The Simpsons is probably one of the most famous families that exist In the world of cartoons. They not only have one of the longest series in history, but also several games behind them, such as The Simpson Hit and Run, or which we talked about in this article, The Simpson Wrestling.
The Simpson Hit and Run was much more popular than this game, so much so that it could receive a remastering shortly. For this, you don't have to blame yourself if you don't remember The Simpson Wrestling. This game was released for the Sony PS1 and mixed some interesting mechanics.
A fun but tedious game
The game takes place in the city of Springfield, and the game system allowed you to unlock stronger characters With every fight you win. Although in wrestling it is forbidden to use objects to hit your opponents, here almost all the characters have some blunt and sometimes dangerously sharp object with which they can defeat their opponents. No doubt a very rare fighting game.
The Simpson Wrestling can get a bit tedious in the long run, and this is for several reasons. One of them is that the collision detector is almost non-existent, so hitting your enemies is an odyssey. And also because the gameplay It is so disastrous that on many occasions you have no idea what you have to do, or what you are doing. However, it's a fun game, just don't take it too seriously.
You can play with 20 different characters throughout the game, each with the original voices of the television show. In addition, everyone has a movement that differentiates them from the rest and that we can use to defeat our opponent. The Simpson Wrestling also boasts a 3D engine, thanks to the revolution that came with the PS1, but don't expect too much. However, the game manages to maintain the aesthetics of the series quite well.
The game received quite negative reviews from agencies and magazines specialized in video games. It has a 32/100 in Metacritic, however the user rating is slightly higher. Although this game did not have the best mechanics of the time, it did know how to use in its favor the nostalgia of the series and all the internal jokes that the fans of the show were going to understand. Unfortunately, The Simpson Wrestling also appears on the top of the worst PS1 games our WatchMojo.com friends created.
An interesting fact is that this game It was released in 2001 only for PS1, although a year earlier the Sony PlayStation 2 had already been released. This may also have been one of the reasons why this Simpsons game was a bit forgotten. But we are sure that the fans of the series have not forgotten it, and if you are one of them, here are the best Simpson tattoos that you can do, so you can finish sealing the pact.
