[9.0] "WWE 2K16 was a huge improvement over WWE 2K15 and I think its one of the best 2K games. The showcase mode is the best of the series as you play as Steve Austin throughout his WWF career with snippets from WCW and ECW! MyCareer mode is fun, but can get repetitive and Universe mode is alright. However, the best part of this game was definitely the roster! Brought in almost everyone on the main roster and notable NXT stars along with a huge variety of legends from different eras! My only complaint about it is the women's roster was severely lacking. Overall, great game!"

[10.0] "Extremely good, I still play it to this day, the story of Stone Cold is incredible and was great as they adapted it to be playable, the roster is very good (it is even fine without the need for the DLC) and the creation of character is too simple but this good, everything he has said is based on the PS3 version. I recommend it."

[8.0] "Pretty fun game. This was the second WWE game I purchased as a kid so the nostalgia hits heavy. The Austin 2k showcase is super fun to play and the career mode is also pretty cool with a lot of fun storylines. My only major complaint about this game is that the gameplay is a little slow."

[6.0] "Some strange physics and a joy that sometimes feels slow, but it really is an entertaining game (especially for a nostalfan), the roster is quite complete for the time, but the character creation mode is quite limited complicating the creation of caws. 6/10"

[9.0] "Last good WWE and wrestlng game in generally. The legend roster is totally awesome. Only missing point is Hogan. I still have my PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 copys of this game. Both version were epic for specific reasons (ps3 was more arcade, ps4 simulation). After WWE 2K16 the series is running downhill and ended with WWE 2K20 in a total disaster."

[8.0] "It's true. Thats the only good modern WWE game that you can have. If you like the old school wrestling with WWF, WCW & ECW Superstars, than this game is for YOU! Espcially if you are a Stone Cold Steve Austin diehard and a attitude era fan. Only thing this game really had a need were story designer like in the old ps3 wrestling games (last seen on WWE 2K14), season mode like in ps2 games and a good booking mode. Also the biggest lack in this game is Hulk Hogan who was suspended at this time for racist scandal. Hogan would made this roster (which was awesome anyway) only more epic. I know you can mod him in on PC version but. I only had this game for PlayStation 3&4 (yeah I rebuyed this game later for playstation 3, just for the better more arcade styled gameplay, also seen from the older ps3 games. The ps3 version also had the old matches still in like special referee, inferno matches, backstage brawl, which were completely missed in the ps4 version... ) Unfortunately, this also the last game with The Iron Sheik (in as Col. Mustafa) and William Regal (who also have his WCW Lord Steven Regal Persona in this game). Legends like these should be in every game. This game deserved the 8 points. Is also still highly playble in these days, espcially if you play for the legends. (it's honestly more a legend game, than a WWE 2016 game anyway :D)"

[6.0] "This game was fine for what it is the career mode was ok pretty bad at times but in NXT was pretty fun to play and the 2k showcase was pretty cool to go threw the career of stone cold. The roster was good brought alot of people who were not in 2k15 most of them being NXT guys and people like Sin cara, Zack ryder, and Heath slater. The game was fun but I can only recommend it to the people who just like to collect wrestling games anyways it is a fine game it is better than last years game for sure and heck it's even better than the next game I will talk about 2k17 later and 2k15 too but anyways goodbye and see you next time I rate something."

[8.0] "Pretty good game worth buying, you really revive what you see in TV. Awesome showcase, nice roster, MyCarrer needs some fix, but it is in the right way, the most bad thing is this game is some characters models, some is horrible and don't even looks like the wrestler, guys like Triple H, Cena, Orton, Rusev, Austin has a really great models, looks just like in real life, but Y2J, Wyatt is horrendous, i hope the guys will work more on this no 2K17, overall good game, enjoayble, fun, dense roster to revive any match you want."

[7.0] "This was a good WWE game. Universe mode was good. Online mode was really fun. The roster was amazing. What really sucked was all the DLC and no four- horsewomen. The Steve Austin Mode was good and challenging. I didnt like the grappling and submission systems though. The creation sweet was better than ever in this game"

[9.0] "Can't give this a full blown 10, but its damn close. This is the first game in a long awhile that has held my interest past a few months. Largely in part to the Universe mode. The fantasy matchups and booking keeps it flowing. Pls the matches are flat out fun to play. So many matchups I haven't even visited yet. its that extensive. The first few months of gameplay were awesome. Dabbling in the showcase mode was a great blast from the past. Carrer mode died early on for me. It needs a TON of work but progression will help that. The CAWs are fantastic and downloading missing characters from the community builds the roster even more I play these games yearly, but skipped out on 2k15 because I knew that the first game was going to be a stepping stone. Ala, NBA 2k15. Heres to hoping that 2k17 takes it even further."

[9.0] "It's alright, still don't really care much for the "new" reversal system, but it's whatever.. NEEDS custom music back on the PS4 version, other than that, I can't think of anything I'd really change about it.. oh, needs more CAW slots.... 100 just doesn't do enough for me... 200.. now that would be fantastic, cause then I could actually have my full ECW, WCW, and WWF rosters back."

[9.0] "The game has a very amazing combination of eras of WWE (Hulkamania, New Generation, Attitude, Modern) plus WCW and ECW. Althrough has the same gameplay as WWE '13, it doesnt mean that is bad. Except for the common errors in animation and objects, its very cool to wrestle with friends, a very good inversion"

[10.0] "This game sure has lived up to the hype. I love it. The new gameplay is amazing, and better than ever. The graphics are great, the Austin showcase mode is a lot of fun, Career Mode is definitely better than it was on 2K15 + the roster is amazing. And even though I still am not a big fan of the background matchmaking thing that 2K introduced to us in 2K15, it works way better than it did in 2K15. So that's not much of a problem anymore. Overall 2K16 is easily one of the better wrestling games ever made."
