This game is a great game for the N64 videogame console. It has a lot of modes such as Ladder Matches(Single Player and Tag Team), Survival Mode where you battle against 100 opponents in an effort to go 100-0, A Steel Cage Match and the Main Mode for the Single Player. The career mode allows you to choose wrestling for 7 titles including World, European, Hardcore, Womens and more. Angles play out with-in the mode depending on whom you choose to align with or go against, attacks can be set up against you in backstage areas or interferences can help you if aligned with somebody. The Smackdown Mall is another extensive feature as it allows you to gain points upon completion of matches and Title victories and lets you access hidden wrestlers, extra costumes and more. A slight word of caution though, when having 4 wrestlers on screen the game can slow down a little bit due to the amount of activity happening at worse. It's bearable but it may turn some gamers off. Another word of caution is that the game tends to lose information unless it's saved. Therefore, any Created Wrestlers or Championship Mode games may be erased if not saved after every match or every creation. This may just be a glitch in the game or it could be an error looked over by Asmik but it's a precaution. However, not all games have this glitch so it's unknown if the games will be called back(Like Perfect Dark) and the bug will be fixed.

Finally a wwf game worth buying! WWF no mercy is going to have all the modes you've been waiting for.You can step in the ring in a first ever ladder match! Dont wanna wrestle? Then be a speical guest referee. You can even play a iron man match.There's also a all new smackdown mall where you collect points to buy costumes,weapons,and even secret wrestlers like shawn micheals,Ken shamrock,and even the 7ft 5 inch Andre the Gaint! Plus it has expanded career mode,expanded create a wrestler mode,

and expanded graphics! Why not enter a survivul mode to try to beat 100 wrestlers without a loss! With over 65 wrestlers, this is definitely going to be the best wrestling game ever created!!!

The most recent WWF game for the Nintendo 64 turns out to be the best yet. Improving upon the gameplay of last year's Wrestlemania 2000, THQ has updated the roster to include new characters such as Chris Benoit, Eddy Guererro, Trish Stratus, The Dudley's, and Kurt Angle, and character from the previous game now sport the current costumes. New match options allow you to compete in a three-way dance, a ladder match, or even brawl backstage in areas ranging from a boiler room to the arena parking lot.

In addition to the new matches, THQ has gotten rid of the Road To Wrestlemania from WM 2000 and replaced it with a more interesting championship mode where you choose the belt you wish to capture and a storyline develops based not only on your wins and losses, but also by the alliances you form with other wrestlers.

The gameplay is simple enough to allow a rookie to jump right in and have fun. No button combinations here to learn (like in the old Acclaim WWF Playstation games) just to do the simplest of moves. I guarantee that anybody will have the hang of the game in less than five minutes. It's that easy to jump into. And if you're a veteran, turn the difficulty up and you will be challenged by the computer.

Throw in the create-a-wrestler option, useful for creating anybody from Dude Love to Rob Van Dam to Kenta Kobashi, and you can play this game over and over again. Or at least until THQ releases their next WWF title for the N64. Anybody who is a wrestling fan should enjoy this.

Ok, I just picked up WWF No Mercy at my local game retailer today, and, after playing it for the last 8 hours(yes, you read correctly), I am already having withdrawl. Anyhow, WWF No Mercy is by far the best Wrestling game ever for the N64. I don't say best ever game, cause I have not played Smackdown 2 yet. However, No Mercy is just AWESOME. From the Ladder Match to Hardcore matches to backstage Brawling, it just rules. Plus, the Create-A-Wrestler is much improved from WM2K. And, the championship Season modes are much better as well. If you loved WM2K, you will not sleep(or eat)once you pick up No Mercy. It is a game that will definately not go stale for a long, LONG time.

WWF No Mercy is a great game. The ladder match is awesome, the referee match is just to SWEET, and the Career mode is cool. I love putting MR. RICHARDS and the rest of RTC through the different tables. The Finishers look real(like Takers LAST RIDE, and Rikishis Bonzai Drop.) I even created my own elite group, called the Right To Be Uncensored. I love all the different weapons, like the cheese, the rocks book, the beer can, and the title belts. The create a player is awesome. I also like the selection of wrestlers. I also think it is a great tribute to the late Andre the Giant for putting him in the game. Thats all I have to say. Bye.

Oh wait one more thing, AND THATS THE BOTTOM LINE 'CAUSE I JUST SAID SO.

Since I got this game fore christmas a few years a go I have played it again and again! I on average still play this game once a week usually more. It has good graphics considering everything, relase date, being on n64 everything. I made myself on the game and went throught the story mode for all the belts and just cant get enough of the game soo much fun, if you love wrestling and have played the other ones such as, wcw nwo world tour or revenge. then you will love this game for sure!! I am giving it a 5 star rating I plan on continually playing it for years to come. I make new wrestlers seems how thats really decent for this game, and use those wrestlers in different modes of game play for fun. but even the top superstars like kane, undertaker ,austin, hhh, are all fun to use no matter what game mode you play! Good multiplayer as well :)! please do buy it you wont regret it, unless you hate wrestling!

