Acclaim is one of those companies that has an odd history. Many of its terrible games were hidden under the LJN and Flying Edge labels, and it had a long relationship with Midway and WWF/WWE. They did publish some great games, especially the ports of Midway’s arcade games. This is one of the companies thatContinue reading “Acclaim: An Odd Publishing Company”

This is based on the games I’ve played, so there is a chance that IContinue reading “WWF Wrestling Games I’ve Played Ranked From Worst to Best”
WWF King of the Ring on Game Boy
WWF King of the Ring was ported to the Game Boy, and it is a very rough game. I’m one of the few people who likes the NES game, and the Game Boy port is not as good. The controls aren’t as good, and the graphics are hit-and-miss. This version of the game has fewerContinue reading “WWF King of the Ring on Game Boy”
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”
WWF Attitude on the N64 Looks Good but is Annoying
WWF Attitude is one of the more memorable wrestling games from the 1990s for me. My friends and I rented it a few times and spent a lot of time with it. I think it is an average game now, but at the time, it was awesome. I like going back and seeing if theseContinue reading “WWF Attitude on the N64 Looks Good but is Annoying”
WWF Warzone on the N64 is a Great Arcade Wrestling game
It feels like I’m the only person who likes or has fond memories of WWF Warzone. All of my memories are of the PS1 version, so I’m looking forward to playing the N64 version for the first time. I know what I’m getting into with this one. This game is a bridge between arcade wrestlingContinue reading “WWF Warzone on the N64 is a Great Arcade Wrestling game”
Ranking the PS1 Pro Wrestling Games Worst to Best
Playing through the PS1 Wrestling games has been an experience. I played some of the worst games I’ve ever played and some spectacular games I’ve never tried. There were also some amazing games and a few that I liked more than others. I’ve watched as the WCW games took a serious nosedive in quality, andContinue reading “Ranking the PS1 Pro Wrestling Games Worst to Best”
Smackdown! 2 is the Best PS1 Wrestling Game
Smackdown! 2: Know Your Role is the best wrestling game on the PS1. It is also one of the best games on the PS1; it is really that good. I loved playing this game as a kid, and it is fantastic to play it now. I have a story about this game. It involves meContinue reading “Smackdown! 2 is the Best PS1 Wrestling Game”
WWF Attitude has Wonky Controls and Good Graphics
This is one of the games that I remember renting. My friend Drew and I spent several weekends playing this game. Then Smackdown came out, and we completely forgot about it. It felt like there was a new wrestling game every couple of months back in the late 90s. They all blend together. This oneContinue reading “WWF Attitude has Wonky Controls and Good Graphics”
WWF WrestleMania on the PS1 is Disappointingly Average
This is fine. It isn’t all that special, and it isn’t something I would want to revisit. It is a good-looking port of the arcade game, but there are better wrestling games on the Play Station 1. This version of WWF WrestleMania: The Arcade Game is closer to the Sega Genesis version. It has theContinue reading “WWF WrestleMania on the PS1 is Disappointingly Average”
