    If you don't have the facility to gather at least two other people to your GameCube, then you will not find much fun in Wrestlemania X8.

    It's one of the better wrestling games available on any platform - except for the one unfortunate flaw that it gets sort of old after only a few hours of gametime.

    The gameplay is just devoid of fun.
  5. Gamer's Pulse

    Lacks any great game modes, the controls are wacky at times, the AI needs some major work and the name just doesn’t fit.

    Here are all the    A very poor wrestling game for the Nintendo Gamecube. At least the games that came after this were massive improvements.

    Here are all the major flaws: The graphics were unimpressive, the BGMs did not fit the game at all, the sound was very low quality, the animations were very dodgy, the roster was really disappointing and lacking severely, the create a wrestler was very limited, the AI was awful and the collision detection was terrible.

    The only good things I enjoyed were the decent gameplay, entrances and the persue the belt mode.

    Only get this if you are a hardcore wrestling fan.    … Full Review »