This is hands down THE best wrestling game for the Nintendo 64 game console. It's basically WrestleMania 2000, only taken to the next level. I give the all new Ladder Match a 10/10. There is nothing more fun than doing a move off of the top rung of the ladder. The Guest Referee match also gets a 10/10. If you don't feel like wrestling, go into this mode and referee a match, counting wrestlers out or counting the three count as fast/slow as you want. The 60 minute Iron Man Match gets a 9/10. It is very entertaining, but who wants to sit there for an hour getting fall after fall? And of course, you still have the exhibition matches, which include single match, tag team, triple threat, handicap, and cage matches. With new wrestlers such as the Radicalz,the new Undertaker, Lita, Rikishi, Trish Stratus and more added to the already impressive roster it will take a long time to lay the smack down on all them jabronis. But make no mistake about it, this game will keep you entertained for hours. I couldn't(and still can't) put it away! THQ should be proud of themselves.

I own WCW vs. NWO world tour. There were alot of things about the game I thought they could change to make it better. I rented a few other games but none really satisfied me. Well, I rented WWF No Mercy and played it and I was amazed. First all the different matches you can have like a ladder, <single, triple threat, or tag>, a cage, iron man, royal rumble, etc. I wish it had a survivor series but it doesn't. Second, you could choose from multiple rings that look good. There are plenty of wrestlers and all of them have great looking uniforms. Also you can create wrestlers. You can buy clothes from the Smackdown mall and create wrestlers not on the game like Dude Love. There are also secret characters in the game. You can even buy some like Shawn Michaels and Ken Shamrock. The story mode is pretty fun. And some of the locker room brawls are great. If you are into wrestling games this is a perfect game. People who may not like wrestling should also check it out. This game should be owned by everyone.

Like I said in my title you do not have to watch the WWF to enjoy this great N64 title. True I was a fan of the WWF when I purchased this, but even though I do not currently watch it that doesn't mean this game sees no action. Similar in many ways to its predecessor "Wrestlmania 2000", "No Mercy" attempts to turn it up a notch. This time around many new features are included such as ladder matches, backstage fighting and more destructible object than ever. The roster selection is huge allowing a different type of wrestler for every different type player, and if that doesn't satisfy your needs you can head over to the well done create a wrestler mode and make your own. Career mode allows you to start a campaign for a title belt, which includes a different storyline for every belt. Multiplayer modes could not be better as up to 4 of you and your friends battle it out in multiplayer matches like royal rumble and tag team. This game is worth every penny and should not be overlooked by any wrestling fan or video game fan.

WWF No Mercy is one of those games that is, by no means, a bad game. It just disappoints in a few key areas. Overall, this is a great game. In fact, the enhancements that No Mercy has over its predecessor, Wrestlemania 2000, are noticeable and very welcome.

The animated graphics of the wrestlers are noticeably improved, much smoother, less choppy, and a lot less frequent "odd-angles" where you can see through wrestlers or one overlapping the other. The backgrounds of the various Pay-Per-View rings and other locales are defined in greater detail with added extras like steel-steps leading up to the ring and the announcer's tables.

The roster is larger and updated, as expected. Tazz, Kurt Angle, Bull Buchanan, Essa Rios, Trish Stratus, and pretty much all of the new WWF Superstars are represented in the game. Only notables missing from the current roster to me were Raven, Big Show, and William Regal who most likely didn't make the roster deadline.

WWF No Mercy adds a LOT more finishers and unique moves to the characters than Wrestlemania 2000 had. Even Shane McMahon has his juke-and-jive punching finisher and fleet-footed dancing around the ring taunt. Rikishi has his infamous but-smack taunt, and Rock has been updated with his "just bring it" taunt.

A great addition to No Mercy is the ability to fight backstage in areas like the boiler room, the bar, and the locker room. This is probably my favorite addition to the game. These areas usually follow "Hard-Core" rules and allow you to beat the ... out of your opponent with everything from pool sticks to fire extinguishers.

The gameplay for No Mercy is quite different than WM 2000. Being a die-hard fan of WM2K, I'm still not quite sure that I like the new "career" modes of the game. Instead of picking one Wrestler and making your way up the ranks through a full "season" of wrestling, instead you just pick the belt you wish to go for and then select a wrestler to try and achieve it with. While this does provide for more variety in wrestlers that you control, it basically creates "short" seasons to play in. No more than 10 matches with one wrestler.

WWF No Mercy does incorporate storylines from the real WWF television events but I have to admit they are a bit goofy because they aren't tied to the original characters.

Where does No Mercy fail? In one key area, the lagged gameplay when there are more than 2 wrestlers in the ring is very noticable. Don't get me wrong, the game is still playable, it's just the speed of the game drops about 1/3 of normal when there are four in the ring.

Overall, this is a fun game. If you were a fan of WM2K, you should find as many quality hours of gameplay with No Mercy as you did with the original. If you are new to THQ's wrestling games, you can't go wrong with No Mercy as your first introduction into this genre.
