redsoul Wrote: actually alpha, In HCTP, you could only chokeslam or lift big show with stacy if it was a special. In SVR you can't with stacy at all. Specials are undergoing the weight detections system. The camera's are now going to be Tv style. Ring in center , ramp to the left. The reason there are less on the roster is because all the main wrestlers are the ones who made the cut. Well, a few jobbers made it...but everyone is much more detailed than last year. The grapple system is way more detailed than last years. the power grapples are hard to hit but signature are supposed to be easier. Royal rumble looks to be the best I've ever seen. I swear it looks very close to like in real life with the struggles at the rope. judging by early movies and early previews and talking to those with the beta it's alot more polished.

Really, then how is someone like Rey Mystrio gonna beat the Big Show?

I wouldve really liked if they added newer wrestlers like Kenzo Suzuki, Mordecai, Renee Dupree, Luther Reins, Eugene, Tyson Tomko, and all that, I might try this game, but I'll probably keep playing HCTP for another year.

Enough of all these wrestling game threads!!! When are we gonna get an online wrestling game already?!!! ....Huh?? What are top 10 favorite wrestling titles? Oh, well here...


1) WCW/NW0 Revenge
2) WWF No Mercy
3) WWF Wrestlemania 2000
4) WCW Thunder (the live entrances did it for me)
5) SMACKDOWN Shut Your Mouth

I can only think of five out of the ten.

I don't understand how anyone can say that Wrestlemania XIX is bad. It's got beautiful graphics, outstanding gameplay, large roster and one of the best Create-a-Wrestler modes I've evr seen (you can even customize your CAW's entrance). The only weak point is the Revenge Mode, people won't stop complaining about it.
Once you get the hang of the Paint Tool in WMXIX's Create-a-Wrestler mode, the possibilities are almost endless. Even though I didn't create the said wrestlers yet, I already made these logos in the Paint Tool:
-Glacier's "Ice Spike" design for his shirt.
-Diamond Dallas Page's "Diamond" design (with the letters D.D.P written underneath).
-Mordecai's symbol (it's very difficult to make, looks like a Crucifix but a weird design)

Just how many wrestling games out there allow you this much creative freedom ?

It's CAW mode was decent at best. It was the worst of the year's CAW modes, the top spot going to Smackdown, and Raw 2 allowed endless possibilites for the entrances with the inclusion of putting in you're own songs. I'll agree the graphics were awesome, especially the detail that went into Brock Lesner and Rey Mysterio's large tattoos. Revenge mode made no sense (at one point you throw security guards to their doom. Where does that fit into wrestling?) the unlockable charecters were a joke (A football player, and some other forgetable jobbers), everyone walked the same robotic way down the ramp, and the collision detection was waaaay too sensative making multiplayer ladder matches very frustrating. Infact the only good thing I can say about the CAW mode was that I was able to pull off a really good Vega, and a decent Freddy, but I couldn't make anyone from the TNA roster, which was very simple to do in Smackdown HCTP.

With a bit of creativity, HCTP really had the most freedom in a create a wrestler mode. All you had to do was figure out how to layer things to get a perfect model.
