Legends of Wrestling II was released in 2002. The first game in the series was decent, but it had quite a few problems. I played the GameCube versions of the first two games, and the PS2 version of the first. I’ll be looking at the PS2 version of this game. This game looks a littleContinue reading “Legends of Wrestling II: Better than the First, still not Great”

Ultimate Muscle on the GameCube is a Fun Game
I chose Ultimate Muscle: The Kinnikuman Legacy Legends vs New Generation for the first GameCube wrestling game I’m planning on reviewing. That is a ridiculously long title, so I’ll just call it Ultimate Muscle from now on. This is the second Muscle game I’ve played so far. The other one was the NES game, andContinue reading “Ultimate Muscle on the GameCube is a Fun 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”
WCW Backstage Assault on the N64 is Pretty Bad
I just want to get this one over with. WCW Backstage Assault is the final WCW video game. The developer made the bizarre decision to have a wrestling game without a wrestling ring. This feels like Vince Russo was part of the creative meetings behind the game. Every match is a hardcore match that takesContinue reading “WCW Backstage Assault on the N64 is Pretty Bad”
WCW vs. The World is A Great Game with Dated Graphics
I’ve been looking forward to playing the WCW games on the PS1 and the N64. I have memories of Mayhem because it was a Christmas present. I didn’t play the other WCW games and missed out on the N64 games. I didn’t watch WCW until 1999. I know I missed out on the company’s goodContinue reading “WCW vs. The World is A Great Game with Dated Graphics”
Power Move Pro Wrestling a Spectacular Hidden Gem on the PS1/PSX
There is something to be said about discovering a game you missed. It can either turn out great, or you can see why this game passed you by. Power Move Pro Wrestling is one of the games that I wish I had played back in 1995 or 1996. It is one of the best wrestlingContinue reading “Power Move Pro Wrestling a Spectacular Hidden Gem on the PS1/PSX”
The Sega Version of WrestleMania: The Arcade Game Looks Great
This is the second version of WWF WrestleMania: The Arcade Game I’ve played. It has several advantages over the SNES version, but I have the same problems with it as I did with that game. Playing arcade games now can be a little rough, especially when there wasn’t anything added to the console port. IfContinue reading “The Sega Version of WrestleMania: The Arcade Game Looks Great”
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”
