Review by Josiah

""A very fun game to play, especially on the go!""

I cannot understand why I am the only person so far to give RTW a 10 score, this game deserves better than 2, 3, or 4. This game is very fun AND it's portable. Very stunning for a GBA in my opinion. You can even see distinct people in the background with readable signs. Well, before I relentlessly begin to talk, I'd better get on with the review.

Gameplay:
RTW is a very fun game. Along with the fun factor, there are many fun moves to perform, and even the finishers of wrestlers. The control is easy too, just read the only Walkthrough/FAQ for RTW to see the controls. All in all, the variety of wrestlers and the moves makes this a very fun game. The only possible drawback is how slowly the referee counts the 1-2-3. Although it isn't TOO bad because then you have the chance to beat up your opponent even more and then you can pin him ;).
Score: 10

Story:
Well, I guess there kinda is a story. Whichever wrestler you pick will be forever battling in the WWF to try to gain all of th available belts. You will perform in cage matches, hardcore matches, and even be asked by some people to be their partner! Okay, maybe that was the objective, but oh well :).

Audio/Video:
I love the sound of smashing a chair over someone else's face, don't you? Ah, priceless. The music makes it feel like you are at Raw and the sounds sound (no pun intended) so real. The graphics are great too, with vivid descriptions for each wrestler and great entrance music. I especially like Kurt Angle's, Kane's and Triple H's theme music. Kurt Angle's music is my second favorite, Kane's is my favorite, and Triple H's music is just really cool.
Score: 10

Replayability:
RTW has a lot of replayability, since it is fun trying to perform all of the wrestlers' finishing moves. It is awesome VERY fun to listen to each of the wrestlers' theme music, which some are VERY impressive, especially Kurt Angle's, whose music I love!

Buy or rent?:
You should definitely buy it. Although this is a short review, RTW has much replayability and you'll find yourself playing it alot.

Final Word: RTW industrialized the future fortune for portable wrestling games to come (in a very good way).
