Aparently a couple of places have given this 8/10 and that the final game is a million times better than the demo.

Nope, downloaded and burned it.

The videos are pretty cool but the controls are exactly the same so I don't know what they're babbling about.

I'm presuming those magazines were bribed. Were they "exclusive" reviews, by any chance?

Oh, it's "VideoGamer" (Who?) with a quote such as:

"The new control scheme is, for me, a change for the better"

and GamesMaster, who have had an exclusive review of every WWE game since THQ took them over and never gone below a 7 for any of them.

Honestly, professional reviews all over the net have become shit poor. It was like EGM bought upon a fall of ideals or some shit. IGN is unreadable at this point, but Kotaku seems to have rational reviews (except it's not really their bag).

EGM was the best, not just for what they wrote, but their whole set up. 3 man reviews (4 man black in the day) with an aggregate score >>>>> 1 man review anyday.

I got this in the post this morning, and I've had a fair few hours play out of it.

So far, not alot negative to say about the game if I'm honest.

I transferred my SvR file across, and it seems they've been slightly cheeky. 'Import ALL of the superstars from SvR' is a bit of an exageration, if only a small one. Divas have been removed, for obvious reasons. So some superstars that have been released, such as Paul London and Big Daddy V.

Although one positive thing that goes with the SvR/CAW transfer is that they all come ready with a 'Legends' moveset. The finishers are as simple as a joined move that consists of the two signature moves and one of the finishers.

Example being, Legend Undertaker's finish will consist of a fairly fluent combo of his flying lariet, a big thrust to the throat, and a Tombstone. Where as SvR Undertaker's finish consists of Old School, a chokeslam, and the Tombstone.


The ladder matches and cage matches are pretty different from SvR. IMO neither better or worse, just different. For the first time I remember in a game, you can just walk out of the cage door. No superplex then crawl stuff. Just get your opponent down, walk towards the door, and button bash to get out. Mean while the opponent button bashes to get up, first one to do so wins the minigame. Same story with climbing out as well.

I haven't unlocked HIAC or played the rumble yet, so more on those later.

There are plenty of outfits to unlock. HBK, Taker, LOD, and a few others too.

There aren't any 'shadows' for unlockable characters, so I'm unsure if in fact there are any to unlock.

I'm currently doing the 'Relive' mode. So far I've done Bundy/Hogan, Andre/Hogan, Warrior/Hogan, Slaughter/Hogan and Austin/Bret. My next match being HBK/Austin, and the final match in the mode being Austin/Rock.

The further you get in the mode the more objectives you have to complete in order to 'pass' and get a gold medal. For example Hogan/Bundy only presents you with a basic 6, such as make Bundy bleed by whipping him into the cage, stop him from escaping twice, hit the legdrop, escape the cage. Where as Hart/Austin had about 10, which you have to complete about 8.


So my current verdict is that its definately an enjoyable game, if you can see past the fact that its not supposed to be based on 'technical wrestling' and wearing down body parts. It is what it is, a fun wrestling game. If you were a fan back in the day then I'd recommend it.

Needless to say, if anything its a nice refreshing change from the Smackdown series, which as we know barely changes from year to year.

No not at all. On the main menu there is an option to 'Import from SVR', click on it and you get options of Import superstars and import caws. Importing superstars is worth it, as it automatically transfers all of the available superstars straight over, which roughly doubles the roster size. When you chose to import CAWs you can just select which CAWs you want to import, be it just the one, a few, or all.

But if you want a "refreshing change" you may as well play TNA Impact, currently found in bargain bins across the world right now.

It's like saying "Chicken never changes from year to year, for a refreshing change, I think I'll enjoy human feces"

If someone strapped me down and said play either TNA iMPACT or LoW for the rest of your life or else, I'd pick TNA every time.

If LoW and TNA swapped engines, I bet more people would still prefer LoW just because of what it is and not how either game plays.

