I buy this every year and I felt it was worth it to buy the deluxe this go around so I didn't have to mess with the extra content and DLC's that I get sucked into buying every year. So buying it upfront with the Gamers Unlock brings this down a little better. This game has great graphics and good controls. It has a very big roster. The difficulty feels much harder even on the easier levels. The fun factor is there as always. The royal rumble is a lot of fun and feels more realistic although when 8 people get into it its hard to stay focused on your opponent. If you like the past games of this franchise this is no different!

This game and series has the potential to be GREAT, although currently it’s just a step above average. I think 2K sports is in such a big hurry to put this franchise out every year that they cut corners. Those are VERY apparent in this edition of the franchise. The graphics are a step above 2K17 however there are times when the characters on the screen develop a “Stretch Armstrong” characteristic rendering the rest of the match obsolete. The commentary is a step above however Saxton and Cole pretty much repeat the same phrases no matter who is in the actual match. Load times are definitely longer than previous editions. Hopefully the glitches are addressed in future patches which have been rather frequent since the release. I won’t hold my breath though. Overall it’s a time killer for a true WWE fan and is what it is. I don’t HATE it, just can’t be an impatient person or HARDCORE complainer with this one. You’ll go insane.

I will be honest, being a wrestling fan makes it easier to like the game. it does have some flaws. but I'm able to look past it. Some of the coloring is off, and computer a.i will act kind of weird during the match. but i still like this game

Superb graphics, difficult to learn all of the controls. The graphic, music and feel of the game makes it like you are really involved in WWE events. But, the controls for me are very difficult to learn, with all of the buttons, triggers, analog stick stuff. I end up trying to think what move I want to do, and by the time I remember the control buttons and thumbsticks to move, the other wrestling is beating me up! But I won't hold it against the game that I am too dumb or not fast enough to learn all of the controls. I remember back in the Nintendo/Sega gaming console days when learning the joystick controls for a game was easy!

THE BEST WWE GAME TO DATE. Graphics and controls are as fluid as ever. Looks realistic and is even more fun with the how customizable everything is.
