WWE 2K14

I don't think they're gonna get much cleaner than that. Like Matt said, next year's should be the one where we judge 2K for how they handle things.

 

I'm seriously hoping someone over there is currently working a new engine for next years game.

[Chris2K 176]

I'm not overly concerned about the graphics, but if it looks the way it does now it's showing that they haven't had time to make many improvements, and as Denton says that won't be until next year's game at the earliest. So with that in mind are they going to be charging full price for a game that isn't much more than a roster update? I bet they do.

 

It's a shame that they aren't waiting a year to release a new game on the next gen consoles, but I'm guessing they're contractually obliged to release one every year.

JBL is officially in (as is the pre-Spinner WWE Championship belt). This leaves the confirmed roster looking like this -:

 

Ultimate Warrior

JBL

Dolph Ziggler

Shawn Michaels

Randy Savage

Ryback

John Cena

Undertaker (Dark Side version)

Undertaker (Biker version)

The Rock

Steve Austin

 

Cory Ledesma (the Creative Director) gave an interview where he has said that this game will have the largest roster of any of the WWE games to-date.

And the worst graphics.

[ViciousPrism 177]

Yay for JBL and yay for cars coming out at the side of the stage.

[Guest Jayfunk]

Has anyone pointed out the title is pretty bad, 2K14 doesn't shorten anything which something like 2k4 did they might has well have 2014 or even better WWE '14 I know it might be part of a series name but it they should have dropped it after 2009

[King 277]

I think the title is the least of their problems.

[ViciousPrism 177]

It's play on the fact that it's a 2K sports title. ¬.¬

Well the 2K guys name all their sports titles 2Kwhatever. Every years its NBA 2K14 etc or whatever the year is, so its just uniformed in with the rest of the established named sorts games they bring out.

[ViciousPrism 177]

I'll be long dead, but I hope in the year 3000 they rebrand as 3K sports, or their shit won't make sense.

damn right

So that confirms classic Rock, and Hogan in the game. Maybe even two, Hollywood and old school Hogan

[Guest The Beltster]

Even in 2013 Hogans name carries enough clout to be the main focal point of the advertising for a new game for the company he doesnt even work for. This is why he still gets big money when he cant draw: people are still blinded by the Hulk Hogan name and the reputation he used to have as such a cash cow.

 

Good for him, I hope he is getting a nice pay cheque out of it.

 

The graphics in the Hogan/Andre shot look so much better than the crap the Warrior was in. Looks like 2K are going to use that grainy filter on the old matches to make them look retro like they do in the NBA games.

[Guest Jamster26]

I'm a huge fan of Universe, hopefully they improve it again this year.

I'm really hoping they just make them alternative costumes. I hated how WWE '13 put every costume change as a different character.

[Guest Ciaran The King]

I want Owen Hart

[Chris2K 176]

Martha Hart says you're not having him. And she also thinks your selfish for tarnishing his legacy as a human being by remembering he had a wrestling career.

I'm sorry :(

To be fair there, the alternate costumes were on the same slot, it was different generations / versions which had different sections on the roster, which was probably because they had different entrances and movesets.
