Create a Story mode amazing....except for just one thing....
Road to Wrestlemania (This is pretty cool. You get to pick up to six wrestlers and play there storylines. Randy Orton, Shawn Micheals, John Cena, Triple H, and Mickie James were in there. There are some more but I can't remember. The storylines make sense. Orton gets attacked by Legacy, Micheals gets to the brink of retirement. It's pretty cool stuff it's just that I really didn't care for it.
Presentation- Overall this game has good presentation. The pins are more releastic, the crowd, the camera angles, the entrances, the faces, all are perfect. A VERY small minor thing for me was that when people do finishers they are usually are twitching on the ground. In real life they are totally knocked out. When Maryse does he French Kiss the divas are usually dead looking but in this game it looks like she just took another move. VERY SMALL issue but it would make the cool pins even better. Also the superstars get up much to quickly in ladder matches, making it take forever for the match to end. The online sharing is AWESOME! The only issue to that is that you can't change there moves, entrances, music (that I undertand), taunts, nothing! If you can just tweak someones creation a little it would be much better.
Create A Story Mode- One horrible issues were the ban of girls vs boys. I had so many ideas for Create a Story Mode.
John Cena going out with Kelly Kelly but then Batista comes and starts beating up Kelly and Cena saves her. These small things are great storylines.
Whenever women are hit usually the boyfriend gets mad and this creates an awesome story. I found myself never really using the divas. I tried to make Shawn Micheals attack Stephanie McMahon in a feud against Triple H but I couldnt do that. Another huge issue was 50 cutscenes on the PS3. The other issues were small but this one is HUGE. There telling me I can make 450 matches but only 50 cutscenes. That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. I usually get to 70 matches, 50 cutscenes before I have to stop. Whats the point of all those other unused matches? Another thing that caused me to actually stop playing the game altogether was a issue that is not publicized.
I had the Rock whoop Cena and then challenge anyone to come out to fight him. It would have been a awesome moments when Stone Cold appeared. But when Stone Cold came out there was no crowd. Since you have to put the sound as the music of Stone Cold you could not also make the crowd roar. It felt so wrong. When a guy like Stone Cold comes back it's supposed to be amazing, the crowd should pump up everyone and create this awesome moment. But it felt so dull, it was like no one cared that he came back. (I made the Story for my cousins and they noticed the same thing).
Shame thing is that they do EVERYTHING else perfectly. But these things break the experience. Hopefully SVR11 can fix the crowd and cutscene issue and then it will be perfect.
Roster - The roster is 9.5/10. They have the Rock, Edge , Randy Orton, Undertaker, Batista. Pretty much anybody that is a big superstar is in the game. Jeff Hardy is in it too, too bad he won't be in it next year.
Overall- This game is good. Story Mode was the main reason I was excited for it and it really didn't deliver. The good news is that it is a fun game to play with other people. The Money in the Bank and Ladder matches are so fun to play with 4 other guys. This game is flawed but it is the best in the series.
