Maybe they'll put him in the WWE hall of fame now.

You know, if you play the WCW version of MM's Pomp & Circumstance entrance theme, your avatar seems to sway to the music almost perfectly.

Is Will Ferrell going to make a special appearance in this game?

We know from the melee scene in Anchorman that the man can throw down.

I wasn't sure about this game when they you can about 5 moves at once, but seeing the previews about all weekend, it may not be too bad. It has Steamboat and Savage, I guess it came out today, you can download the Honkey Tonk Man.

On WWE.com, they are listing matches you can have, which don't sound too bad, like Bret Hart vs Edge, Warrior vs Sheamus, Miz vs Piper, and Punk vs Jake the Snake.

I did wish it had more of the old tag teams, like Demoliton and the British Bulldogs.

Yes you are right. Hours upon hours of videogame playing at EIU with that game alone.

No demo out yet, Im not buying this game without trying it out first.

According to WWE.com, the demo is coming out today, looks like the Ultimate Warrior vs Rey Mysterio.

Downloaded it last night and played a few games this morning. I'm thinking this is going to be something I purchase now. It looks fun/interesting.

I wish they would have the demo & downloadable wrestlers available on the Wii. I guess going without such things is the price one has to pay for having the most bitchin' system around.

Downloaded the demo the other day. I like.

I think I'll trade in my Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 for this when it comes out. I like the over the top stuff. Loved the old Wrestlemania Arcade back in the day (Not the one with Sgt. Slaughter, the one with Razor Ramon).

This is actually a pretty cool game. The issues I do have with it actually are due to the limitations of the Wii- No online play, no dlc's. The CAW feature is not at all deep, you only can use movesets from the wrestlers in the game, and to start only 5 finishers are unlocked (Cena's, Savage's, Hart's, Piper's, Rock's).

Also, a lot of the stuff to unlock, such as alternate attires, are unlocked only after playing one of the three championship story lines. I don't know if anyone really wants to go through these stories over and over just to get all 30 wrestlers alternate gears.

Some might be bothered by the controls, it's kind of a "button-masher" type of game, but it takes me back to WCW/nWo Revenge. There is a nice variety of matches, singles, tornado tag, handicap, steel cage, elimination (single, tag & handicap) & extreme rules.

The lineup is great, unlike the last Legends game WWE came out with, you won't find King Kong Bundy or Hacksaw Jim Duggin. All the Legends in this game are top level stars (along with Ultimate Warrior).

One cool feature is Fantasy Warfare, which a current "superstar" and a Legend face off in some sort of theme. For instance, Stone Cold faces Punk in a match for the title of "Superior Lifestyle" or Hogan faces Cena for "Biggest Douche in Sports Entertainment".

Because of the lack of depth in CAW and the lack of downloadable stars/online play, I'd give this game a 4/5.

I've been going back and forth on getting this now. I have SvR 2011 and I'd most likely get rid of it if I bought Allstars. Not sure if that would be a good idea, though...

Yeah, I don't know if you'd want to do that. All Stars is a cool game, but comes up a bit short in some areas. (that's what she said!)
