If you’re old and grumpy like me, you take no part in it, and look for an explanation by someone who speaks in full sentences. That includes if you wrote a review on the latest game and someone angry about this replies with “Nope.

WWE 2K24 Details Revealed https://phenixxgaming.com/2024/01/23/wwe-2k24-details-revealed/ https://phenixxgaming.com/2024/01/23/wwe-2k24-details-revealed/#respond Tue, 23 Jan 2024 16:00:02 +0000 https://phenixxgaming.com/?p=51230 To quote the great philosopher Johnny Hungee, “Adrenaline, in my soul, something-something Cody Rhodes!” Ever since the reveal last week that we’d get the cover and details on Monday, I had wondered what is going on with the covers of WWE 2K24, and now it just seems obvious: 40 years of ‘Mania, Cody, and of course Rhea and Bianca. Revealed yesterday morning, this year’s version of Titan Towers’…

WWE 2K23 Officially Revealed https://phenixxgaming.com/2023/01/24/wwe-2k23-officially-revealed/ https://phenixxgaming.com/2023/01/24/wwe-2k23-officially-revealed/#respond Tue, 24 Jan 2023 14:00:12 +0000 https://phenixxgaming.com/?p=43006 Well, there might be four covers this year, but it is impossible to see who’s taken the honor of being featured. Rumors last week were circling that John Cena would take up the cover slot and presumably take up the Showcase mode with several thousand matches with Randy Orton. I’ve got a feeling about now my non-wrestling fan editor is questioning the references, so let me clear it up…

PGA Tour 2K23 (XBO) – Review https://phenixxgaming.com/2022/11/08/pga-tour-2k23-xbo-review/ https://phenixxgaming.com/2022/11/08/pga-tour-2k23-xbo-review/#respond Tue, 08 Nov 2022 16:00:43 +0000 https://phenixxgaming.com/?p=40948 It is difficult to explain, but how you can have a Golf-simulation game that doesn’t feature St Andrews? That is like having an Indy Car game without the Indy 500, Nascar without the Brickyard 400 or its replacement, or even F1 without Monaco and/or Monza. I get that it isn’t featured in the current iteration of the tour but for a place that has played host to The Open 30 times…

WWE 2K22 (Xbox One) – Review https://phenixxgaming.com/2022/03/15/wwe-2k22-xbox-one-review/ https://phenixxgaming.com/2022/03/15/wwe-2k22-xbox-one-review/#respond Tue, 15 Mar 2022 18:00:10 +0000 https://phenixxgaming.com/?p=34162 Finally, GM is back! Alongside the first WWE game in a number of years that isn’t complete and utter tripe, as determined by whatever 2K Battlegrounds was supposed to be. 2K and Visual Concepts aren’t completely off the hook though, which is something that given last week’s report might make someone’s bum go squeaky. The year “off” from a release is made up for with a game of humans, not monsters…

WWE Possibly Partnering With EA https://phenixxgaming.com/2022/03/09/wwe-possibly-partnering-with-ea/ https://phenixxgaming.com/2022/03/09/wwe-possibly-partnering-with-ea/#respond Wed, 09 Mar 2022 18:00:51 +0000 https://phenixxgaming.com/?p=34016 It is interesting being on this side of the fence for big releases like Dying Light 2, Elden Ring, and even WWE 2K22, seeing things that are possibly more evident than others. We see things such as reviews from major sites not releasing within hours of the embargo lifting. We haven’t hit it either despite the fact I played several hours of it yesterday, as we only received the code hours following…

WWE 2K22 Shows Off MyGM Mode https://phenixxgaming.com/2022/02/21/wwe-2k22-shows-off-mygm-mode/ https://phenixxgaming.com/2022/02/21/wwe-2k22-shows-off-mygm-mode/#respond Mon, 21 Feb 2022 14:00:03 +0000 https://phenixxgaming.com/?p=33422 I’m a touch late on this, though I have the excuse of playing games, including ones I’ve adored for many years now. One of those I’ve got pilled up on my desk that’s been well-loved is WWE SmackDown Vs. Raw 2008 (Featuring ECW), with the last gasp of the reason I fell in love with wrestling games, GM Mode. Well, if you haven’t heard, WWE 2K22 is set to see the return of the sole reason I’d buy a…

NBA 2K22 (XBO) – Review https://phenixxgaming.com/2021/10/11/nba-2k22-xbo-review/ https://phenixxgaming.com/2021/10/11/nba-2k22-xbo-review/#respond Mon, 11 Oct 2021 17:00:59 +0000 https://phenixxgaming.com/?p=29019 It is not very often I get to say this, but I get to review a sports game of a sport I can actually play. Gym class for me most of the time was either getting to play Wii Tennis, Bowling, or Baseball on one of those smartboard-projector things schools have nowadays. The only other option was being able to just do free throws/half-court shots with the assistant teacher. It might be annoying to…

Tuesday, I spoke about F1 2021 and my hatred of fans. Wednesday, I covered the almost nothing releasing on Game Pass this week and next, while Alexx spoke about Biomutant which releases next week. Thursday, I want to climb in an oven to avoid Geoff Keighley and…

WWE 2K Battlegrounds (Xbox One) – Review https://phenixxgaming.com/2020/09/29/wwe-2k-battlegrounds-xbox-one-review/ https://phenixxgaming.com/2020/09/29/wwe-2k-battlegrounds-xbox-one-review/#respond Tue, 29 Sep 2020 18:00:41 +0000 http://phenixxgaming.com/?p=18134 Wrestling always has been, and always will be, a complete and utter mess of fandoms housed in straw homes. This is either based on a single wrestler being perfect, a promotion being the best, or specific eras of wrestling being any greater than others. Every one of those arguments stands on, to mix up my metaphors here, a pedestal so flimsy you could knock it over with a gentle sigh.
