Something looks "off" to me. I like the character detail, but hate the nasty masculine bodies.

There is a muscular definition slider in the character edit mode.

I really enjoyed the first game. It's not the deepest game ever but it plays well and is fun. They are addressing a lot of the concerns with the first game in this sequel (Adding tag team, online play, tweaking the core gameplay, adding character editing) and the graphics are obviously a step up. You should be able to find the first game on the PS2 for $10-20 pretty easily (I see it at Target all the time). Most people I've talked into finally taking a look at it have enjoyed playing it.

I can understand people not wanting to pay full price for the game but I personally think its worth it.
 
Thanks man. Wow! Actual gaming discussion!

I don't own a PS2. I should go pick up a cheap one and some older games. But right now I'm still scooping old DC and XBOX games.

I may actually rent this new Rumble Roses. I haven't bought a wrestling game in years and at least this one has an online mode.

I'm a fan; even went and bought the Japanese version of the PS2 game when it came out since it had some slight improvements made to it.

Basically, Rumble Roses is a simplified version of the Smackdown! games from Yuke's. Similar game play; you use striking and grappling attacks, and depending on where you are in the ring and what directions you press, different moves will occur. You can also do running attacks, jump off the turnbuckle, and do various kinds of submission moves, weaking body parts (the more you target a specific area of the body, the weaker that part gets, making it harder to get out of the submission). Weapons can also be found outside the ring. You can counter grapplers and strikes, which is a bit too easy and I hope is being addressed in RRXX.

The difference between RR and a WWE wrestling game is that RR is more over-the-top. I'm not just talking about the obvious T n' A and character designs, but also in some of the moves that they do; it's less realistic, and because of it, much more fun IMO. The game is not as over-the-top as say, Ultimate Muscle, but somewhere inbetween a WWE wrassler and an Ultimate Muscle game.

I haven't watched the trailer yet, but my only disappointment with the sequel is the lack of new characters. If a Tekken Panda/Bear rip-off is all they're going with, that sucks. It's nice to be able to edit the characters; I'd rather have a completely new CAW mode with original moves the other wrestlers don't have. They need to focus a little more on the wrestling aspects of the game and less on trying to make it like a fighting game, I think.

Remember, Uchida stated this is not the sequel.

Prepare to be pwned by a Playstation3! :D

RUMBLE MANNY DAY NIGHTS ON PLAYSTATION3! :D :D :D

they do have a CAW...you can create chars from scratch or edit any of the existing chars...not too sure about the moves tho
btu I agree with you, I bought RR for PS2, I had more fun with it than Smackdown...it's just more fun. I think...it's not a great game but it's a fun one. I'm sadly getting RRXX on day 1 :lol

You can't start from scratch so there is no CAW. You can only modify the existing characters.

ohhh I thought for sure you can create your own characters, and I went back to listen to the interviews, and yes you can only edit them....:(
sorry

ahh I know what it is...in the dev interview at gamespot, he said that you can "edit the player from scratch". I must have misheard it as creating your player from scratch....sorry...oh well...
 
WAOW!

So you can buy a copy for yourself and a friend! :D

Be a friend worth having and give Rumble Roses! Valentine Day is coming up you fruits - buy a copy for your hetero gaming life mates. I would, but Sea Manky hates wrassling games. WTF?! :P
 
I dunno. I got bored with it two player.

The game engine is pretty basic, so it got to the point where I would tell my friend - "I'm going to do X, reverse it."

He'd ignore it.

Get pissed.

Repeat. :P

So I really hope the PS3 version improves upon the core concept. TITTIES AND MUSCLES, GOOD! Now add a bit more robust game play. I know it's a wrestling game, but Tobal 2 had a better grappling engine.

Don't worry, I'm sure it will, thanks to the extra gameplay chip Sony is putting in the console.

Well in that case hate the player not the game.
 
Looks kind of bizarre... sometimes good, sometimes scary - but probably fine in person. The first game was a guilty pleasure, I'm sure this would be fun enough to pick up...
when nobody's looking.

Glad you can tone the muscles down... fat in the right places ftw!
 
Yeah, but it's kind of hard since that's the only person you have to play against. :P

Still, I'm not entirely placing the blame on the game or the player. Just stating the move set was a bit too shallow for folks that are heavily into fighting games, and I reckon wrestling titles.
