No. No. I said ARE...YOU...READYYYYYYYY?!?!?!

Then...for the members of RU and for the guests as well..

LETS GET READY TO REVIEW A SUCKY GAME!!!

And if you're not down with that I GOT TWO WORDS FOR YA!!!

Read below...


OK, if you're not a WWE fan, I was imitating the tag team DX.

WWF RAW, based off of the TV Show...but now it's WWE RAW but anyways I'm talking about WWF Raw for the XBOX and PC.

Like I've said before, I used to be a die hard wrestling fan, but it died with the decade. I had WWF Raw for the Xbox...I hated it, let me tell you why I hated WWF Raw;

First off, the AI...it's as dumb as a sack of doorknobs, even on the hard difficulties you can easily beat up on the AI and they really don't block a lot and if you're fighting say in a triple threat match prepare to get ganged up on, tag team matches...your partner is useless,you're better off in singles matches. Next, the wrestlers move like they're roboticized, they're stiff. Say you're holding a chair, the wrestler holds it like you'd hold a chair, now if you're holding a one handed weapon [i.e a microphone] they still use the same animation as if you're holding a chair, it's crap. So is Championship mode where you have to fight in matches for the title belts and you unlock hidden characters.

The only good with this game, are the graphics and sound. Each WWE Superstar's music is Authentic...that's it.

My biggest gripe with this game...FRED DURST! That's right the lead singer of Limp Bizkit is in the game, he's in it because in order for the WWF to have permission to use Air Raid Vehicle (Rollin') Fred had to be a selectable character in the game and as we all know, games with Fred Durst as a playable character SUCK (Like Fight Club for the PS2)

Score time:

Graphics 4/5:
Great graphics, the superstars (and Fred Durst) look authentic though they walk like robots

Sound 4/5:
Authentic WWE entrance music

Gameplay 1/5:
Stupid AI, Sucky gameplay

Difficulty 2/5:
Again, Stupid AI makes the game pretty darn easy

Watch the entrances of the superstars to know about the roboticized walking animation, but they're all authentic though:

I'll stick to either the n64 games or Smackdown Vs Raw. After seeing part of the video i said skip this and paused it

Yeah I know, WWF No Mercy is way better than WWF Raw and No Mercy was for the N64!

I don't own No Mercy, but WWF Attitude works for me nonetheless.

Yeah but I'm reviewing the old school ones, even though DOR 2 imo was on the cusp of nostalgia

WWF Attitude is probably the second best WWF/WWE game behind No Mercy (no offense to WM2000.)

Chuck Norris
03-18-2010, 08:56 PM
imo WM2000 was the best of all of them

I have this game for the PC. Cool thing about it is that you can go and get mods for it to update the roster or change some of the music files to put in your own entrance music.

mods or not, sabby, WWF Raw still sucks, perfect example of great graphics, crap game :(

I agree, it's not the best raslin' game. It is way too easy, but I just like the fact you can change it up on the PC if you want.

That's pretty much the only good thing about it

I liked wrestling when I was younger, but I grew out of it, well sort-of. I still will watch wrestling matches from pre-2000 from time to time. I also loved the wrestling games on N64. This game looks terrible.
Nice review, by the way.
