At least with that you can get wrestling collection harking back to the days world of sport wrestling via the Steam workshop. If there is draw back for me it is the fact the game only has two weight divisions (junior & Heavy) and can handle pretty well 8 wrestlers in the ring at a time, but the amount of workshop items available more than makes up for that plus some interesting fight modes include gruesome fighting (which is the MMA)
I have WWE2K17 haven't played it for a while but feel the one thing that wasn't working well for me was the submission controls found that control a hard one & frustrating to get right to escape & I doubt it is now better in the new game. the first wrestling game I ever played was rock n wrestle on the old Spectrum & even that was hard!! But tbh I don't think I played another wrestling game until I played THQ's 'RAW' & a little 'Celebrity Death Match' which I felt then RAW was one of the best wrestling games around for PC (and you could create your own wrestlers too then, don't think you could with 'CDM') until 2K came along. I'd very much like to see 2K delve into MMA territory and give EA's UFC title a good run for their money, if they can get the mechanics right I reckon they could come with a suitable PC alternative.

Talking about the best wrestling games (ever) brings back some fond memories but heres a list of my top 5;

1)No Mercy (N64)
2)Smackdown; Here Comes The Pain (PS)
3)Wrestlemania 2000 (N64)
4)Smackdown vs Raw 2006 (PS)
5) Wrestlefest (Arcade)
And a big shout out for Def Jam; Vendetta & Fight for New York as well.

For me games maker AKI which made a lot of early wrestling games like No Mercy, Wrestlemania 2000 & The Def Jam games created the perfect essence of wrestling games that the 2K's makers Yukes can't seem to grasp the nettle of.
The 2K wrestling games put the more glitz & glamour with the presentations, the wrestler likenesses & the ring entrances but the actual core wrestling in the games are pretty poor & often become chore like to play compared to the previous games I've mentioned.2K18 has continued on with last 2 games with the horrible endless move reversal system which makes matches a slog to play & make online matches horrible to play as well.


For anyone who still has 2K17 in my opinion I wouldn't bother getting 2k18 a game that just doesn't do anything different than last years version (just go onto the online CAW & download the newer wrestlers other people have created to update the roster)
As I mentioned in my review when playing 2K18 in Royal Rumble mode the graphics are as glitchy as hell with terrible slowdown & plays like a broken game.

Call of Duty : Black Ops/Kino Der Toten on the Xbox 360

Always great fun taking out hordes of zombies in the creepy theatre, I don't know if anyone else has this problem but when I teleport into the projection booth sometimes my game crashes when you lob a grenade down or attempt to reload.Quite frustrating especially when you've built up money to modify your weapons in the pack a punch machine.
