I’m pretty disillusioned with the current state of wrestling games. I realise that there are several factors which can’t be helped which have contributed to the fact that there aren’t many groundbreaking games out there, such as the lack of well known promotions needed to release games, and the fact that wrestling isn’t quite as mainstream as it was six or seven years ago meaning that developers are less likely to take a risk and create a wrestling game. However, a lot of the blame does need to go to the developers. It seems to be that every game is nothing more than a rehash of a previous year’s effort, with a new cosmetic feature and a slightly updated roster. It’s not a great time to be a wrestling fan, as some systems barely have a handful of wrestling titles available...
