WWF No Mercy (Nintendo 64, 2000)

WWF No Mercy (N64)

The only wrestling game you need!!!

THQ followed up the hit wrestling games WCW vs the World, WCW/NWO Revenge, and WWF Wrestlemani 2000 with this incredible game.

No Mercy offers over 60 characters, 10 arenas, 7 backstage areas, as well as a ton of unlockables.

The Create-a-Wreslter mode is the best I've ever seen. Tons of costumes, body types, and a huge list of wrestling moves makes this CaW simple yet effective.

The gameplay itself is the best I've seen, simple button combos, and the Joystick special makes No Mercy the most enjoyable wrestling game ever made. It's easy enough for children to play, but offers enough of a challenge to keep Adult players satisfied.

Even though I outgrew wrestling, and the PS3 and XBox 360 are now available, I still break out my N64 and play this game monthly.

Pros:

- Awesome Create a Wrestler Mode
- 60+ characters
- Tons of unlockables
- Awesome story modes
- Great graphics
- First Blood Matches

Cons:

- Slowdown issues during 4 player matches
- Climbing out of the cage, or climbing the ladder to get the belt is ridiculous

Final Verdict:

5/5

Rent or Buy: Since I don't think you can rent N64 games anymore this game is a definite buy. I know it's almost 2007, but this is the best wrestling game ever made, and it will probably stand up as the best wrestling game ever made for a long time to come.
