The neck, back, chest, arms, and other groupings have a number of selectable parts to choose and from. 2K17 retains this incredibly in-depth editing for the face, but streamlined customization of the body to selectable pre-sculpted parts. The detail that goes into crafting your character has traditionally been staggering with complete body sculpting and amazing work by the online community. Of course one of the biggest draws for any WWE game is creating your own Superstar or Diva. The pause screen does displays a simple button layout but it’s clearly not the same from hands on training. I found myself struggling to pull off intricate aspects of the game with only my memory to draw from.
However, WWE 2K17 lacks a proper tutorial mode (previous entries would attach rewards to completing complex tutorials).
#RHINO 6 FOR MAC SERIES#
There has been a logical progression in the controls of the WWE series to the point that – for an experienced gamer – the button mapping makes total sense. “Characters are unbelievably realistic in both fine detail and how they move, and the stamina system makes sense”
For new player, however, it will take a while before you feel like a WWE Superstar, even on Easy. For those who have played the last few games it’s easy to pick up and play. Characters are unbelievably realistic in both fine detail and how they move, and the stamina system makes sense: you can’t simply sprint everywhere and powerbomb to your heart’s content. At the same time, that might not be a bad thing: the WWE series has played with a lot of options in the past and it seems they’ve narrowed in on the “if it aint broke, don’t fix it” formula.
There are upgrades and polishes to show that this is the newest model but there doesn’t feel like any new ground-breaking features. While the latest title in the series has some incredible improvements as it becomes more and more real, it drops a folding table on its own foot as it pulls away from some of the unrealism fans have come to love and enjoy.įrom a gameplay standpoint, anyone who has played the WWE series in the past won’t find much in the way of new content: controls, character motion, audio effects, and graphics are what you would expect from a long running sports series. A few years back, the WWE series shifted its focus to being a simulation title rather than its unique blend of sports and arcade. While many WWE games have offered you the chance to become the champ yourself, WWE 2K17 feels like it’s the first time you are truly earning it. Most people around my age remember seeing Hulk Hogan, The Ultimate Warrior, Andre the Giant, and so many classic wrestlers fighting it out for the Heavyweight Championship and watched them with admiration.
