Like, all my complaints would melt away if the Universe mode was actually as functional as it should be 6 years later instead of barely evolving, but they say they're improving it every year.

I am really looking forward to seeing the new graphics, but I'm not sure if that's to laugh at or be impressed by. Either would give me some fun.

Last WWE game I played the ladder match was awful, CPU tried to do nothing but set up the ladder and climb it, no offense no nothing.

Universe mode has such fantastic potential, but after saying that for something like 5 or 6 years now, I have no reason to think they'll meet that potential.

Loved doing Sheamus's Razor Edge through tables after walking around to line it up.

#BROKEN Hasney 07-07-2017 02:30 PM

I really hope you can use that to Awesome Bomb people from the ring to the outside through tables

Pretty much. The fact that it's been so bad is a combination of laziness and not wanting it to be so good that you see no reason to upgrade to the next game.

#BROKEN Hasney 07-10-2017 09:13 AM

Coming to Switch too. Depending on if it keeps the same features and how good the engine upgrade is on PS4, I could be tempted for a portable fuck around version.

#BROKEN Hasney 07-10-2017 09:33 AM

8-man matches are in the Switch version, so they're not just porting the old 360 version and calling it a day at least. The statement WWE put out makes it sound like it's the exact same feature set as the PS4/XB1 version.

Evil Vito 07-10-2017 11:12 AM

Supposedly they've already ruled out custom music on PS4 again. Fuck.

It's especially annoying because MLB The Show has had the feature for the last couple of years, so it's known that it is actually possible to do it. Granted, The Show is developed by Sony so that's probably why they were granted an exception.

DAMN iNATOR 07-12-2017 11:51 PM

I REALLY shouldn't, and I know I shouldn't, but I will probably fold like a cheap suit and pre-order sooner than later, in some kind of desperate hope that 8 player modes won't suck copious amounts of ass.

Collectors Edition "celebrates" 15 years of Cena

http://mms.businesswire.com/media/20..._1920x1080.jpg

<li>The WWE 2K18 Deluxe Edition video game, featuring</li>
<li>Access to WWE 2K18 Season Pass</li>
<li>Playable versions of Batista and Rob Van Dam, two of John Cena’s legendary rivals</li>
<li>Playable versions of Cena recreating his appearances at ECW One Night Stand 2006 and WrestleMania XXVI</li>
<li>Access to the Kurt Angle Pack, which includes two playable versions of The Olympic Hero</li>
<li>Exclusive premium packaging that includes a unique cover sleeve, which will delight both Cena’s fans and his detractors</li>
<li>An exclusive Mattel action figure featuring John Cena with Cena/Cena Nuff T-shirt options</li>
<li>A Fanatics limited-edition commemorative plaque that includes a piece of the ring mat from Cena’s historic 16th World Title triumph at Royal Rumble 2017, as well as a hand-signed photo from The Cenation Leader himself</li>
<li>Limited edition WWE SuperCard in-game cards decorated with Cena (Nuff) card backs that feature Cena, Batista and Rob Van Dam</li>

Well I sure am glad that if you're a peasant who can only afford $59.99 regular or the $79.99 Deluxe edition you have to wait on Batista and RVD, like they shenanigans they pulled with the NXT edition last year. But hey, if you own a Switch, you don't even have the option of buying this.

It's out October 17th if you really want it. But hurry! There's only 30,000 of these bad boys!!

#BROKEN Hasney 07-27-2017 09:19 AM

Also LOL at legendary rival RVD. That was just part of the Edge/Cena feud.

Evil Vito 07-27-2017 09:20 AM

Pass.

Thought I read that Batista and RVD would come with the Deluxe Edition...maybe I'm wrong

If Tony Nese isn't given the same level of detail on his abs then this game can fuck right off.

Fignuts 08-03-2017 01:35 PM

That sure is a screenshot of wwe 2k18.

Frank Drebin 08-03-2017 01:39 PM

Totes gonna pre order due to todays newz.

The look on his face feels like he's saying "Why can't you just take a year off and start from scratch with a new engine?"

#BROKEN Hasney 08-03-2017 04:36 PM

If Seth is that ripped, I'm assuming it's a sequel to WWE All-Stars.

#BROKEN Hasney 08-03-2017 04:38 PM

They did do a second.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DGUDxJhVYAAJ8Cs.jpg:large

Honestly, comparing it to the 2k16 entrance version, it is much better. But entrance lighting is better than gameplay, so let's see what happens.

How these games look hasn't been an issue for several years now, unless everybody gets scanned this year.

Looks surprisingly good. The texture on the belt finally makes it not look like a toy, even if it is a bit thin still. For me, they just need to do 3 things to prove that this is the massive upgrade this video makes it look like it is
  1. Show lower card wrestlers, especially the women. These were always lacking the spit polish the big names get. if they improve there, then fantastic.
  2. Show actual gameplay. Since 2k15, there has been better lighting in the entrances compared to when you're actually wrestling
  3. Show actual gameplay. Since 2k15, there has been better lighting in the entrances compared to when you're actually wrestling

Evil Vito 08-14-2017 01:22 PM

Yeah, I want to see lower card guys. They seem to only focus on the top talent and half ass on the rest.

Evil Vito 08-14-2017 01:24 PM

Oh shit they did drop a Tyler Breeze screenshot.

Evil Vito 08-16-2017 09:18 AM

Tozawa is actually a really nice reveal. The cruisers were really the only main roster dudes I wasn't sure of. Neville and Aries were going to be holdovers but outside of them I figured maybe TJP, Kendrick, and Swann since the they were cruiserweight champs. Everyone else was a big question mark, Tozawa included.

Bet 10 to 1 the Hardys end up as DLC even though they'll be on-disc.

I actually don't think that's too bad of a likeness all things considered. But given that Nikki's main appeal isn't meant to be her looks I'd agree they're not out of the woods yet.

Let's see how badly they fuck up Billie Kay and Peyton Royce if they're in.