Really? Maybe its just from a personal stand point. I just found every match in TNA to be the same, as well as the characters who basically had the same moveset, bar the finisher. I got very frustrated with TNA, alot of the time. Whereas I'm actually enjoying LoW

So I bowed to my inner mark for nostalgier and bought this, manged to find it fairly cheap, so that was a bonus off the bat.

Got to agree with LOD, from what I've played I've actually enjoyed it. Yeah, its no way near perfect, but its ok. Working my way through Relive mode, currently on a losing streak in the Austin/Michaels one due to really annoying objectives.

Oh btw LOD, that Kane dvd is awesome.

If you import the SvsR superstars over what happens to their move set? Is it redone to fit the game style or are they the same controls and moves from SvsR?

LOL at Disturbed being stuck on the same match as me. The objectives are pretty demanding. Reverse SCM twice. So I have to let HBK beat on me enough for him to get 2 finishers, use them, and then after I reverse them, try not to lose with blatently no health.

I played the rumble and the HIAC last night. Rumble is awesome as the youtube video showed, no faults. Maybe if you could get more than two people to eliminate others, and make it so bigger people are harder to lift over, therefore making team ups manditory? Just a thought.

HIAC seems odd at first. You start off at the top of the cell(the beginning animation seems to copy the start of Foley/Taker), and once someone goes through or over, you stay down the bottom. No big deal though.

Once down, the 'special moves' will allow you to body slam or suplex people through or into the cage walls. Pretty cool.

Now on my first match, after that it finished like an ordinary match. My second match was where I found something cool. Out of the blue I Jake Roberts into the steps, and the steps moved. Underneath was a brown bag. At first I thought 'awesome, its Damien or something', until it said double tap B to pick up. I did and it triggered an animation of my guy taking the bag into the ring and tipping out thumbtacks.

Que the end of the match when myself and Jake were fighting mid ring, he got dazed. The 'press A for special move' que came up,and I pressed it. CHOKESLAM ON THE TACKS BAH GAWD! Pretty cool.

Another observation is that the cell is alot more to scale than SVR, giving more room to manuver between ring and cage this time.

So even if they dont make this into a series of its own (hopefully Legends of Summerslam, etc) then at least they can implement certain aspects of this game over to SVR to improve that side of things.

Thanks for the DVD recommendation Disturbed. I was torn between the Kane DVD, the new Eddie DVD and the RAW 15 DVD at payday.

I think the BOD mark in me will get the Kane DVD come the end of the month.

Hmmm....HBK and Takers alt attires are a little dissapointing. The Undertakers is the pre minstry attire. Except he has the same entrance. Which means he has the hat.
And for whatever reason he has the same tattoos as the older model.

As for HBK....Rockers attire. But no sign of Marty. Perhaps he's unlockable? If not then it makes the whole thing kinda pointless. Plus he keeps the same entrance as well.

Never mind I guess, could be worse.

There are no unlockable wrestlers. There are unlockable costumes however. I unlocked Shawn's before I put the DVD+R in the bin, never looked at it though to see what it was.

Hmm...kinda disappointing that there are no unlockable wrestlers. All that talk about Quake and Demolition was all for nothing.

Rented it. Decent rental at least. All you have to do to get SvR wrestlers in is have a Smackdown vs Raw save present. Gonna try Orton vs Mr Perfect next! WOOOOO

And then I'm gonna create...

Hasney is painting an unrealistic picture of this game. If you like SVR you'll probably like this cause they're on par with one another. Not poor, not great. Floating in limbo in the middle.

Whats unrealistic? The hope that they would make a good game?

The whole design seems to be:

1) Get WWE rights
2) Make Legends game
3) ???
4) Profit

Like you said, it's in limbo. Considering the same company, with the same license, made Day of Reckoning, No Mercy & HCTP (DoR and HCTP were even the same devs FFS) means we should not accept sub-par bullshit.

YOu pretty much said it yourself, the game is mediocre. Nothing to be irate about. More average games from a company who's gotten comfortable making average products. Nothing unexpected.
