If you must see this game... Rent it! A good concept, just not executed to it's full potential.

It's not the greatest fighting game ever, but quite a lot of fun. i loved the show and the game is pretty damn good. Renting first is a good idea. Not a lot of replay value unfortunately

Great premise

The show is great, so the opportunity to actually be in control of the celebrities sounds like a dream come true! Unfortunately, it doesn't deliver much. The characters look good, and it's awesome having running commentary from Johnny Gomez and Nick Diamond throughout the match, but you're extremely limited almost from the beginning, and the instructions on how to operate your character are sketchy at best. You'll find yourself mostly just button-mashing in a desperate attempt to make something work. In the game's defense, the "kill moves" are funny and keep in the spirit of the show very well. The game can be extremely gruesome at times (ripping a character's arms, legs, and head off are not off limits) and the language used is sometimes severe (including profanity like they use on the show). Also, the character selection is limited to begin with, and the create-a-celebrity mode doesn't really deliver you that much to work with (you can't really create anyone recognizable). All in all, a great distraction rental for an afternoon or two, but not worth owning unless you're a huge fan of the show.

Just too funny to stay away!

I have alot of the same complaints as others(lack of instruction to be my chief concern but overcome). Yet this game is by far one of the funniest games I have played in quite sometime. Plus it is hard to be mad at the game even when you lose. I mean how mad can you be after ripping off Justin Timberlake's legs and arms! Anyone who wants to laugh until they pee or anyone who loves to see animated violence will love this game, but if you focus to much on trying to be technical and fight with purpose and stratagy then forget it. You just need to get lost in the hilarity of the concept behind this game and just enjoy it. Not the best game ever but for my money one of the best wrestling formated games you can buy.

this game is okay in the begining, the graphics do not have to be good because it is just clay, but the rings you get suck and this game's 'episodes' are sooo easy to beat, i finished the game in less than an hour. It does not feature any of the celebrities of today besides maybe *Nsync but their 15 minutes of fame is up too. half of the characters is just monsters you win as you pass the episodes, i would expect to get more celebs. this game has okay replay value. The thing I did not like the most is you could not pick a specific move, for each button it had several moves that it could do, and sometimes you ran out of that move for a while and that made me mad.. chose for yourself but i wouldn't waste my money if i was you, i am gonna trade mine in tomarrow

Fun game, but very short. Beat it within 6 hours.

Very CHEAP unlockables....

I loved the show,so I got the game.It is funny for awhile,but the same moves and one-liners quickly wear on your nerves.The game ends very quick,but what's really bad about this game is the so called unlockable "bonus" characters to play as!I was under the impression that you would unlock more celebs to play as;that is NOT the case at all.You just unlock stupid fantasy characters like frankenstien,werewolf,mummy,alien etc.

Also the material they used to poke fun at the celebrities seems dated,as if this game was meant to be released a couple years back.Gotham Games could've also added better celebrities to play as and mutilate.I think it would've been funny to see someone like Brittney Spears or Eminem getting impaled or beheaded.But instead they give us Busta Rhymes and Carrot Top!?

Take this one for a rental if you are really bored,but PLEASE do not buy this one!

Stick To the Show

This game is a renter only, ONLY if you have rented a good game to go with it. It should have come out years ago and then it might have been funny. The characters are dated, the dialogue is what you have heard from the show and the game play is controlled by the game. After you play each character once, the fun is gone. Just rent DON'T Buy.

BUYER BEWARE

I am still smiling, thinking about how lame this game is. I rented it @ 9pm saturday, played a dozen rounds with my girlfriend and had the game "beat" by 11pm! 2 hours! In fact, beating the game can be done with the circle button only in 20 minutes. Man would I feel stupid if I bought this. By the way, sorry if you bought this.

Hilarious Game but not good value for the money.

For those of you who don't know... you and another player (or CPU) can wrestle celebritys against each other. Each of the celebritys has different moves that fit with that celebrity's character (ex. Carrot Top "dials down the center" when he punches.) The goal is to kill your celebrity opponent.

The moves on this game are SOOOOO funny, but do sort of get old quick. The unlockables are too easy and boring (I was hoping for Howard Stern). Overall the game is is not the best value since you could really beat it in one sitting.

**It is good to whip out this game for company who havent seen it though**
