    WWE '13 Review (360/PS3)



    WWE '13 adds onto an already solid foundation, and puts the attitude back in wrestling games, both literally and figureatively. While the game still has some flaws which will remind you it's still got a bit to go before it's an all-timer.

    Nice review, pretty much exactly how I feel on the game. Once they patch the bugs (as best they can ) this will stay in my console for a long time.

              Great game. To me it's easily the best since No Mercy. Once I can dive into it some more, it may become the GOAT!!

                if the A.I. hasn't been radically improved then i would have to say this will still be a mediocre, if somehwat fun, game.....it is too bad that they can't create something like 2k's VIP system where you can basically program different wrestlers playstyles simply by playing as them...the last Token Redsuden for dreamcast(which this game is a descendant of) had about 20 pages of programming available for each wrestler and the created wrestlers you made had(in many ways) more intelligence and personality than this game probably will...and that was 12 years ago!...hopefully universe mode is greatly improved, but like the author said, it built up a big rivalry only to have the wrong opponent fight for a title match.Not a good sign

                    The bad a.i. really hurts this game. This game suffers what the other WWE games had and that's it's still a reversal fest. And what's with the a.i. loving to go outside of the ring and do absolutely nothing?

                      Rented the game and returned it back same day. Not fun at all for me. Did finishing move after one punch. Basically the game isn't for single playing use. I was one who grew up with it so having those home tournaments and and holding the belt for bragging rights is no more. I just couldn't get into this game. WWE 12 actually had more hype. I respect how far THQ has come and they are consistent on their release dates, just wished THQ still brought the pain.

                          Thanks for the review, I've been tossing up wether or not to pick this years instalment up.
                          Seems the Attitude Era mode will swing me to getting it, sounds fun for someone who grew up during those years

                            i never understood statements like this.

                            are u saying it should be harder to reverse?


                            personally, i think the A.I. is far from horrible in this game. its actually pretty good and a little improved over last year. go back and play any of the Smackdown vs Raw games. now the A.I. in those game were TERRIBLE!

                            things can always be better but sans the 2 count issue and certain issues in multi-man matches, im having a good time playing the CPU.
                            "on hoping there is a PSN flash sale before Valentine's Day"
                            Man there are no flashers... now what are we going to do for vd
                            I'm sure there's plenty of prostitutes you could pay if you really want vd.
                            yea but will they take psn cards
                            Depends on what area of a hooker you would use to redeem them.

                              What I'm saying is that this game, and others in the series, answer to a 'challenge' is to just increase the a.i.'s reversal rate as you raise the difficulty. There's no pace in matches, instead it's a battle of 'I'll counter the a.i. and the a.i. will counter me.' The a.i. isn't aggressive on offense and doesn't go for their finishers enough. They get most of their offense through reversals and running grapples.

                              The wrestlers don't act like themselves like you see in other wrestling games, like Fire Pro Wrestling Returns where you can edit logic. Because of this, all of these wrestlers feel the same and all of these constant reversals makes every match feel drawn out and boring.

                              And besides the pin issue that you mentioned, there's also a problem with the a.i. leaving the ring for no reason, getting weapons but then drop them, and shaky a.i. in ladder matches. I've been playing this a ton trying to like it, but unless they fix the a.i., I can't see myself keeping it for much longer.
