BaneTheDestroyer here it is, bro.
Title: WWE 2k14 System: Playstation 3 Rating: 6/10 Review: WWE 2k14, yet another disappointing installment in WWE's video game franchise. Well, I couldn't say disappointing; I expected just about what we got. Yet another stale time traveling mode I couldn't give a single fuck about. In WWE 2k14, the main marketing grip of the game was the 30 Years of WrestleMania campaign mode where you relieved the biggest WrestleMania matches from WrestleMania I to Wrestlemania XXIX. From the age of Hulk Hogan, to the New Generation era, to the Attitude Era, through the Ruthless Aggression era and finally the modern day portion called the Universe Era, you play as some of the biggest names the company has ever seen. Along with the 30 Years of WrestleMania mode, the game featured numerous classic modes such create a superstar, superstar threads, Universe Mode and more. The best mode the game has to offer is Universe Mode which was improved decently well from the previous installment, with the most memorable addition being rivalries (which ended up being extremely lazy; more on that later). The gameplay really wasn't that greatly improved from last year, in my opinion, which is rather disappointing, however I won't deny the gameplay is solid and pretty good. I just would've liked to see a whole heap of new animations. I don't see why I'm still seeing some animations that are probably from Smackdown vs Raw 2010/2011. I'm not asking them to delete moves, but instead update them with fresh mocap or smoother animation and replace them. Awkward, stiff animations shouldn't even be a thing at this point. In terms of the 30 Years of WrestleMania mode, I'm 100% - 100% - against these whole time traveling story modes. I find no interest in doing something that history has done already. I want a new, freshly created career mode. The Universe Mode is taking its sweet time to evolve, which is starting to annoy me. What I'd like to see them do is turn the Universe Mode into an advanced GM Mode. Taking out GM Mode is probably their biggest mistake, in my personal opinion. Rivalries were poorly done and very restrictive. They could only be started the first week of a new month which could cause for a hiccup should you want your Money in the Bank winner to cash in during one of the random weeks. There should have been an option to have trios feuding with trios and triple threat scenarios to select from. The actual "storyline", if you could call it that, was extremely lazy most usually consisted of having the people in the rivalry face off week after week with a boring cutscene before or after the match. The moment I can watch through the weekly shows without feeling like I'm seeing the same God forsaken thing over and over, and that rivalries aren't as lazily and poorly done is the moment I will say Universe is a good, solid mode. In the condition it's in, it's not even close. Another really, really big pet peeve with this mode is that if one of your champions isn't placed in a rivalry for the month, he won't defend the title at all. Instead, they'll have a random additional match that could easily have been replaced with that title match. It's just plain dumb. This game has a lot, and I mean a lot flaws, but it's still an okay game. But that's it. Okay. No more than that. I can't say I'm disappointed, however. This is what I expect from the series at this point. I can't say I'm too excited over 2k15, either, whether we're under a new developer or not. Lets hope 2k can prove me wrong.

This is my review of Battleblock Theatre. But i don't want to battle blocks in a theatre.
--------------------------------------------
Story: (MAJOR SPOILERS trough whole review)
--------------------------------------------
I will not write the story down for a 4th time. I'm happy i could save all this. Just search "Battleblock Theatre story" on Google, and you can read through it. I just don't feel like writing it down another 10 times.
Now, i think this is still a better story than"go save the princess who's always in another castle, from the giant lizard-dragon-turtle thing"
Now let's go.. But Hungarian growing facial heared boy... -man. Isn't there something you forgot? Well yes, i forgot to stay sane... Not that. Aren't you forgeting about a companion that's always there? Again, i'm currently not in my sane state of mind. That's why you're here. I'm not talking about myself. I'm talking about a companion in-game. Oh, so him? Yes, him. Okay, so there's an announcer that will make you go crazy... this whole game will make you go crazy... i mean, just look at me. I'm talking to myself! I can still hear you. Well no shit Sherlock... Anyways, with that being over, let's go.. Wait a minute! WHAT THE HELL IS IT? Can i say it? *sigh* okay, fine. You say it. Let's go to the ratings!
+Good story
-You literally go insane, for nothing. N-O-T-H-I-N-G. Nothing. At least now you have a friend Just shut up already... wow, i'm annoying.
5/10
---------------------------------------------
Gameplay:
The controls are easy to learn, the bonus modes are a pain in the donkey, (especially vs CPU), and you will rage. A lot. Now ratings.
+As said before, easy to learn controls
+Cool minigames
-The CPU is an asshole.
7/10
----------------------------------------------
Graphics:
+Good graphs, if you like cartoon-like graphics.
10/10
-----------------------------------------------
Soundtrack:
It's good. Especially the time trials'. Do i even need to rate this one?
10/10
-----------------------------------------------
The Struggle/Difficulty:
THE STRUGGLE WAS NEVER THIS REAL! And i liked me some good platforming action. Did i get it? Yes. Were there annyoning levels? Ask "The Vault: Final Level 2-2". (this means yes)
Now, i may've nearly rage quit the game, but i didn't. Why? Because i expected that i'll save Hatty, and everything's going to be alright. And what did i get for the pain and suffering? This guy.. Hello. i mean, if i can't put up with only one me, then a second crazier personality will definietly help... Hey, don't talk about me like that. I hear everything. Well, you don't say. Could we just go to the ratings please?
+A very challenging game that sucks you in, and only let's go when you want to kill every one of the level designers...
-The "I want to kill all of the level designers" feeling isn't natural.
5/10
------------------------------------------------
Level Design:
Pure. Genius. Man, you've gone apeshit crazy. Weren't you just saying that you wanted to kill the level designers? Yes. I "wanted". But after all, what they've made is pure genius. Even if it's being annoying. Ratings, please.
10/10
-------------------------------------------------
Currency:
Gems and Yarns. These are the two things you want to get. There are 7(sometimes 6) gems in a level, and only one yarn. You can buy your friends (or prisoners if you ask the game) with gems (10 at first, 15 after a while.) and you can buy a weapon with 5 yarns. It's simple. I didn't find anything bad in it. Ratings.
10/10
-------------------------------------------------
Accesories/Characters that will help you/will be against you:
For accescories, we got the already said weapons, wings, a helicopter backpack, and a jetpack. A duck, a pig, and (if you get that weapon,then) a frog wil help you on your journey. While the cat-enemies, the robot, the alien cat, and the hungry beast willl be your enemy. (just naming that few, you can actually kill.)
+Good helping characters. The duck helped my a lot. It's pretty retarded, but if you help him to make his way to a destination, he will be your second best friend. (after the pig)
+Good villains
-The robot only stayes dead for a few moments.
7/10
--------------------------------------------------
Completionist Bonus:
Avatar clothes. Sorry, you get no rating for that.
--------------------------------------------------
And now: Marylin, the female Merlin:
And now i shall read the glitches. Let me see... Does she have... you know.. some kind of mental problem? Honestly, we're talking? You are in my head..
I found it! If can make it properly, you can jump on edges of death traps without being killed. E.g.: Spikes, Lasers.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay, thanks Marylin. And now, Conclusion:
The game is good. If you want a game that's like the old platformer games, this is a must have. 6.8/10
And this get's my completionist rating of: Rage it!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
ˇ
Complete it, Play it, Try it, Rage it, Kick it, Burn it, Send it to JoWood
^
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
If i missed something, i'll update the review.
Cast:
ati "The Hero" - White
aTH (Crazy Personality) - Green
