Also is it just me or does the color of the game change/get brighter when you do some kind of move?

Yeah I noticed that, I think it's just there to emphasize the move. I actually liked it. It only happened on certain moves and was infrequent.

People ask for it all the time. I always thought they were overrated. Not bad just not as good as everyone seems to think they remember. I'd rather have Spike take over as dev if THQ goes under.

So I just played the demo (haven't read all the responses thus far, sorry). All I have to say is: I hate F'n button mashing. That is all it takes for me to not like the game. This is the 21st century with a PS3/360. I should not have to button mash. EVER!

Yeah, I understand they want an 'old school' feel, but that shouldn't mean 'old school' (read: crappy, inferior*) controls. Sometimes I wonder if the developers are actually gamers.

What does old school feel have to do with button mashing? You can not even button mash in this game and get good results.

I take it that if you do not like this game you must really not like the Smackdown series. Could you please explain what it is that you do not like in more detail? I find the game fun and entertaining, it is also different in its execution than other wrestling games. Regular moves, chain moves, finishing moves, turnbuckle moves, apron moves, outside ring moves, special moves plus finishing moves, meaningful taunts and 3 tiers. What do you not like the control mechanics?

You need to play it more than an hour and understand how the controls are meant to work. It is not a button masher by any means. There are countless people on gaming sites who dismissed the game when they started playing for a little bit and then found out they loved it when they understood how the controls worked after awhile.

Firstly, I do not discuss anything with people, online or not, who are condescending, so quit telling me that I'm not doing it correctly. Secondly, yes, you do mash buttons to make your wrestling stand up and for some of the mini games (some grapples and submissions). This is the 21st century. I'm not going to do that. Otherwise, the controls don't bother me (as assumed, and you know what assuming does, which it did).

Yeah, I'll play it a bit more, but I don't see myself liking the button mashing. I only button mash when I play old games, and that is due to nostalgia (WWF Raw on SNES...oh I love that Royal Rumble).
