The game's visual style actually looks pretty cool. And Macho Man's still got it . . . maybe because he got out when he did.

" Ah, the continuing battle of which is stupider -- fake wrestiing or NASCAR?  Of course, games where you fake-fake-wrestle are stupider then fake-wrestling and NASCAR combined. I don't think I've ever seen one that didn't have shitty models and some of the shittiest animation and collision detection of any game in existence. (Though, I presume the reason the graphics look so shitty in the trailer here is that they're for the Wii). "
I'm not sure why I'm bothering..  but define fake.  Wrestling is scripted and the people involved know the outcome before hand but they still actually hurt each other, you can't "fake" slamming into a mat or falling from several feet off a ladder and the matches tend to be improvised.  Is this any different from say.. the Simpsons where you're watching *gasp* fake people in made up stories?
 
I can't say I've had any interest in wrestling since I was 14 but I don't know why you'd have such hate towards it.

Air-juggling is a wrestling game...? WTF! Someone once said: "Don't attribute to maliciousness what is caused by incompetence". What I mean is, after all the time fans have been asking for a Randy Savage DVD or to include Macho Man in a game, they finally do and its exaggerated cartoony; some would surmise that this is because of the bad blood between Savage and the WWE, but I'm sure it's just the way the game panned out. Too bad, I'm not really interested by such a game, I mean, if over the top campy wrestling is your thing, then why not  just play Ultimate Muscle? 
 
It doesn't even look that good and in 2011 (yes this game obviously must have been developed in 2010), there's just no excuse for that. 
 
I couldn't recognize Randy Savage at first but just looking at the way he moves, even with the sound off, you know it's him. Maybe if the wrestler maker is apt, I'd be interested but...

Looks like an... interesting game. Definitely no SVR, but more akin to the TNA Impact style of gameplay. I trust it'll be entertaining, nonetheless. Curious about how they'll handle the Divas, or if they'll be completely left off.

The game was always supposed to be exaggerated and over the top. They already have the SvR series, why would they do another game in a realistic style?
 
And the released a Macho Man dvd rather recently. I think it was called Macho Madness.

Don't blame the World Wildlife Foundation for the change to WWE. WWE went against the agreement they had with the Wildlife Foundation and were forced to change the name. If the WWE never screwed up, they'd still be called the WWF.

I was hoping he would bring Miss Elizabeth out to talk to the cameras, then get pissed at the camera for talking to Miss Elizabeth. 
 
She was probably too busy washing his clothes or cooking a meal for him.

You know, it's a gift these wrestlers have...to be able to b.s. like that and keep it going, all in character. Say what you will about pro wrestling, but those guys have talent for putting on a show.

@DivineCC:  Obviously it was "supposed" to be over the top, unless you're proposing that one can intend to make a video game and then, all of a sudden, it somehow changes and is different then what the developers have been building for the past 18 months. And that's why I'm not very interested in this game. 
 
"Why would they make another one in realistic style?" Because that's what wrestling game fans buy. When fans finally get to play Macho Man, they don't want a barrel rolling, special effects swooshing, air-juggling Macho-Tekken Man, they want their favorite wrestler as they remember him.
 
Also, if you are referring to the 2009 Macho Madness: The Randy Savage Ultimate Collection, then you should know that that DVD is decried by fans as it contains only matches and no documentary nor any involvement by Randy Savage.

The cut shots between white beard Macho Man and video game Macho Man were just progressively sadder as it went on.

This is going to be the best wrestling game ever released on a console because of three words:

If someone is registered to WWE All Stars game website, go tell the guy who wrote the  article that praises the "Macho Man" Randy Savage that the 1994 "Royal Rumble" game on Sega Genesis was NOT the last videogame he appeared in. He also appeared in various PS1 or N64 games under the WCW brand( now owned by WWE), such as "WCW/NWO Revenge" (1998) or "WCW Mayhem" (1999). 
 
I really wish this game will bring back the arcade fun in place of all that ultra-realistic simulation crap that is still ruining wrestling and sports games, in general.

Or, you know, she's dead.  That was probably why.  Would have been cool though, if not incredibly awkward.
