Decent at best

Legends Of Wrestling was a game that was created with all good intentions to give fans of wrestling a game that feature many of the greats to ever step into the ring.

With the roster being: Hulk Hogan Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka Road Warrior Hawk,Road Warrior Animal,Bret "Hitman" Hart,The Iron Sheik,Mr. Fuji,Terry Funk Don Muraco,Jerry "The King" Lawler,George "The Animal" Steele, "Mr. USA" Tony Atlas,Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat,Nikolai Volkoff,Ted DiBiase,Tito Santana,King Kong Bundy,Koko B. Ware,One Man Gang ,Greg "The Hammer" Valentine,Harley Race,Ricky Morton,Robert Gibson, "Flyin'" Brian Pillman,Superstar Billy Graham,"Hot Stuff" Eddie Gilbert,Rick Martel,Ivan Koloff,Ivan Putski,"Cowboy" Bob Orton The Sheik,Kerry Von Erich,Fritz Von Erich,Kevin Von Erich,Dory Funk, Jr,Sabu,"Captain" Lou Albano,"The Mouth of the South" Jimmy Hart

Plus you get to wrestle in different types of arenas that give you that nostalgia feeling when it comes to watching wrestling

While that makes it a very impressive roster there are some things that keep this game from being fun.

The problem with this game is that it is more about the looks rather then the game play.

The graphics are very good and it does show case the wrestlers in their prime the arenas look impressive for the game.

Sound is good as well though none of the wrestlers have the theme songs we were used to hearing when they came out. So we were stuck with tracks created for the game.

The controls more or less work it just takes some time to get use to as you do have to button mash in most battles

The game play is just hard to get use to and some times I got let down and couldn't win despite my best effort

So what we got is a game that is cool to look at but mix to play at least to me. If you love Wrestling then you might find this game enjoyable it just a decent title to me but does have something going for it.

I give Legends Of Wrestling an 6 out of 10

You can get to play this game as one of your favorite wrestlers, which include Hulk Hogan, Bret "Hit Man" Hart, Rob Van Dam, George "The Animal" Steele, Road Warriors Hawk and Animal, and more! Plus, there's your managers. For example, there's the "Mouth of the South," Jimmy Hart!!
