WWF EncycRAWpedia Volume 1

Summary: Could Have Been A Lot Better
Review: When I purchased this CD, I thought I'd be getting a great lookback at some of the WWF's greatest Raw moments. It features SteveAustin, The Rock, Undertaker, Mankind, DX, The Austin/McMahon fued, and the Corporate Ministry. While it provides a decent amount of video and sound clips, the rest of the CD seriously lacks. For example, there is a "Superstar Photo Gallery" that doesn't contain more than one image of each wrestler. If that isn't bad enough, there are only 15 personalities available! I know the WWF has more superstars than that. The "Superstar Bios" section is even worse, containing only 9 bios. The company who made this disc could have just pulled all the bios off the WWF web site and used those. Why they only chose a few is beyond me. Also included are three, yes, three "screen savers". Steve Austin, Debra, and "WWF Superstars". The Steve Austin screen saver only has 4 images of him! The Debra one has a few more, and the "WWF Superstars" saver only shows about 8 images of WWF wrestlers. Again, there are far more wrestlers in the WWF than that. I've seen better savers on the internet for free... I think the design and interface of the CD is very weak. It's just bad in some spots and confusing in others. In closing, an alright disc for the clips if you don't already have them on tape, but not much more than that. The WWF has a good track record for quality products, but I was shocked that they actually let Multimedia 2000, inc release this thing. It's VERY overpriced at $29.99. I wouldn't pay more than $9.99 for it after seeing how bare and amature looking it is. Maybe Volume 2 will be better.
