WWF Royal Rumble for Genesis

WWF Royal Rumble

Hey, how come this version has Hulk Hogan?


Genre: fighting - wrestling

Publisher: Flying Edge

Year: 1993

System: Genesis


Gameplay Score: 3

Gameplay Notes:

Same as previous WWF game. Like, the exact same controls, but with greatly improved hit detection and increased speed. Only notable addition is a grappling meter that shows who is winning. Interesting but mostly pointless. Can't decide which button to mash. Seems to be random each time. Boring, repetitive gameplay, but at least it performs well.


Level Design Score: 2

Level Design Notes:

Same modes as before plus a Battle Royale where six wrestlers jump in at once. Same ring as always.


Theme Score: 2

Theme Notes:

The SNES version didn't have Hulk Hogan but here he is. Weird


Art Style Score: 3

Art Style Notes:

Impressive animation Lots of details like the crowd moving and the announcers ringside. Big bold sprites with more color that the first WWF game.


Audio Score: 1

Audio Notes:

As usual, just crows noise and grunts. The ring sounds nice


Overall Score: 50

Review ID: 1411
