the roster. WWE also pay the legends for appearing in the game. With the recent profit drops in the company due to the Network and TV deal (that saw investors sell their stock), it's no wonder that the legends roster in the game have been cut way down.

The roster size is fine in my opinion, but I'm sure others wish there were additional wrestlers.

Cra2yey33493d ago

There's characters in them games I nor anybody I play with even use like zack Ryder so a smaller roster with big names is fine.

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.

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

Rambokind1599d ago

Ah hell yes! That was loads of fun.

Acecalibur1599d ago

Fire Pro just gets better. Buy it.

micdagoat191599d 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 No Mercy
WCW vs. nWo Revenge

micdagoat191595d ago

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

TheTony3161599d ago

Yes. The last great wrestling game was svr 2006.

addictedtochaos1599d 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.

AK911679d ago

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