@AD – I always preferred WCW vs NWO Revenge to No Mercy in the N64 days. Whether that was because I was a bigger WCW fan, who knows.

I still think WWE No Mercy on the N64 is the best wrestling game ever.
They really dropped the ball in Smackdown vs raw with reducing the moves list. Their story mode and all the match options were awesome.
I gave up after two versions of Smackdown vs. Raw. I felt they had taken a huge step back. I will always compare them to No Mercy.

Graphics may look prettier but the multiplayer modes were awesome in No Mercy even though they were a bit laggy at times.
Maybe you have given me hope. Altthough I would love to Create Scott Hall, Razor Ramon, Sabu, RVD, Sting, Ultimate Warrior and guys like that. You had the flexibility in No Mercy and you couldnt in all the other WWE forms. The entrance models were great too… It was ahead of its time. I still tend to bring it out and play with it.

I was a HUGE WWE gamer fan until they came out with smackdown vs raw… 2006 i believe. I played it once and never picked it up again but by the sounds of your review maybe i should give their new games a second chance

I never got into the WWE games at all. Something about them that didn’t grab my attention as much as games like Tekken and SC
