If you were interested in WMX8 for GC.....prepare to be dissapointed

THQ is a publisher, not a developer.


TR3 WAS better than TR4. Or maybe it just seemed like it was to me. Ya see, all they did in 4 was make it more hi-res, they kept all the same animations, etc. as the old game, and added like, 6 new moves, and overall it just seemed like a weak-ass sequel.

NOW, if you wanna talk best TR game ever, look no further than TR2 for N64. Completely different than TR2 for PSOne, this game was the "true" TR sequel that we didn't get on DC. That was the first game to ever have a "season" mode of sorts, which actually had a bit of story to it as well. You could injure your opponents in the season (for example, if you kept putting armbars on a guy forever before ending the match, or if say, you keep piledriving a guy on the outside, he has to sit out a few matches in the season, and when he comes back, you feud with him) and if you were particularly nasty, nWo would ask you to join them. You could say yes, and then, whenever your music hit, it would start with "n...W...O!" or, you could say no, and the nWo would feud with you. Awesome fuckin game, I wish I still had my copy...

Ah, I assume Giant Gram is that wrestling game that had Jeffery and Wolf in it. Giant Gram Featuring Virtua.

I heard about that one, but never played it. I also forgot the name- thanks Korly.

I'm off to ebay...

No problem.

All Japan featuring Virtua is the name of the first game. It's for Saturn.

Giant Gram : All Japan 2 is the name of the sequel, it's for DC, and still has Virtua Fighter characters.

Giant Gram 2000 : All Japan 3 is the name of the third, and best version (DC only) but it does not have Virtua Fighter characters.


Happy hunting.

Your right Korly, Yukes watered down Smackdown like hell compared to TR3.

IMO, there is no better wrestling game than TR3. My only question is how are the All japan games compared to the greatness of TR3??

Cause if they can hang and are on par with TR3, I too will be headed to Ebay.

KORLYS FAVORITE WRESTLING GAMES


1. Giant Gram 2000 [DC] (best one player mode ever)

2. Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 [N64] (mest multiplayer mode, AND K-1 mode!)

3. Firepro D [DC] (deepest overall game, most options, DOWNLOADABLE content, etc.)

4. Touken Retsuden 2 : Touken Road [N64] (best career mode, great control scheme)

5. Touken Retsuden 3 [PSOne]

After reading IGN's hands on impressions of SD4.......well....let's just say it will be better than SD3 but not by much...

WWF Raw 2 for Xbox is looking mighty promising though......then again so was WMX8 and it isn't turning out so great.

After the travesty that the first Raw was for xbox, I have absolutely ZERO faith in the sequel being anymore than pure crap.

I still remember seeing that first Raw video, where Rock, and Austin were going at it, then HHH music hits, and he runs down the ramp (thinking hes going to save the Rock). After Ausin/HHH stare each other down for a sec, then they BOTH start whupping Rock...man, I just about died.

To bad the final game had ZERO in common with that video, not to mention all the other crap they promised but had to "take out at the last second".

Bah.

I dunno, call me nuts if you want, but I still prefer Aki's stuff over what I've played from Yukes.

I really don't get why Aki is currently out of the picture, and I too don't understand how these wrestling games are now getting WORSE again. You take Wrestlemania 2K/No Mercy, you slap them on the GameCube, update the graphics engine, get more characters onscreen, give us true quality Titantron movies and music, and that by itself would sell itself. That's all I ever wanted, and it seems like such a simple thing to do.

I wish I had the power to make games, because I'd love to make a "real" wrestling game. Take those engines, add some enhancements, and then slap the game up online, where you can get "hired" and be part of the show, or you can connect just to watch. Can you imagine having virtual feds that put on a weekly show you could just connect to and watch? How hardcore would that be?

Damn Shidoshi,

Connecting to a server and then watching and participating...That sounds like the exact path of pornography has taken with the internet.

Hehe...
