WWE 2K14

[DC 536]

well most wrestling games are punch kick punch kick finisher.

You're not playing them right.

[The Icon 152]

Have you seen me playing? What I mean Is punching and kicking are the two most used moves. Well they were in the THQ games anyway.

 

 

EDIT

 

Come to think of it several TWO posters have seen me playing. We used to play on Xbox live.That was 3 /4 years ago mind you.

Judging by that screenshot Savage/Dibiase will be on the list

[DC 536]

I would guess that you're right, unless they're using that in the build to Hogan v Savage.

[Guest John Hancock]

They must have spruced up the graphics, because those pictures look a million times better than the videos.

universe

 

Please let there be a universe mode

[Shaun2J 127]

Yeah the close ups during action in the videos look brutal.

[Guest The Beltster]

Hogan makes anything WWE-related better. Hogan doesnt matter anywhere else, he's a WWF guy.

[The Icon 152]

I agree with Belty Hogan has being with WCW and TNA but in my mind he is and always will be a WWF guy.

[Guest Jayfunk]

Only reason to buy this is the 30 years of mania i can't say i have played with any of the normal roster outside orton or taker the rest is pretty always meh who cares about say darren young? CAW and these gimmick things make it worth it not the existing roster

[Guest Ciaran The King]

How long has this game been in development?

The following is the rating information from the Entertainment Software Rating Board for the new WWE 2K14 video game:

 

RATING INFORMATION

 

WWE 2K14

 

Platform: PlayStation 3, Xbox 360

 

Rating Category: Teen Rating Symbol

 

Content Descriptors: Blood, Language, Suggestive Themes, Use of Alcohol, Violence

 

Other: Includes online features that may expose players to unrated user-generated content (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3)

 

Rating Summary: This is a wrestling simulation game in which players can select real-world competitors from the WWE roster, compete in matches, and progress through multiple storylines. Players perform a variety of wrestling moves (e.g., grapples, holds, throws), as well as punching and kicking attacks. Sledgehammers, chairs, and tables can also be used to strike opponents; blood sometimes appears on wrestlers’ faces. Some women are depicted in outfits that expose large amounts of cleavage; female wrestlers occasionally make provocative gestures (e.g., pelvic thrusts, wiggling their buttocks in front of opponents’ faces as a taunt). During the course of the game, a handful of sequences depict/reference alcohol: a wrestler wearing a “Drink Beer” shirt and spraying his opponents with a “beer truck” hose; a wrestler drinking from beer cans. One video clip briefly depicts the word “sh*t” on a fan’s sign, and a wrestler can be seen sticking out his middle fingers.

WWE 2K14 streamed a video showing off 30 Years of WrestleMania by giving us a sneak peak of the career mode with the complete segment for the WrestleMania VI bout between Hulk Hogan and The Ultimate Warrior.

 

[video=youtube;aqrN28oO4GE]

 

Beltmark will be over the moon that The Fink is doing the announcing, although JR & King doing the commentary (while understandable due to the recording side of things), does feel a bit odd.

[Guest The Beltster]

I love it. Shame they couldnt just use sound byte from the actual match commentary but thats nit picking and at least JR and King are using almost word for word commentary from that day. Hogan/Warrior was the greatest thing that ever happened. Over 3 months of wrestling perfection that will never be matched.

 

Shame they are using those damn WW logos too.

Every day this week, (starting from today), the official site is listing the matches for each era in the 30yrs of WrestleMania Mode. Today it was the matches from "Hulkamania Runs Wild".

 

• WrestleMania: Andre the Giant vs. Big John Studd (screenshot shows Andre with the bag of money)
  
• WrestleMania 2: WWE Champion Hulk Hogan vs. King Kong Bundy (screenshot is Hogan booting Bundy)
  
• WrestleMania III: Intercontinental Champion “Macho Man” Randy Savage vs. Ricky Steamboat (screenshot is Savage about to drop the elbow)
  
• WrestleMania III: WWE Champion Hulk Hogan vs. Andre the Giant (screenshot is Hogan dropping the leg on Andre)
  
• WrestleMania IV: “Macho Man” Randy Savage vs. Ted DiBiase (screenshot is Savage attempting to ax-handle DiBiase on the floor, but Andre getting in the way)
  
• WrestleMania V: WWE Champion “Macho Man” Randy Savage vs. Hulk Hogan (screenshot is Savage arguing with Liz on the floor while Hogan is leaning on the apron)
  
• WrestleMania VI: WWE Champion Hulk Hogan vs. Intercontinental Champion The Ultimate Warrior (screenshot is Hogan about to raise Warrior's hand after the match)
  
• WrestleMania VII: WWE Champion Sgt. Slaughter vs. Hulk Hogan (screenshot is Slaughter in the ring with a flag)
  
• WrestleMania VIII: WWE Champion Ric Flair vs. “Macho Man” Randy Savage (screenshot is Savage punching Flair from the mount while Liz looks on in the ring)
  
• WrestleMania IX: WWE Champion Bret “Hit Man” Hart vs. Yokozuna (screenshot is Yokozuna dropping a leg on Bret)

 

With one of the achievements / trophies referencing Hogan v Yoko from WMIX, I would assume their bout is going to be part of the Bret v Yoko match.

[Fletch 204]

Does the Streak mode sound like that old mode they had that was a massive endless gauntlet match?
