i know this game gets shallow reviews, lets face it, it is a game for guys and i am a guy. but seriously there are alot of people giving this game bad reviews strictly because of the control difference between ps2 and xbox 360. it has very good graphics and i think, gameplay but alot of people should also check the box for age rating. it says rated M for a reson. dont get me wrong, it is suggestive, but thier NOT naked people. if your a guy you will like this game. just dont expect to much and like it for its novolty value, a laugh. there noty real girls and this game has gotten harsh reviews because of the "vitual girl" factor. if you dont like it dont buy it its that simple. but dont give it a bad review becase everyone elses says its bad. decide for your self. i give it 5 stars FOR FUN NOT THE GIRLS!!!!. but yes they do look a little hot.

Let's stop apologizing for being born with a Y chromosome. This game is amazing! It's got fighting. Athletic young females in revealing outfits putting each other in various submission holds. It belongs in the humorously titillating category. I don't know about polygon counts but an observer of the opposite gender said: "that girl's got 2 dimples above her [...], just like me". The fighting is a bit difficult to master - you've got to hit the right sequence of buttons at the right time or your character just takes a beating. Many moves take a few seconds to execute, which can be hard to get used to. This is especially true when playing the Dixie Clemens the cowgirl. Maybe the master programmer had a bad experience in Montana? Other characters have a quicker response time. As far a making progress in the game, who cares? It's just fun to play. Treat yourself to this game - just don't play it in front of the kids or nagging whining feminist types.

How can this game get three stars?! It's got cool wrestling moves,it's really sexy,and it's really fun. All I can say to you people who gave this game low scores is you should be ashamed of yourselves and f*** you big time! This also goes out to those who gave Dead or Alive 4 a score of three and a half. For those of you who gave this game high scores good for you. I do suggest for every XBOX 360 collection you should own this game along with Dead or Alive 4 and Dead or Alive:Xtreme 2,because without a doubt these are the sexiest games on the next-gen market and they're 360 exclusives. I do caution parents with these games because of their mature ratings. So I'll name off their content descriptors: Rumble Roses XX- mild language,partial nudity,sexual themes,and violence,Dead or Alive 4- blood,violence,sexual themes,and partial nudity,Dead or Alive:Xtreme 2- partial nudity,sexual themes, and simulated gambling. Of course I give all these games a perfect score,and I definitely recommend them.
fun for everyone!!!!

Games are for what? Entertainment
What do guys like? guess...
People like games with high resolution and pleasing graphics... (Usually) A game with some challenge along with eye appeal is wonderful (or the challenge of playing due to visual distraction. LOL) This game meets all of that.
There are negatives to games just based on sexy digitally animated women, but it is a change, for some people, from constantly looking at real life nice material all day, 7 days a week.
This game, like any other things in life; when played (or working with) excessively, it will get boring.
Personally, I'm tired of contantly playing checkers/chess/cards and almost winning 95% of the time. For some reason, this game has some unique form of challenge in the sense, I have not gotten too far in the game after nearly a month of owning this. (or it could be because I spend too much time in the locker room. But the swimsuit outfits are many and the player does not have enough money to get them all! LOL)
It really depends on a person's nature and taste, but I say this game is just... GREAT! 3 thumbs up! (other people can focus on the negatives here... I'm just being positive.)
Great wrestling game, little bit shallow

Yeah, yeah, I've read the critic's reviews that this game is nothing but T&A and only for losers with no girlfriend and the gameplay stinks and all that. All I can say is this: don't believe the hype. While there is definitely a "sex sells" kind of attitude about Rumble Roses, it is done in an over-the-top, very tongue-in-cheek fashion that is more likely to make you laugh than arouse you. That aside, the fun is in the game itself. Wrestling game fans should be more than satisfied with the gameplay; it features dozens of diverse and creative moves for each of the great characters, all of whom have 4 different incarnations (face, heel, and a superstar version of each) with different styles as well as 3 finishing moves each. The entrances range form super-badass to ridiculous to hilarious and feature some unique...ummm.. visuals to say the least. The action is fast for a wrestling game, arcade friendly, and provides lots of challenges in the way of unlockables you can get by beating a character's specific rivals repeatedly or by performing various other challenges. The best mode is tag-team which features a lot in the way of teamwork between tag-partners. Team with your character's buddy and your teamwork will rock your opponent's worlds. Screw up and attack your friend too often or choose a bad teammate and you will find yourself with a partner who won't tag with you or participate in doubleteam attacks. The voice acting is great and conveys trash-talking, self-motivation, teammate encouragement, or the decline of your friendship with said teammate during the matches. Then there's the "queen's match" in which the loser has to perform a humiliating task in an outfit of your choosing. There are tons of things: cleaning the pool, sexy poses, jumping rope, getting squirted with a watergun, bouncing on a pogo stick, limbo, dances, the list goes on and on. After victory, you get to watch you opponent's embarrassment as they perform the task and you can zoom in and around the shot in any angle you like in a manner similiar to the Dead or Alive games. Lastly, there's the "street fight" mode which borrows heavily again from DOA but drops the actual fun. All of this is great fun, but the game could have been much, much better. First off, the countering system is a little janky, it can't seem to decide whether to be easy or hard so it pretty much seems to only work when it feels like it. Skill doesn't appear to play much of a role. While there are lots of outfits to unlock, most of the best outfits are what you already start out with and it takes HOURS of matches against the same opponents to unlock costumes that usually aren't worth unlocking. The biggest problem, though, is that there is no real story mode. You just choose the venue and fight whoever's there and that's about it. The only incentive is the redundancy of unlocking the same old stuff for every girl over and over by fighting the same people over and over. You can create dozens of custom fighters, but you can't enter them into the pool of opponents (which gets quite shallow pretty fast). You can also customize each character in many ways, but those sessions usually end up with just an increase in bust size. Sorry, I'm a guy. It's also extremely disappointing that you can't pick songs from your hard drive as each girls theme music and there's no customizing the entrances either. Too bad. Like I said, this game is loads of fun and will provide hours of entertainment, but what could have been a truly incredible all-girl wrestling experience is held back by a failure to add any depth to the game itself. If you love wrestling games and gratuitous silly sexuality then this is a no-brainer to buy. Just don't expect the same depth other, license-based wrestling games have offered in the past.
Fun in some aspects but not in others

