"This is actually a pretty fun game"

WWF Super Wrestlemania. What can I say? If you are a fan of the glory days of professional wrestling, when Hulkamania was running wild, then you should buy this game. However, if you don't have the slightest clue about wrestling from the early 90's, don't buy this game.

Graphics
The graphics in this game are pretty grainy and choppy. You can barely make out the faces. However, you can still distinguish the wrestlers pretty easily. The moves look pretty good. It is pretty slow-paced since there is a lot of slow down, so that makes the game look kind of unrealistic. The character select menu looks good, although who really cares about the character select menu? Graphics: 5/10

Sound
The sounds of the wrestling moves connecting are pretty realistic. The same goes for when the wrestler hits the outside floor. The wrestler's theme music is in the game, too. It's not great, but that's because of the Super Nintendo's limited capabillities compared to the PSX or N64. But the theme music is pretty good for the SNES. Here's a neat tip: highlight a wrestler on the wrestler select screen and wait a few seconds. His theme music will begin to play! Sound: 6/10

Controls
The moves are easy to learn and simple to pull off. However, to pull off a move, you have to keep on tapping a button. Some people might find that irritating and annoying, but it really isn't that big of a deal. Controls: 7/10

Replay Value
This game is pretty fun, all things considered. The Survivor Series mode is pretty fun, and that is what keeps me playing. The two-player mode will keep you playing.Replay Value: 8/10

Overall
Overall, this game is pretty decent. Don't buy this game if you didn't watch wrestling back in the early 90's, or else you'll be lost. Don't expect the Rock or Stone Cold to be in this. If you are a fan of the 90's wrestling, buy this game. It's pretty solid.Overall: 6/10
