If you're still slamming fools to the mat in WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2009, it might seem a bit premature to start talking about another wrestling game, but I'm sure THQ won't mind. Today, the company has shared with IGN the official box art for WWE Legends of WrestleMania, which confirms that Jimmy Hart, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and the Rock will join Bobby "The Brain" Heenan, Andre the Giant, and Hulk Hogan when the game ships this spring
This weekend is WrestleMania XXX,and with the celebration underway Nerds on the Rocks decides to checkout the Top 7 wrestling game bearing the event's name. From the NES to the PlayStation 2, the brand has extended through generations of gaming consoles.
THQ Tank has confirmed on his twitter account that THQ has no plans right now to release a sequel to Legends of WrestleMania.
The biggest event in the professional wrestling calendar is almost upon us, so with Wrestlemania XVII so close, what better time to look back at five of the best recreations of sports entertainment gaming has to offer?
Surprised to see that none of the N64 gems made that list. NWO vs WCW Revenge was a beast.
Pro Wrestling (NES) Wrestlemania Challenge (NES) NWO vs WCW (N64) Wrestlemania 2000 (N64) Royal Rumble (Sega Genesis) Raw (Sega Genesis)
The bestest. The end.
Best actual wrestling NWA in the 80s.
looks bad why do they have to make a good game then a crap one?
There hasn't been a good wrestling game in.... hell, I dunno... ever. Why start now. What's sad, they'll probably find any way in the world to toss in John Cena and the rock as legends just so they can inflate their roster.
when I think wrestling legends I don't think Austin, The Rock, Cena or Helmsley. I think Hulk Hogan, Andre The Giant, Big john Stud, Million Dollar Man, Macho Man, junk Yard Dog, Piper, Jake The Snake, George The Animal Steel, Ricky Steam Boat and guys like that... real talent. Not just physical talent either. Talent that could draw you in by their charisma and actions.
ummmm.... Shawn Michaels and Taker where art thou....This is about Wrestlemania after all.
The Rock is great. If I was a wrestler, I'd be the Rock.
Well Steve Austin was popular but I remember when he was a hollywood blond, if not for jake the snake the Stone Cold attitude wouldn't have exsisted.
I don't imagine that the Ultimate Warrior will be on the game but if its legends of wrestlemania their should be many of the old greats and The Rock should be in the game but Cena shouldn't. Many of the ones Silogan posted should be in the game.
L.O.D., Demolition, Steamboat, Hercules Hernandez, The British Bulldog's (both of them), Heart Foundation, One Man Gang, Brutus Beefcake, Tito Santana, Volkoff, U.S. Express, Orndorff, Greg Valentine, Don Muarco, George Steele, Harley Race, Dino Bravo, Big Boss Man, Mr. Perfect, Rick Rude, Nasty Boys, Razor Ramon, Tatanka, Lex Luger, Arn Anderson (Even if he was only in one), Sid Eudy, etc.
