Anyone still have Showdown: Legends of Wrestling?

Just a quick question for anyone who has it, and has video recording capabilities... was wondering if you could grab a few videos of it in action. If not, no big deal. I just bought a copy for a few bucks on ebay... There aren't a lot of videos out there for it still.

Check out that video. There are a lot of nice reversal animations. Can't wait to give this another try. I have SvR10, but the arena's aren't the same as playing in the old school arenas.

WTF: if you also get legends of wrestlemania I have some sliders I was using to get very long matches. I actually prefer LOWM gameplay, I just wish it's roster was larger.

Yeah, I don't necessarily care for the LoWM gameplay whatsoever. Those mini games just aren't for me. I appreciate it though. I may end up renting it again though.

This game could have been something special if it would have had proper stamina and damage. Sometimes they sell moves, other times they pop right up. If it weren't for that, and a few glitches, this game is a very good title. It's a shame they rushed it out before going under.

Re: Anyone still have Showdown: Legends of Wrestling?

Came in the mail. I'm having a LOT of fun w/ this game. If you never tried it out, then you owe it to yourself. It's a shame that Acclaim rushed it out, and it has the few bugs that it has... Just trying to look at where this game would be today, if they would have been able to take their time w/ QC testing... and future renditions.

Greatest roster to date in a wrestling game, and some of the most fun gameplay. The way that you go from one move to the next is truly still better than the smackdown games today, and pretty much any other 3d game that I've played. Going from a flyswat slam, to a boston crab in one movement is sweet.

It is a LOT better than I remember it, and this is after 2 consecutive days of play. Graphics look a little sharper on the 360 console, albeit I can't get it to play on widescreen... Still yet, pick it up if you can find it for cheap. It's definitely worth it.
