I'm worried at the fact there is to featire no referee in the game :S

one thing I hopethis game does which the smackdown series forgotall about this year is making the controls for the game a little easier


another thing,Systems: PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, PS2

toward the summer is always a good time to release a game

Surveys show that the Summer is the worst time to release a game. But then I suppose it's good because there won't be as much competition.

well atleast the games will be for ps2 so it can live a little longer

Well so far I don't like this game one bit.

why because of the rosteR?

Yes mostly that.

They can't just throw people in...

TNA has a limited roster.

and as long as you can make CAW's it won't be a problem

Well that sounds interesting to me!

season should be a little interesting to say the least since you have to make a person to actually do it

Yeah, that makes it really appealing. (No sarcasm intended, honestly)

new release date for now is june 2nd which also is my birthday



(yes I know I bumped the topic)

Srry, but some of that isn't true. 6-sides of steel isn't official, titles can't be defended in quick matches. Tables are in, vut cannot break :X. Downloadable content is a no atm, and blood isn't even in.

I don't know if I'm getting this game or not.

Bump if he likes...

This game has gone downhill, with the more info that leaks.

SvR is so far superior. I think I'll rent first.

Blobs you are kidding me to death that SVR is better then Impact.. Sheesh.

when someone said release date of 2nd of june is that worldwide or will australia have to wait for alot longer?

an example of that: rock band (release in australia in september 2008)

Dang,no one cares about austrailia first,sad. (I do anyways :p )

Blobs: WTF,did that promotion finally get ot your head,then

Shave ya Head
