Okay folks, in my humble opinion, this is the stand-out title for the X-Box. Releasing on Nov. 15, this game is sure to be a hit. Made by THQ, the same creators of WWF No Mercy and the Smackdown series, this game looks to have a great future!
The visuals are outstanding! These are great folks. You can actually see sweat coming out of wrestler's bodies! There will be blood, and it can stain the mat. The wrestlers look incredibly real! HHH looks just as built in the game as he does in real life! The arenas look fabulous. I can't explain it, it is just outstanding!
If you've watched wrestling, then you know that if a very big move has occured, they'll have a picture-in-picture window replay of the move that just occured. So, they'll have two screens. One of the match happening, and one of the replay. The same thing happens in this game! It will feel and look like an actually Raw broadcast!
According to IGN, the controls are "tight and responsive". So, controls look to be a big + in the game.
Now, visually, this looks better than PS2's Smackdown Just Bring It, BUT there is something bad about the game. Unfortunately, this game doesn't have as many features as Smackdown Just Bring It (which has over 70 match types and an extensive Create-A-Wrestler Mode). There are NO ladder matches. No table matches. And no TLC matches. There will, however, be six-man matches. Bra And Panties match type was announced for the game, but isn't implemented in it yet. We have yet to see if it will actually take part in the game.
The game does play smoothly, so gameplay looks to be in good shape too.
I'll have more info when I get it.

yeh GT3 is crap i dont like it it is just GT1/2 with better graphics
Its not really, i have a PS2 and GT3.i think that you have said that without atually playing it long enough to see and drive on the 40 - 50 tracks, over 300 cars, and loads and loads of tournaments.
You might not of seen these because you need to unlock them, on arcade you have to unlock most of the tracks for that mode and you can unlock loads of cool cars.(and the music is alot better too)
