Can a 45-year-old man maintain a marriage and a videogame habit? Let's find out!

First taste of Legends of Wrestlemania

I got my first taste of the Legends of WrestleMania videogame tonight and while it’s full of nostalgia, it’s not a terrific videogame so far. Sure, there’s footage of a young Vinnie Mac in a tuxedo and that’s pretty funny in and of itself, but essentially the game is a nostalgia trip first, and a game second.

While the graphics are nice, the wrestling interface is shallow compared to the average Smackdown vs. Raw title, and the game spends almost as much time showing clips from old WrestleManias that you can play out, as it does actually letting you play the game.

And the modes are few and shallow. Of course, last November’s Smackdown vs. Raw wasn’t worlds deep, either, come to think of it. THQ seems a bit aimless, lately, to be honest. Maybe I’ll like the game better after playing it a bit more.
