they kinda hated on anarchy rulz imo.
-
WCW/NWO Thunder sucked and should be last.
Backstage Assault shouldn't be ranked, how does a wrestling game not even have a wrestling ring?
Anarchy Rulz should be higher.
But yeah Smackdown 1 & 2 were the best by far.
PS Wrestling games were pretty horrible looking back. -

dropping this again for purposes on this thread....
Lol that wcw/nwo thunder game was terrible lol.... I remember being hyped about renting it from the video store in like '97 or '98..... Put that ? in the PS1 and it was one of the most disappointing moments of my life... SMH....... -
Smh at them not naming Fire pro wrestling G
-
Wrestlemania 2000
Wcw nwo revenge
Here comes the pain>>>>>>>> -
The list was PS1 games only (US releases). I would have swapped Power Move Wrestling and WCW Mayhem and moved Backstage Assault to the end. Other than that the list is pretty legit.
-
no mercy for n64>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
-
Damn PS1 had some trash wrestling games. Smackdown 2 was ? terrible . The acclaim joints were the best wrestling games on the ps overall. Smackdown was meh the move sets were so limited. N64 wrestling games ? all over playstation's.
-
Why did they only do PS1 titles? They should've done it overall.
-
yea, n64 games were better, but back in the day i couldnt help but think them games were tight lol, wcw vs the world was underrated, glad they ranked it high
-
Might as well rank the N64 games
Top 5
1. WWF No Mercy
2. Virtual Pro Wrestling 2
3. WWF WrestleMania 2000
4. WCW/NWO Revenge
5. WCW/NWO World Tour -
Backstage Assault remains a guilty pleasure of mine. If only because it was the first game to feature Stacy Kiebler

Naw Son it was wack as ? I guess ? don't remember the sim screen during career mode that ? was the
worst . ? was such a step backward from what I was used to playing on N64 with the AKI/THQ games . -
The load screens and meter fights on the Smackdown 2 season mode were annoying as hell but the rest of the game was great.
-
only way smackdown 2 could possibly be wack is if u dont have patience or u were already diehard team n64, for ps1 wrestling games, what is possibly better?
-
acclaim wwf games were cool/aight back then but wack in hindsight, the movement never was fluid or realistic, and limited move sets on smackdown? i think u mean warzone and attitude, anarchy rulz the best acclaim wrestling game imo, and thats just attitude wit more moves and fire tables
-
SD 2 could have been a hellofalot worse than it was. The CAW mode was superior to the first game. The PPV mode was also fun. I had the funniest birthday bash ever with three of my friends (who are not wrestling fans at all) coming over and playing, so i think its a fair judgement.
-
Smackdown 2 was wack...
-
Compared to AKI/THQ the movesets were limited at least the acclaim joints gave me a totally different experience voice acted catchphases and each wrestler played differently , barbed wired gimmick matches etc .
-
Smackdown 2 was a godsend for a kid who only had a ps1 at the time.
It was only so many times you can play Attitude.
Wrestlemania 2000 forced me to get a N64.
I didnt even start back playing playstation until GTA 3 came out -
WWF No Mercy & SmackDown! Here Comes The Pain are the GOAT wrestling games.

Well ? was opposite for me , I got WCW/NWO Revenge then Wrestlemania 2000 my N64 broke a few months before No Mercy came out . So I got a PS and had rented smackdown and my sister got me Smackdown 2 for my birthday . That ? was like going from eating filet mignon to eating spam with nice gimmick matches . at least a ? had Front Mission 3. -
why didnt u jus get another 64?
I got a 64 because it was so cheap at the time.
It was when they came out wit them Ice/Crystal colors and them on sale.
My mom got us two of them. One for my lil brothers and one jus for me to play WM 2000 on.
