Revenge Mode Plot: A player must select a WWE superstar. The story begins with the player being dragged out of an arena by security guards and being literally tossed on the street. Later, the player encounters Stephanie McMahon. Stephanie notices that the player wants revenge on Vince McMahon for firing them, and the player and Stephanie devise a plan: to ruin Mr. McMahon’s flagship pay-per-view: WrestleMania. To do this, Stephanie sends you to various locations and you must assault the various characters you encounter in each location, destroy WWE property, including blowing up an under construction skyscraper, crashing a WWE barge, wrecking the cars in a WWE parking lot, and so on. In the process, you also kill a multitude of security guards and WWE personnel who attack you with wrestling moves by throwing them into moving traffic, off the top of the skyscraper, and off the edge of the barge into the water below, eventually going on to ruin WrestleMania XIX. Created Wrestlers may also be used for this mode.

This game was OK.

Pros: The first thing I remember from this game was animation look so much better from the last game, you can check superstar’s profiles to see how you are improving buy winning matches, Tutorial mode was a worthy edition, The graphics are pretty good, the character models are Alright & you can has the options to switch your wrestles skins were ever you like before each match.

Cons: The voice acting was atrocious, Revenge mode was fine at first then got too compatible & the create a superstar mode was a bit DUD.
