| Area | Evaluation | |------|------------| | | Decent for PSP—recognizable faces, basic entrance animations. However, textures are muddy and hair physics are nonexistent (hair is static). | | Arenas | Scaled-down lighting effects, no dynamic crowd lighting, and 2D crowd sprites. Arena geometry simplified (e.g., Hell in a Cell has visible seams). | | Frame Rate | Typically 30 FPS, drops to 20–25 during 4-man matches, Royal Rumble (6+ wrestlers) causes noticeable slowdown. | | Loading Times | 15–30 seconds per match. Optional media install (220 MB) reduces to 8–15 seconds. | | Audio | Commentaries by Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler are repeated and cut off frequently. Crowd chants are generic (“Let’s go!” loops). Entrance themes are mono, low-bitrate versions but recognizable. | If you see videos, ISO files, or download
