WWE RAW 2
by THQ (for Xbox)
Description: Wow, this game was a much needed improvement then the horrific burn and crash of WWF Raw. Unlike Raw 2 predecessor, this game is actually good. Still, none the less, it has it's downfalls...Just not as many, or massive, but this game is so much better then Raw. So very better, this game I quite liked it, my cousin didn't like it too much, but I really don't care what he thinks, anyways...
For starters, Triple H actually looks like himself, which is always a good start to any game. I also thought the C.A.W feature was way, way better. There were more body/facial features and parts to it, I also loved the fact that you can completely customize your wrestlers enterance (Rey Mysterio Jump & Pyro, mixed with Lasers) An excellent feature to go with it is that you can put in music from your soundtrack, for me it was Led Zeppelin - Rock and Roll. You can have your wrestler enter exactly how you want him/her to.

The gameplay itself was a much needed improvement, however the controls are still a little clunky, and hard to understand, but the graphics great. One of the only downfalls of the game is the incredibly slow waiting times, it took forever to load. The only other downfall of the game, is the absolutely terrible Season mode. There's no point to it what so ever, it's really so you can win a title. The A.I in season is confusing. For an Example: I won the WWE Championship, clearly one it had the person down 1, 2, 3; other people saw me win it; I was soon jumped by Triple H, and the game said that I didn't win the title. Huge letdown for me, plus there's nothing to unlock, absolutely nothing, no wrestlers, arenas, nothing.
Rating: 6.5/10 for the Loading times, and terrible season mode.
