Visual Concepts and Yuke's have fortunately not made changes to visual and audio aspects of the game pace and flow of the fighting was also reviewed in order to make them closer to what is possible to see in the WWE shows. As explained by the head of marketing at 2K, wrestling matches are not given duration and may well be very short very long. So the developers have made sure to introduce gameplay that makes unpredictable duration of the fighting. According to the editor, fatigue, offensive momentum or stamina will play all three roles in the outcome of a game.

I like this....

[AgeofSandow]

So maybe those old " no sell" animations and cruiser weight moves are back...

[Tamer™]

I'm very happy about this, ring psychology and mannerisms of the wrestlers were always missing in these games.

I have always wondered why THQ stopped evolving the fighting styles for the different categories of WWE Superstars.  The first year they implemented it was cool but they generally stopped changing it until it stayed the same, so I am glad to see 2K are noticing the small details that make a big difference overall.

I have to admit that the fighting styles were one of the few good things to come out of SVR2008, but it was overshadowed by pretty much everything else about that game sucking, especially the attribute point "packages" you had to buy, the fact that you could only build your CAWs' attributes by playing that hideous 24/7 mode.

This year's game really has the potential to be a great one!

The fighting styles were the worst thing about the game! They limited the movesets too much!

Ugh. I completely forgot about that...just goes to show how hard I've been trying to forget SVR2008.  Then again, I never said it was implemented well.
