I am a huge wrestling fan, so when I heard there was a game coming out based on TNA wrestling, I was hoping it would be good. Well, it is, sort of. To start out, there are about 2 dozen wrestlers from TNA (including unlockables). There are no divas aka "knockouts" in this game, which is disapointing. Also, there is no TNA titles you can compete for in Exhibition mode. There aren't many matches to choose from either. They include a Standard match (1vs1 or 3-Man or 4-Man), Tag Team, Submission match, FCA (only difference is the ability to pin outside the ring), & Ultimate X match (The most fun match). The Story mode is interesting and allows you to create your our wrestler. The CAW mode is cool but not nearly as good as the SVR series. The story mode just has you play & win matches until you finally because TNA champion. It takes about 5-7 hours MAX. It is fun while it lasts. Style points are earned through different moves you do in matches. You earn unlockable moves & some unlockable wrestlers with these. Which makes the replayabilty a little higher. The control system is smooth & the graphics are nice. The moves are very limited. There are the high flyers moveset & the power moveset. But everyone has their signature finshing move. Kicking out of attempting pins is hard to get used to but once you get used to it, there aren't many problems. It involves moving the left thumbstick back & forth as fast as you can. You can download 3 playable characters from Xbox Live. They include... ~ Mike Tenay (Free) ~ Curry Man (100 MS points) ~ Petey Williams (100 MS points) Online Play is very lacking. It only allows 2 players max. So only 1vs1 matchups. You can play Standard, FCA, Submission, or Ultimate X matches. You cannot use your created player or the any of the DLC characters. In Ranked matches if your opponent quits, you will not get the win for the online leaderboards and he will not get a loss either. Which is stupid. All in all, this game is fun. But after you beat the story mode and/or unlock everything, you feel pretty much done with the game.Read full review
This a fun game from TNA. TNA is a great show to watch, and I couldn't wait until I received this game. The moves you can do on this game is really fun. The only problem with the game is the controls. It was and still is a little hard for me to get used to them. I haven't played it a whole lot because I don't have the time, but I'm sure if I did, the controls would get easier and I would be able to block the moves from the computer and not get mine blocked all the time. Over all, the game could be a fun game to play if the controls were better.
Very good games and graphics. Can be a little confusing on the controls

one of the best wrestling games ever made. the gameplay is fun and fast paced. the moves and match options are somewhat limited but pretty good considering the games of that time and budget restrictions. the roster is big with lots of unlock-able content with the story mode being the best part of the game imo. .

Graphics are clean, smooth, and awesome! The game is not as deep as a WWE game in terms on moves, match type, and extra bells and whistles. But for a first TNA video game they did a great job. It's enough to make me keep an eye out for the second one.
