This is the way that 2008 should have been.Some minor flaws, but very good.
The first remarkable improvement are the loading times, finally we came with a fast loading game, this makes the game smoother and less boring.Tough there are many wrestlers missing, like Austin and some other legends.
Another good thing is that now you don't buy anything so you don't have to bore yourself playing a lot to get the money, instead you unlock the stuff playing through the Road To Wrestlemania mode which let's you choose the some of the most important superstars of the WWE and guide their path to the most exciting event of the year, in this mode you will have to take some decisions so you'll have to play at least two times each story to get through the different paths and unlock all the stuff, you'll get many funny and innovative ways of playing, one in special in the Undertaker history so check it out.
The comments are WAY better than the previous game, but still there are some ripped off from svr2008, pay attention to JR and the King.The gameplay hasn't changed a lot, just that now you have the favorites moves that can be stored and that now you don't have a fighting style,example brawler, the wrestlers have instead a max of 6 out of 10 or more abilities which include dirty pin using the ropes or escape a submission instantly using the triangle button, and the Inferno match which is really good.You have the create a finisher feature, that is good but I know that many had a little more expectatives about this one.Some characters have been tweaked to look better, for example Edge.And last but not least there's a career mode, yes there's one apart from the RTW, which I recommend to be played with a CAW to improve his abilities, this career is straight forward, you start out your "route" to the intercontinental championship, at least for me, and you must fight 4 or 5 wrestlers, each fight will grant you stars according to some parameters like speed etc., when you get a certain amount of stars you can challenge the champion for a title match and the continue into the race for another belt.Just one thing I didn't liked is the main menu, is a bit ugly but that's just a spot in a overall great game.
So if you're a fan of wrestling get this one ASAP.
