Legends of wrestling hit the shelves in 2001, and it was produced by Acclaim. I'm only aware of it's existence, because my grandma owned it. Legends of wrestling features Hulk Hogan, RVD, the Von Erich brothers, and more! The graphics are good for it's time, but the game mechanics kill the fun. The default option for moving your wrestler is the d-pad instead of the analog stick. This would've made sense for the NES, SNES, and Gameboy. This is completely unacceptable for the PlayStation 2, it's inconvenient for the player.
Having to smash a button, while stunned is kind of lame too. A simple counter move mechanic is preferable, I don't really see the point in the stun thing to begin with. A game based on the terrority era could've been great, this attempt wasn't unfortunately.
