Yeah, the create a wrestler, roster and match types are very limited. The move sets are poorly done. The entrances are shortened, they only come up the tunnel that TNA have. That's pretty much the majority of the game.

The career mode isn't great and I don't like that fact, That, you can't play as another character.

But, the thing I enjoy about TNA, that I don't really think is in SmackDown! vs. RAW, is that some of the moves in TNA yuou have to time better. I think.

Is Legends Of WretleMania any good?
Any won into Call Of Duty 4 (despite the fact that it's rather old) ?

Legends of Wrestlemania is an extremely well done game. I had fun playing it, and it's something which has good replay value. It's got an arcade style of playing, which makes a refreshing difference from the Smackdown series, but still keeps the features and extensive movesets. It also has a huge reliance on timing, so from what you've said, you should enjoy it.

The demo gives a good indication of the game, and lets you explore a lot of the game before buying, so I'd at least recommend you try that.

Arcade style? Don't understand what you mean, Stig?

And by the sounds of things, I probably may enjoy it.

It's as if you're playing it in an amusement arcade, so you only use a joystick and the 4 buttons (A/B/X/Y or square/triangle/circle/x depending on your console of choice).

Now I just know your opinions are shit.

iMPACT is the worst game I have ever played.

I'm afraid I have to side with The Stig here, iMPACT is easily one of the worst, if not THE worst game I have ever played in my life. It was that bad I was considering paying someone to take it off my hands.

I'm currently playing Guitar Hero: Metallica, and am thinking about giving Splinter Cell: Double Agent another bash.


Why is iMPACT so bad in your opinions though?

The control system made little to no sense to me, and that was after I watched the tutorial movies on the game and constantly referenced the manual when trying to play.
The fact the season mode only let you play as one guy, and even then it was only some guy who was created for the game & not an actual TNA superstar.
I played it for maybe a half hour to an hour and then I totally lost interest & had no desire to ever play the thing again.

iMPACT! Was based on Suicide right? And TNA still put Suicide over as a videogame character. It's diffrent but to me pretty shit.

Impact was shite...bought it and got rid of it within a few days

Legends of Mania is fun...not as good as SD vs Raw, but fun to play for nostalgia...and the fact you get to see old clips of old feuds is cool

COD4 was excellent, but IMO COD: World at War is the better one, the next COD game will be a cracker I think

Currently playing either Resident Evil 5 or UFC 09...really getting into both games....just got my ass handed to me by Frank Mir in my UFC career Evil or Very Mad . Res 5 I am really into...I'm at a boss called U-8, I think hes called that anyway...some fucking huge spidery thing!

Going between a few things at the moment. Going throught the career on fight night round 3. (won around 24 fights, lost 2 bouts due to just going in there and blowing myself out in the first couple of rounds DOH!!!) Messing online with Ghostbusters, and COD 4. and having the odd versus bouts with resident evil 5.

I've won all the tournaments in Brian Lara 2005 and I'm now getting my custom player's stats up in order to win all of his cups. Last night I won the first Test against Australia by 305 runs. ninja Also trying to win all the leagues in PES 2008 (only 2 left!) As you can tell by the years of these games I don't get that much free time anymore!

Sadly I have also got back in to The Sims 2...

The Secret of Monkey Island. No, not the Special Edition. The original via Scummvm. Nostalgia heaven. Easily one of the best and funniest games ever.

It is, but if you enjoy the genre. It's classified as a first-person shooter (but with third-person view) with RPG elements (stats and perks that act as your abilities), but a much slower paced game that features strategy moreso than run-and-gun action like Halo or Call of Duty, particularly with the VATs system which allows for targeting cinematics. The world is incredibly expansive and I find it much more fluid and interesting than Bethesda's robust, yet lifeless previous game Oblivion. Content is always readily available. It is quite buggy since there's so many different variables with the sandbox design, but that's been Bethesda's calling card for years now. I personally love the game, and maxed the achievements (before the DLC arrived). If you do enjoy it, you'll easily drop 100+ hours into it.

Also, you could always wait at this point as I'm not doubting a "Game of the Year" edition or something similar where they stuff the five expansion packs for it into one package much like Oblivion did with it's DLC content however that might not be released this year.

Or you could even wait for Fallout's next game, "New Vegas" slotted for next year and most likely more action-packed or Borderlands, the 4-player co-op game much in the spirit of Fallout.

Beat Mirror's Edge tonight. Fun game, a bit frustrating at points and happy that a sequel has been announced despite poor sales. Planning on running through on hard again but I didn't use a weapon last time, but I have a feeling I'm going to need one this time.
