    WWE 2K15 is not that bad of a game. Yes they did remove a lot of creation stuff and some match types, but the stuff that was added makes the gameplay far better. Create an entrance has limited movements but customizing different styles of lighting and Pyro make the entrance more exciting to create in my opinion. Previous entries had more movements but limited Pyro and lighting for theWWE 2K15 is not that bad of a game.

I'm not the greatest with reviews but I can say this much, I love the creation suite with its limitations and I love the gameplay. I feel I will be playing this game through til 2k16 comes out.

    Nobody is reviewing this for what matter.In the ring,is it fun?Yes.I haven't heard one complaint about gameplay.It's all about match types.You all are haters.You say wrestling is fake then when it becomes more realistic you blast.Make up your mind.Most different match types happen in PPV's.If you don't like it you don't love wrestling and you shouldn't be playin it anyhow .

    This is a new game that they built on a new engine from the ground up. I expected that a lot of things would be cut out. Think of this game as the foundation of WWE games on the new consoles.

I expected that a lot of things would be cut out. Think of this game as the foundation of WWE games on the new consoles. The game play itself in this game is miles ahead of 2K14 and 2K15 on last gen consoles. You can feel the heavier hits, the more realistic pace, and watch the stamina system really take control of a match. Matches closer represent what you would see on Monday Night Raw due to the stamina and slow, not arcade like, pace. The showcase mode gets the job done, it focuses on two of the best rivalries in WWE history, and is objective based so I can unlock things, great. My career is pretty good now, but it will only receive more work and polish as this is the foundation for the future. This came accomplished way more than I wanted it to... remember SVR 2008: At least it's not that bad. Expect that now that the engine is done, for them to do a slight graphical update for 2K16, but really focus on creation, universe, and my career. Now that WWE 2K15 has made an awesome foundation, expect 2K16 to be the game of the ages. Expand

    People complaining about the missing modes.
    I think its good to remove them and re-create them.
    Better then having old ones which causing performance problems or bugs while being in the ring! Create a Finisher... this moves cant be stopped by an attack. dont break trough tables.... People complain about the missing MP3 Support. Its Sonys fault. Not the fault of 2K. Important is

    Its Sonys fault. Not the fault of 2K.

    Important is that 2K Made a new WRESTLING GAME
    from action to simulation. Important is what happens in the ring.
    Gameplay is awesome and the Stamina isnt perfect but realy good for the first try.
    Now there have a stable base to improve there game.
    GOOOOOOD LUCK 2 K!!!

    Gameplay: 8/10
    Content: 7/10
    Engine/performance/graphic: 10/10

    = ~8,3

    its running without D1 - Patch! 1080p with 60fps! has scanned wrestlers weapons and ring!
    Gameplay Improvements! Just less content...

    Its not THQ/WWE anymore thx 2K.
    Its now a real 2K game!
    I would give that game a 8/10 but because of so many Haters ill give it a 10

    Graphics are amazing! The most important new feature, along with the new control system of the wrestler, is found in the My Career mode. I have been waiting for this feature for years. The controls have been completely redesigned to provide better gameplay and the graphic quality is aligned with what was expected on average. A CLEAR winner for 2K and WWE!

    AWESOME WORk 2K! please keep evolving the game on this new foundation despite the bad reviews! and this is coming from a both a fan and active wrestler!

    Improved character models are WWE 2K15’s biggest selling point, and they’re definitely a major improvement. Using the same face-scanning technology as 2K’s NBA franchise, the new models look much closer to the actual wrestlers they’re supposed to represent.

While this is just a cosmetic improvement, it makes goes toward making PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions feel “next gen.” It’s a welcome change.

    WWE 2K15 changes that by adding a MyCareer mode. You make your own wrestler and start from the bottom of the WWE at the NXT training center and fight your way up to the main roster. Competing in matches earns you points that you can use to improve your wrestler and learn abilities, and you always have a milestone to work toward (like winning a new championship belt or trying to earn a spot on the roster of a bigger show). It’s a meaty mode that gives fans the chance to play out the dream of becoming a WWE legend.

    Well done 2K!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Wwe 2k15 is in my opinion the best wwe out there. I say that because the graphics are amazing. The finishers and signatures are 10 times better and the career mode is so addictive. To come from a superstar trying out for nxt to a hall of famer is super fun. People are complaining about how they took away the crest your own finisher and belt. We'll first of all don't all u guys realize that when u create a finisher it doesn't even have a the same affect as the actual finishers. It does no damage and sucks. It takes me like 3 times to do my finisher for the guy to go down for the 3 count. So calm down people. Now about the belts. I can see why people would get mad about that and everything. But to be honest I could care less that they did that. I never created a belt because it was dumb and I just didn't care if i created a belt. So for me this is a great game and I love it u should totally get it. Expand

    I liked it for the most part. The MyCareer was good but could have been better. I was not happy with what they cut out from the game including not being able to make a diva. Really I would be happy if they cut out the universe mode and made more room for MyCareer content to make it more immersive.

    I haven't played a wwe game since 2004 and I got to say that this has been a fun experience. I loved the gameplay, it seems to have a more realistic feel to it. The graphics are top notch and I recommend this game to any fan of wwe or fighting games in general.

    The series finally moved forward and stopped looking like a relict. WWE 2K15 is not overflowing with changes, but they are there and are most welcome. [01/2015, p.79]

    WWE 2K15's debut on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One is good but not perfect: the gameplay is a highly fun simulation experience, but the game doesn't have all the feature depth of past games in the series. It is, however, a good template to build upon for future instalments.

    A big step up from the last-gen versions, but sadly the cut creation tools dent this champ's title belt. [Feb 2015, p.70]
