To me, the gameplay is solid, but the thing that really puts 2K14 over the top is the amazing 30 Years Of Wrestlemania mode. The beginning of the WWE 2K series gets off to a good start and it ends the WWE game run with the 360 perfectly. WWE 2K14 was very solid for the most part, and with The Rock on the cover, there were a lot of eyes on the game, especially following the hugely successful WWE '13.

In some ways, this is the best wrestling game on the 360, because it is truly the last WWE game on the system that got the proper attention to detail for all the things that make these type of games special. Overall, WWE '13 is a good game, and the nostalgia is great. Still, even with the focus being on the Attitude Era, there are other elements of the game that are enjoyable from the usage of the newer performers in the company at the time, making your favorite matches available with over 60 matches based around main characters of Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, DX, Kane, Mankind, Bret Hart, and The Undertaker, as well as the Off-Script mode. You can't beat nostalgia and the company understands that, so of course, all of your favorite legends are here for the most part, as the pivotal faces of wrestling's most popular era are present here in a beautfiul Attitude Era mode that rekindles every memory you've ever had from that time. CM Punk is on the cover, and while that is a great thing, and utilizing Punk in his best era is fun, the selling point of the game is the Attitude Era, so naturally this game was a success. This was the game that really put a focus on what the fans and consumers seemed to want, and it all starts with the infusion of the Attitude Era into the game. Still, one million copies sold is a victory, even if 800,000 of those copies were traded in.

Perhaps this game being better would have meant more for TNA and their growth. Outside of that, this game had little to offer, but if they would have fixed the gameplay some, and added more moves, it would have been great. I bought this game and played it several times, before trading it in to GameStop for a quarter or two, but what I did enjoy during my time playing the game was the ring and the use of the X-Division matches. TNA had been in negotiations with both Rockstar Games and EA Sports, both of whom I assume would have done a better job with the gameplay and maintained the graphics. Loaded with legends like Booker T, Sting, Kurt Angle, and more, the game had vast potential, but logically, their biggest mistake might have been going with Midway for the game. However, the game itself? It leaves you confused and just shocked at how they dropped the ball. They are quite honestly the best graphics I've ever seen on a Xbox 360 wrestling game. Allow me to just say this, first and foremost.
