When is someone going to be around to record when two people are playing that actually know how to play? Jeez.

intrigued by the new chain grappling system they implemented. Not much else to gain from this video. Graphics and movement look good, but these two youngsters didn't have enough know how or patience to get to the good moves.

# 3 Reed1417 @ 08/15/14 09:21 AM

I'm glad this shows more of the chain grappling. I can't wait to see more!

# 4 Simple Mathematics @ 08/15/14 09:22 AM

My dog can play better than those two.

However, I liked the one part when Cena did a suplex and they walked away from the ropes first before he did the move. I always felt it looked bad when a move would hit the "invisible wall" by the ropes.

Graphics look really well done which was expected but unless an actual review site or something along those lines does a video on gameplay it's going to be hard to see what the game really has to offer. The people never read the tips on the screen that tell them what to do so it just boils down to a button mashing competition.

The downside to the videos has been the constant button mashing we have seen in all the gameplay. While you can see new animations its hard to tell how fluent the game play is because its people just hitting the strike button over and over. Also I just wanna note that this forum is being much more optimistic about the game than the people on the Wrestling Observer Board. Over there its just well its the same game yet again crap when the only footage we have seen is from people just button mashing and not playing the game properly.

That's because:

OS: Sports gamers that are WWE fans
WO: WWE fans that play video games

We can spot out differences better than fans. Also (and I understand there's an upgrade in systems between the two), but to say this is the same game as 2K14 is just embarrassing, even with awful people at the controls.

I think the My Player/My Wrestler mode is going to blow this game out of the water, and for me, the graphical upgrades may keep me much more interested in the Universe mode

# 8 Reed1417 @ 08/15/14 10:14 AM

Depending on the updates to Universe mode and how the MyCareer mode works in this game I have a feeling I will be spending a lot of time with this game!! After I play through the 2k Showcase mode first of course hahaha. Back on topic though, the people playing the game doesn't bother me much because this is what I expected to see haha, I know we all play the game like it's meant to be so no worries.

# 9 LBzrule @ 08/15/14 10:52 AM

Ehhh they were kids just having fun. So you are not going to get a calculated strategic battle. But the game looks great.

I do know people on the WO Forums that do play a lot of games and aren't just Wrestling fans but I do see the point you are making. None he less its clear changes have been made to the game and hopefully when one of the gaming sites get proper gameplay videos and not these hand cam videos with button mashing we get a better understanding of the changes.

If the My Player is as scripted and full of BS that the NBA2K14 one was then I don't think it will be good. I have high hopes for it because I want a great WWE career mode that rivals the ones from Shut Your Mouth and Here Comes The Pain.

Im thinking of getting this before I even get NBA2K we still have until October for that to change but Im feeling much more pumped for this than I am NBA2K15 even with the new MyLeague mode they added this year.

Yeah, I never take that into account. We'll get more videos later on, but I mostly look at the graphics and actions like we do. So far, all of the sports games have me way too psyched

I think a lot of these companies have gotten better in their second go-around with the new systems (or first in the WWE case). I normally just get the big 3 sports, but Madden, NBA 2K15, WWE 2K15, FIFA and NHL are all in my queue.

One thing I advise you to do: Don't list out the games you are planning to buy the rest of the year and early next year. It makes you somewhat depressed on how much money you will be spending lol

# 13 Reed1417 @ 08/15/14 11:26 AM

Lmao I'll try not to do that haha. I have plenty of games on my list for the winter season so believe me I know that feeling!

# 14 methodinchaos @ 08/15/14 11:39 AM

Where is JBL? Only a 2 man announcing team?

# 15 Gramps91 @ 08/15/14 11:55 AM

The tie up mini game still worries me. Aside from that though it looks pretty solid with one or two weird animations.

# 16 DBMcGee3 @ 08/15/14 11:56 AM

It looks a little clunky, and I'm not sure what to make of the grapple system without actually trying it. In fairness, these guys obviously had no idea how to play, so I'll refrain from judgement until I see more. The graphics are a bit underwhelming compared to my expectations for a 2k game on PS4.

It was confirmed months ago that it would only be Lawler and Cole

# 18 willz1985 @ 08/15/14 02:29 PM

love the choice of characters they went for in that demo

Cena, Orton Cesaro......and Goldust

# 19 SoxFan01605 @ 08/15/14 03:03 PM

It's tough to say for sure without having a controller in hand, but it really looks as though there is more weight to the moves and the wrestlers. Hopefully this isn't just a visual thing, but is noticeable in the feel of the game. Add in some form of weight detection, and those changes alone would be a huge step forward in gameplay.

# 20 EAGLESFAN10 @ 08/15/14 05:11 PM

The way Cena went for the pin at the end was so realistic but the way he won was so damn lame
