WWE 2K15 Day One Impressions, Post Yours Here

I'm loving this game! Career mode is a ton of fun so far and just bought the accelerator and started creating the universe. The wrestling is second to none. Very realistic and sim.

Not a fan of this game. I feel like every time the CPU gets on a roll, its near impossible to stop them. Or to reverse and timing of the R2 (Ps4) is also VERY tough. Getting very frustrated.

I'm a bit like that. I was never amazing at kicking out, but usually even after a finisher I felt like I had a chance. Don't get me wrong, I like that you are actually in real trouble when you get pinned, but I don't want to be losing to a back suplex or a headbutt.

Adds a bit of unpredictability but I just wish the meter was a little bit kinder, especially in the early to middle part of the match.

I'm enjoying the gameplay a lot more though having got stuck into it properly. With the right opponents you can have great matches.

How 'new' would the mode be to somebody like me? 2.) How's the online play? ** ** I think I'm going to pass on the game, but I'm still considering it. With GTA V (and the Halo: MCC when the multiplayer becomes consistent by the year 2017) taking up my time, I doubt I'll give it much of any play after two weeks, but the game looks gorgeous and the new MyCareer (or whatever it's called, if I butchered the name) looks extremely fun.

Well Universe is pretty much the same as it was in 2K14. They added a Rivalry Editor in which you can make your own rivalries by deciding on 2 wrestlers and the length of the feud but its not as great as it sounds. Other than that its pretty much the same as it would of been in WWE'13

Im glad its like that. One of the biggest issues I had with these games for years was how weak the AI was. I could go through a long run of matches taking very little damage but now the AI actually does stuff which is good.

Going through the HBK/HHH Showcase. I can't believe the Katie Vick references they keep throwing out. I tried so hard to remove that angle from all memory. Thanks for reminding me 2K.

Picked this up Friday night and jumped right into a Mycareer mode. I haven't played a wrestling game or even watched wrestling since the days of PS2, but the game peaked my interest.

I played four matches, a couple of them being training matches. I'm enjoying so far. Took me a couple of matches to get onto the controls and chain wrestling, but I picked up the basics pretty quickly, which is important.

As I'm not really a huge wrestling fan, it's hard for me to comment on how accurate the game is to the actual sport, but in my opionion it looks top notch. The animations of moves and attention to smaller details are catching my eye.

The lack of 100 CAW slots and is not a huge issue to me, but I could certainly see it being and issue for some.

Glad I made the purchase so far.

Same with trio. Even if I DL a Scott Hall CAW, no NWO entrance. uuuugh. I guess I was spoiled having NWO in last years It is awesome that CM Punks old song is in though. So much better than Cult of Personality.

The music is there though if you use Hollywood Hogan.
