Over rated game, not what I expected, cheesy control, AI and story, same old, no real improvement since 2008... Read! ;)
Good Graphics.
Real looking wounds.
Better crowd.
Create an entrace is kool specially for your song, you don't have to get an awful one from wwe.
You can download create players instead of trading them.
Royal Rumble Improved.
2 players, diva and create players stories are back.
Create a finisher is back.
You can battle for belts in single mode.
Good game to multiplay but not online...
You can download stories online from other players.
And now for the cons:
THIS GAME IS REPETITIVE!
No more create a belt.
Create a superstars is lacking in everyways, espacially with the creation points.
Control wasn't improved espcially targeting mode, counters and going in the turnbuckles.
Story mode sucks since the past 3-4 years, less and less wrestlers to play with in them as well and is way too short.
You can't choose weapons under the aprons like in the 2009 version.
You can't go in the crowd no backstages and on the titantron like the old ones.
Stupid and buggy AI even when playing at legend difficulty.
You can't erase downloaded movies.
You can't edit downloaded superstars like the 2007 versions.
Downloaded superstars are 40 of overall and not the overall that people build them to like the past years games.
You can't upgrade your created superstars overall with points in create superstars mode.
You still can't save other players as friends online.
Not much to unlock nowadays especially for legends.
Well im sure I've forgot a few pros and cons here and there, but you know what I mean :P this game is not really improved, it's a tad better than the 2009 and that's about it. So nothing to go crazy it's a fair game that you'll get bored fast, good to multiplay with friends or at a party... Enjoyable at first, i say rent it before buying it, but i still recommend it for hardcore wrestling fans of today wrestling, vintage guys like me that like 80's wrestling and attitude will all be disapointed... Reality with bleeding and sweat and amazing graphic is not all and it doesn't make the game any better, especially in create a superstars when you're lacking room and this is what it made the franchise back in the days, the almost infinite things you could do with your toons and the hundreds of moves and entrance, with legends and stuff... Anyway, I give the game a big 6.5 out of 10 because it is entertaining, frustrating sometimes but enjoyable and the graphics are good. I sure hope the 2011 version will be improved with create tools and legends!
So I would suggest that if you like new wrestling era, stick with this one, so far, its masterpiece, till 2011 comes out. In other words if you're an oldschool fan well play Smackdown shut your mouth, here comes the pain and smackdown 2, they were the best. You're not a smackdown fan? No problemo!
No mercy, wrestlemania 2000 and even attitude were great on N64, or you could get yourself days of reckoning, raw on xbox or wrestlemania on gamecube, not perfect but still... For those who like hardcore go with EC DUB! Arcade wrestling fan would likely choose snes wwf games Or if you like wcw well, there's no real good game about this franchise lol just get fire pro wreslting and you'll be amazed! Tricky and sometimes hard control but you gonna enjoy it. TNA is not even worth to mention and Lucha libre well, let's hope it will be good because, it looks good! :P
I hope you all enjoyed my fast review and maybe it helped a few people to think if they might like it or not, til next time, have a nice day!
