A great visual homage to the world of pro-wrestling(the hyphenated japanese performance art) , control wise everyone walks like current day keiji mutoh and the dual analog grapple controls are an interesting concept but is a little too overcomplicated to put it all together and feel like you are having good wrestling matches. I bet with hours of practice some really cool stuff could happen , but a few hours of gameplay you feel like you are fighting against the controller. Reminds me of 2001s "ozumo kakutohen" by konami where they tried really hard to make sumo wrestling a dual stick sport. It doesnt work, but you can appreciate the amount of thought that went into it. This is the only wrestling game i can remember where you can change the camera angle in the game.
