Fun wrestling game but lacks several standard options to make it more attractive

This is the kind of game I would classify as a very targeted audience game. First of all, you'll need to like wrestling games, next, you'll have to like rap.

The game is overall good, but not really a great game. The story mode is too short, the tutorial videos are too low in quality terms (they seem like PS2 videos!), and the replay value for the 1 player mode is limited by several inexisiten options to customize the fight. In the graphic department, the models are solid, but the animations are sometimes too mechanical, also the collision detection routines fails to prevent limbs passing through other bodies, wich actually can be annoying when performing some moves. The sound is not too good also, as the music is hardly appreciated. You cannot set up your playlist, nor the songs are good (better in True Crime: LA). Finally, be prepared to smash the buttons A LOT!! Perhaps is just my opinion but I really prefer SoulCalibur II as a fighting game.
