| #2 Posted on 21.4.03 1937.48 | I don't see Rhyno, Shelton Benjamin, or Charlie Haas. =\
Edit: Or Jamie Noble, Nidia, Brian Kendrik, Sean O'Haire, Molly Holly, and Kevin Nash for that matter.

| #3 Posted on 21.4.03 2150.48 | Hmmmmmm, while I think El Pescado covered the three I would most miss (with the exception of Shane McMahon... what about SHANE?!), this list is also missing (off the top of my head):
Rico
Jamaal
Rosie
Spike Dudley
Jamie Noble
Nidia
A-Train
Jazz
Ivory
Molly
Nathan Jones
The FBI
Shannon Moore
Crash Holly
Brian Kendrick
Kevin Nash
Bill DeMott
Billy Kidman
Funaki
Tommy Dreamer
Piper and O'Haire (though they're pretty new... at least Nash was in last year's game so I don't get the omission)
There's probably more. Rhyno, Team Angle, Shannon Moore, Jazz, A-Train, and Nathan Jones were all included in Wrestlemania XIX, but they're not in the videogame version? Weird.

| #4 Posted on 21.4.03 2158.25 | Instant Rating: 5.44 | Is this one going to not suck, unlike the previous title? Bring back AKI, man. No Mercy was the pinnacle of wrasslin' games. The best, I dare say, since Pro Wrestling on NES or Monday Night Raw for SNES.

I'll bet Theodore Long is on the phone with Johnny Cochran as we 'speak'.

I bet that they will not put in Rodney Mac or Brian Kendrick OR Shannon Moore seeing as how they are such low card wrestlers. I do have a feeling they will keep Jeff hardy in the game though.

To be fair - it's a video game. Everyone can work in a video game.

|  #13 Posted on 28.4.03 0952.00 | Sadly, despite what I've read, the video clips look like it's not very different from WMX8. Even the spots where a guy gets knocked down to the mat and arches his back off the mat in an attempt to sell how badly he's hurting... that's not changed from WMX8 at all.
So far, it looks like only the graphics are different - looking less cartoony. What's going to really suck is if the game reflects the championship situation in WWE -- only five titles (World, WWE, Tag Team, Cruiserweight, Womens).
I was excited about the game until I saw the videos that are all over the net (mostly of Taker vs Rey). Any word on what the storyline mode entails? All I know is that you can ignore those rumors about construction sites and blowing up Vince's boat... sounds more like that's a description of Crush Hour.

No, you can't ignore those rumors. The story mode does have you fighting at construction sites and blowing up Vince's boat.
I read that even though the AKI engine isn't used, Yukes will be plagiarizing the game mechanics to duplicate the popular AKI games. They went as far as hiring some former AKI employees for this project.
How come no official roster list for Raw 2? That game had been announced a lot earlier than Wrestlemania XIX.

| #15 Posted on 28.4.03 1735.12 | I don't know what info you're reading, but it's old news. That rumor has already been proven false. The storyline is that you're fired from the WWE, but Stephanie gives you a chance. You have to fight in a mall and places like that, to earn a shot at a WWE try-out. Then you work your way back into the WWE and up the rankings, where you have the blowoff match with Vince. It's somewhat like Def Jam Vendetta.
So in short, you are wrong. Or maybe just naive.
