We got to see Chris Benoit for the last time in the game, and the franchise has avoided featuring Benoit due to the nature of his death ever since.
Kurt Angle was also another legend who got featured in the game due to him receiving the Hall of Fame induction that year. Retro and modern are not terms that go hand in hand. Tecmo World Wrestling was brutally fun, and while there were only ten characters in the roster, there was a lot of gameplay variance.
With over 20 moves per character, there was a steep learning curve to the game that hardcore players loved. It is still one of the best games to try out if you love retro gaming and want to try out an 8-bit wrestling game. After playing 8-bit games for so long, the N64 was a one of a kind console that made gaming a whole lot more fun.
Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 is one of the best wrestling games ever made. Unfortunately, the game was a big hit in Japan, and it did not see a widespread release. Hardcore fans had to import the title in Western countries while others simply grew up without knowing about it.
While the N64 games were trying to offer a sense of realism to fans, this PS1 WWF game was trying to do the exact opposite. With multiple finishers possible back-to-back and lot of juggling involved, allowing you to throw your opponent around as much as you wanted — it was truly a recipe for a great wrestling game. It is only unfortunate that the Smackdown franchise did not do as well long-term and got overshadows by RAW.
If Smackdown continued to be as relevant over the years we would have two separate franchises battling it out instead of RAW being the poster child of the franchise while Smackdown continues being only a shadow of its former self.
One of the best things about the WWE franchise is that it does not shy away from lending its IPs ensure as many platforms get to experience the fun wrestling experience that the company has to offer. If you are someone who is into arcade-like wrestling games with lots of button mashing involved then WWE All-Stars is definitely one of the best games to try out. The coolest thing about the game is that it saw launch on the 3DS which is one of the most amazing handhelds out there and it also packs 3D graphics.
Being able to see your favorite wrestlers battle it out in 3D glory is definitely an experience most players are not going to forget anytime soon. WWE is yet another landmark game in the franchise.
The WWE franchise decided to stop lending IPs to aggressively to other developers and platforms just to get to most of the audience. Instead, it chose to develop its own identity and focus on improving the core WWE games as much as possible.
Universe mode saw some major changes and THQ has been carrying on the drive for improvement in recent games like 2K19 as well. Most importantly, WWE is one of the few games that you should actually pick up for the story. WCW was on a rampage in the 90s, and the New World Order storyline is one of the best wrestling crossovers we have ever seen. While WWE did prevail eventually and it was all part of a plot, it made things no less entertaining for the fans.
This famous title had over wrestlers who were featured from all over the world and players could also design another wrestlers using the character customization screen.
Many wrestling fans consider Fire Pro Wrestling Returns to be one of the best wrestling games ever made due to the variance in gameplay and the near-perfect game design. One of the most important things about Fire Pro Wrestling Returns is the accessibility. Character creation was exponentially expanded in this title, allowing players to customize every attribute of their wrestler, along with creating their own entrance, highlight reels, and finishing moves.
Another welcomed addition was the improvements to the vastly underrated Road to Wrestlemania game mode, which allowed players to create personalized stories for every single wrestler in the game where one's imagination could run rampant. Many consider Smackdown Vs.
Raw to be the deepest, most playable WWE game in years. The amount of time that can be lost delving into custom storylines and creating bizarre original characters can easily end up being in the hundreds for fans of the franchise. Mostly beloved for its absolutely brutal gameplay, this WWE game is by far the most "attitude era" out of any WWE game to date, and that's likely why fans still can't get over it. Being that the attitude era was and still arguably is the best time to be a wrestling fan, creating a game with attitude was definitely key, and that's what developer syn Sophia did.
The sequel to Wrestlemania runs off the same engine but proves that it can still prosper. The first game in the WWE game mythos to include storylines into gameplay, along with epic and brutal combat as well as finisher animations make WWF No Mercy a game long-time fans still reminisce about.
This title's easy-to-learn controls were a double-edged sword for it: casual gamers were able to essentially button mash and win fights while more hardcore gamers were limited in terms of combat options. Older entries in the series are highly regarded for their ridiculous and oftentimes over-the-top atmosphere, and it seems like 2K19 developer Yukes took those games to heart, and created something that both hardcore and casual fans could get behind.
Serving as by far the best title in the WWE 2K series, WWE 2K19 has nearly everything from wacky match types , a steller roster, and incredibly fun gameplay. It's a shame the series couldn't keep the momentum going following it.
Both the "My Career" and "Showcase" modes were praised for being fun and well-thought-out. They lacked severe bugs and captured the spirit of WWE games that fans crave: a wacky, over-the-top atmosphere with tight controls and nice graphics. Raw took the concept of brand wars to a whole new level with the introduction of fan-favorite game mode, General Manager mode, Or GM mode for short. GM mode is a fairly simple and straightforward game mode: players take control of either Smackdown or Raw and produce their rosters, matches, rivalry, champions, and more.
Players could run their own show and decide the fate of their show's wrestlers. While this game mode hasn't been around for over 10 years now, WWE 2K titles have introduced players to Universe mode which is similar to GM mode--sadly, however, Universe mode is nowhere near as good. Many, including critics, praise the sheer amount of content found in this title. Raw was made for different consoles including Xbox, Playstation 2 and Playstation 3.
A great feature of this game is the availability of different fighting styles to each wrestler. It gave pros and cons depending on who you face. Using the two available fighting styles, it allowed the player to be creative in playing the game. Another great feature of the Smackdown vs. Raw game is the availability of different weapons inside the ring. And lastly, there are several arena choices to choose from based from the events held in to Among the things that made this game unique is the reversal feature of the game.
It has a limited amount of reversals per game to prevent players from abusing the function. Another great feature of this game is that players have the option to attack opponents during entrances. It had a great review from its critics because of its smooth gameplay and great graphics.
The development of the game included realistic facial features. It includes 58 different move sets when you opt to create your own superstar. There are also a number of unlockable items when you play the season mode. This includes costumes. He has been married to Crystal Maurisa Goins since August 23, They have two Actor Ready to Rumble.
