This rowdy game captures all the flash and flair of pro wrestling. Real life WWF standouts star in this show. You get 12 of them, including The Undertaker, Macho j Man Randy Savage, and of course Hulk Hogan. There's an outstanding variety of game play -- 37 bodacious moves come standard. Each wrestler also has a special move, like Papa Shango's Shoulder-breaker. On defense, you can kick out of pins, roll away, or use j that all-time classic -- jump out of the ring!
Mastering all the moves with only three buttons is a major achievement. The game supports the six-button controller, though, and that's the best way to play. WWF has a well-managed method to its madness. You can play a one-on-one Brawl, a 12-opponent Tournament, two- or three-man Tag Teams, or the outrageous Royal Rumble, where you fight all 12 foes, six guys at a time!
The graphics in this game are wild and wicked. Bodyslams, eye gouges, suplexes, and choke holds are smooth and realistically intense. The sounds put on an okay show. The music rocks, and the grunts and body slaps against the mat are plentiful.
