Road To Wrestlemania



Randy Orton's new finishers

 

[bboi4lif3]

not bad

 

[lurkin2long]

slammin heads into the cage looks fun

 

[questions03]

Canadian Destroyer....more or less...

 

[blankenship]

I'm thinking about copping a system just for this

 

[rko2004]

Thanks for posting this. Great job so far. I was going to past at first until I found out they have downloadable wrestlers.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Demo is pretty fun. Game will def. be copped.

 

[therenegade23]

Way more characters

 

[ao17]

Does the PS3 version have Custom Entrance Soundtracks and equal amount of CAW (Create a Wrestler) layers as the X-Box 360?

 

[presequel]

are classic characters still in this? (stone cold, rock,bret, etc?)

I heard there wont be legends but thats just what I heard. I would rather have more current wrestlers anyway. If people want legends just buy that wrestlemaniagame that comes out next year.

 

[numba1kickrocka]

I really am just sick of the engine they need to start from scratch

 

[concordflightxi]

/\ yea but i would think that smackdown vs raw 2009 is a more complete game that than legends game, (i like this new create a finisher feature which i doubtwill be in the legends game) and also it said that the legends game will have a more arcade style approach to it

but someone mention that there are downloadable rosters for 2009... is that true?, does that mean u can eventually download legends into the game?

like there are still moves in that game from smackdown 2

they need to just change everything about it basically as far as character control goes.

Does the PS3 version have Custom Entrance Soundtracks
don't quote me, but im 98% sure that it won't.

by engine i think he means the gameplay, and i agree. i just played the demo with shawn michaels, and gave triple h a razors edge from the ring over the ropesto the ground below. yeah right. they had it right with here comes the pain and the first svr imo. even 2007 was pretty good, save for the stupid weightdetectors that would allow you to pick up and walk with the big show when using someone like rvd.

every year the controls get too complex, last years season mode was completely stupid, the fighting was boring, and they never fix the commentary. this seriesis beyond played, and is no longer on my must buy list. i might rent it.

and i'm tired of thq trying to steal my money. this years game has no legends, that way they can charge you 60 bucks for the wrestlemania game next year.bump that. BOTH games shoudl come together in the same package, nobody should have to pay 120$ for two games that do the same thing. and if there is nodownloadable content in the form of updated rosters on tihs game...............thq needs to get it together, it's only a matter of time before people stopbuying their crap. we don't want bells and whistles, we want good gameplay.

 

[Bonafide]

Is there a list of legends

 

[eddiehouse5]

yea, on game called legends of wrestlemania. check for it in march.

YES characters are downloadable there have been a few characters announced that they are downloadable, this game could be dope the roads to wrestlemania'sare suppose to be really good. Yea that does suck that there will probably be no legends, but they have also said that you would be able to transfer wrestlersfrom this game into the legends game. But o well....

Tell em how you really feel

I agree though. I haven't bought awrestling game in two years I believe.

At first I hated divas in the game but now I want acomplete game with 90-95% of the roster.

 

[tannervon]

the amount of wrestlers is ridiculous.

 

[da r entertainment]

This up next in my game q for Game Fly.

 

[OrangeBlueGarden]

is this game gonna be like the old wrestling games??

 

[iluvjordanxi]

smackdown's list or characters is weak. Creating a finisher looks fun but I know I will get bored of this game easily just like all the other wwe games.

 

[dakingii]

damn i aint played a wrestling game since before WWF became WWE, do they have online play?
