"Looks good on the shelve then in does in your Game Boy!"

Graphics: 5
The wrestlers look nothing like their real life counterparts, and they don't move like them either. The finishers are a mixed bag when it comes to autenticity. Some finishers like the Stunner, and X-Factor, look very real! But other looks like crap, such as the Rock Bottom, and the Tombstone. There is also alot of sprite flickering in the game.

Control: 5
Moves are the same for each character making it easy to master everycharacter right off the bat(Which isn't a plus). There are very few moves, and the finishers can be done almost immediately. Thats if you do ever grapple the computer. It almost always grapples you before you grapple it. Overall the controls a very frustrating.

Sound: 2
What sound is there?? There is some really chessy, blues type music that plays through out the whole game, and sound FX are almost non-existant. There are two, landing on the mat, and getting punched.

Gamplay: 2
It can be summed up in two words: boring, and frustrating. The lack of save feature, and having to right down passwords, kills it replay value.

Overall: 4
Horrible, don't get unless your a wrestling videogame nerd. Just hope an pray that THQ has a better go 'round than Acclaim did.
