CRITICAL!: The History of Wrestling Video Games

The booooys are back in-wrong podcast. We're getting tired of these WWE games that release every year and barely add anything new. But at least we've got the NU SCHOOL! We also talk about the Netflix shows the Queen of Villains and Mr. McMahon. One is very fun, the other really doesn't bring anything new to the table. Watch the Omni show on the WWE Vault Youtube channel so we can get more cool stuff.

SmackDown vs RAW 2008 is a video game. Wrestling Twitter sucks. But hey, there's some fun stuff to talk about including SCOOPS on the status of a Fight Forever sequel and details on an unmade AKI game.

This episode is about WWE Smackdown! Vs RAW 2007, Rick Rude hallucinations, and comfortable underwear.

A doozy of an episode. We review SVR '06, a game which doesn't offer much fun unless you really hate Teddy Long. We also talk the UPW Manhattan Center inspired arena, reminisce on WCW and what could have been, the hellhole that is X and memories of the Master and Ruler of the World.

Rest in Peace, Sid

The easiest way to describe SmackDown! Vs RAW is Here Comes The Pain without the soul. But we go into further detail, as well as talk Bastante Bueno Lucha Libre, The Wrestling Code technical demo, the state of UPW and a lot more.

For years, WWE SmackDown!: Here Comes the Pain has been considered one of the best wrestling games of all time. Headlined by the top stars of the Attitude Era, new faces such as Goldberg and Brock Lesnar as well as the SmackDown Six. Does it still hold up in 2024? Let's find out!

I've always thought Shut Your Mouth was an underrated game because of what came after it. On it's own, it's still a really fun game with a tremendous graphical update. Except for the CAWs...

Finally! The episode is...here. On Smackdown! Just bring it. Woah! The review. Alex Wright!..is a really great person.

Not much wrestling game news this week but there's a helluva lot of figure talk coming out of Comic Con. We talk all the wrestling brands as well as Marvel and DC.

Happy 75th birthday, Mongo! Somehow, we were able to record an episode that is under an hour! We take a look at the Simple Series games. Japanese releases by YUKES using the Smackdown engine. We also talk Steve Masson's Neckbreaker game, Fight Forever and pre-Comic Con figure reveals.
