The Bottom Line:

"Disappointing"

Well this is a huge step back for WWE games. Everything that was great about last year game is gone. The only improvement in this game is the roster and that is pretty bad itself. When i bought this game i wasnt trying to get a rpg and it seems like thats what i got. In 24/7 mode you have to do stuff that eithe fatigues you or injures you so its no fun going into a match worrieing about my broken wrist. You have to pay for stuff and it seems like the video are always reversed. For instance when you win a match and there is a video after it, you are the one all hurt exiting the ring and your opponent is standing on the turnbuckle or vice versa. Plus during the matches the titantron is just gray. This game is also pretty hard. My fav character is jeff hardy and to this point the only aerial move ive landed is the hurracaranna. I cant land a swanton bomb, a elbow, or a diving spear. Its ridiculous. The type of fighter you are is supposed to impace this, if youre technical you would reverse it anyway but it seems everyone reverses it and at that everything is reversed. ultimate control moves and strikes are always reversed. For some reason i cant go for the world heavyweight championship with JTG or Shad in exhibition mode and you also cant use them in 24/7 mode. in fact you can only use the better superstars. Why you cant use JTG but you can use william regal i will never know. This is just an abomination it went from being a psp game so close to perfection and it turned into a game that because of all the changes wont be good for at least 2 years. They dont even have a classic control feature and that ticks me off. So ar in my 24/7 the storylines are horrible and they dont make any sense, i got jumped by edge and he was screaming ecw. Instead of getting videos with voice in them i get liitle stupis achievemnsts and stats and stuff. Idk why they want me to work on my mic skills if you never hear the voice of your wrestler. Plus did i mention that before the show it either shows a video of youre character lifting weights or shaking the future opponents hand backstage. The same guy who just called you a bloody wimp in wwe magazine. This game gets a 8 because if you forget all that it has fun gameplay, a decent soundtrack but a pretty bad roster(sorry cryme tyme but your part of the problem). The hall of fame mode is extremely difficult. I cant win a money in the bank on easy and they ask me to do it on legend. The decision they made to give jeff hardy the whisper iin the wind as a finisher was horrible. King of the ring is ok but it seems the underdog always wins the simulations. Plus john cenas a 97 and thats a huge misrate. So basically 24/7 sucks. the roster sucks, the graphics are worse then last year, the controls wre good and now theyre changed, the storylines suck, WWE shop sucks and hall of fame is hard.This game is a example of the lakers. Just like LA this game was good but then the lakers traded shaq(which in smackdown v. raw terms would be trading season for 24/7 mode) and it all went to hell. That s what this game does and it makes me apolled to be a wwe fan.
