    I've played this game on the Amiga. It was really lame.

    A Black Falcon: no, computer games and video games are NOT the same thing. Video games are on consoles, computer games are on PC. The two kinds of games are different, and have significantly different design styles, distribution methods, and game genre selections. Computer gaming and console (video) gaming are NOT the same thing."

    This strikes me as one of those games that would have been impressive for about five minutes. Once the novelty of the digitised graphics wore off, the appeal probably wouldn't have lasted. That said, I'm somewhat surprised no-one tried to remake it during the FMV game era.

    I don’t get why the Amiga version couldn’t store all of the images in memory. It was a pain having to wait a minute or two for the next image to load on screen.

    The version with Monsoon and Heenan automatically wins. Also, the match with McMahon and Sammartino is eerily life-like. Vince, with 1 line, has all of the dialogue, and Bruno's as quiet as a mouse .

    I am VERY surprised a game like this wasn't resurrected amongst the Mega CD's neverending stream of FMV games. With a bigger roster, cleaner FMV and faster reaction times in the gameplay it might have been a pretty good game for WWF fans.

    It was just static images. They would of had to film live action.

    Yeah I know, but you get my point. I think this could have potentially been one of the more successful examples of FMV games.

    Yeah, it would have been a much cooler game.
