The 5 best WWE video games of all time

1: SmackDown: Here Comes The Pain

SmackDown: Here Comes The Pain is the last installment of the SmackDown series of f games and an all-time classic

Here Comes The Pain is the last edition of the brilliant line of SmackDown games. The graphics looked really good for its time and features a jam-packed roster of 60 Superstars. It’s the first game to feature John Cena, Batista and Rey Mysterio for the first time and the only WWE game to feature Ultimo Dragon. Here Comes The Pain was also the first WWE game to feature legends.

Entrances in the game look really good even though there are a lot of recycled entrance animations. The game engine is revamped from previous editions and features a more complex and satisfying grappling system. Gameplay is flawless with the quick arcade feel and flows better than most current WWE games. However, one problem with this game is that there is no commentary whatsoever.

Add to this one hell of a season mode, tons of match types including the debuting elimination chamber and an in-depth creation suite and you have one hell of a game. The ability to fight backstage, fight in Times Square and the ability to give an elbow drop from a helicopter just pushed this game to the next level.
