The sad truth about franchises that ride the "annual train" and release a new game yearly is that they rarely innovate or stay fresh. Wrestling games are no exception to this rule. Yet the Smackdown vs. Raw franchise has seemed to be evolving enough with each release to keep old fans playing while recruiting a wealth of new ones.
THQ's latest release WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2009 is concentrating on the co-op through evolving team matches. Tag teams will now share a momentum bar. After charging up enough momentum, players can unleash devastating moves, wracking combos, and match-ending finishers.
One week from the next gen release of WWE 2K15, let's take a look at how moves and animations have evolved (?) through the WWE Games series... After comparing the character models with last week's video, we now look at the animation of several finishers / signature moves.
Many of the old animations look better than the new ones especially the Sweet Chin Music and Goldberg's spear. The 2K14 Clothesline from Hell looks awesome though.
Comparing the face textures of WWE Games character models through the years... featuring John Cena, Booker T, JBL, Undertaker, Hulk Hogan, Mr. McMahon and many more... evolution?
I hope that was the last generation version of 2k15 if it is I'm canceling my pre order.
WWE have produced a lot of video games in their time, with varying degrees of quality. Which are the best though? Jason Delacey tries to pick five Stone Cold Stunners.
Here comes the pain.... all time fav WWE...
once my cousins and i played elimination chamber whole night .. one match whole night.. good times
peace
Wrestling games = WASTE OF MONEY.
