I *really* want October to get here so we can find out if Visual Concepts is actually changing anything, or if it's the same recycled garbage game we've been getting for the last 5+ years.

Has there even been so much as a screenshot yet? 3 months out? I would suggest not getting your hopes up

My bet would be recycled garbage since I'm sure they are already working on Next Gen exclusively. I probably won't get this game and if I do, it'll be about a year or two after its release.

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Didn't they announce it's got an entirely new gameplay due to last years essentially being the THQ game repackaged due to how completed it was.

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Don't they claim it's entirely new gameplay every year though?

 

[Haws Bah Gawd]

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Always. Every year it's a whole new experience with Predator Technology Version WHAT-THE-FUCK-EVER, "all new" Create-A-Finisher animations and every move in the game reanimated!

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Not sure original source but Rajah confirmed RVD and Xavier Woods are on the game roster.

 

[vivisectvi]

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Supposedly RVD tweeted "yep" to a fan asking if he was in the game this year.

 

[ViciousFish]

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

He needs that $6000

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Supposedly the 2K15 roster has leaked online: http://attackofthefanboy.com/news/wwe-2k15-roster-leaks-online/ and http://www.dualshockers.com/2014/07/27/rumored-wwe-2k15-roster-leak-features-cm-punk-and-mankind-but-dont-bo-lieve-it/

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Based on some of the names included and excluded, I feel like that roster probably isn't real.

 

[Danville_Wrestling]

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Yeah, I'd agree. Stan Stasiak as a playable character? LOL.

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

That's not too crazy! The plot of this game may be 50th Anniversary or something. Koloff vs. Sammartino and such.

 

[MillenniumMan831]

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

I can fathom having every WWF Champion in history in the game.

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Well Angle and Hardy are for sure in that scenario. Superstar is in a bad mood with them again (and has been for some time) so he's out too. No Andre for whatever reason. Everyone else seems in order if the list is correct. Oh, Pedro Morales and Slaughter got shafted if that were a thing too.

 

[MillenniumMan831]

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

I probably should have actually looked at the list before making that statement.

The last video game sold horribly and had big names like Savage, Warrior, etc. in it. As Tony Schiavone might say, "Koloff vs. Sammartino? Like that'll put butts in the seats."

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

The roster isn't going to be what gets people back, it's if the game doesn't suck and isn't a bug filled nightmare. The last two games have had major bugs to two elements of the game that made them unusable.

Custom logos should NOT have had the malfunctions it had and the year before CC was a broken wreck along with 2 counts of all the fucking things.

If the new games avoids death errors? People will consider buying it. But wrestling isn't as popular anymore in general so I wouldn't expect massive sales to begin with. But who wants to buy a game where you know if something is seriously wrong with it, sorry about your damn luck and maybe we will fix it next year.

I know I haven't bought it on release and never WILL give them 60 for it. The most I'll consider is 30 to 35 on Black Friday.

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

I'm a glutton for punishment so I'm definitely paying $60 to be a beta tester. Hell, who am I kidding, I've already pre-ordered it.

 

[Baby Shoes]

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

After waiting and not getting Warrior last year, I am for sure not missing Sting. So I will have to order.

Uh, you can still get him for $1.99 in the PSN Store! You can do the same with Sting if you wait.

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

With the game, season pass and Sting, I'd still be under 60 if it doesn't suck.
I'm holding my ground.

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Cena looks terrifying. More realistic, but terrifying.

Also: The hook this year will be a career mode similar to the one in NBA 2K14 AND a recreation of a famous rivalry (rivalry to be announced soon).

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Crossing my fingers for Bodydonna Skip vs Barry Horowitz

 

[KingPK]

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

Can't wait to play through Cena vs. Orton!

Re: Wrestling Games 2014

I hope there is a Sting mode where you constantly get into teams that betray you!
