    It is just the "Total Package" (yeah I know, I am embarrassed of myself for that one), combining great gameplay with fantastic visuals to create one of the finest sports game ever.

    Gameplay can frustrate some, but for all that spend the time to learn the nuances and to learn the feel of the game will not be disappointed.

    Graphically, this is a remarkable program...The action can be very unrealistic, just in terms of physical reality, and that is a major drawback.

    I think the X-box magic is starting to wear off.

    The cast moves around as though they were at the bottom of a swimming pool on Jupiter...these slumberous high-gravity physics weigh down an otherwise fine (though light on modes) game. [Apr 2002, p.145]

    Changing the gameplay system is a step in the wrong direction though, and really takes away from what could have been the best wrestling game yet.

    I hate to be the bearer of bad news for WWF fans, but Raw falls well short of expectations. [Apr 2002, p.62]

    Before this game had blood in it than they remove it. I would give this game a perfect score if they had the blood.

    Lack of modes and match types. Abysmal gameplay. Awkward animations. CAW sucks. A few positives are that I do like the museum and how you canLack of modes and match types. Abysmal gameplay. Awkward animations. CAW sucks. A few positives are that I do like the museum and how you can view someone's Titantron and music. It's kind of fun to see the A.I. duke it out. Not much else to point out. Disappointing. Soundtrack: 7/10
