Get in the ring with 16 of the WWE's top Superstars from both
RAW and SmackDown! including, John Cena, Randy Orton, Eddie Guerrero and Rey Mysterio. An original story mode allows players to fight their way up the ranks and challenge to become the WWE champion. And when you've finished beating the computer opponents, why not challenge friends in 8 match types including Cage, Tag Team and Fatal 4 Way using the GBA Link cable...

WWE Survivor Series is a bold move - or a very stupid one depending on your viewpoint. The simple fact is that the Gameboy Advance doesn't really lend itself to games of this complexity. This really is a game that should only be played on PC, PS2 or Xbox.

However, THQ have managed to achieve impressive results... just not impressive enough. The graphics look incredible for a GBA game, but sadly the gameplay is lacking any real excitement. The range of attacks and moves is limited which make for a pretty average gaming experience. It's not that bad, but then it's not that great either.

There's no create a wrestler feature, not surprisingly, and the fact there is a very limited number of wrestlers to choose from means that some WWE fans may feel cheated that their favourite character isn't available.

If you're looking for a handheld wrestling game, then this is the one for you, mainly as there is no other real contender on the market. Personally, I'd stick to playing at home with one of the big boys.
