Does anyone who has this game actually enjoy it? I've loved these games in the past, but in the clips I've seen this year the PS4 version is a bit disappointing aesthetically. And for the love of God, how can they have the balls to charge that much for DLC???

As a guy who hasn't purchased a wrestling game since 2011, I can honestly say that the in-ring action is the best it's been in years. The stamina system does a great job of mimicking the pace of real-life matches (though it is not without it's quirks) and the first time you hit a Sweet Chin Music, collapse to the mat and have to crawl to your opponent to get the cover it is nothing short of amazing.

Saying that though, the lack of match variety, and general scaling back of previously present features is a sore point. The Career Mode that seemed to have promise prior to release has almost zero depth, and feels like you're just grinding from one match to another with little to no context. Universe Mode has appeal, but it only really comes into its own if you micro-manage the hell out of it and book everything as you want it.

Even with those negatives, I do not regret a single penny I spent on WWE 2K15. I got it during the Holiday Sale at a discount price (season pass included) and it's always fun to play, at least for me. As a fan who was disgruntled with the product for years, I'm pleased with my purchase.

I love it. Its a bit bare, but honestly, its just as fun as any previous version has been.

# 4 IowaAJ @ 02/03/15 11:20 AM

Yeah I really enjoy the game. Not as much as I thought I would admittedly, but the right match with the right wrestlers in the right situation and you can get spectacular results.

I was like you, I haven't played a wrestling game in probably 6 years and I was itching for one so I bought it for $35 of Kijiji and I've had tons of fun with it. Only draw back is the career mode. I was hoping for a season mode like the old Smack down days but it's nothing like that and pretty boring in general. The Showcases are very fun though.

Can confirm it's up on PS4. Playing right now, the new RKO animation is pure sex... Comes with a stalking pin afterwards.

No clue. I was wondering the same thing, but it says 8 hours. Hoping it was just really busy or something. Gonna try again.

But just turned my PS4 back on an its installed.

# 17 almostbobsaget @ 02/04/15 09:16 AM

After looking over the models in this DLC, I've come to the realization that they need to scale back the detail of the character models completely. The full body scan models, as always, look incredible but the minute you put models that didn't benefit from a full scan or past hairstyles have to be applied they look cartoony.

See: Alberto Del Rio from DLC, Edge's hair, DDP's hair.

# 18 PhiPsi1 @ 02/04/15 10:57 AM

Wow .... $9.99 for a DLC ... That is getting a bit steep especially if you want all of the DLCs. In any case, looks like some awesome showcases especially w/ Christian!

I would've liked more matches. Only 9.

Christian's model looks a lot better this year though
