I've been thinking about getting this game. Anyone here played it? I use to buy this game almost every year, but haven't in the last 4 or 5. I always thought it was entertaining creating a wrestler and his intros. :aggressive:

I used to get these every year, too. But since I'm not into wrestling that much anymore I haven't bought any in a couple years. I'll probably rent it in a few weeks.

Last one I played or sampled was horrible. The load times were absolutely rediculous. I'm talking a minute or two for each wrestlers intro, then a minute or two for the actual fight. It was 10-15 minutes to boot up the xbox and get into a quick match.

^ Pretty much. Every WWF/WWE game has been like that since the death of cartridge gaming, where load times were non-existant.

I bought everyone of these until last years.

Not a very deep roster,

In place of letting JBL do his own commentary they just have him repeat Tazz's lines from 2006.
Collision detection still sucks.
And they took out some of the create-a wrestler moves.
They do have flaming tables and the Con-chairto

But THQ is a lazy group of bums in my book, this series has been going down hill for me.

I would rent it just to send John Cena through a couple flaming tables
