This year, every Superstar will have six abilities. This means that single grappler can have the ability to remove turnbuckle covers as well as the ability to bash himself over the head with a chair to regenerate limb damage. These abilities are now independent. There's no longer a title you have to worry about.

There's a more appropriate amount of echo in the ring announcers voices; there are four different crowds that will show up in the game's arenas; when a ref's counting a pinfall or ring out his voice now sounds as if it's coming from inside the ring and there are no more big, hokey numbers that pop up on the screen; and when Superstars such as the Undertaker perform finishers that end in a pin, the game's going to make the move flow so that the sequence doesn't end in a rope break. The character models look sharper than ever, the entrances are grand, we don't even know all the features yet, and there's going to be downloadable content.

Really relieved to hear about these facts.

Damn! This game sounds fuckin sick!!!! From the Inferno Match to the Tag Teams to the no loading screens when the superstars enter the ring to the popping up like HBK to the main eventers being harder to beat. It's awesome and I love every second of it.

Doesn't seem like there are any solutions/improvments to the number of problems with last years game, which is much more important than adding more and more stuff every year like they always do to disguise the fact that no development is being made with this game. Not impressed at all.

Only thing I really like so far out of that recent info is that the tombstone etc wont end in a ropebreak.

I'm genuinely excited about this game, although caution is necessary. We have had more of these good-looking reports in the past, that eventually resulted in us all being dissapointed.

I'm really looking forward to Create-A-Finisher. You could seriously own with a created finisher, like hitting a Pedigree, then 619, and a Sweet Chin Music in one move!

Usually around the 9th of November.

I'm going to have a finisher that is like an powerbomb, then quickly changed to the walls of Jericho.

Have no idea what to call it though.

I hope Carlito has the ability to spit apples in the game

[craguuscool]

First of all, this game looks awesome. Everything I read about it was good and I like how the titles and stuff will look more realistic and the tags and whatnot and did anyone see that pic of the WrestleMania 24 Set? For those who didn't:



If I say so myself it looks pretty damn cool.

pretty sure you can't link 3 finishes together like that. that would just be over-the-top ridiculous.

this is a hands on PREVIEW of the game. only an hour was spent playing it, and it wasn't the final build. why on earth would you expect them to spend time on a preview discussing solutions to old problems when 99% of IGN's readers want to know about 2 things: the inferno match & create a finisher. honestly, you just have blind hate for the franchise to make a post like this bashing it. how do you know there aren't any solutions? why does it seem like they haven't made any? because an IGN staff member spent an hour with the game and used the time to try out the new additions for his preview rather than focusing his hype piece by talking about last year's game? please stay unimpressed because i'm not impressed with your baseless assumptions at all.
