WWE 2K18: 7 Biggest Disappointments

7. Hair

No, we won't stop whinging about this until 2K do something about it. Think of the big-budget releases you've been playing this year on PS4 and Xbox One, then compare them to WWE 2K18. It's an absolute sin that Marguerite Barker, a possessed woman surrounded by flies and filth in Resident Evil 7, has better hair than Carmella.

The WWE star looks like she hasn't washed her locks in a few weeks, and that's just inexcusable. Hair just doesn't look real in 2K18. In fact, it has much the same animation as it did when SmackDown 2: Know Your Role was launched on PSOne in November 2000. That's almost 17 years ago. What are you playing at, 2K?

Why does Carmella look like her face has been mapped onto Christian's head from that game? Some other characters suffer from the same problem, and it seems to be a game-wide issue when models have longer hair. If other titles can get it right, then so should this one.
