I made a point with the THPS 1 + 2 remakes about games being unrealistic and fun The point was that you have to be unrealistic in nature in some way or another, but also be fun in the process. You are better off button mashing, but even that looks awful and powerless. There is a lack of precision and purpose in everything you do. There is enough precision you can pull of just about anything, but you can learn it up quickly enough without too much effort as well.ĢK Battlegrounds is none of that. 2K16 & 17 are still the best games if you want pure wrestling like actual wrestling that you see on TV weekly. ![]() Over the years, the more realistic 2K15-20 games got to a point of great detail and precision, all the while also holding a bit of fun in the games. Conversely you want to do things like throwing someone back-first to the ground, your knee, or onto a weapon. For example, either yanking someone’s neck for a Stunner, RKO, or headlock. A fluidity to movement and an ability to pull off ridiculously dangerous stunts that could kill if done unprofessionally. What you want in a wrestling game, arcade-like or not, is smoothness. I could honestly see that being the case. In addition to that, being told to “please wait” a lot, the visual style (if you can call it that), awful menus, and flashy but ineffective fighting, some (including myself) have speculated privately and openly if 2K Battlegrounds was mothballed for mobile and brought out following last year’s disaster. Others saw the scratchy WWE logo on the turnbuckles, a logo that was retired 2013-2014. For some, they were heralding the return of the WWE All Stars arcade-like wrestling games of days on by. WWE 2K Battlegrounds is not The Simpsons Wrestling, at least you could tell who was who back in 2001. I know what makes a good one, and I know why The Simpsons Wrestling is considered by many as one of the worst games of all time. If I went looking hard enough, I could probably find my copy of The Simpsons Wrestling A god awful game, but it proves my point as someone who’s been playing these games for a while. Behind me in my office, I have three generations of wrestling games of all different kinds, with some more preferable than others. I also grew up with it through videotapes yes, I’m that old, and I still have the RAW 10th Anniversary tape, games, DVDs, and books. I, like so many others, grew up with wrestling on the TV. I love the stupidity, though I demonize the stereotypes that have carried over into WWE. Wrestling is a stupid thing, built from the dying days of the carnival featuring stereotypes of every kind, but I love it nonetheless. Every one of those arguments stands on, to mix up my metaphors here, a pedestal so flimsy you could knock it over with a gentle sigh. ![]() This is either based on a single wrestler being perfect, a promotion being the best, or specific eras of wrestling being any greater than others.
