Looking good. This game would easily get 9.0+ across the board if they would just get rid of the terrible move animation and collision detection.
Ding Ding Ding! Yep, it's the collision detection that has bothered me since WMX8. How in the hell did they manage to think that that actually happened in wrestling? It's like they're taking real-life basic physics (Hit guy, guy fall down) but applying it to the most IDIOTIC situations ever and not creating a specific falling animation to go with it.
Also stupid is the concept of using a Lying-Down Top-Rope move (Say, an elbow drop) on a STANDING OPPONENT. I just cannot fathom how they can consider these inclusions to be positive ones for the series when they may be the most unrealistic things ever in the realm of professional wrestling games. Ugh.
It is LOOKING good, and I have some faith that it might come together. But, by all accounts, I'll be renting this and waiting for a price drop, because I have little faith in their ability to get it right.
Here's hoping THQ signs on for Revolution and puts up its Wrestling Library for sale, because it's the only way we'll have a good wrestling game next generation, at this rate.
