Customer Reviews

Fantastic
It's great fun.The graphics are amzing and it's worth every single penny.The only proplem is that is has no commentry!

fun but repetitive
this game, just like any other wrestling game, can be great fun either by yourself or with friends. The variety of matches is a large spread, including the new ecx extreme rules match, which ads new weapons to the match. The 24/7 mode has an intriguing story, and can last a while. Unfrortunately, the story gets quite repetitive after you play through the first year. Probably the biggest flaw (in my opinion) is the amount of loading. I'd have to say that about 60% of the gameplay is waiting for the loading to finish. However, all games need to load, and since so much information is packed into the small umd, it is forgiveable. The create modes are also very good, offering create modes for: superstars/divas/move sets/entrances/stables/championships. Overall, i find it a good, entertaining game with a long life span and great variety in game modes.

BRILLIANT! a bit too much repitition.
the game is very good. the graphics are amazing for psp. The season is really good because after wrestlemania you carry on into the next year. too much repetativity but not too bad, however it does get pretty boring after a while, especially when you have created a wrestler and the only way to make them better is to go onto season mode until they are at the best. Also you can move over from smackdown and raw in the season which sometimes makes the season different.

There are a lot of game options money in the bank included, unfortunately no special refferee. Dx and other real life stables are in it as well. you can unlock ledgends and ecw ledgends. you can create stables, championships, wrestlers/divas- created wrestlers often come out looking weird if you play as them in a match also you do not have many layers available.

You can win King of the ring and then choose a queen which is a lot of fun. There are other tournaments like beat the clock tournament which is also good.

the music is ok (which is what you hear in the match) but it would be a lot better if there was commentary in the match.

if you have the money you should get it!!!
