This game allows you to be a Pro-Wrestler and rewards you based on how well your performance is. This is a very different and interesting concept from most other wrestling games where you are competing as you would in conventional fighting games. Although wrestling is highly physical and violent, it is a show, and in this game that is how you approach the matches. The game has various modes and wrestlers (mainly from NJPW, a real-life professional league from Japan) and a very good tutorial mode which had me memorizing different maneuvers and holds very quickly. Gameplay is centered around timing your grapples. In the beginning, it may frustrate you, but once you get the hang of this, everything else opens up. The game also features a edit mode that allows you to create your own wrestlers, championship titles, ring aprons and more. If you love spending time making your own creations in games, you'll enjoy how deep this mode is. The game also has a story mode and online competition. This is a very unique and deep wrestling game that I think all fans should try.

If you like retro wrestling games this one is good. The customization and downloadable content created by other players is great. The controls can be a little clunky and tough to pick up, but worth it given a little patience.

This is such a fun game. It has a steep learning curve and it is a complete throwback to games that came out in the Nintendo era, but it is leaps above the current WWE games. Highly recommend it for people who want a change.

Great game play, insane depth. This is the only wrestling game you'll want. It's got a bit of a learning curve, but once you've spent some time sharpening your skills you will not want to stop. If you want a wrestling game, you've found it.

Awesome gameplay always with the firepro series.njpw roster a plus.love the round robin tournament even though I lost my first tournament. Breathe is a must to survive.
