WWF Attitude Game by Acclaim Reviewed by DeathPunk DeathPunk@yahoo.com Size: 8 megabit Save: Password [why!! oh why!!] Released: 1999 Works with: Clear cart [gbc only] **************************************************************************** Opening Snide Remarks: [crowd chanting] UNDERTAKER!!! UNDERTAKER!!!! MU HA HA!!! The end is near...and now we can put Stone cold in his place, without picking up our N64 controller:) This game packs enough DX choppin', Brood blood drinkin', rock bottomin' fun in a small clear cart....that any wrestling fan could have ever dreamed:) Ok,Ok enough with what has been hyped, the truth is WWF attitude is a HUGE dissapointment. The complete lack of moves, after boasting over 100, is unexscusable. Oh that and i'd rather punch myself in the face than play this horrible attempt at a wrestling game. **************************************************************************** Gameplay Descripion: Acclaim has messed up more than a fair share of games in it's 'questionable' history, but this is a NEW low. The fighting system is almost nonexsistent; The hit detection is horrible; And throw in the fact that EVERY character plays exactly the same........... This by far, is one of the worst playing games i've ever played. Period. Liked: Lots of wrestlers Hated: They're all the same **************************************************************************** Graphics Description: Although i've seen games with graphics hundreds of times worse than this, Acclaim really dropped the ball here. In still pictures WWF Attitude looks almost.....well..decent. But pop that baby in your GBC and we have an all expense paid trip to "Crapland", not to metion the 2 hour side trip to "I paid 30 Bucks For This-Burg" What we have is twenty,extremely stiff moving, 2 color, 3 wrestling moves, all look the same, super-simplified wrestlers, in a completley dull ring. The only thing that saves it's score fro a perfect zero is the digitized pictures and the moving WWF logo in the intro. Liked: um...the intro? Hated: variety..... or lack there of. IT's a GBC ONLY GAME!!!!! **************************************************************************** Sound/Music Description: The only thing more annoying than the gameplay and graphics is the sound. Ack-Laim just recycled the fighting sounds from Mortal Kombat 2, and tossed in 'happy cutesy' music. These are sad days:( Liked: the little hum when the power switch is turned off Hated: happy music is bad enough, but in a fighting game? **************************************************************************** Play Control/Game Design: This is the main area where WWF Attitude really falls apart. What was acclaim thinking! Boring gameplay adding with the complete 'ball o' lead' feeling don't quite add up to fun. As for Game design, acclaim did add some nice menus and such but that can't save it. Liked: Menus, intro screen, moving WWF logo Hated: ball-o-lead control **************************************************************************** Improve: Fire the people behind this mistake, Add "...Gameplay...", then hand it to another publisher, so you don't mess up the game further. RIYL: IF YOU are HARDCORE never miss WWF fan you might and i mean might like, not love, this game [just maybe]. But i see 99.999 percent chance of a waste of 29.99. **************************************************************************** Final Words: Why? WHY? Why did Acclaim have to do this! With the impending release of THQ's new WWF game i can't recommend this game AT ALL to anyone except the most rabid of WWF fans. The rest of you.....avoid this clunker like the damn plague! **************************************************************************** Score Gameplay: * Graphics: ** Sound/Music: ** Play Control/Game Design: * Personal Opinion: zero Total: 6 out of 25 stars Final Score:40% Note: This game is in the running for "Deathpunk's craptastic game award". **************************************************************************** Currently Known Codes: none.
