3 out of 5 starsScore: 60/100
Pros
  • Still fun to play as a WWE fan as all other WWE games are
  • Huge amount of match types as their always has been

Cons

  • Bad story, isn't nearly as good as previous games
  • Still bad clipping and animation issues

Presentation


Menus are done very well, aswell as the entrances for most characters. Cut scenes before matches get VERY repetitive.

3.5/5

Graphics


An improvement, although they could have been much better. Improving at a snails pace from previous games.

3/5

Gameplay

Very fun to play as a WWE fan. If you're not a WWE fan it would probably still be fun to play. Controls are getting better. Huge amount of matchtypes. Creating characters and what not is fun. GM Mode gets boring after a half an hour.

4/5

Sound


WWE superstars are done very well. The announcers (JR, The King, etc) voices can get very annoying and repetitive.

2.5/5

Online


Fun and adds to the replay value. Can use characters you've created in the game which is nice. Usually no serious lag problems.

3.5/5

Lasting Appeal

Unless you're a WWE fan, a month or two tops.

3.5/5

Overall

If you're a WWE fan, pick it up. If not it's only worth a rent.

3/5
