WWE 2K16 ..... A Pre Release Review



I've been a wrestling fan probably since I was in diapers. The first match I remember as a kid was The Undertaker vs Giant Gonzalez at WrestleMania 9. Giant Gonzalez walking to the ring in his tight ass Wolverine get up and The Undertaker walking out like a bad ass with Paul Bearer and his vulture in tow... Wrestling was FN awesome! The games sucked at the time but once the mid 90's came along with N64 and the PS1 wrestling games were just as sweet as wrestling was. WCW World Tour WCW vs NWO Revenge WWF No Mercy WWF Smackdown 1 & 2 WWF Smackdown Shut Your Mouth WWF Here Comes The Pain. Wrestling games were FN awesome. Eventually the best company went away eventually the best wrestlers went away eventually wrestling became repetitive and boring and so did the video games. Eventually WWE got smart and figured out wrestling fans missed the glory days of wrestling WWE fans missed The WWF Attitude Era. WWE made most of WWE 13 about The Attitude Era and its biggest stars from the late 90's unsurprisingly the game sold extremely well and was very fun! Then came 2K14 which had a great 30 Years of WrestleMania Mode but was seriously lacking the greats and the fun of the last game. Then came the trailer for next gen WWE 2K15 which looked incredibly real! Sadly that was just about the only good thing about 2K15... With Stone Cold Steve Austin on the cover of WWE 2K16 I have high hopes this time around will be more like The Attitude Era again. I have high hopes to see the best of WWF like Stone Cold Steve Austin The Rock Ministry of Darkness Undertaker Retro Kane The Big Boss Man Ken Shamrock 2 Cool APA The Dudley's Team Xtreme Matt Hardy Jeff Hardy n Lita I would also like to see some WCW greats like Hollywood Hogan Macho Man Randy Savage Scott Hall Kevin Nash Sting Big Poppa Pump Scott Steiner DDP Goldberg and so many more greats I'm sure I'm missing. I want to see a story mode more like that of WWE Day of Reckoning 1 & 2 heck I would settle for Smackdown Shut Your Mouth or WWE Raw 2 Ruthless Aggression style. I want backstage areas that are interactive like in WWE Here Comes The Pain and WWF No Mercy. I want I quit matches I want casket matches I want falls count anywhere matches with backstage area support I want alot of cool bad ass stuff from previous versions which I'm sure sadly isn't likely to make the cut... Hopefully we will at least get a good WWF and WCW roster though... Here's hoping for the best when the game gets released... Can't get much worse than WWE 2K15 at least...
