[PS2] All Star Pro-Wrestling ROM Download
All Star Pro-Wrestling ROM Description
In the early days of the PlayStation 2, Japanese game developer Square sought to expand beyond their traditional RPG roots by releasing a variety of new genres. One such experiment was the pro wrestling game All Star Pro-Wrestling, published exclusively in Japan in June 2000. This marked the first wrestling title on Sony’s powerful new console.
Staying true to its Japanese origins, All Star Pro-Wrestling emphasized fighters from the world of puroresu rather than American wrestling. Players could select from over 25 real-life wrestlers to battle it out in exhibition matches, tournaments, championships, or leagues organized by weight class. Fan favorites like Jyushin Thunder Liger, The Great Muta, and Antonio Inoki were featured on the roster.
The visuals aimed to capture the look and feel of a live wrestling broadcast with lifelike character models and animations. Signature moves flowed smoothly and the camera angles heightened the spectacle. While the graphics were praised at release, the controls using the DualShock 2’s analog sticks to move and attack proved awkward for most. Veterans of wrestling games struggled to grasp the unique system.
Despite controls that many deemed unintuitive, All Star Pro-Wrestling found an audience thanks to the thrill of playable legends, different modes, and cinematic atmosphere. For curious retro enthusiasts, this PS2-exclusive is worth seeking out on ROMsdl.NET along with classics like Final Fantasy X to experience a wrestling product straight from the Land of the Rising Sun. The spirit of puroresu lives on even today.
