Quick Look: Fire Pro Wrestling

boo

cool

WRASTLIN'

The 'video feature' intro thing seems to be echoing ever so slightly or something? Find it jarring as hell.

Oh damn, just from that thumbnail I am already excited. I am ready for some Wednesday Afternoon Wrasslin!

He's gonna make sweet love to him, from the back.

This should not be called Fire Pro Wrestling...

IT'S STILL REAL TO ME DAMN IT

IT'S NOT A CRIME TO HAVE A GREASY MOUTH AND PEE IN YOUR JORTS

OH YEAAAAHHHHHHHHHH, BROTHER!

THOSE GEMS ARE SUUUUPER RAD BROTHER!

terrible

08:09 Finally! I always wondered what the bottom of an avatar's shoe looks like

An avatar game? In 2012?

Since this uses the avatar clothing you can buy from XBL I guess you could use all of the WWE Avatar stuff in this game.

One of the best Quick Look thumbnails ever.

Audio is hella out of sync.

interesting

Seriously. Gave me an uneasy feeling.

Gold is pretty malleable, so no surprise there, but Diamond is the hardest metal known to man, so I can see where the confusion would be.

Avatars are pretty much the worst part about the 360.

This looks pretty bad. Like, PS1 era controls and physics bad.

There are literally no words to describe how damn terrible this is, and how offended I am as a Fire Pro guy...

...

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAA

Man, that camera was getting to me, its movement is so...chunky. Like it doesn't know where to go or how to move so it just jitters around.

Does your avatar commit suicide at the end?

Well, this looks like shit.

Vaders big mask was so bad ass

This game is not. I'd love a proper Fire Pro game that actually got a release in Europe but alas, we get this instead.

How dare Jeff not remember Big Van Vader's 'Mastodon' mask!! that thing was fucking awesome, shooting smoke out of it and shit. It had a few different permutations.

Vader was the best, any dude who has the fortitude to pop his eye back in the socket during a match is probably the greatest wrestler of all time. Jim Cornette has told some interesting stories from his time as Vader's manager. Search out some Jim Cornette interviews if you ever want to hear some interesting stories from back in the day.

If i had gold I'd think about getting this.

I still see no reason to sign up for gold until maybe Halo 4.

Have the videos lately been kind of "murky?" For lack of a better word.

This looks like the most garbage-y garbage I've seen in awhile.

haha you said cargo jorts. Quick Look success!

This looks just as bad as the avatar garbage that clogs up the xblig marketplace.

Ah, be fair. Having to pay Microsoft so I can play my friends online is the worst thing about the 360

I suppose the game being a joke mirrors the fact that wrestling as a "sport" is also a joke.

I thought maybe despite all the avatar stuff this might be okay, but it looks terrible. You can't even blame that on the avatars, the game is simply dull and clunky.

Jeff/Ryan matchup in Ultimate Muscle: Legends Vs New Generation, MAKE IT HAPPEN.

With those pants you should name him NachoSwede

The customisation looks pretty crap.

The only question that matters and nobody has asked it:

Does it play like Fire Pro?

HEY GUYS ARE WE TALKING ABOUT VADER IN HERE?!

Ryan is right. Vader's Mastodon mask was the coolest/most terrifying mask in wrestling history.

Giant Bomb, my #1 source for Wrestling related topics!

GiantBomb.com, its a website about Wrestling!

This wouldn't look out of place as an Xbox Live Indie game...

They have grown on me. The crappy icons people use to represent themselves on PSN are dumb.

I was enjoying Keflings before Famestar, but even that got old quick. This seems painful, and almost like the game is secondary.

Yup. Back to Fire Pro Wrestling Returns.

This looks like the hottest garbage. The hottest.

This garbage is so hot I can smell it from here!

This game is a travesty.
