Background:
Total Extreme Wrestling 2005 takes its lead from its predecessor allowing players to take on the role of a wrestling promoter, where it is up to you to try and steer your chosen company to the top of the industry, along the way dealing with prima donna superstars, wars and alliances with other wrestling companies, and the demands of TV corporations! With improved graphics, faster loading times and superior AI TEW2005 will prove to be the most addictive wrestling simulation ever.
Features:
Create-A-Storyline and Create-A-Angle - Creating a storyline takes the form of a script - you put together any combination of angles and matches that you want, together with what each role is, and how you want it to unfold.
Momentum Meter - Perhaps one of the most key new features, every worker has a momentum meter for each promotion that he works for. This is a measure of how hot he is at that moment. The meter rises as he wins, takes part in angles, and fires off great interviews, and goes down as he loses, or is involved in a dull segment.
Grades - The different statistics in TEW2005 remain in the form of being between 0.0% and 100.0%. However, these are not visible to the player once the game begins, but instead are translated to grades, ranging from F to A*.
Promotion Relationships - The companies in the game can now have relationships, just like workers. These range from all out war, where you bad mouth the opposition at every turn and are constantly trying to steal workers from each other, to non-aggresion pacts, where both sides agree not to approach workers under contract with the other, to talent trading agreements.
New Game World - The game world remains in the format of Areas, Regions, and Locations, but with a twist. While the game areas (North America, Mexico, Japan, UK and Europe - Australia has been removed as it never seemed to be used by anyone, ever) and regions within them are set, the locations (the cities or arenas within each region) are editable, meaning that the player can customize the game to have as many or few locations as wanted.
More Detailed Wrestlers - The wrestlers themselves are far more detailed. As well as having full title and match histories (as in WreSpi), there is a host of new statistics, including: Strong Style, Acting, Consistency, Injury Proneness, Hardcore, Intensity and Flashiness.
New Morale And Disciplinary Procedures - Morale has now been updated; rather than being a value that can wildly fluctuate, it is instead based on several set factors, meaning that it is modelled much more realistically.
Improved TV and PPV worlds - The world of TV has now improved. Networks now run in seasons, with a changing schedule to match. They also now have non-wrestling shows, and these are also rated, meaning that Monday night's football game could steal ratings from your own wrestling show.International release dates:Europe: Q3 2005
