"You can only release a game once", etc. Not too concerned.

Would be nice for 2K to throw us a bone with some gameplay videos, creation suite details, Universe mode details, the rest of the roster, and/or MyCareer mode details in the meantime.

Doubt it since last-gen consoles are still releasing on schedule. Couldn't imagine what it could be since you need like a month to make the game "Go Gold" I believe? I'm still mad regardless though. lol

Kinda expected this to happen honestly. I doubt the CM Punk issue is hindering it, but who knows, maybe it is. Hopefully its to get the kinks worked out and make the next gen debut even better than anticipated. But, now that WWE 2k15 AND GTA V are dropping on next gen the same day, I may have to tell my wife I won't be seeing her until after the New Year.

This, unless the rivalry thing isn't in the PS3 or 360 versions. Also, they got very close to the gold deadline before delaying it.

I would imagine it has to be one thing that they want to fine-tune because that seems like a very short delay of only 3 weeks if it's a game issue

CM Punk lawsuit could be the reason because of the Showcase feature for the XboxONE and PS4. Probably has something to do with him getting more money cause its a major feature. Who knows....

Where's the outcry for this delay? Live gets delayed for the same amount of time and people act like the series is dead.

# 8 Shadojoker @ 09/16/14 11:54 AM

2K is pulling a EA Sports..very surprised and not happy!

Horrible comparison because of Live's history. Live has cancelled two games and is delaying this one. WWE doesnt have that history.

Pulling a EA Sports? If this was EA Sports, they'd just release WWE 2K14 with the WWE 2K15 logo and new WWE logo in the game and then charge full price.

I'm hoping the delay is because they were able to come to an agreement with CM Punk and actually have him scanned for the game and need time to implement the full body scan into the game.

Hate that its delayed as I'm really looking forward to playing it, but if it means a better overall experience with the game then I'm all for it.

Much rather them delay the game to polish or fix known issues that can be quickly fixed, rather than push the game when its not ready.

Besides, I still have plenty of other games to hold me over til it drops.

# 15 TheCitizen @ 09/16/14 12:56 PM

This is really ridiculous. Not only has 2k not shown nearly as much gameplay, but the amount of details they've released surrounding new modes have been extremely scarce. I'm not saying release everything 2 months before the release, but at least give us something worth talking about. Now this delay happens. I'm not happy but I hope the delay helps them make a better product. If you're gonna have a delay, you might as well try to improve the product as much as possible during that time, right?

# 16 ksolo12 @ 09/16/14 01:05 PM

I wonder if this delay will hurt sales as they are now releasing on the same day as GTA V on next Gen.

Games can go gold as late as a week or two before release. Doesn't take too long to mass produce and ship the finished product. For example, Forza Horizon 2 went gold yesterday and it comes out in 2 weeks.

# 18 Reed1417 @ 09/16/14 01:40 PM

As much as I'm excited for this game I'm willing to wait. Just makes for a better game in the end. Just need more info about the game always.

Reed is comin' atcha!!

Doubt it will hurt it too badly, if people want it they will get it.
