This f-ing game. Another 3-way ladder match before I get my title shot. They aren't even fun. 100% frustration. Great... now I'm having flashbacks to the four-way cage match in Day of Reckoning 2 (IIRC) and I haven't even received my review copy yet. Man, f*** that noise... |

Great... now I'm having flashbacks to the four-way cage match in Day of Reckoning 2 (IIRC) and I haven't even received my review copy yet. Man, f*** that noise... It took me about 5 tries to win the match last night.....and a whole lot of swearing. I finally won when HHH had a sliver left in grabbing the belt, Mysterio knocked him off the ladder, and I got up there and snagged it. It was painfully horrible. I was tempted to just give up and figure I'll get another shot for the title eventually. |

I just became an up-and-comer last night (or whatever is the level after midcarder) and haven't done anything but a never-ending stream of singles matches (including "KO matches" and hardcore). I have a valet (Kelly Kelly... meh) who doesn't accompany me to ringside (...), and every last one of my matches looks pretty much the same. This game is boring the crap out of me. I can't wait until it starts frustrating the crap out of me...  |

I'd love for them to make it for the 360, that's for sure. Fire Pro II for the Gameboy is easily my all-time favorite wrestling video game. ::cough:: FireProReturns::cough:: ~ :-Xsk |

Holy hell.
I'm not going to have to worry about dealing with any triple-threat ladder matches or any of that nonsense.
The Wii version doesn't have any sort of special matches. As far as I can tell, my options are: singles, tag, hardcore*, triple threat, and KO. No ladders, no cages, no tables (other than the announce tables, which are just platforms)... nothing.
*If you can call two chairs and no count-outs (which you can disable anyway) "hardcore".

Well can you at least do crotch chops and the "You Can't See Me" pose? If you can then the entire child fanbase will buy the game in a heartbeat.

The "interactive grapple" system is actually kinda cool, but it's like the entire game has regressed to SNES-era "features" to compensate for it. I have a qustion for the people not playing this on Wii... can you guys preview your entrances in CAW mode? |

[td][/td] ::cough:: FireProReturns::cough:: ~ :-Xsk QFT. The WWE wrestling games have fallen pretty far since the THQ N64 days. I picked up SvR07 a little while after it came out, played it for about 2 weeks and haven't touched it since. If you want to play a REAL wrestling video game, do yourself a favor and pick up FPR. Nuff said.  |

My copy was one of the early versions with the memory-erasing bug (yay for memory pak backups of CAWs... after the first time), so I wasn't that broken up when I donated it to a friend and his family along with my N64 and a bunch of other games.

For those interested, my review of the Wii version is up, and reviews of the other versions (all of them: DS, PSP, PS3, and X360) should be up on Snackbar soon. |

Good read -- and man, they really skimped on the features for Wii....that would tick me off royally. The novelty of being able to 'perform' the moves would wear off for me much sooner than all the match types, 24/7 mode, etc.
Makes me continue to be glad that I went with a 360 over a Wii.
