    Best wrestling game in years (which it's not surprising given the poor quality of the latest games...Specialy the last one) BUT the version for computers is poorly optimized and "MyCareer" mode is cool but monotonous.

    I am now trying to replay it and the reverse system is broken and the submission mini game is annoying. I am glad 2K22 has change these mechanics. My laptop now is struggling with the game but the game looks outdated on my new PC which I need graphic mods to look the same as 2k22.

    On the fence on recommending this. It's good for wrestling fans... however, the in-game roster is lack-luster, and unlike wrestling games of yesteryear, there's not really much in the way of storylines/cutscenes. The game tries to make conflicts/feuds... but more or less a match happens, where occasionally stuff can happen in those matches if the people are in a feud, and that's for theOn the fence on recommending this.

    Customization is great... can customize arenas, CAWs, belts, weekly-roster of shows, stats, etc, etc.    … Expand

    They did the 2k Story mode great. Reliving Austins wrestling past was a fun run. The side stuff after meh. But still enjoyed it. Not as great as 2k15 the year before but still good. This is when they started Rev. Tabs. no fun.

    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.
