Dream Wrestling Game
Posted: Sat Oct 29, 2005 5:11 am
1st of all, the game runs off of AKI’s famed VPW engine, the best game engine ever made for wrestling games.
Modes of Play
Exhibition: You should know what this is. & yes, titles can be defended here.
Season: No storylines here, just straight up rasslin’. You can play for a near indefinite number of years.
Championship: This is where the storylines are. It’s basically the same as Championship Mode from WWF No Mercy.
Online: All exhibition matches can be played online.
General Manager: You take over as boss of a promotion (either Raw, Smackdown, WCW, ECW or 1 you create yourself) where you can book shows, hire & fire superstars or start selling merchandise. You “win” by putting the other promotions out of business (you can still keep playing if you want afterwards).

The culmination of CAW, CAPPV, CAB & any other creation features to have shown up in wrestling games. The list of things you can do:
1. Name your Promotion
2. Name your weekly show (You start off with just 1. A second show will cost you a great deal of money)
3. What day of the week your show is on (This can be changed at any time while you play. Putting the show on the same night as a rival Promotion’s show will put you in a “ratings war”)
4. Create PPVs.
5. Create belts (will cost you for each one. If you’re a real cheapskate you could go without any belts but their needed to help you gain popularity)
6. Using the paint tool to create logos for your promotion & shows
7. Create an Arena. Decide rope colors, stage props, etc..
8. Hiring the Promotion’s default superstars (CAWs are cheaper, but established superstars on the other shows bring in better ratings ticket sales)
Create-A-Superstar (inexplicably called CAW for short) features
1. All clothing options ever featured in past games are here plus lots of new ones.
2. Paint tool for creating logos/textures.
3. Create-A-Entrance complete with the option to import music & video from a memory stick as well as a Create-A-Titantron.
4. You can create as many wrestlers as you can fit on a memory card/hard drive.
5. Stable/Tag Team creation is in as always.
6. Attire options include Match, Entrance, Cut scene & B&P (So female CAWs can actually be in Bra & Panties matches)
7. Use the Eye Toy or similar device to photograph your face on a CAW.
