    Is it me, or do those screens actually look worse than the last few WWE games on the PS2?

    Meh...! Shit game... never liked WWF games.

    I see all these people insulting the Nintendo corporation because of the lack of mature content. Yet there is something about Nintendo (at least their games) that strikes a certain unadulterated feeling of joy!!!  Pokemon Y - 1048-9263-5562

    Niether do I but if it works well with the wii remote I might be tempted.
    If it does it will be just as fun to watch people play the game, kinda like wii boxing.Smilie

    Somehow i doubted mate, it will probably be rushed and the controls will be crap!

    Maby maby but the video of a beta version they demonstrated, the controls looked suprisingly responsive. So it looks promising.

    I guess anything is possible these days Smilie so they might surprise me! Like you said if they make good controls then this might turn out to be good!

    Big smackdown game fan here, but I highly doubt Yukes can nail good control mechanics on their first attempt.Would love to be proven wrong though.Smilie
