- WWF wrestlemania -
|
|
Wrestling is often met with
a lot of skepticism because the matches are said to be fixed not to mention
the weird storylines and bizarre characters. What you can't make fun of
are the athletic abilities that the wrestlers need to perform some of their
amazing feats. The World Wrestling Federation, now called World Wrestling
Entertainment, was and is the biggest broadcaster of the sport. WWE wrestlemania
is the biggest annual show and this game is derived from that, it let's
you select one of three contestants and you must battle through all the
others including the current champ Segeant Slaughter to be crowned champion.
You can play a practice game or go for the championship belt, both will
lead you to the character select screen which allows you to choose from
Hulk Hogan, the British bulldog or the ultimate warrior. All three of them
were pretty much faces, or good guys, when this game was released. Each
character including the opponents has their own signature move. You face
off against your opponents in a predetermined order and include the likes
of Mr. Perfect, the warlord and the million dollar man Ted Dibiase. You
can fight using regular punches or kicks but the big moves come after you
win a grapple, you can then execute a special move which will take off a
large chunck of energy. You can even do some crazy things like jumping of
the ropes into your opponent or going outside the ring and grabbing a chair
to beat him up but don't stay out too long or you'll get counted out. Once
either contestants energy drops to zero they can get pinned for a threecount
to win the match.
WWF wrestlemania is a bit of a mixed bag for me, it's not that bad and it
has some very recognizeable characters in it and some cool stuff like the
use of chairs. The trashtalking before a match is pretty unique so it's
a shame they don't really influence the match. Too bad there's not enough
variation, the moves are rather bland and there isn't a lot of difference
between wrestlers. This game is mostly for wrestling fans and even then
there are some better games around than this.
Overal rating: 6.5/10
