    I'm sure some of you have played it or are on the EWB boards.

    If not, simply put. You are the head of a Wrestling Promotion of your choice, you book the matches, storylines etc. Anyone wants it, let me know

    Sounds like they came up with a name for it by picking words out of a hat

    Wasted a lot of time playing that. :)

    Not a fan of Total Extreme Warfare for the same reasons I gave up on Football Management games it became less fun and too over-modded.

    I agree with a on TEW (although never on FM, I love them). Way too complicated and long. Plus don't get me started on the CPU at other promotions

    I like EWR and have played it a lot but can never stick with it long term. I always find it hard striking a balance by having fun with wrestlers I know of and not choosing a fed which either can't compete with a higher one or just blows all the others out of the water.

    I do love getting the chance to book real wrestlers though; my favorite game was when I accidently got both the MCMGs up to 99OVR a :S

    Basically it's a free wrestling manager. It's basically the GM Mode from previous years Smackdown games, but, with the right updates, includes every wrestler, promotion, etc out there. You book shows, decide feuds and matches and try and raise your promotion up to a wordwide phenomena.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_Warfare#Extreme_Warfare_Revenge

    EDIT: Should also point out the popularity can also be attributed to the huge ammount of scenarios available outside the basic up-to-date rosters; for example, I have one which is set when Vince bought out WCW and ECW, and then divorced Linda. Each McMahon decides to start up a new fed from scratch and you choose which to run. Everyone is a free agent so you have to assemble the best roster asap.

    Just to say that after the draft the BWE is going to be unstickied unless we get some new people interested in writing and we can just skip forward a few months storyline wise and restart. If people are interested check the hot links sticky and say so in the BWE thread.

    I'll allow it in this case as it's productive. Usually when it's not allowed its cos its spam/advertising with someone just trying to get people to visit their site. I'ts not like he's saying use that forum not this one. Similarily someone started a thread recently asking how to start ones own PW board, that was allowed but when he started a thread advertising his board as an alternative for boards.ie users mod action was taken against the poster

    This game looks great, but also looks highly addictive :confused:

    Has it ever happened anyone playing this that the game just cancels after doing a show? I decided to give it a proper go there yesterday and after doing a smackdown show the game just did that error thing that modern things just love to do. Any idea why this might be?
