WWE 2K17 is the latest entry in the annual franchise and is a bit of a mixed bag. There is a MyCareer mode that you can sink your teeth into where you start at the WWE Performance Center and work your way up the ranks.

doesn't make any big, drastic changes, but its smart gameplay tweaks have revitalized match types I'd ignored the past few years. I really miss 2K Showcase, and 2K17 is still weak in areas that I feel should have been shored up by now, but its excellent combat, and generous amounts of customization...

I'll admit that when I was younger, I absolutely loved watching pro wrestling. The pageantry, the athleticism, the larger-than-life characters; it was hard not to be completely drawn in by it all.
