A Possible Reason Why WWE Games Are Not On The PC

Apart from the 2002 release of WWE Raw on the PC, ever since there has never been a WWE game released for the PC ever again. THQ has somewhat given us an explanation for this.

I've tried expressing my views on wanting this on many occasions on the PC on the official WWE 12 forums, but everyone on there seems to live in a fantasy world where they believe all PC gamers just pirate everything and don't realise you can plug a controller in if that's how you feel comfortable playing.

I can't remember the last time a game was leaked and pirated on PC before console. Every game on console that comes out is pirated way before the PC version. I'm not saying take it off consoles and make it PC exclusive, i'm saying it's immature and ignorant to have these views. It's the same mindset as people who don't realise there are other games on PC other than The Sims and World Of Warcraft.

Sorry for the rant but you don't do the stereotype of immature childish console gamers any favours when you convince yourself of things that are untrue.

Yes, i would love to have the WWE games on PC.

Wwe is just one of those games where you sit on a couch and have a buddy over to drink and swear when they lose. Thats the best way to experience it. But its a big pain in the ass to do with a pc.

Pjuice4459d ago

its so easy to play games with a controller on pc and steam is releasing a new ui that you can use a controller with to navigate all of steam from the couch or wherever, soon you will be able to have a hardcore gaming rig with mouse and keyboard and then be able to go to the couch turn on steam and it will be like using a console but better you don't have to change disks...and is long as its capable which isn't hard at the moment allot better graphics.

Don't forget the UFC Undisputed and Fight Night series. Dont know why they havent brought those games to PC yet. Especially since the PC platform doesn't really have any MMA/Boxing type games, which is a shame.

xruiner894459d ago

Yeah that too, would love to see both on PC.

Somebody4459d ago

UFC is THE fighting game I want to see on the PC. I kept looking at every piece of leaked info about it hoping that it'll be announced for the PC. Still hoping.

pandehz4459d ago

Fight Night is amazing. Never had so much fun with a boxing game.

zu4G4459d ago

yeah cuz PC sucks at wrestling games, if you disagree it's Damn True..

rattletop4459d ago

i too would like to see a pc port. at times i play here comes the pain using pcsx2 emulator.

pandehz4459d ago (Edited 4459d ago )

Honestly I found the WWE games to be pretty lame tho i did own RAW from 2002 and I watch my mates play the recent ones on PS3.

Dam lol the wrestlers look constipated all the time. Also some of them seem to have something stuck up the wrong vent. The way they walk is lolworthy so maybe its good for that.

If WWE does come to PC it should come with realistic animation, sweat, proper auditorium and crowd lighting, physics, hair animation etc. Especially no more plastic skin.

None of the today's wwe stuff is appealing.

DeadlyFire4458d ago

They could make it work if THQ/Yukes wasn't developing it.

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 Wood1561d ago

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

Rambokind1561d ago

Ah hell yes! That was loads of fun.

Acecalibur1561d ago

Fire Pro just gets better. Buy it.

micdagoat191561d 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

b163o11560d ago (Edited 1560d ago )

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

micdagoat191558d ago

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

TheTony3161561d ago

Yes. The last great wrestling game was svr 2006.

addictedtochaos1561d ago

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

Thq and AKI stopped making the games. The N64 games were the best

fad6323012d ago

couldn't agree more, think it was No Mercy which i liked the best, although I remember the WCW NWO game being very good also.

In its current carnation it will never top the N64 games

3-4-53011d ago

WWE 12 was the last good wrestling game.

WeAreLegion3012d ago

I'll tell you where they went right. WWE All-Stars freakin' rules.

Ruggadagod3012d ago

You can obviously tell they got lazy.

showtimefolks3012d ago (Edited 3012d ago )

IMO the story aspects became the worst. the universe mode isn't as good as the GM mode(imo)

commentary is really bad
enemy ai isn't good neither is hit detection

instead of putting effort into single player story all we have gotten are past glory moments. i mean we are basically watching replays of old matches

i am surprised we didn't get a true wwe vs wcw game

the one wwe game few years ago with wcw story line was good(i had fun with story mode atleast)

here comes the pain
shut your mouth
day of reckoning
no mercy

are some of the best wwe wrestling games

vanity293012d ago

all these years and no real ragdoll physics to make selling moves look different either. 2k15 and 16 have like halfassed ragdoll.

nevin13012d ago

It's funny how you mentioned modern games problem being story related.

But then mentioned

here comes the pain
shut your mouth
day of reckoning
no mercy

HCTP, SYM and No Mercy was cherished by its gameplay.

Its seems alot of people these days are more interested in stories in videogames then the actual game. Gameplay should be number 1.

roxette923012d ago

wwe 2k14 was the last great release gameplay wise. wwe 2k16 still has the annoying chain grappling.

showtimefolks3011d ago

nevin1

they could have a bad story but still a original story. these past wwe games have moments from past like 30 years of wrestlemania and attitude era

i rather just get original stories and that's just my personal opinion
