Despite having many hands-on exclusives, tons and tons of footage and a weekly update for fans with new movies, pictures etc. Despite being given all this exclusive content early build and other stuff...

IGN have given WrestleMania 21 a 6.0

Wouldn't have thought it was possible, for a site like IGN, given so much free stuff to give an honest rating like that after 6 months of their own hype.

Good stuff.

Now about this Driver 3 awfulness...

IGN, Gamespot, other top game sites and of course magazines have been bought out on many an occasion. It's the reader reviews you should go for.

And considering reviewing games is their professions, they're doing a crap job of it.

IGN still suck. GameCentral gave Sudeki 7/10, IGN gave it 9.9

I wonder which one I trust....

That not being able to preview moves and stuff seems really stupid too. Can see how it will get annoying when you're trying to choose all the moves, etc.

Also, if only they coulda put in the Royal Rumble online with loads of players - that would have been so damn great. ;-)

AKI are the only people who know how to make a decent wrestling game. Hopefully EA will pull their fingers out and get the next Def Jam game online.

If the constant holds and elbows can be done on live it'll be a big pain, so bad it'll stop me getting the game if I readtoo many complaints about it - thankfully Live allows for patches so if they're smart it'll be fixed for Live.

Wouldn't be so bad in 3+ fight though.

What got me thinking twice on buying the game was how once you're on the ground, you can be kept there with constant elbows and holds, never getting the chance to get up again.

Not so bothered about the AI cause most of the competition will be on Live anyway.

The AI points are valid.

The point about collision detection isn't. I hate it in the old smackdown gameswhen you can get knocked down whilst getting up, sure it's realistic but it's NOT fun.

That's why AKI always left that sort of thing in: people like to be able to get up in a dman wrestling game! :D

I think it goes into the 'when it's cheap category' as it does sound fun. Still very impressed with IGN for not giving it an 8 or even a 9 because of all the exclusive coverage they were allowed to do.

Yeah I was left a bit gutted when I read the review earlier, cause I was looking forward to that game. Guess I'll be giving it a miss now. :-(
