The LAST Ever PS3/Xbox 360 WWE 2K Game

[@MineplexVLOfficial]

I was one of those kids who were less fortunate and was lucky enough to have an Xbox 360 while all my friends had next gen consoles. I made the most of this game. CAWS and Universe mode. I remember being really in love with NXT around the time and having Johnny Gargano and Ciampa having a never ending feud in Universe which kept brining me back to the game. Loved this game.

[@alec2000]

It’s crazy seeing Yuke’s going this far with their WWE games for last gen. It’s absolutely mind blowing seeing how much more content these versions had compared to the newer versions. From the match types, match customization, and overall, less restrictive gameplay, it’s crazy that all of this wasn’t shared with the newer versions. These games could’ve been better with the assets of last gen. Such a shame this never materialized. It’s fun to think about what could’ve been.

[@willg1088]

The graphic model was good too

[@nehemiahpouncey3607]

The modes are always missing from The last gen versions.

[@tyratooOP]

Well I mean. The game is literally 2K14's code but with other stuff on top multiple years in a row and remember it was still the same price as the regular 2K Xbox One and PS4 games. In hindsight it looks cool but let's not act like they were adding a bunch of stuff every year. And Yuke's engine wasn't compatible to drag onto the next gen at the time so code and things needed to be reworked at like the last minute which is why 2K15 had less than it was going to and 16 was way better.

It's worth noting that Ps3/360 WWE 2K17 did get all the DLC and the Hall of Fame DLC Showcase that the next-gen version did.

I was still playing this game earlier this year until i finally made the jump to 2K23 and honestly i kinda miss it. I had 12 and some svr games but the roster in 2K17 was just so fun. The Universe mode felt way easier to play and enjoy and that's why I had a really hard time adjusting to '23. The match customization was also a really huge disappointment for me. I was still excited for run-ins until I realized it couldn't be done in universe mode (without rivalry cutscenes). All in all I do enjoy '23 but '17 on the PS3 was just a stupidly fun time and I loved it.

[@TheViper4Life]

I didn't get my PS4 until 2015, so I had played 2K15 on PS3...it was literally just a reskin and a roster update and it sounds like 2K16 and 17 were the same. It's easy to look back now and say the last gen was "missing features", but at the time, making that transition to the next gen version felt imperative. I think NOW it doesn't matter as much when you consider the PS4/XB1 versions of 2K22 and 23 (and likely 24), really aren't all that different from the PS5/XSX versions.

[@nehemiahpouncey3607]

Last gen always gets it the worse. THQ did the same thing like Svr 2008- 2011.

[@thestranger9608]

The 360/ps3 versions of 15-17 just feel like roster updates of 13 or 14.

If all you do is a roster reskin and the game is still good that’s how you know you made a masterpiece (talking about 2k14 lol)

[@andrewnelson5286]

Still have this game, not the best WWE 2k game of PS3/Xbox imo but it was still really good in some aspects. The moves/animations really improved in terms of realism, especially the high-flying moves. When you jumped in the air to perform a high-flying move, you actually got a realistic looking dive with momentum behind it, rather than just momentum that resembled a bowling ball. The ultimate downside for me is that the finishes are not that powerful, in fact, signatures and normal moves are more powerful than finishers. You’ll have to try much more harder to kick out of a signature or normal move rather than a finisher. The crowd also felt a bit dead when wrestling. They wouldn’t react like they would in WWE 2k14. You can hardly hear them at times. Ring announcers would announce the weight of a person straight after they announce the championship. E.g. “Introducing the challenger (who is actually the champion) from West Newbury Massachusetts, he is the WWE champion, 250 pounds, John Cenaaaa.” It wasn’t announced the way it should have been. Winning animations were very limited for most superstars. Overall it is still enjoyable. Maybe it’s just me experiencing these problems.

