WWE WrestleFest on iOS today, coming to XBLA, PSN, PC, Android in 2012

4.7

Well, this is definitely the craziest thing to happen in wrestling games in quite some time -- and wrestling is a sport built entirely on human insanity. WWF WrestleFest, the classic arcade game by Technos, has been updated for release on iOS by THQ. The new "WWE Wrestlefest" has smoother graphics and an updated roster of wrestlers (a rostler, if you will) including John Cena and Randy Orton, alongside old-school wrestlers like the late "Macho Man" Randy Savage. It's also been modernized with "an extensive downloadable content program."

The app is available in a free "Lite" version and a $2.99 "Premium" version for iPhone, and both "Lite" and paid for iPad.

THQ also plans to release this new WrestleFest on XBLA, PSN, Android, and PC, sometime in 2012. So we hope the new version is good.

This looks terrible.
It's a VERY old game, they should have updated the graphics a lot more, like they did with Perfect Dark on XBLA from it's N64 version.
Thats what i mean. I know its old,but it could look a lot better.

And break the nostalgic feel? Not worth it.

Yeah I feel the same regarding those Halo 2 maps in Halo Reach, completely ruined the original feel for me.

The campaign allows you to toggle the graphics, but the multiplayer doesn't seem to.

My guy is Randy Savage. If you get this you can't play as him because he's my guy.
