WCW SuperBrawl Wrestling isn’t a good game. It looks good, but the gameplay leaves a lot to be desired. It isn’t terrible, but there isn’t much reason to return to this game. Every wrestler feels the same, and they all look similar. They have the same move set, the same animations, and the same bodyContinue reading “Good Graphics, Bad Gameplay, WCW SuperBrawl on the SNES”

Good Gameplay and Terrible Visuals, HammerLock Wrestling on the SNES
HammerLock Wrestling is much better than I was expecting. I can see why the game might not be considered the best, but it has a lot going for it when compared to the other wrestling games on the SNES. It was surprisingly fun to play! The biggest problem I have is with the visual presentationContinue reading “Good Gameplay and Terrible Visuals, HammerLock Wrestling on the SNES”
Best Beat’em Ups on the NES
The NES isn’t known for its beat’em ups. This genre is better known on the Genesis/Mega Drive, SNES, and arcades. However, several ports of 80s arcade games found their way to the NES. There were also a handful of beat’em ups made for the NES. The 80s was a strange time for every genre ofContinue reading “Best Beat’em Ups on the NES”

Kung-Fu Heroes is a Simple but Fun Arcade Game
Kung-Fu Heroes is an adorable game! The character sprites are big and goofy looking. It is a unique style and looks great for an early NES game. This is a port of an Arcade game called Chinese Heroes, the first game in the Super Chinese series. It is a single-screen beat’em up game. You fightContinue reading “Kung-Fu Heroes is a Simple but Fun Arcade Game”
Rush’n Attack on the NES is a Decent Arcade Port
Rush’N Attack is a port of an arcade game called Green Beret. Why did they change the name? No idea, but I think it doesn’t matter all that much. The name is kind of fun and is a play on Russian Attack. I assume that is what Konami or their American office was going for.Continue reading “Rush’n Attack on the NES is a Decent Arcade Port”

The Best WWF Game, Not the Best Wrestling Game
The last of the WWF games on the NES is the best one. It is a little better than WCW Wrestling because I had more fun with it. I only had minor issues with the game regarding gameplay and graphics. There are several game modes, and you have a custom character similar to WrestleMania Challenge.Continue reading “The Best WWF Game, Not the Best Wrestling Game”
WrestleMania Challenge is Ultimately a Disappointing Game
This was a promising game, but it didn’t deliver on the gameplay. WWF WrestleMania Challenge is more like a survivor series game. That is the big draw here as far as stipulation matches go. Instead of the cage match, this game has a six-man elimination match. Aside from the six-man tag match, you have aContinue reading “WrestleMania Challenge is Ultimately a Disappointing Game”
