while no mercy has the edge in outside the ring action for sure Virtual Pro Wrestling 2(basically Wrestlemania 2000 from makers of no mercy with a oficial AJPW roster + NJPW and indy feds roster) gives it a serious run for it's money.Originally Posted by Astonishing X-Fan
as said before no mercy has the edge outside the ring and in match types VPW 2 is a serious challenger with it's MMA and shoot style modes, they take a minute to adjust to but when you get the hang of it they can be a lot of fun http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_ZxqfO2Nqk

Mr. Backlund continued wrestling under the new gimmick of an out of touch, yet highly dangerous, maniac out to teach the new generation a lesson.[3] He often appeared in business suits, had a hyperactive personality, and used (or, often, misused) large words to sound important. He also demanded that he be addressed as "Mr. Backlund". He would only sign autographs for wrestling fans if they could recite the names of all of the US Presidents in chronological order

The only wrestling game I still play is Fire Pro Returns.

Back in the 90s , the only wrestling game i played was WWF wrestlemania - the arcade game. It was a blast , the digitized graphics , the vince mcmahon & jerry lawler commentary.
Think the last wrestling game i played was like quite a few years back , maybe raw vs smackdown 2006 or 2007 for ps2.

Yeah, that was pretty fun. It was sort of a Mortal Kombat-ish fighting game. Originally Posted by marshal99

Loved WWF No Mercy, Wrestlemania 2000, WCW/NWO Revenge and WCW vs. NWO World Tour. It was the best rosters, moves and some CAWs features.
It's a shame AKI doesn't make wrestling games anymore.

The real WWE Arcade game. I loved their Royal Rumble mode, more fun than Smackdown vs Raw's Rumble mode. Originally Posted by Alex

They are another small japanese developer that couldn't make the transition too HD. Which is why you haven't seen any game from them. Originally Posted by KingEli

def jam vendetta by AKI is a great wrestling game that for the most part goes unrecognized as such. i just wish they could've done a WWE game on a PS2/xbox or PS3/xbox360 Originally Posted by KingEli

if def jam had real wrestlers & fight for NY's CAW system it would've been an all time great wrestling game. Originally Posted by Kid Kamikaze10

I just saw gameplay clips of the new RTWM and a trailer for it.
This game is now rentable. Possibly buy list if WWE Universe 2.0 doesn't disappoint.
