About to play this game, what am I in for?

2005 was better, you could pile 2 tables and one ladder and climb it

im very nostalgic for it but youll have more fun with more arcade styled wrestling games such as wwe all stars, smackdown here comes the pain, or wwf no mercy

a mistake since 2005-2007 are the GOAT wrestling games and 2008 is when it started getting bad.

I mean it's not as shit as what came after, but still

2008 is went they went on the formula which was kept until '13 I believe. I have SvR 2007-13 so I think their good so have fun. Hate the newer ones though so may never buy one again.

BOBBY LASHLEY, I'LL BE A SUNNUVA BITCH, BOBBY LASHLEY

watch this thread get archived because it's an xbox game

It picked up a bit for 2009-2010
The last decent one was WWE 12

The literal worst game in the series. Non sensical season mode, garbage controls, shit roster. Only redeemable quality is the GM mode but even that was better in 07.

but wwe 13 and 2k14 were literally just wwe 12 with more bug fixes

had it on ps2 and it was dope . they introduced a system where you had more control over slams and there was no invisible barrier stopping u from slamming people to the outside. It is also the 1st wrestling game to introduce full 360 degree running

No idea if 360 version is the same

yeah man 2k14 is the best

>Undercarder front and center
It's probably shit

you are into some fun
only played svr 2007 though

what is the best wrestling game? i haven't played one in over a decade.

SvR2007

don't believe anybody that says it's No Mercy, because it fucking isn't

smackdown here comes the pain and smackdown shut your mouth are tied

SVR'07 was a glitchy mess when I played it

The beginning of the end. 2007 was much faster, 2008 was kind of slow.

>picking up 2008 instead of 2007

holy fuck man just stick your head in the oven

2006 is a personal favorite

SYMPHONY

>kills 2k18

Depends on what you want. When it comes to WWE games the best ones are generally considered:
>No Mercy
>The first few Smackdown games
>All-Stars (for different reasons, it's a very arcade-y take)
And of the modern ones I'd consider 2k14 the best since 15-17 pulled features in order to go into next-gen and 12-13 are buggier versions of 14. 2k18 appears to be shaping up well but the gameplay could still be bland.

Outside of that the Fire Pro Wrestling series is very highly praised. It's sprite-based with 3D movement, but it has good gameplay and great customization. The newest one after a long drought is hitting Early Access tomorrow I think.

OP needs a black hand to get post limit

Day of Reckoning was my shit when I was a kid

My nigga

Can't fucking wait. This'll probably be the only early access game I'll ever get.

They're getting a new engine and character stats system in 2K18 so fingers crossed its actually good

2008 was one of the worst SVRs.
