WWF - Rage in the Cage
You can't cage Hulk Hogan, apparentlyGenre: fighting - wrestling
Publisher: Arena
Year: 1993
System: Sega CD
Gameplay Score: 3
Gameplay Notes:
Plays like all the cartridge WWF games. Same controls, but with good hit detection and speed. The grappling meter is here, so I think this a suped-up version o fWWF Royal Rumble. Boring, repetitive gameplay, but at least it performs well.
Level Design Score: 2
Level Design Notes:
Wait, this can't be WWF Royal Rumble because the Battle royale mode is missing. Lame. In any case, The modes are One Fall (exhibition), Brawl, Cage Match, and Tournament. One Fall and Brawl are the same except Brawl ends when one of you runs out of health, like a 1v1 fighting game. The other two should be obvious. Same ring as always. 9 difficulty levels make this an approachable and accessible title.
Theme Score: 4
Theme Notes:
No Hulk Hogan! Twenty different fighters. Each bout begins with a skippable voice intro for each wrestler. Love it.
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: 3
Audio Notes:
As usual, just crows noise and grunts. The ring sounds nice. the voice samples round out the package.
Overall Score: 56
