Lets discuss wrestling games

[MIZPHIT]

I like these:

Def Jam Vendetta
Ultimate Muscle GC
WWE Day Of Reckoning 2 GC
WWF No Mercy
Smackdown 2 PS1
WCW Championship Wrestling NES
Tecmo World Wrestling NES

I bought Fire Pro Wrestling Returns on PS2, but haven't really had time to play it.

I remember downloading long, extremely detailed faqs on just about every game I played from compuserve, and I had one dedicated to this game. I actually still have all those faqs, in several huge binders, which I refer to if I need help in an old game.

That faq let me really get into the game and I learned it's combo system and how to properly play it. And it wound up being a blast, definitely an underappreciated game.

Ha I used to have compuserve bitd and I remember doing the same thing with the FAQs. The good old days of dial up. That SMS game looks pretty cool.

As far as wrestling games go I like Giant Gram 2000 all Japan Pro Wrestling 3 on Dreamcast (jap). It is an awesome wrestling game. I played the hell out of smackdown vs Raw 2011. I don't care about any of the modern wrestlers, but the create a character is godly. You can make some real freaks. The create a story mode took me a long time to figure out, but it is a lot of fun to use your imagination and create hilarious stories. Most of my stories were pretty lewd n crude and involved pimping the Divas, hitting people with cars, and other sorts of jackassery.

Got to mention WCW VS NWO Revenge for n64, many hours went to that game.

I'm another one who never got into proper wrestling games and settled for the rather bonkers WWF Wrestlemania: The Arcade Game

not sure im 100 percent correct on this but arent the finishers almost impossible to hit because of such long combos

WWF Wrestlemania The Arcage Game The game is pure awesomeness!

Fire Pro Wrestling Returns is the best wrestling game ever made. Nothing else comes close. It makes the Smackdown games look like a joke. It makes No Mercy look like amateur hour. Fire Pro D comes in at a close second.

Pro Wrestling for the NES is the most time I've ever spent on a wrestling game. It was also the most fun I've had with one. It seems like a lifetime ago that I've given a wrestling game a fair shake, although Fire Pro Wrestling Returns is seriously grabbing my interest.

Wrestling games are tosh. That's my contribution complete

Finishers were only allowed if your guy was in "special "

WrestleMania Arcade is the best. Sure, it may not be a proper wrestling game, but it's still loads of fun. There's also it's spiritual successor, WWE All Stars, which is quite good, but it doesn't match the level of awesomeness WrestleMania Arcade had.

As for proper wrestling games, SmackDown! 2 for the PS1 was a favorite of mine (and of my brother too, and he doesn't like wrestling games that much). No Mercy and Here Comes The Pain are kinda overrated IMO.

Also, while on the topic of Def Jam Vendetta, Def Jam: Fight for New York was also one hell of a game.

I have WWE 12, and I am really loving the create an arena.
I made rings based off the wwf games on the genesis

[M4R14NO94]

^That is extremely awesome.

I want to know one thing, though: does the Create an Arena mode come with all of the logos, or do you have to either draw or import them from another source?
