I haven't watched wresting in about 20 years, but I may have to at least check out the demo.

Re: WWE Legends of WrestleMania Demo Available, Impressions Here

Reading what you have to do during the match seems interesting. I'll find out if it is in a few minutes.

Limited Impressions:

Much better than I thought.

Defenitly not "sim".

Seems like there's too many buttons in different situations for me. Probably come to me with time. Might be easier (or the same?) for people who played this year's SDvR.

Submissions suck. I put on a Boston Crab, gave it a crank and it was released.

Kicking out of pinfalls has this meter. I have no idea how it works.

Reversals use that "press this random button" system. Is that from SDvR?

Why does my opponent have to be groggy for me to grab a weapon from underneath the ring?

I'll probably give it another try later. Not bad, though. Demo has JR and The King on commentary and a video package for the matches.

First impressions: It's frickin' impossible to beat someone with a manager! Every time I think I have Andre beat, Heenan gets involved.



So far I'm having fun though
