Wrestling MPire

[Troll]

IDK how many of you guys have heard about this game but it is really sweet. I downloaded the demo today and it plays a like a poor mans no mercy, but just look at all of those features, and for the price tag of just 14.99 i couldn't pass placing an order for it. A real roster patch is on the way and should include 9 different real federations from WWE, UFC, New Japan and more. Here's the link, just thought some wrestling fans may want to check this out....one warning, I tried it with a keyboard and found it to be too difficult to play, but with a controller it rivals smackdown for enjoyment, to me atleast.

Looks cool.

Has this been reviewed on that PWSE.net site? (Haven't had much chance to look; firewall at work blocks me out of a ton of places!)

[Troll]

no, i'm not so sure that they will either since it isnt a text sim, don't quote me on that tho

[Suicane75]

Just playing the demo I see 3 things.
1. If it does all it says it does concerning the simulation side of things then i will be buying this.
2. Theres no way to tell in the demo.
3. The actual in ring stuff is incredibly limited as far as I can tell.

[Troll]

I recommend increasing the game speed. The weapons keep the in ring stuff interesting. I can tell you if the simulation side does what it says when I get the game. It seems each time your play u find more moves and more things you can do tho.

[Ragone]

Man if that does half of what he wants it to do.. will be a great game..

its already a good game just from messing around with it

[korme]

I will buy a downloadable version. Looks pretty fun.

[Troll]

the downloadable version isnt patchable, thats the drawback to the downloadable version

[MikeVic]

ahaha. This game looks funny. Can you do any weak, strong grapples? Or is it just the normal grapples?

[korme]

Why would a downloadable game not be patchable??

[Troll]

its just the normal grapple. You can hit the run/attack/pick-up buttons to do different moves. Combine those with each other and different directions to do even more moves for some wrestlers.

For shorty's question-

Click to order the official boxed CD version of the game. It comes in a fully decorated jewel case, complete with a pull-out instructions summary and exclusive bonus material - including source code extracts and a toolkit for costume editing. The game ships from California USA, so please anticipate shipping costs and delays for international orders. For security reasons, this is the only option that can benefit from downloadable updates...

---For some security reasons, IDK what they would be tho

echoice wrestling!! Support your local folk.

[korme]

the horrible, horrible load times of matches kill off any interest, too bad

[korme]

Sig that, Senator.

[Blade6119]

the load times are horrid...the matches get routine after like 10-20...and despite it having cool features is pretty hard to move up...though i found it distrubng how much fun it was when i injured a guy in an iron man match(must go 15 min.), then proceeded to kick his crippled ass for the last 10 min...i figured it wouldnt make a difference, but he ended up going out for 37 weeks and lost almost all his ratings and i cant help but think its because of what i did :)
