Not holding out much hope for this one.

I'm sure a lot of what THQ are touting was in last year's version.

And this preview tells me nothing of what I really want to know. Such as will there finally be more than six characters on screen at once so that we can have proper royal rumbles, battle royals and 5 on 5 elimination matches.

I always hoped the DS would get a wrestling game like the old WWF ones on the Snes.

That second screenshot is the gayest thing I've seen on EG ever.

There's more chance of Super Mario being in it than there is Chris Benoit

A Radiohead reference in a wrestling review?

Wasted, surely.

Oh, by the way, if there are any wrestling fans out there... You can join the Eurogamers Wrestling group, for (at least semi-)sensible wrestling chat with no-one taking the mick just because you watch it.

Why would a wrestling fan listen to pansy-ass Radiohead?

"I miss the old WWF"

Indeed. The old wrestlers made much better game characters as well.

>"hasnt been a decent wrestling game since the N64 classics"

Indeed. Could never get to grips with the arcadey smackdown series.
Raw 2 was on the right path, and could've been like the N64 games if they had given the same developers more time.

I doubt I'll ever get a wrestling game again.

I don't get why Wrestling games haven't had a massive overhaul, with regards to their grappling/fighting system. I'm always fooled by each new version, I think ''Ohhh, I'll give it a go, it might not be rediculously clumsy and slow with an awful control system anymore'' .....10 Minutes later, tears are literally streaming down my face, from pure rage.
I guess fans of the series just put up with it, but it makes me sick :)
Edit- And my god, photo 2 is just begging to be photoshopped, you all know what needs to be erased, and then what needs to be inserted yes.

It's sad really, I think the WWE games have great potential, but THQ has really messed it up for like the last three years

I love all WWE games. Sure, they're a different breed to the N64 classics but they're still a lot of fun. I just wish they would give it a major overhaul. It feels like an expansion pack most years.

They got too complicated and changed the controls way too much with each one.

I was fine with Here Comes the Pain (the last one I owned), but whenever I played the later iterations with other people I just felt completely lost.

Wrestling is just Coronation street but with gay muscle men in it. It has to be the gayest, embarrassing excuse for entertainment there is. Why they make games about I don't know?

I really don't understand the fun of this. A game where you play as an actor pretending to do fighting?

I can't wait to play the hidden extra where you murder your family in your mansion.

But first you have to find all the hidden syringes to unlock it.

Xerx3s, the game is not about acting. The game is a fighting game, first and foremost. Wrestling being pre-determined has nothing to do with the game, so why are you even bringing that up?

Only the DS version sounds actually intriguing. But it does that in droves.

I hate how every p/review for a Smackdown game says how much better the animation is, then when it comes out it turns out to be the most embaressingly bad pile of shit in the whole world ever.

Have you ever watched a Smackdown game being played? It like watching somebody flapping two condoms around.

I love the way people hate wrestling....

It's so weird that it gets their backs up so much
