Looks much better to me. Seems more deliberate and less twitchy than SvR. For those of you that can't view the embedded video, click here.

Doesn't look too bad to me either, looking forward to getting my hands on the demo.

i do like the new broadcast angle...i dont like how it blurs out when a certain move is done...

will it have all new commentary?

# 3 hoop xyience @ 06/02/11 01:48 AM

Still look to clunky and robotic

# 4 Simple Mathematics @ 06/02/11 02:37 AM

This doesn't look different at all.

It'll still be a very early build if it's out in November.

The RKO set-up and execution looked brilliant

I wonder if each finisher will have more than one build-up animation so that each move looks different?

Looks like the video was removed.

Looks great to me. There's some of that vintage wrestling video game hesitancy there where the animations don't flow but it looks much better to me.

Tough to comment too much on spliced footage, but I will say I'm cautiously optimistic. I'd love to see a Legends of Wrestlemania-style pacing to the game.

Randy Orton looks unstoppable!

If this game is still running on the same engine I'll pass.

i agree with you. as the video stated before it ran footage, this video is from early development.

they still look like crap just walking....forget about it, this franchise is dead

# 13 Mike Smoove @ 06/02/11 09:08 PM

Still too much cutscene, need to get back to the No Mercy style of play, let it play out in real time.

Need to see more pin attempts, instead of just the cpu performing a move and watches the down opponent. I think that's one of the few things that holds wrestling videogames back. There needs to be a little more aggression, especially for heel characters. And why can't they simply add submission holds (face get caught in submission and then eventually breaks out of it to change momentum or heel just breaks that momentum build and vice versa). Imagine how authentic it would be.

Obviously this is early part of the game as basic things such as commentary and on screen logos(such as wwehd logo and I'm guessing WWE logo will be at the bottom left of the screen)

But nice to see how the audio of the actual action in the ring is improved and crowd reaction to big moves is improved, though sounds like their reaction for 80% of the match will be the same again.

Looks like only 1 commentators table finally!

It's a good looking game but still seems to fast for my liking.
