Far Cry 3 And The Stranger In A Strange Land WWE ’12 is a game that theoretically should have been awesome. Between throwing someone through a table or a totally sweet cage match, this should be a great party/fighting game. Unfortunately, the controls keep amateurs out of the ring and given the way WWE ’12 is designed, you will be explaining what every button does each time you play with someone new.
The latest playable version of THQ’s grapple-happy sports entertainment franchise packs in more legends, ladders and leg drops than ever before. Not happy with the storylines on Monday Night Raw? Wish the some up-and-comer was getting a bigger push? You can make it happen for yourself when the game hits stores next week.
Randy “Macho Man” Savage died in a car wreck in May, two months after ending an estrangement with the WWE/F by appearing in THQ’s WWE Superstars. Savage, one of the greatest superstars in professional wrestling history, will also appear in the series’ flagship video game WWE 12 when it releases its Legends stable of wrestlers in January.
In my humble opinion this year’s WWE All Stars made every other wrestling game released in the last decade appear stodgy and unplayable. It seems like THQ agreed. Instead of going for another annual release of the Smackdown vs Raw franchise they’ve skipped a year. WWE ’12, a complete reboot, is the end result.
