For everyone else it may be better waiting for WWE 2K15 as this will be the game that shows us where 2K games is going to take the series from here on out. Expand

    I'm a massive wrestling fan and I have been ever since I can remember so from a wrestling fans point of view, this game is everything you could possibly want! The roster is massive and it has something for everyone, from the likes of Hogan and Andre to Austin and The Rock, right up to guys like CM Punk and Daniel Bryan.The game itself is very similar to WWE'13, the people about this gameI'm a massive wrestling fan and I have been ever since I can remember so from a wrestling fans point of view, this game is everything you could possibly want! The roster is massive and it has something for everyone, from the likes of Hogan and Andre to Austin and The Rock, right up to guys like CM Punk and Daniel Bryan.The game itself is very similar to WWE'13, the people about this game clearly can't comprehend the fact that this is still a THQ game with the 2K logo plastered all over it, you cannot expect to see 2Ks input until next years title at the very least. However, the game modes such as WWE Universe and 30 Years of WrestleMania make this game very entertaining, with a lot of archive footage being used to tell the stories of each match. As for the creative side of things, I'd say this years game is the best ever, there have been numerous improvements to the CAW mode, players allowed to now use in-game wrestlers like Jericho and Punk as a template, Create-A-Finisher and Create-an-Arena are still as strong as they were in the previous titles so there's a lot to offer for those people that are into the creative side of things.

    Overall I'd say this game is great! I'd recommend it to anyone who is a hardcore wrestling fan or even someone who is just a casual fan, it's very entertaining and worth the £35 price tag.

    Graphic: A graphical improvement from WWE13 some wrestlers look more realistic while others look like clay figures. Still an advancement in the engine, and everything else looks believable. 9.

    Sound: Similar to WWE13's attitude era, the 30 years of Wrestlemania mode has voices clips used from the show. They sync in just fine and it makes the game feel more like a WWE game. The soundtrack is once again entrance music, and some of the music cuts, but finally this game allows for custom soundtracks on the PS3. 8.5.

    Gameplay: The gameplay mechanics from WWE13 return and are definitely improved. The pinning is improved and simpler. The in game WWE history events are much more interesting, and the wrestling moves are as realistic as the show. The reversing still annoys me because sometimes the timing says I'm off but I know I hit it on time, online it doesn't help when there's lag. The game still needs dedicated servers, but other than that this truly is a superb wrestling game. 9.

    Story: 30 years of Wrestlemania, and new modes such as defeat/defend the streak. This game is an improvement from last years Attitude Era. Although more Wrestling footage would have been appreciated especially at the last few matches. Every match in my opinion should show a hype up trailer of real footage, such as the rivalry between the wrestlers. 8.

    Replay Value: While the Wrestlmania mode is short, the game has a lot of replay value for a local party game. Also, multiplayer never gets old, I would recommend this game to any wrestling fan. Definitely one of the best rosters in any wrestling game to date. 10.

    Overall Score: 8.9 out of 10.

    I got this game for Christmas after I held onto SvR 2010 for too long. 3 weeks later, I finished the game. Story-mode wise, that is. I've played WWE '13 sometimes, but my money goes to 2K14. The reason for this is because of the huge roster + DLC, which is, I think, the biggest of the series; there are a lot of match types (some of which I didn't even get to try yet, I've been addicted toI got this game for Christmas after I held onto SvR 2010 for too long. 3 weeks later, I finished the game.

The reason for this is because of the huge roster + DLC, which is, I think, the biggest of the series; there are a lot of match types (some of which I didn't even get to try yet, I've been addicted to Tables matches), The Streak mode is a pretty fun additional mechanic, also I really like those mini-documentaries that were made for the "30 Years of Wrestlemania" mode, really well done. Also worth noting the big overhaul on character, finisher, arena, championship, entrance and move set customization. It's kind of a shame that the
    "30 Years of Wrestlemania" mode is so short and easy to beat. Took me about 6 hours to do everything in that mode. Online is a nightmare, takes about 1 second for the command to respond, and the host ALWAYS wins. AI is pretty dumb, sometimes it gets stuck walking towards a ladder or even a corner. Gameplay wise, it's pretty nice, really easy to adapt from other wrestling games, but it's a real downer when you're trying to hit another opponent, because it often doesn't detect him. Overall, it's a great game, casuals will have some fun out of it, and fans will very much enjoy it, unlike stupid 2K15.

    More of the same but that's no bad thing, The most fun I have had so far is inviting a friend over to play in a tornado tag (my friend has never played a WWE wrestling game before) and the results were highly entertaining along with some harsh language.

    Not the best wrestling game I've played, but, the improved mechanics and the 30 years of wrestlemania mode makes up for the negatives. Don't buy unless you're a diehard wrestling fan. Graphics could have been better, lets see what 2k has in store for us next year.

The graphics are terrific, the commentary could use some more work, the gameplay itself is smoother than past games, and the overall game experience is just great fun! 2K Games did a very good job and I can't wait to see what's going to come in WWE 2K15!

    Out of all the WWE games, this one is the best so far. There's a superstar templete on CAW. Though, the only thing I dislike about it is that they don't have the custom entrance video anymore. But it's a good game. So, yeah. This game is actually awesome.

Gráficos, jugabilidad, modos, roster y un modo historia que homenajea toda la trayectoria de la empresa a traves de La Vitrina de los Inmortales, El Escenario Más Grande de Todos... Wrestlemania!!! Ah, y el modo Streak de Undertaker. Simplemente, inmejorable.

    A poorly animated, unbalanced game that I didn’t enjoy at all. Although it does offer a lot of different punches, kicks and throws, its gameplay resembles a long, boring QTE. [13/2013, p.74]

    WWE '13 was a very successful game and had something new to offer, WWE 2K14 does not.
