Still an amazing game! My brother and I played hundreds of hours with wrestlemania 2000 then when we got no mercy it was beautiful. The 2k games still aren't as fun

Agreed. I wish we could have a similar control scheme to No Mercy in the current wrestling games.

Bradshaw Hammer and The Rock's jumping clothesline were the realest moves.

There's also bans awaiting those that disagree with this being the GOAT wrestling game.

So much to love about this game. I still don't have any comprehension of why they moved away from having separate reversal buttons. It used to be a chess match, now once you get the timing it's just too easy to reverse moves, even finishers. Having the reversal limit helped, but I still preferred 1 button to reverse strikes and 1 for grapples.

Rose tinted glasses still sell well worldwide I see....

Cracking game to be honest and much like Sensible Soccer Miles and miles ahead of its time. The hours I sunk in this and WM 2000 and the WCW/NWO games on N64. Brilliant.

Plenty of modern games have surpassed them in depth and quality but fun factor it was spot on.

Man me me and the neighborhood kids dropped sooooooo many hours into this back in the day. We all created multiple characters had 3 announcing teams that would call matches from the couch lol.me and my brother were tag team champs before the Pizza Hut incident when I went off on my own to become the intercontinental champion. He would interfere in a match I had later and cost me the title.

Idk if it was being young and having an imagination but they just don't games like this anymore