This game is hard to figure out. There really is no rhyme or reason to when you will or what matches will help you to get rewards. This game is definitely NOT for kids!!

i think this game would have been better if they would have had a story mode. like in the first rumble roses for playstation 2. but i thought that the girls looked good. backgrounds could have been tweaked a little better.
Such a sweet smelling rose.

I'm not sure what exactly I was expecting when I loaded up Rumble Roses XX for the first, but I do remember I wasn't expecting to be impressed. So much for pre-judgment.
Rumble Roses XX turned out to be a pretty sweet game.
First off, I have to say, I rarely ever play wrestling games. The last one I played was on the Dreamcast, and I thought it sucked (the game, not the system). So, if there is any common criteria by which such games are judged by, I am unaware of them. I can only comment on what I liked and disliked about the title.
That said, I must say, there wasn't much about the title I didn't like.
Rumble Roses XX, is a wrestling game. All of the standard characters you play with are female. There are a variety of play modes to enjoy and entertain you and your friends with.
The graphics are gorgeous, and I'm not just talking about those lovely polygon models that you wrestle with (though they are, err... composed very well). The stages you play on are richly detailed and beautiful. The soundtrack never seems to be inappropriate; every song or tune seems to match the moment it is played. The character models are well designed and well animated. Most model motions are smooth, fluid and natural looking with the odd exception of the execution of a few of the holding moves. I'm pretty sure most normal people can't bend like these character models can bend.
Graphics, sounds, and pretty polygons are all done very well, but all those points would amount to nil without good game play to enjoy them with. Fortunately, Rumble Roses XX has very solid but simple game play. Nearly all moves are executed by hitting a single direction and a button. Special moves are executed by positioning yourself correctly, and hitting a simple combination of buttons (usually no more than two). The most annoying control issue is the mashing of buttons to escape holds or pins, but that seems to be a universal design flaw among almost all wrestling games I've read about.
You can participate in a variety of different match types against a computer opponent. You have the traditional one on one match, the tag team match, battle royal free for all matches, handicapped matches (two on one), and humiliation matches. With the exception of the humiliation match, in all of these you win by pinning your opponent to the mat or having them submit to a hold.
Rumble Roses XX has in addition to the wrestling mode, a street fighting mode. This is a sort of simplified `Street Fighter' type fighting mode. Your wrestling moves are limited, and you have a `life bar'. You win a round by simply pummeling your opponent until their life bar is empty, and you win a fight by winning two out of three rounds. It does make for a nice change of pace from the normal wrestling matches.
Complementing the primary wrestling focus of this title, there is a collecting aspect that features many things may be unlocked. Each character has many outfits you can acquire. These outfits run the range from very revealing thong bikinis and suggestive shorts, to combat gear and school girl outfits. There is a photo shoot mode where you can take pictures of the characters wearing the outfits you have unlocked while they participate in special activities you have also unlocked (like riding a bike, swimming, or stretching).
Also, in addition to unlocking additional outfits, each character has a counterpart that can be unlocked. The game has a face versus heel arrangement (good guy versus bad guy). Each face character has a heel version you can unlock, and the same goes for the heel characters. Each character version has her own unique outfit and intro movie.
In addition to playing against the computer, there is an `Exhibition Mode' where you can play against up to three friends, and use the outfits you have unlocked. All of the wrestling match types, along with the street fighting mode, are available. I've found this to be a very enjoyable element of the game.
Rumble Roses XX lets you online to play against others, and even lets you share photos you have taken.
There are only three things about this game that annoy me, all fairly minor.
The first thing that I found annoying is that it is a great pain to change a characters costume in the `Exhibition Mode'. You can only change the color of the outfit your wrestler is wearing, or pick her `Super Star' outfit if it is available. To change the outfit to something different you have to exit out of the exhibition mode, load up your single player character, change her costume there, then go back to the Exhibition Mode. Very annoying of you have four people who keep wanting to change outfits.
The second most annoying thing I found about Rumble Roses XX is that it is unclear what you are supposed to do in the single player mode, and how you progress in the game. If it is explained in the manual, I overlooked it. I just kept playing matches until I won a title.
The last thing that annoyed me about this game (and this is really the most minor) is that there was no kind of training mode. I guess I've played too many fighting games where this feature is provided and I've come to expect it.
Over all, I have to say, I enjoyed this game greatly. It's entertaining to play by yourself, and is a great title to bring out when your friends come over.
Unexpectedly, Rumble Roses XX turned out to be a really sweet smelling rose, without any thorns.
Awesome fanservice wrestling game, but ...

This game is a fanservice favorite - the graphics are just awesome. On the other hand, the gameplay has a few inconvenient flaws - specifically, in a tag battle or three way rumble, the inability to break up or assist in a grapple using a third character. This game also has a relatively high learning curve, poorly written instructions and limited online help - if you're willing to play with the game and take a few trial and error losses until you get used to the game, this won't be too much of an issue.
