Career mode?

No career mode, just exhibition matches.

Though the game does keep track of who holds the championship belt.

I would've bought this, but you can only use created wrestlers via the customizer tool, which isn't compatible with Windows XP. Oh well...

Actually, you can make created wrestlers and rings from within the game itself. It's just that you will be limited to the stock selection of textures that are included in the game. And it's not a very large selection, from what I looked at earlier today.

The PC editor is only there to open the game up to custom -- AKA copyright infringing -- textures.

The good news is that the bank of special moves is pretty rich. So if you don't use the PC editor, your created wrestlers probably won't look like WWE/WCW/ECW counterparts, but they might have the same name and a lot of the same moves.

I did play the demo and it wouldn't be a bad game for $3. I've read there are a lot of bugs, so I may wait until those are patched. I do like to support these indie sports games that give us lots of customization options (like Avatar football).

I"m working on that patch as we speak! lol

I bought it. Its a fun game. I've created some WWE rings and wrestlers with the customizer, which is pretty easy to use. The game tag team elimination matches is where the game really shines. definitely worth the $3.
