4.0 out of 5 stars Simpson's Wrestling
First,let me say,Its good to have a Simpson's game on the Playstation. And this is a good game,especially for the Simpson's fans. The audio is witty,with lots of dialogue created just for this game. There are many possible charachters. BUT.. There just seems like there was so much more possibility. Why are there no 'out of ring' moves? At the least, you should be able to...

3.0 out of 5 stars SIMPSONS WRESTLING--A MEDIOCRE TITLE
yes, being a Simpsons fan and also wrestling, I figured I couldn't lose. I just picked it up today. OK. Its a PS one game and plays good on my PS 2, but--The graphics are reminiscent of Sega Genesis, if you can believe that. The quality is overall just OK. Gameplay is somewhat redundant too, it is fun but its the same thing over and over. It sure is cool that you can be...

This review is from: The Simpson's Wrestling (Video Game)

There are many possible charachters. BUT.. There just seems like there was so much more possibility. Why are there no 'out of ring' moves? At the least, you should be able to jump from the top rope,instead of just jumping up and down on a charachter's head. The graphics are a minus,also, not up to usual PSX standards. More for the Simpsons fans,less for the wrestling or general fight game fan

4.0 out of 5 stars For Fans only, April 9, 2001
This review is from: The Simpson's Wrestling (Video Game)
This game is hilarious and was worth my money...BUT its only for the hardcore Simpsons fans such as myself. The voices are great...the graphics are a little edgy but good but its the details that make it all good. When looking at the backrounds you can see everyone watching from Dr Nick Riviera to Ralph. Everyone has funny moves that relates to their charactor too. Buy it if you love the Simpsons...Rent it if you like them and dont waste your time if you cant stand them.

Gameplay is somewhat redundant too, it is fun but its the same thing over and over. It sure is cool that you can be characters like Barney though. OK, so everything is pretty mediocre I guess I am just spoiled on graphics like in SSX and ZOE. Do I recommend it? Yeah, because its a Simpsons game after all. The sound bites are pretty damn funny. Is it worth 40 bucks? well I wouldnt go THAT far. But its pretty fun. I don't regret getting it. Maybe you could rent it and see for yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Daddy's Soul Donut, November 7, 2002

This review is from: The Simpson's Wrestling (Video Game)
What do you get when you put the cast of "The Simpsons" in a wrestling ring?

Hilarity.

"Simpson's Wrestling" (PlayStation) is a welcome addition to the crowded line of wrestling video games. What sets this game apart from the rest is the inventive moves and weapons, and witty commentary by the show's actual voice actors.

Even if you've upgraded to the PlayStation 2, this is still a fun game to play with your friends. The only shortcoming is that's not a very entertaining one-player game, but I suppose that's true with most sports video games.

Tired of boring old head-locks and Full Nelsons? Well, this is the game for you. Just wait until you take a beating from Groundskeeper Willie's swinging rake. Or see what happens when you catch a whiff of Barney's beer-drenched burp. The most devastating move is Homer's spinning fists of fury - get tagged by one of these babies and you're in a world of hurt.

So, if you're longing for the days of Nintendo's "Pro Wrestling", and Starman's sweet summersault head-kick, you should add "Simpson's Wrestling" to your collection today!

4.0 out of 5 stars Only Simpsons Fans would understand, August 18, 2002
By 
This review is from: The Simpson's Wrestling (Video Game)
This game is fun if you are a die-hard Simpsons fan! I totally enjoyed seeing the different characters and their signature moves. However, the AI in this game is ruthless, and no matter how hard you play, the computer always wins! I suggest you grab a friend and play this game, human vs. human, because you will have a lot more fun. I am one of the biggest Simpsons fans, and I believe that if you are one, too, you should own this game.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Sure, April 11, 2001
By 
stephen Garry (Manchester England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Simpson's Wrestling (Video Game)
As a wrestling game Simpsons doesnt really cut it but it does provide loads of fun. Simpsons Wrestling has all of the characters from the television show so everyone will be able to choose a player that they like. This game is more based around fun than serious playing, so if you want to wrestle seriously i would recommend that you buy Smackdown2. I feel that they have brought out a lighthearted version to entertain everyone and keep the younger end of the market happy, although i play it and im 23

4.0 out of 5 stars Good fun that needs work, September 1, 2001
By 
This review is from: The Simpson's Wrestling (Video Game)
Graphics: 8/10 - Good character designs, pictures, backgrounds and sets. Satisfying and not too blocky. One of the only areas this game fully, hard-out excels in is its bloody good graphics.

Sound: 8/10 - Great character voices as usual and some characters have neat tools like bangers or stakes which allow the sound to get carried away with a fabulous calmness.

Value: 6/10 - Not worth playing unless your getting sick of the WWF games or Crash Bash. Fun stuff, but not for everyone. I would only buy it for a under-$50 price.

Overall: 7/10 - Fun to play with a lot of people. It's is awesome to see those memorable Simpsons characters in fist-action, but this still has some things it needs to work on. I think Simpsons Wrestling needs more modes and some better designs. Still, it is good fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simpsons Wrestling - Why does everyone hate it?, April 3, 2002
This review is from: The Simpson's Wrestling (Video Game)
My first playstation game was the Simpsons Wrestling. I 've read all of the reviews on it, but everyone seems to hate it. I loved all parts about it, but it was a wonder I bought it at all with all of these other reviews that don't like it. I got it for 30 bucks, and it was completely worth it. I love fighting games and the simpsons both, and this was the perfect combination. Being Barney and Moe was a great experience with different places to fight, and the gas attack by Barney was clever. Find the codes somewhere, then it's even Moe(sorry , that was a stupid joke) fun. To put it short, the Simpson's Wrestling (prepare for another stupid joke) hits a Homer.

3.0 out of 5 stars I love the simpsons, February 26, 2002

This review is from: The Simpson's Wrestling (Video Game)
I'm a big simpsons fan but not the best game player. My boyfriend bought this for me Christmas just because I like the simpsons and I needed a new playstation game. Ok, so it's not anything like "final fantasy" or "tomb raider", (the only other playstation games I've ever played), but it is quick and easy and a lot of fun if you just want to waste a few hours on a saturday. It's really geared toward simpson fans so if you're not a fan, don't waste your money.

2.0 out of 5 stars They could have made it a classic, August 28, 2001
This review is from: The Simpson's Wrestling (Video Game)
I rented this game from Blockbuster because I knew it could have been either great, or terrible. It was near the terrible line. The graphics weren't great and overall, it just wasn't good enough to be a good game.