[@YuriFan6000Mario]

I had version of the game, this comment is gonna be me talking about my experience/story with this game, I don't know if anyone will read this but if you are reading this then thank you, I will now start. I never had an Xbox One, so, on Christmas 2016, me and my brother got the Xbox 360 version of this game, this was the main/most recent WWE game we had for many years, for a few years I didn't even know the versions were different, I thought it was just better graphics on Xbox One/PS4, we bought all the DLC in I think 2018 or '17. I remember when my brother told me that some match types like inferno, special guest referee and backstage brawl were only in the PS3/360 version, that is a thing I love about this version, I also like that it has the same creation suite as WWE 2K14, also, I loved the Infinite Finisher feature in the last gen version. because in this version, you made custom logos in the paint tool in the same instead of using an online image importer, whenever I would see clips of like 2K19 of AEW Arenas, I always thought the Logos were modded in bc they looked so good, until I saw a video of the PS4/One/PC version of 2K17 and I saw the guy putting the tribute to the troops logo in the arena and saying he downloaded it from community creations, I used to think it was a PC only feature because I didn't know that image importing was a thing in the games until I got an Xbox Series X and WWE 2K20 in 2022. also, even tho all versions of the game have the same entrances, one of them is missing in the 360 version, one of the generic trio team entrances (Generic Trio 3) just isn't in the last gen version but is in the next gen version, also, Generic Trio 2 (Evolution's Entrance) is in all versions but has a mistake in the last gen version, the wrestler in the middle holds a water bottle (like Triple H) but in the last gen version it just isn't there, and it isn't like they did a closed hand, the hand is just holding something invisible and it's so weird, I guess they were too lazy to add a water bottle model to the game. thank you for reading.

[@nicholaspeppercorn2737]

One overlooked feature the PS3 version has that (in my opinion) is critical is being able to use custom soundtrack to your created characters & factions. This feature should have never left the game. With the mentioned match types (and championships that were taken out of the PS4 version), the last gen version (in my opinion) is superior to the newer gen version. I still play my PS3 2K17 to this day. 2K14 is still tops, 2K17 last gen gets the Silver Medal.🥈

To me I feel 2k17 on last gen was way better than 2k18 due to exclusive match types and the fact you had more freedom in universe mode it’s not as good as 2k16 on last gen or even 17 on next gen but it was a decent end to these games on ps3 and Xbox 360 with the matches and roster

My only knock is the graphics but even then I like the graphics due to familiarity and nostalgia cause my first ever wrestling game was SvR 2010 on the Wii and my last wrestling game before 2K22 on PS4 was 2K15 on the 360 so I grew up with the game looking like that.

[@johnarvanitis9328]

This game wasn't just a reskin of 2k14. If it was just that it would be the best game in the series hands down. It had an amazing roster with tons of Attitude Era and golden era legends + current age superstars, great match types and customization, graphically the wrestler models looked on par with next gen because they used the next gen scans on last gen, there was a ton of new animations and moves, all directly ported from next gen. And that was all that was good about it. Universe mode while better than 2k14's on paper, in reality it was super glitchy and never worked as intended, minor shows had zero cutscenes compared to 2k14 which always had random cutscenes on minor shows. Gameplay was much worse because of buggy AI that acted stupidly and didn't produce a fun match to play or watch, even with slider customization, compared to 2k14's amazing AI right out of the box, had some of my most amazing matches ever on 2k14 with no slider adjustments and normal difficulty, the AI just played great. They also removed the custom soundtrack feature and last but not least, the game was unplayable without the accelerator DLC because of 2 factors. 1) The game lacked a showcase mode from which you traditionally unlocked everything by just playing through it, so instead they made the game an unbelievable grind to unlock arenas and superstars. With some of them requiring you to play 200+ matches to unlock. 2) Superstar attributes are a mess by default in this game. They used the next gen attributes which don't translate well on this engine. All they had to do was re-skin 2k14 and it would be as amazing as ever. Instead they managed to fuck it up somehow by delivering a re-skinned glitchy version of 2k14.

@@Y2Jerms It is entirely possible. It's just that, like Yukes & THQ before them, 2K has a nasty habit of taking a few steps forward before removing something else that was in an earlier installment that shouldn't have been taken away.

@@TherealRNOwwfpooh do you know how much memory the game would have? Again, for a gane with EVERYTHING? It would take several years to put out. The way wwe is, there has to be some sacrifice with adding new match types AND superstars. It's common sense that they can't just add on top of what's already there. Then you'd get slow downs and drops in quality. And if 2k ever dropped in quality, people would shit bricks and start a "boycott" trend on them.
