Author's Review
In late august 0f 2003 i heard about the sequel to the original RAW for XBOX i was looking for improvement. I did not receive that logic. When i first played i wanted to see Goldberg. So i decided that since it was my first time playing i would fight someone easy like Christopher Nowinski. I had my A** handed to me that night. Unlike SD! all the guys are the same stance. So Molly could beat The Rock if they fought.
There is a huge selection of guys to choose from like The Rock, Austin, Randy Orton, Batista, Victoria, Crash(R.I.P.), Shannon Moore, Rico, and Chris Nowinski, and There is about 42 free spaces. Every character is the same, except they look different and they have different moves. For Instance Stacy can become the World Champion(its happened numerous of times).
There is an ok number of matches to choose from. You can have single match, tag match, Armageddon match(six-men), 3 on 3 (Tornado Only), Ladder, Hell In a Cell, Cage, Table, and Royal Rumble.
Every Match starts out with the introductory card background. Like if Chris Beniot fought Kane in a Singles match it would show the event name (Judgment Day) then it would flash to Chris Beniot who does his taunt then it would flash to Kane who does his taunt. Then it would flash again and say Chris Beniot vs. Kane Single.
The Single Match has options like which ref to use. Whatever you do do NOT use Nick Patrick he is incredibly retarded and he counts extremely slow. First the match starts off with the entrances which are really cool. Then the match starts off with your opponent running towards you EVERY single time. You can do a strike like an uppercut with X button, You can do grapples with the A button. When you press A you grab them first, and then you press A or X variations by using the D-Pad. Like for instance first you press A to grapple then you press Left and X youll do something like a Scissors Kick, or you can press something like Up & A to do something like a powerbomb. Be Careful though if you do the same move three of four times the audience will get sick of the move and your voltage meter will go down.
