Nice,Its a good game bu the handeling is a little strange the story is almoust as the movie and nice graghic and visual!
Firstly the gameplay is better , wrestlers move much more realisticly than before. The addition of mini-games prior to your match starting seemed a good idea at first but after a few matches they just irritated me.
Then the matchmodes. There are all the usual match modes : TLC , Cage , Hell in a cell and the Elimination Chamber. Although some good match modes have been omitted such as a recently used Casket , Buried Alive and Barbed-Wire Steel Cage Matches. Now why the first 2 were left out is beyond me. Meanwhile Bra And Panties makes an (un)welcome return. (Does anyone actually play these matches?)
The season mode is a huge disapiontment. It's far too short , has a story that is so on the rails its not even funny. You have little or no control of your character , except whether he is a heel or a face. Several titles have been omitted from the season. The voice-overs are attrocious and worst of all the good work of HCTP edit rosters feature has been left out. Meaning you can only have one CAW in the season at a time.
Onto the CAWS themselves. They are an improvement on HCTP graphically but there is still a lot of work to be done in this department. THQ have finally done something about the music by inputing licensed music from real bands which is a welcome change from being stuck with the annoying original music.
Entrances for CAWS are good and bad at the same time. New one sinclude Hulk hogan , Steve Austin and the Ultimate Warrior (All good) but many are just oppostie entrances of WWE stars eg , heel and face alternatives. (Another wasted opportunity)
The introduction of a Create-A-PPV is a welcome addition annd can't really be faulted , although personally i would like to see more arena's available.
Create-A-Belt is a huge waste of time. Truth is most belts look ridiculous and you can't create Tag Belts to defend. however with a bit more work this area could become a huge plus.
Now the Red Herring of the game. the Online mode. Such a waste of time because you can only play a single match or a Bra And Panties match. It's almost as if no effort went in to this part of the game at all.
The challenge mode provides a welcome distraction from the monotomy of season mode giving you the chance to unlock several legends.
As for the legends it's difficult tocriticise here especially considering they finally put Bret Hart into the game but possibl future additions must include Ultimate Warrior , Hulk Hogan and Stone Cold.
The commentary is hit and miss. It's good that both JR and King (RAW) and Mickeal Cole and Tazz (SmackDown!) are in the game for their respective programs but i've always been of the mindset. If your gonna do something at least do it right. And unfortunately like so many parts of this game it misses it's chance.
