On this week's edition of Friday Night WrestleCast, we share our candid thoughts on the best and worst wrestling video games of all time.
GM Mode is one feature that definitely needs to return to the current WWE wrestling games especially given the brand split between Raw and Smackdown. 2K has plenty of other classic wrestling games to look to for ideas but the question of whether or not they will make changes still remains unanswered.
I really miss GM mode. Smackdown 1 and 2 are my all time favourites though. Probably because of nostalgia of the wrestlers in those games.
Big fan of World Tour and Revenge. Day of Reckoning was also another stellar one as it played a lot like the N64 games and had a great CAW mode. I made some wild creations in that game.
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.
Rebel Gaming takes a look at the first wrestling game on the Nintendo DS.
IMO the worst of the smackdown games. The whole class system, while making sense on paper, just did not work out in gameplay form. It was after 08 that the series started progressively getting better
THQ and Yukes are realizing the freedom PSN gives you on creating content on PS3. Tournaments will be very fun and innovative due to what PS3 brings plus SIXAXIS controls. Due to XBOX live's lame @$$ restrictions, I dont forsee this on 360 ever.
P L A Y B 3 Y O N D
so the 360 gets custom soundtracks?
and the PS3 gets sixxaxis feature( which the dev says allows you to control the camer fps style in the wrestlers entrance)
so i guess the 360 gets a highly functional option for create wrestler while ps3 owners get a lame sixaxis gimmick?
i have both systems so oh well.
to be honest...i like my ps3 much better, but i will prolly get the 360 version due to that one difference.
so stupid.
I don't understand the fascination with wrestling. Maybe its because I don't sleep with my sister or watch NASCAR. Its just low-rent and not entertaining. Yay..lets watch something completely scripted and smash beer cans on our heads! Anyway I am sure several of you think I am being judgemental, but I live in TN and this sh@t is everywhere (that and NASCAR). If people want to see real talent, the UFC and Pride (merged now) are where its at.
I will probably purchase the 360 version of Smackdown vs Raw as well. Though the tournament feature is rather invigorating for the PS3, I love the fact that I can create myself and then create my own song to go along with it.
I'll download the demo in November for the Xbox 360.
