No community creations, short entrances. It doesn't look bad by any means. But not £60 good. Good job it’s not £60 then. In fact, quite a few on-line retailers have got it for around £40. Also your criticisms are what it’s meant to be. I paid £50 for No Mercy the day it came out. £40 for Def Jam 2 on release day. Quote

And at £40, it's still a bit steep. But hey, enjoy it! We all like different things. Quote

Naa I’m telling him he’s wrong it’s £60. 9 hours ago, TheScarlettChad said: It does look good, but no way am I paying full price for it. 3 hours ago, TheScarlettChad said: It just looks very basic.

He also said his first comment was just his opinion (and unless neurodiversity is playing tricks on me, that’s a statement not opinion). I very rarely buy games as soon as they are released. I normally wait for some deal a few months later. But AKI fighting games were my favourites, AEW is a company I enjoy watching, and I hope this does well enough to be turned into an ongoing series. Not yearly updates like WWE 2K do, but I’d quite happily see a Collision named title for example in a few years. What other people do is entirely up to them. Quote

Something's playing tricks on you because there's nothing stopping you from stating an opinion. Quote

His opinion is that it looks good but it's not worth the full price to him (which he assumed was £60 but he still feels the same at £40). That's the sentiment he expressed. So yes, I think you're misreading it and getting hung up on a grammatical distinction that might be there in theory but isn't in effect. Quote

There's no shame in misinterpreting things from time to time - everyone does it, especially online. But you chose to be quite obnoxious with it, laying on the snark with a trowel and then the Princess Bride GIF, so maybe there's a lesson to be learnt here about one's general eagerness to score Internet Points at other people's expense.

Paid Members Weezenal Posted June 28, 2023 Paid Members Posted June 28, 2023 I'm on the fence, not about this argument, but about buying the game. If anyone gets it today please let us know if it's any good. Quote
DavidB6937 Posted June 28, 2023 Posted June 28, 2023 I'd probably buy it but it'd just be added to my collection of stuff I don't have time to play. So I should probably wait until its cheaper.. probably.. Quote
RedRooster Posted June 28, 2023 Posted June 28, 2023 (edited) I'm not going to take any chances on it until the review embargo lifts. It does look fun though, and if it reviews well - or well enough - I'll definitely pick it up. I enjoy the WWE games, but there's no denying that they've started to feel a bit interchangeable.

I've thoroughly enjoyed the game so far and a few times I've genuinely popped for things I've done Like doing a coffin drop off the barricade Can I ask what system you have it on? Quote
Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted June 28, 2023 Paid Members Posted June 28, 2023 Guys and gals Free PS5 upgrade as well for future proofing. £40.95 from The Games Collection. I’d use them again for sure. Quote
CAREBEAR LUVVA Posted June 28, 2023 Posted June 28, 2023 For those waiting for reviews, the embargo lifts at 2pm today. Quote
