Critic Reviews

65 GameSpot
If you're a hard-core video game wrestling fan with a cadre of game systems, there are better choices.
60 Happy Puppy
One of the deepest games ever created. Too bad all the time spent with the options couldn't have been devoted to gameplay instead.
60 Dreamcast HQ
One thing ECW:AR walks all over the competition with are options and matches. I have never seen so many type of matches in a game before.
40 GamerWeb Sega
In keeping with the fine ECW tradition, this game is a vile piece of garbage that's a rip-off at half the price.
40 CNET Gamecenter
Although the sheer volume of wrestling personalities and gameplay options prevent it from being a complete write-off, it still ranks somewhere between late-night infomercials and the Jerry Springer Show for outright entertainment value.
20 Hot Games
It's as tired and useless as many of the wrestlers represented, and playing this is almost like watching a seniors match in wrestling -- old familiar faces doing the same old, familiar moves that made them famous.
20 DC Swirl
Acclaim needs a new engine and they need it to be radiclly different.

Rulz is an ass sandwich. We took a bite so you don't have to.
