WrestleMania X8

You're trying to tell me that WWE entrance music (composed and written by James Johnston, and published by Stephanie Music ltd.) is all "stock" music that THQ would have to pay to someone other than the WWE to put in the game?

Wrong.


If you feel so inclined, go dig up WWF The music vol.4 or 5 or any of them and look at the copywright information. It doesn't say "Hardyz music used by permission of Columbia records" or whatever other company.

In fact, if you look in the WWE Wrestlemania X8 instruction book, you will see this:

Words and music by James Johnston. Copywright 2001 Cherry Music Co. (BMI)/Stephanie Music (BMI) Worldwide rights for Stephanie Music administered by Cherry River Music Co (BMI) All rights reserved.

Did you notice the "I think" in there? I'm not sure if that's the case or not. I did hear that though. I think it sucks ass. I want blood in my wrestling games!

Yeah, didn't mean to offend you, just pointing out a fact. And it does suck that wrestling games are becoming bloodless :(

Anyway I finally got around to renting the game yesterday and I have to say, it's not as bad as I thought it would be. At first, I hated the gameplay, but after about an hour I got used to it and was enjoying laying the Smackdown(TM) quite a bit. The HIAC and TLC matches are awesome, and The battle for the belts mode is a cool adittion that will definitely add some longevity to the game. And my god, the tables!!! So many ways to put people through tables!! And there is an infinite supply of them in TLC matches!! It's almost enough to make me want to buy the game. Almost.

You see there are also a list of terrible things in the game that reads something like this.
CAW is freaking pathetic
The Music is screwed up for most wrestlers
The roster is incomplete IMO (No Raven, Tommy Dreamer, Justin Credible?? BOOO!)
There is a serious lack of grapple moves
Collision detection is whack
Sloppy control scheme

So, I know I have been bashing this game a lot but, now that I have actually had some serious play time, I think the game is not as big a dissapoitment as I origionally thought it was. It's not really worth buying, but it's definitely a solid weekend rental.

The Hardyz theme is stock music, regardless of what the CD may say. It's used all the time in ads and at sporting events - for a freakin' year it seemed like every update on the Torch included some nonsense like "I heard the Hardyz music in an ad for a tractor pull! Whassupwitdat?!" The answer they always gave was it's stock music. A great deal of WCW themes were stock, too. You can look this all up at the Torch if you like.
