:patrice: the old games were great but 2k changed the game with community creation

I was able to wrestle with whoever I wanted, I loved 2k12-2k14 :wow:

2K14 was the last time that wrestling games was a passion project :francis:. Even though 2K19 is the closest thing to that feeling, it will never top the following:

  • A compelling Story mode (Journey to WM :banderas:)
  • Streak mode:wow:
  • Universe mode felt more open than the newer games
  • Create Suite will never be topped because 2K want to take away shyt and play folks for the okie doke
  • The best wrestling roster of all time

We shytted on Yukes but forgot the machine that was behind the developer:mjcry:.

THQ would never:yeshrug:

Yukes deserved to be shytted on every now and then, because games like SVR 08 & WWE 12 never should've seen the light of day.

Yukes fell off HARD after SVR2006. Those 360/PS3 era games could've been much better.

I liked SVR 09-11 :salute:

them WWE 12 & 13 games were trash :hhh:


WWE 2K14 restored the feeling :wow:

I skipped a few games but got WWE 2K19 a few years ago and I'm still playing it now with a sick NJPW Universe :ohlawd:

To be fair, SVR 08 was going on next gen and that alone was a slog to work on because of new hardware.

WWE 12 tested out that new Predator engine so yeah the game was a monstrous mess despite me putting a shyt load of time into it. I had some of my best feuds on Universe Mode through that game. Even I had Hayabusa and Liger finally meeting on my promotion only for the shyt to just freeze because lolz :wow::mjcry::francis:

They had time to figure that out though since SVR 2007 was on the Xbox 360.

Compared to how they are now:picard:, at least they were creative with the games. Hell, Smackdown vs Raw 2011 had the best ladder physics that will sadly never be duplicated.
I had so much fun with those weapons physics in SVR2011 :ohlawd: only for them to dumb them down in WWE'12 :stopitslime:. That and Universe Mode (despite some asinine restrictions) was the saving grace of SVR2011. If it wasnt for those two things, that game would've been trash.

TBH I would take 2K16 and 2K19 over SVR2008 to WWE '13 any day of the week.

I swear 2K16 just hits different compared to the others in the series next to 2K19. I really need to revisit 2K16 again :wow:
