With videogames, especially ones from an on going series, expectations should remain in line with the series history. We expect games to improve year to year, game to game. But it is unreasonable to expect a game to fix all issues in one year and be a completely new game, especially in a year's time.

Being picky and having high expectations is something I have worked to control over the past few years. We all want the best out of games (or any form of entertainment we enjoy) but I realized that having high expectations or expecting near perfection only leads to disappointment. Every thing is going to have flaws, especially games.Typically high expectations cause every flaw to be illuminated, unless our expectations result in ignorance of the flaws because we are unable to accept that our expectations are not met. Most things (games, movies, tv shows, etc) are most enjoyable when they aren't viewed over critically.

Yeah there is.
And to have such high expectations from this particular game is being ignorant of the past and the way things typically work in this industry.
First year games from companies are never as fully fleshed out as there potential would suggest.
Yearly titles first year on a new set of hardware are also typically a little shallower then then the previous years title on the previous generations hardware.
Now combine that's it a new company taking over a yearly franchise, not starting from scratch, AND the fact that it's the first year of a new generation
History would dictate that we should be getting something that looks great and has a lot of promise/heading in the right direction. But won't be as fully fleshed out or polished as it will be in the future. First year game=temper expectations.Comment

I don't know but to me this game looks really good. However that is probably because I haven't owned a wrestling game since the first Smackdown vs Raw so I'm pretty excited for this one.Comment

You ain't lying. This is exactly what I was saying in the other thread--wait and see how the game looks with the chain wrestling and the HUD turned on. That finish was absolutely wicked, and you could see what a huge effect stamina had on the gameplay.
My only concern gameplay wise is that it looked like Rollins didn't have enough time to do the turnbuckle dive he wanted to do, because he was climbing the ropes slowly, and Ambrose always got to his feet before Rollins could make the leap. It might be hard for guys with high-flying finishers...Comment

Huh? Have you ever been in the Madden or Live forums? No developers get "passes" on OS except maybe the Show devs.Comment

I wonder if Rollins is a high flying kind of guy in the game. I would imagine that the true high flyers would manage to use that top rope more often and there's a way to make that work? Maybe they are playing up the high risk element of things. Either way, I liked what I saw!"If you ain't first, you're last" ~Ricky BobbyComment

Do we have to preorder to get Sting? I'm reconsidering picking this game up after being impressed by a few videos. But Target is giving $15 gift cards for WWE 2k15 on Black Friday. I'd rather wait to take advantage of that. But I'm a huge Sting fan, so unlocking him is a must.Comment
