I don't know what ECW(sp?) is, but it sounds good. What sells in the game industry is the violence. I used to watch Ultimate Fighting Championships(UFC) which were on pay-per-view. In contrast to wrestling, it is REAL fighting and anything goes except eye-gouging. It is very fun to watch. If THQ could make a game about UFC, that would be a hot-seller. The only drawback is that not too many people have heard of it. But that shouldn't matter very much. Games like Mortal Combat aren't based on real-life characters and it used to sell very well.

Would it be difficult to find out how much the WCW license was bought for?
