    Don't get me wrong, the game's story is fantastic as it allows you to play as either Stone Cold Steve Austin and play through the history of the hall of famer or play a more extensive campaign as your own player created superstar. Where this game falls flat is the lacking longtime support of uploading and using superstars from other users which caused the game to stop working on my SteamDon't get me wrong, the game's story is fantastic as it allows you to play as either Stone Cold Steve Austin and play through the history of the hall of famer or play a more extensive campaign as your own player created superstar. Where this game falls flat is the lacking longtime support of uploading and using superstars from other users which caused the game to stop working on my Steam Account completely unless I use the family share function.
    The character creation in itself also doesn't allow the same abominations as in previous games. A solid game with a nice soundtrack, but not necessarily the best in the series.

    Fighting feels sluggish. Come on, this is supposed to be wrestling as seen on TV! Even though there is more moves and combos than in Virtua Fighter 5, the action doesn't "click" as good as it should.

    It includes a huge roster and many gaming modes, such as the hours of joy it delivers are. The unprecedented depth of gameplay and the polished appearance, almost to the last detail, make me wonder what else could a fanatic WWE fan ask for.

    The big thing to take away from WWE 2K16 is that not much has changed, yet again. The roster is a lot bigger, and features that were missing last time do return, but this game being back in line with your 2014 release isn’t something we should be thankful for. The fighting, which was slated last year anyway, only seems to have been limited yet again, but not to a devastating degree - it just still isn’t good enough.
