#SimNation Meets WWE2K

(It's been a long time, a long time coming; But I know a change gonna come. Oh yes it will!)

The Pro Wrestling gaming scene has been disappointing to many wrestling fans over the past decade. Depending on who you ask, it appears that many wrestling fans are still labeling "WWF No Mercy" as the last great wrestling game they owned. Newsflash: That game was released in 2000. Somewhere along the way there was a disconnect between the fans and the developers.

I have always respected the developers at 2KSports for their ability to bring a respectable amount realism to their sports titles. As a long time NBA 2K and Pro Wrestling fan, I felt a great deal of excitement when I discovered that 2KSports obtained the WWE licence.

Also being a member of #SimNation, I hope this blog can be used to show WWE 2K developers that fans would appreciate more realistic wrestling games in the immediate future. I feel that sports games are moving into the direction of realism and pro wrestling games should follow suit. Hopefully the days of Pro Wrestling games being created, developed, and played like fighting games are over since 2K Sports has taken over reigns.

This blog will be used to post ideas, suggestions, and issues that have plagued the more recent games of the genre. 

If you have any ideas for future blog entries feel free to leave a comment.

Until then; "Wrestling games aren't fighting games."
