Would Probably Be Good...

...If it wasn't a hip-hop game and hip-hop sucks. This is how low the music industry has gone. All you sheep but VIDEO GAMES just because they have big Luda and the guy who barks like a dog, DMX. How pathetic. Horrible gameplay. Yeah, I've played it at a friend's (who's a bit of a wigger, I'm trying to get him to listen to some In Flames and Kovenant), and it's horrible. Go get Mortal Kombat if you want fighting, and if you want hip-hop, go to hell.

Great. A rap-style wrestling game.

More glorification of hip-hop culture and violence towards women. I can see why this title is so popular, specifically in the USA. In this era of garbage like gangsta rap, the jerry springer show, MTV's "Jackass" and "Girls Gone Wild" videos, this game fits perfectly, and will entertain countless numbers of mind-numbed idiots for years to come.

I wonder who was the genius who came up with the idea of glorifying and incorporating hip-hop style violence into a video game whose target audience is made up of teenagers? This game also shows that it is fun to beat up on women. There's already enough gang violence in our nation's inner cities, we don't need little suburbanites to follow in the example of violent criminals.

Only good for Versus.

This is a cool game, good music and all that, but it sucks unless you're doing versus. Forget beating the big-shot rappers with their triple-platinum egos in single mode. It won't happen. The "artists" must have had a special arrangement with EA stipulating that because they be gangstaz and thugz they can't be beat. Even in easy mode they reverse everything you try. Oh, and try playing the white guys in this game and see how far you get in story mode. Hah!

As much as I'd like to slap DMX for his stupid barking, the game simply won't allow it on any difficulty level, even though we know that in his wildest dreams DMX could never fight with the skill he fights with in this game. That goes for all the Def Jam recording artists. Just forget about fighting them. Now, if they were to drive by the ring in a car and spray it with bullets, I'd believe it.

Some of you may blame my inability to defeat the game due to a certian lack of skills.. oh pardon me... "skilz". But the fact is I am familiar with this game engine, having played it on a multitude of better wrestling games. The controls are slow. While you're winding up to grapple, your opponent will hit you, when you wind up to hit your opponent, he will grapple and destroy you. If you do manage to get a solid grapple on him, don't get too happy, he'll reverse it. The same goes for hitting. These people are simply "da bomb", and when they agreed to make this game they made sure that they'd maintain their digital street cred by being next to impossible to beat. If you manage to even get close to beating your opponent if you rope-break, or he kicks out (even when his energy is down to nothing), he'll get a second wind and you'll never touch him again. It makes me ill.

Also, you can't choose which songs to hear like in EA games like SSX, or other cool sports games like Tony Hawk. If DMX is on the mic, he stays there whether you like it or not.

This is a good game to play with friends who won't cheat you out of victory. It IS fun that way, any other way is a recipie for frustration. Rent this game first, and then decide if I just lack the skilz for this stupid game.

LIMITED PLAY

This game could have been so much more but I beat it in the first three days and unlocked every possible secret that the game had thus, the game is limited to a player's freedom in which you could only do so many things for only such an amount of time. EVERYTHING IN THIS GAME IS LIMITED and I now sold it to my friend for a half quarter! This game would have been better if it had the following:
CREATE A WRESTLER MODE
CHAMPIONSHIP TITLES OR BELTS
OPTION ON CHANGING RULES
Then this game would be great but I guess we will have to wait for the sequal for these certain things to come. Anyways I really love the fact that the one and only company with the best controls for any wrestling game ever (AKI) made this game and that is a big positive but the only one I can think of. It's definitely a rent in my opinion and only good playing with some friends or family.

I've never played this game but had to submit a rating to post a review. I'm not a big hip-hop fan but I do like fighting games. If you don't like hip-hop or this game then fine. But just because you don't like hip-hop doesn't mean it sucks. Everyone can have their opinion, but the way you expressed yours was (in my opinion) childish, rude, and offensive. I don't like ska music, but that doesn't mean that ska sucks.

I take offense at the term "wigger." Where do you or anyone else who uses that term get off saying that?! Have you ever thought about where that word comes from?! Hello! Its root word is quite offensive and inappropriate and the variation "wigger" is an insult to both races it refers to.

I suggest you grow up, learn how to express yourself and your opinions like a mature adult, and eliminate the offensive-racial terminology from your vocabulary or at least keep it to yourself...because the rest of don't wanna hear that crap!

Sweet Game!

Even with it set to easy,and an autofire controler, its retardedly hard. The only way to play this game is with cheat codes, but then what is the person of playing it. The rest of it is cool.

Good for a Rental

This game certainly had a lot of hype to live up to, and sadly, it falls short in many ways. It was created by AKI, the company that brought to us the excellent WCW v. NWO Revenge for N64, but this game seems to lack many of the options of that game, and, other than graphics, appears to be a step backward. There is no create-a-wrestler, no weapons, no modes other than basic 1v1, 2v2, 3v1, and so on, and only one story line in story mode. This makes the game have little replay value, and you should have it beaten in at MOST a week. Rent it, don't buy it.
