20 Reasons The Year's Biggest Video Games Might Suck

11. WWE 2K16 Fails To Learn From 2K15's Mistakes

Release Date: October The Hype: After the growing pains of Visual Concepts and Yuke's collaboration on the critically-divisive WWE 2K15, they'll be hoping to make a major splash with this year's offering. Though practically nothing is known about what they'll be serving up, with resources devoted fully to current-gen technology now, the result should hopefully be a much more cohesive effort. Why It Might Suck: WWE 2K15 was the worst-reviewed WWE game in years and years, a major disappointment given the potential as 2K's first "proper" WWE game. It just felt like Yuke's were creatively burned out, while a lot of the game's aspects were severely scaled back, and despite the leap to current-gen consoles, the graphics still looked a few years behind where most other sports games were at. A lot of gamers felt burned by 2K15, and as such it's going to be difficult to regain that trust for 2K16. Hopefully last year's screw up was just a one-off, but if it's a sign of things moving forward, than there's not much reason to own 2K16. Do yourself a favour and wait for the reviews.
