I don't think I'll ever enjoy a wrestling game as much as No Mercy for the n64...
 

Unless the AKI/THQ engine is showcased again.

:'(

WCW/NWO Revenge, WM2000, No Mercy > all wrestling games since

Fire Pro Wrestling series > Aki/THQ series > KOC series > Smackdown Series

Frankly, DoR's engine was half No Mercy half other shit.

KOC 2 still has the best reversals.

Just sayin.

Saturday Night Slam Masters.

That it does, but the KOC series, while awesome, still has some glaring flaws in the gameplay. Also, lack of match types hurts it as well.

Yeah, this shit doesn't get enough credit. While I was in Ednmonton, we busted out the old SNES and a had a multiplayer tag battle royal marathon like it was 1994 all over again.

Too bad the sequel was kinda gayed up. I really hope they come out with a 3d version of this someday. Or even a 2D DS sequel (SNSM 3!!!!). That would be tits.

I gotta agree with that. It seems the best were on N64.

DoR was flipping awesome because of the elements it incorporated from No Mercy.

Shame only 4 people could be on the screen at a time.

Ok somebody please do me a favour and provide me with an idiot's guide to getting a FirePro game. Preferably one with the match ratings in. Am I being dumb or are there no english language versions of FirePro at all?

Besides the GBA games, you'd need to download mods and burn them to work in English on a current/last gen console.

I don't think I'll ever enjoy an Assman post.

You're not alone.

AssMang refers to some of the background music in No Mercy.

WWF Warzone :shifty:

"PLAYER 1! PLAYER 1!"

Im actually enjoying smackdown v raw for the 360, could never stand it before as everything felt far too fast and arcadey, this version imo feels more "real" i suppose.


Actually laoded up wmx8 and wmxix for the cube on my wii the other day, jesus christ...x8 with its 4 front moves and xix with a no mercy (ish) style grapple system but extremely half assed animation all over the show. Then you had the utterly retarded revenge mode, also known as the "we couldn't be fucked making a proper season mode this year" mode. :nono:

Warzone 4 lyf

Warzone was the shit, now if they only didn't make Attitude :n:

"I'm gonna get medieval on your buttox!"

Revenge mode was crazy underrated. Especially when playing multiplayer.

It was something different. I rather preferred it over the redundant story modes that come with most games.

WCW vs nWo

"SmackDown mall.....HUH! HUH!"

Wrestlemania the Arcade game was different, too. Doesn't make it good.

Never played no mercy, my sister did (Yeah wtf) my overall faveourite wrestling game has gotta be Here comes the pain.

Nitro?

It really is a shame Def Jam went away from the Aki engine. It's not the same as a real wrestling game, but who cares?

I loved this game/ :love:

Have you seen the previews for the new Def Jam game? It abandons it completely, since EA are doing it in house. Looks like shit, naturally enough.

Oh I know. He's still worthless.

Three Words:

Day of Reckoning.

That series definitely carried the torch. After playing them, I think they're even better than SmackDown (with the out-of-WWE moves, Scott Steiner's REAL finisher, the REAL F-U, and so on)

I liked how everyone had alternate outfits In the older games. Even WMXIX had them.

Don't you love it how, now, they're too lazy to make more alternate costumes, and yet most of the parts for some of the outfits are in CAW.

Or better yet, when some people in story mode clearly have second outfits but don't use them in the ring.
