I realize some people will and some see no point. I am usually one of those that doesn't see the sense in getting the same game for 2 consoles, but this year I am going to. Here is what made me decide and I wanted to get others views on this as well.

 

  • I am not sure if I will like the new stamina system as some that played the game said it wasn't great and others loved it. Since last gen doesn't appear to have the stamina system if I don't like it at least I have the last gen version
  • Seems like every next gen game I get, while it looks and plays better than last gen, it is always missing things that the last gen still has. In this case custom soundtrack (which wasn't make or break for me) and the strong possibility of a limited creation suite. I recently bought NHL 15 (which was missing a TON of content last gen has; some have been patched in and others wont be added this year) and even a few modes in NBA 2K15 will be missing on current gen that last gen will have.
  • Last gen has textured caws that look as good as in game models.
  • It worries me a bit that the current gen got pushed back and there has been basically zero seen of the gameplay besides shaky cam video from gaming conventions. The fact that current got delayed and last didn't tells me that even if last gen is very similar to 2k14 at least they don't seem to be experiencing the issues they are having with current gen.
  • Babbages gaming stores usually run a deal where if you pick up last gen and current gen the same day, on release day, the last gen will only cost $30.

 

Had I not reserved the Hulkamania Edition I might even be tempted just to get last gen and wait a few months to see what the reaction to current gen WWE 2K15 is, but with the Hogan edition being so limited I won't cancel my pre order.

The lack of custom entrance music is really busting my balls here.

 

I still haven't decided either way. If they haven't improved create-an-arena or CAW mode, then there won't be any sense in me buying this game on PS3.

 

If the legends roster/DLC sucks, then there won't be much reason to buy it on PS4. If I buy it on PS4, I'd probably just be buying it to have a game with Sting in it with PS4 graphics.

i considered getting it on both, for all of 2 secs, before deciding not to and just waiting for it to come out on ps4. i don,t see the point in getting it on both consoles. yes, its frustrating that current gen has been delayed, but the last thing i want to do is get it for last gen and get really far into the game, especially universe mode, and then have to start all over again. i have considered getting it just for last gen because i probably won,t play career mode anyway, i,m put off by the fact that the graphics won,t be as good. if i,m being honest, i,m really struggling with my decision right now. its gonna be hard not to get the last gen version when i have to wait 3 more weeks for the current gen version

despite the fact i,m still in 2 minds about it, i just cancelled my current gen pre order and pre ordered the last gen version instead. as previously stated, i probably won,t play career mode anyway and i believe thats the only difference between the 2 versions anyway, and the graphics of course. as long as universe mode is the same on both versions and we have the same roster on both then i,m fine. last thing i want to hear is that the nxt superstars are not in the last gen version but i doubt thats the case

After playing it, there's no way I could buy it on last gen. It's too much of an upgrade vs too short a wait. The stamina is really good, unlike previous games it simply prevents spamming. It feels natural as the wrestlers tire through the match. XB1 already has the ability to play custom soundtracks now it's up to game developers to include it or not, but even if it isn't in 2k15 I'd still rather skip that one feature in favour of the gameplay improvements were getting

I'm still undecided as to whether or not I'm actually getting the game, from what people are assuming, 360/PS3 will have a much better creation suite while Xbox-one/PS4 will be very limited in this area.

I haven't played wrestling in over a year. I planned on getting 2K15 on PS4 a long time ago since I knew 2K's influence would be felt and I had hoped we'd see major changes in gameplay (which we have, in my opinion).
The things they're going to sacrifice in order to improve the presentation on current-gen consoles doesn't bother me. It'd suck not to have custom music, but for me personally, it's worth it.

No, ir's riduclous to get it for two different systems. How about you get it FOR XBox One/PS4 and see if you like it first and then if you don't like the new system... then get the older one. Also, some caws can look really good, but NO CAW looks as good as the in game models. Even the best caws have massive flaws.Now, if you like playing with caws, that's cool, I just don't agree that they look on par. Again, see if you like the caws on X1 first and if you don't switch.

 

With a little that has been annouced, there's no way of knowing if the last gen mode will have any modes the new gen doesn't. If anything it's looking the other way around as we know new gen will have career mode.

 

As I wrote this I forgot last gen drops three weeks earlier. I'm going to wait, and maybe rent the last gen, but if I were you I'd find some way to obtain the last gen version for the three weeks to see if you want to upgrade or not. Paying, $120 on the same game is kind of silly.
