I saved Microsoft Rewards Points specifically for this, so I ended up getting it for free. I would have been happy paying full price, though, but I’m just having so much fun with the game that I’m biased.
The other person here hit the nail on the head saying that certain modes aren’t fleshed out yet, like the create a wrestler, but it just needs some updates. I am confident that they’ll develop this mode and add a ton of options.
It is such a fun game! It really does remind me of the oldschool wrestling games. They do a great job with making the wrestlers feel unique and exactly like they act on TV (Orange Cassidy, for example, can fight a whole match worth his hands in his pockets). There are a bunch of fun Easter eggs that I won’t spoil for you.
It is noticeable, though, that they didn’t have the resources to devote to the create a character feature. However, this is something that would naturally be updated as time goes by.
Tag team matches are a bit fiddly because you can’t tell your partner to come tag (as far as I know), and sometimes you’ll go to tag him but he’ll come into the ring instead. But the game doesn’t take itself too seriously, so these are minor issues.
All of the mini games are a blast except for one (in my opinion) and they just add a bit of a distraction that spices things up. If you don’t like them, you don’t need to play them, there is no forcing the player one way or the other.
Do comments count? You’re welcome.
It’s funny that something so simple can be a major feature!!
I’ll put my money on “eggs”.
Hahaha, I had written Centrum and replaced it with what was in the article title. I flipflopped!
Fantastic job! What a great Father’s Day gift!
It’s funny that people who thought they were trolling the game were actually contributing to a pretty good organic marketing campaign!
This is exactly right. People who know their stuff and want to dig around advanced settings should be able to do so, but everybody else needs a simple app that works without any learning curve.
I couldn’t figure how to PM using my app (Jerboa), but I’m very interested in getting an invite if somebody has an extra.
I don’t mind. I had never heard of this phone and now you’ve got me googling it. Looks cool!!
I am shocked at how they’re strongarming the 3rd party apps. I’ve deleted my Reddit account - yes, and even my alt - and I’m not going back.
As long as they end up moving closer to the city, I’ll be happy.
Whatever happens, I hope they don’t leave Altitude Gym (bouldering) with no home. That’s the best thing going in Orleans right now!
I was always a PlayStation guy because my friend was, and he was because his friends were. Then, as we grew older, I realized how absolutely toxic those friends were and I wanted to go anything to avoid them online. Right at that time, the Series S and X were released and - most importantly - I discovered what Game Pass was. I sold my PS4 immediately, bought an S (then an X shortly after) and I’ve finally never had more fun in my life.
I remember going, as a highschool student, to a university open house and watching the students in the computer lab playing some tank game (bz?) on Silicon Graphics workstations with the biggest CRT monitors I had ever seen. Good old days!
I’ve always had terrible experiences with 3rd party accessories. I’m very happy that this is the first exception!!
I might try that. I’m not terribly happy with the app that I’m using, but maybe I’m just not used to it.
Those iMacs were incredibly cool back in the day. I never used one, but always thought they were awesome.
I used to love this game even though I was terrible at it.
It would be perfect now, though, to emulate the arcade version and enjoy without going through a million quarters.
