Nice to see Take Two still supporting the PS2

>>388734575
Is this the Switch version or have they fucked Diva's up hard again this year?

>>388734575
Yukes is shit. Jesus fucking christ, drop those motherfuckers or create a new engine in-house and let them use them.

THEY'RE STILL USING THE SAME FUCKING ENGINE AS SMACKDOWN 2 FROM THE PSX. GET OR LICENSE A NEW FUCKING ENGINE ALREADY.

CHRISTOPAHH???

PS4 version and not just the divas

Is wrestling real?

>>388734983
More real than boxing, I can guarantee you that.

>>388734843
Looks like a shirtless NPC in Skyrim with settings as low as they can be

>the only wrestling games coming out anymore are substandard licensed WWE shit

Feels bad.

isn't that physically impossible with the way PS1 games handled graphics?

>>388738481
It is, that anons talking shit.

>>388738481
It's a heavily modified version of the SYM engine

You now remember when AKI games and Yukes were competing to make better WWF games
You now remember that the AKI games were way better anyway

Fire Pro Wrestling World

>mandrama games will never get the NBA 2k treatment
>yukes will continue shitting out turds every year

Just fuck off.

>there hasn't been a good wrasslin game since here comes the pain
People really need to stop buying these new games so they can learn how to make a good one again.

>>388739990
It's pretty clear 2K really wants to make a good wrestling game and has some passionate people on the project, but the fact that they have to shit out a game every year as per contract is holding them back. If they got a couple of years off they could make 2K21 the GOAT wrestling game.

As far as the games now, they've definitely been improving on a yearly basis since 2K15, although the visuals for 2K18 are a little fucked. I don't actually care how the real wrestlers look, I just want the CAW creator to be better

dunno bout you guys but i think ps2 models (especially the female wrestlers) are superior than this.

>>388740797
The last one I played was 2k15 or 16 I think but the engine 2K was using was the most anti-fun bullshit that made the THQ games all look 10/10. It's like they removed everything great that made the WWE series arcadey and fun and tried for their "muh basketball sim" direction

>>388743214
By improved I mean the games are getting better but none of them are as fun as 2K14 was. 2K15 was a slow mess, and basically the gameplay's been getting slightly faster with each installment. 2K17 is faster but has so many stupid mechanics like reversal stocks (can only reverse so many moves and then you have to "recharge" before you can do more reversals) and orange reversals (reversals that if used prevent your opponent from reversing anything for a period of time). 2K18 at least has some more match types so if nothing else that'll make it more fun than 2K17 by the merit of variety.

>>388743516
2K14 was the last THQ engine release, right? Fuck, I wish it was on PC, I haven't played any others since like 2010

Same female wrestler from WWE 2K18

>>388743752
THQ was in the middle of developing 2K14 when they went under. 2K basically took what they had and finished it since time was running low which is why 2K15 onwards is so different. The last non 2K WWE game was WWE '13.

>>388734575
Give me a current gen No Mercy or go to hell

apparently there's going to be a new WWE game next year by another set of developers, Askua was scanned like 2 weeks ago.

so 19 might be by someone else

The lighting in the arena is really harsh in these shots, they haven't dimmed the lights in the crowd.

>>388739217
No Mercy and WCW/NWO Revenge shat all over Smackdown.

I thought everyone knew this?
