Who made the original Smackdown! games? They were the best. Gone a bit downhill from there, but I will check this out on rental. Looks beautiful.

Yeah 1 and 2.

Used to love stacking a table on the announcement table, then a table on that, then finally a ladder on top, and senton (never had swanton in the earlier games) off the top onto my opponent, throught the other announcement table.

The Spanish announcement table I take it? All those years I was glued to Wrasslin and it was always the Spanish who got it tight at ringside.

WWF Smackdown 2: Know Your Role owned.

Continuous four player season. 60+ wrestlers. Hardcore time limit. So many backstage areas. I loved this game.

Only WWF No Mercy topped it for me.

WrestleMania 2000? Yeah, that was awesome. And WCW vs NWO Revenge before that game. They should of used the same engine as these games. Just polish up the graphics and add new wrestlers and match types and you've got a wrestling game made of win.

That's true. I had forgotten about the speed of the game.

I just like how the matches felt like a tactical battle, because of the momentum bars. If your colour is light green and your opponent was dark orange, then you could not pull off strong grapples, because it was easy for them to reverse and so on.

All Smackdown games have been made by Yukes, and are fucking shit.

The N64 games made by AKI were amazing. Fuck were they too slow. The only way they could be improved upon was more match modes (HIAC), more people on screen, and generally more moves, characters, and shit. I had them all:

WCW vs. NWO World Tour
Virtual Pro Wrestling 64
WCW vs. NWO Revenge
WWF WrestleMania 2000
Virtual Pro Wrestling 2
WWF No Mercy

After World Tour I got each one on US import the moment they came out, and the Japanese ones obviously also. Each one improved on the last, but they remained unique. Even after No Mercy I could go back and play Revenge because nothing beat taking control of managers and knocking out Dusty Rhodes with Rick Rude's trusty left jab. You can't buy that shit. And then in Virtual Pro 2 you had some awesome characters like Vader and the ring ramp, which added a totally new dimension to the game. And frankly, they were funny as hell, which is what wrestling games should be about. They don't have the presentation of Smackdown games, but it had it where it counted - gameplay. Just perfect given the limitations of the console. They deserve a next-gen reincarnation. Imagine it - more modes, 8 men on screen, etc. I would actually wank myself to death. I hate THQ for just letting Yukes make everything.
