WWF Superstars was released by LJN in 1991. It is a Game Boy exclusive and one of the few wrestling games available on the handheld. I had never played this game before, and it is what I was expecting from a handheld wrestling game from 1991. TLDR: This is a decent handheld wrestling game. NarrativeContinue reading “WWF Superstars is an Average Game Boy Game”

WCW Main Event on the Game Boy is Fun
There are a few wrestling games on the Game Boy. Some are exclusive to the handheld, and others are inferior ports of console games. WCW Main Event is one of the exclusives. I’ve never played this game before, so I don’t have any idea what I’m getting into here. My first impressions of the gameContinue reading “WCW Main Event on the Game Boy is Fun”
Gekido: Urban Combat, a Good Beat’em Up on the PS1
Gekido: Urban Fighters is a beat’em up for the PS1. It was released in North America in June 2000. This is one of the games that was first released in Europe and later brought to North America. I really want to like this game, but something is holding it back. The gameplay and controls areContinue reading “Gekido: Urban Combat, a Good Beat’em Up on the PS1”
Fighting Force is a Good Beat’em Up on the PS1
Fighting Force is a 3D beat’em up from the team that created Tomb Raider. I previously played the N64 version, which I thought was good but not anything special. It was a fun game, and it made me want to play the PS1 version and the sequels on the PS1 and Dreamcast. I remember likingContinue reading “Fighting Force is a Good Beat’em Up on the PS1”
Brigandine is a Wonderful Strategy Game on the PS1
Brigandine: The Legend of Forsena is a strategy RPG for the PS1. There is a sequel to this game which changes the subtitle. Initially I thought it was a remaster or remake, but it is a direct sequel.

One of the Worst Beat’em Ups I’ve Played. Soul Fighter
This game was a little hard to play. I liked parts of Soul Fighter, but the game needed a better camera. Being a single-player-only game was one of the developers’ dumber decisions. Beat’em ups are better when you can sit with a friend or play online with a stranger. For a game released in 1999,Continue reading “One of the Worst Beat’em Ups I’ve Played. Soul Fighter”
Sega Dreamcast Wrestling Games Ranked from Worst to Best
Thankfully, there weren’t any bad wrestling games on the Sega Dreamcast. North America got screwed over with this genre of games as the best wrestling games didn’t make it out of Japan. I’m unsure if they were released in Europe, so let me know if they were. I went back and took a second lookContinue reading “Sega Dreamcast Wrestling Games Ranked from Worst to Best”
ECW Anarchy Rulz on the Dreamcast is Good but Disappointing
ECW Anarchy Rulz is a good game, but it still feels like you’re playing WWF Attitude. Some changes were made to separate this game from the others, but the controls still feel like WWF Warzone, WWF Attitude, and ECW Hardcore Revolution. It looks better than the other Acclaim games but plays the same. The developerContinue reading “ECW Anarchy Rulz on the Dreamcast is Good but Disappointing”
WWF Attitude on the Sega Dreamcast is Pretty Good
Let’s take a look at the Dreamcast version of WWF Attitude. Thankfully, I’m very familiar with the game now, so this won’t be too difficult. This is a game I liked when it was released, but I soured on it over the years, This is the first time I’ve played the Dreamcast version of theContinue reading “WWF Attitude on the Sega Dreamcast is Pretty Good”
ECW Hardcore Revolution on the Dreamcast is Awesome
This is the third version of ECW Hardcore Revolution that I’ve played. I don’t have any problems with it, aside from the things I’ve pointed out in the PS1 and N64 versions of the game. This one felt a little easier than those two, and I think the controls are a little better. This isContinue reading “ECW Hardcore Revolution on the Dreamcast is Awesome”
