Stephen Kelley from gamrReview says"...fun wrestling games were a thing of the past until today. WWE All Stars is just what the doctor ordered for lapsed fans of the genre. Gone are the complex controls, boring management simulations, and long story modes, all replaced with a bit of stylish butt-kicking."
What classic WWF/WWE wrestling games are worth playing now? Quite a few, actually.
WCW/NWO World Tour and Wrestlemania 2000 were peak wrestling games. Back when wrestling was at the top of pop culture, everyone in school would watch. The gameplay is phenomenal and create your own characters opened up the door to WCW vs WWF. What a time!
The best wrestling games range from all-time classics on the N64 all the way up to some surprising new hitters you should check out.
I was always partial to the arcade wrestling games like Saturday night slam masters, wwf superstars, wrestlefest, wrestlemania, wrestle war and then a NES classic... pro wrestling. By the time the N64 era of wrestling games happened, I wasnt into wrestling much anymore (tv & games).
Virtual Pro Wrestling 1 & 2 > Most games on that list.
Also, WCW/NWO Revenge should be #2 minimum.
WWE 2k13 thanks to the WWE Attitude Mode. Followed by WWE Attitude and ECW Hardcore Evolution.
also: ECW! ECW! ECW!
There's been so many great wrestling games throughout the years. But this list of the 10 best wrestling games of all time will crown one true champion.
Better score than I was expecting!
yeah it actually surprised me a lot! seems the same way with a lot of folks, it's been getting 80's and 90's all around.
Looks like WWE trying to make a return to gaming relevancy.
Pretty good score.
