When I heard Acclaim was going to switch to ECW games after losing the WWF license to THQ, I thought it would be pretty cool. Finally this promotion that has a strong fan following since 1993 will be getting its own video game. Well I purchased the game, and found it to be a good first effort. However, if you've already played Acclaim's WWF Attitude, then you might get the feeling that you've played Hardcore Revolution before, as it's basically the same exact game with new wrestlers and a couple tweaks. There are a few bugs in the game, such as announcer Joey Styles referring to wrestlers as "player 1" and "player 2" very often, even though their names are recorded in the game within his commentary. This never happened in the WWF game, so theres no real reason for it to happen in the ECW one - especially since it's the same game engine. Nonetheless, many of the features such as Create-A-Wrestler and PPV Modes have been improved a bit since the WWF game, and the new barbed-wire mode isn't bad as well, but ECW fans deserve better than a re-packaged WWF game, in my opinion. If you haven't noticed, the game is rated M for mature, since there is some mild swearing words and trademark ECW chants in it. The "F word" seems to be bleeped though. Overall, if you're an ECW fan, then you'll love finally having a video game based on them and will like this title - as do I. If you're not a big fan of the group and just like wrestling games with Attitude already in your library, then you might want to save your money for the next ECW title, "Anarchy Rulez". Acclaim promises that one will be released later this year, and will have a new wrestling engine behind it. I hope it lives up to the hype.

ECW is the same thing like WWF ATTITUDE,only worse.ECW's commentary man Joey Styles doesn't talk at all!WWF's commentary is better,they talk the whole time in a match.There's so many flaws in this game,I can't name them all.What I'm trying to say is,ECW ....!

This game is so very lame don't by it unless u want to die of boredom. You will regret it if you by it!
