I’ll gladly accept the ‘L’ that comes with this, but in my defense, we typically do not think of those match types as battle royals. For starters, and thanks to the comments from a few helpful readers, I discovered that triple threat and four-corner matches are indeed included in the game in the Battle Royal mode. I wrote my initial impressions a few months ago, so I thought it was worth revisiting how the game feels after spending some more time with it. I would have preferred a Nintendo Switch edition as the gameplay and graphics would lend nicely to Nintendo’s portable console, but hey, I’ll take what I can get. Opening the Vault of Classic Memphis Wrestling (Ep.As a lifelong fan of wrestling and video games, I was very excited when I found out that Fire Pro Wrestling was making a proper North American return to the PS4.Signed Trading Cards: Penelope Ford, Darby Allin.Signed Trading Cards: MSP, Josh Briggs, Anthony Gr.There is a learning curve to any FPW, but once you put the time in its so rewarding and it’s hard to go back to something like the 2K series. I didn’t appreciate FPW on the Gameboy Advance, but once Fire Pro Wrestling Returns hit PS2, I took the time to really learn about the game, how to play, and I found myself enjoying this very simple, but difficult game. It’s basically a game about wrestling psychology hidden behind some very nicely animated 2D graphics. No one is going to come out doing finishes or pile driving opponents, so, if you attempt to do something like that in FPW you’ll fail, or it’ll be reverse and this can throw off your momentum and screw up your match. For example: most matches start off with light punches, kicks and a lock up or two. Your goal is to pace the match out, use your big spots when they are needed, and don’t try doing moves you haven’t worked your way up to yet. So, if you spend the game dominating your opponent, the crowd will not find it entertaining and you will not receive a good match grade. In FPW, your goal is to tell an entertaining match not simply beat your opponent. It’s just the best looking (and really only) option we have. Raw and 2K franchise over the years, but it’s not a good wrestling game. Don’t get wrong, I’ve enjoyed the Smackdown vs. I once heard a GameStop employee describe the WWE 2K games as “a really bad fighting game” and I had to concur. It still uses 2D sprites and runs on a gameplay engine that rewards timing and putting on a good match over button mashing. Very little has changed over the years with Fire Pro Wrestling.
