WWF SuperStars review - Nintendo Gameboy

Take to the World Wrestling Federation ring and kick, punch and pin some monkey ass! This Gameboy adaptation of the mega American "sport" enables you to adopt the persona of either Mr Perfect, The Ultimate Warrior, Hulk Hogan, Macho King Randy Savage or Ted DiBiase - The Million Dollar Man!

Your objective in the game is to fight your way to the top of the World Wrestling Federation in pursuit of the coveted world title. To achieve this end, you face up to the rest of the WWF wrestlers featured in the game in a series of terrifying, but yet entertaining bouts (one or three falls, with or without a time limit - it's up to you).

Once you're in the ring, your aim is simply to force your opponent to stay on the canvas for three seconds. You can do this with a couple of methods. Firstly you can pin your opponent to the canvas (although if he's got enough energy he shrugs off your assault), or you can cause him so much damage that he'll keel over and not get up!

What the Mean Machines staff thought

Unlike their real-life counterparts, the wrestlers in this game are complete pushovers and finishing the game is very easy. However, the two-player mode is absolutely brilliant and offers plenty of thrills 'n' spills. WWF fans should love it!

It's very easy to finish, but WWF Superstars is just great fun - especially when taking part in a one-on-one two-player bout. Classy graphics and decent playability make this one to check out and pronto!
