Cool, there are now Judas Mesias contact lenses available in CAW mode! In other news, I suck ass at making CAW faces. I'm trying to create Sara Del Rey for reasons I can't quite figure out (most of her moves are probably missing anyway and I don't think she can take part in some match types), but this chick sure doesn't look like her at all. It's impossible to make a decent female CAW face in any of those games.

Stop tempting me. Must resist. Extreme Rules does not make up for all the other shittiness. I laugh at you weak minded puppets who bought the game on release day. The Anal Gnomes (Prefer it to 'buttgoblins') shall control you forever.
Hang on, No Mercy is coming back, and updated? Awesome. that and Fire Pro will make me set for wrestling games. CHIKARA No Mercy CAW Roster, ECW Roster, Legends Roster, or ROH roster? That's my only dilema.

Nice, I'm glad you can get the ladder. I love that. Is the match as fun as it looks? And as for the No Mercy news, thats great. However, how reliable is that? Isn't that a lot of work to update all the rosters? Do you think that they'd actually do that? It would be quite awesome..then my Wii can do something else aside from collecting dust. If you're a hardcore wrestler, you can put the ladder on and do the ol' Terry Funk spinning thing. The match is absolutely great. GASP!

I started to make a Sara Del Rey in SVR2007, but gave up once I realized that the technical moveset is not available to women because of weight class. I figured that there was no point in even trying her at that point. Apparently someone at THQ doesn't think women can do technical wrestling moves.

It's impossible to make a decent female CAW face in any of those games. Yeah, that's true. The fact that I can't make any decent CAW faces even if it was possible in the game probably doesn't help, though. At least my Sara Del Rey's attire turned out surprisingly good even if the face isn't quite top quality. In any case, it looks like we STILL can't take CAWs online if they have text on them, and the various blurs are STILL in full force. F***balls. And at least I managed to somehow fit the "DEATH REY" text on Sara's entrance T-shirt despite the dreaded boob blur. I know. I feel so dirty.

The entrances are usually top notch and exciting and bring a definite atmosphere to the game. One of my favorite things to do is run through all of the entrances the wrestlers have in the game and see how they stack up. I'm going to enjoy this more with the custom soundtracks.

Well, those goblins got me too, and so far the experience has been a bit of mixed bag. The "story mode" is quite strange. Even if I beat someone clean, in 9 of 10 times so far my character acts like got his backside kicked all over the place or will even get put on a stretcher - after I pinned a guy clean, fair and square and without anything which would get my dear created wrestler act like he got hit a with a stinger missile. Then there seems to be a bug in the CAW-mode, does anyone else have the problem with the menus covering the face and body of your wrestler? Trying to move the wrestler in the background won't help as well, I just can move him under the menus, but where's the point in changing someone's facial attributes if the menu covers at least 90% of the CAW's face? The achievements aren't that great on the 360 either as I refuse to play this game online, so there will be some achievements locked forever, but worse, the biggest one of 'em is worth 350 points and is unlocked by wasting way to much time with the 24/7 mode. Some achievements (like the hidden one's) are quite funny and at least one of them refuses to unlock for me... But the game, as it is, isn't that bad, even if many parts seem to be just copied and pasted from last year like the animations after you won a belt, at least it's a good way to spend some time until Mass Effect hits the stores in two weeks.

What are said hidden achievements? I've been interested in knowing since there are 10 of them.

NOOOOO! STEPHANIE MCMAHON VOICEMAIL! MAKE IT STOP!!
Also, I just noticed that "Rock You Like A Hurricane" actually fits Johnny Nitro pretty well. I'll be replacing it with "Light My Fire" in a moment, though.

Jesus...some of those are absolutely retarded (On The Job, Better Luck next Year, Send 'em Back), while others seem on par (Non-stop flights, Rope a Dope, This Year). Interested in the "What the..." What exactly is it that makes THAT an achievement?

I try to describe the move... It's a corner grapple, your're standing and putting your opponent on the floor, so he's liying on his belly. You're putting his legs between yours, and grab his hands, then you're picking your opponent up. Just imagine kind of a standing surfboard stretch and you'll get the picture. Now, while your vicitim is hanging in mid air, your're swinging him back and forth and hitting his head against the lowest turnbuckle. Just watch your green skinned guy do the move and you'll get 10 points as a reward.

So you have to be intentionally bad at the game to win challenges now?

Post by minigolfhool on Nov 9, 2007 22:24:14 GMT -5
I, for myself, find this approach quite funny, there still enough other challenges in the game and some of them are quite tough (winning 30 times in a row while playing online? Seems to be quite the challange if you're facing kids with powerful caws day in, day out). In unrelated news: According to mygamercard.net I'm currently on the 21st rank of the worldwide leaderboards for SVR 2008. Hooray for wasting time on getting useless gamerpoints!

BIG question:
Are women banned from almost all the match types again? Can they at least do 6-man tags and 6-man battle royals?

BIG question: Are women banned from almost all the match types again? Can they at least do 6-man tags and 6-man battle royals? Yeah, they seem to be banned. At least when I created Sara Del Rey I was only able to choose Ironman or Submission for her speciality match. Didn't try a 6-person tag or any battle royals, though, so I'm not sure about those. Well, at least we can give female CAWs submissions and technical moves this year... In unrelated news, Johnny Nitro now has the greatest entrance in the history of sports entertainment, featuring pyros synced to the beginning of the chorus of "Light My Fire", more pyros coming out of the ringposts and stuff like that. Now if he only had his current name, look and the slow-motion effect in his entrance it would be perfect.
