WWE All Stars, developed by THQ San Diego, was released in 2011for multiple consoles including Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Wii and Playstation 2. Handheld versions of the game were also released (the first and only WWE game on the Nintendo 3DS).
All Stars is a very big departure from other WWE games released during this era. THQ San Diego wanted to make a fighting game featuring characters and moves associated with WWE. Yukes had previously tried their own spin-off wrestling game (Legends of WrestleMania) in 2009 however the game wasn't met with praise due to it's limited moveset and questionable game mechanics; All Stars fixes these issues by using a completely new game engine with a bigger focus on combos, juggling and over-the-top signature moves.
At it's core WWE All Stars is all about 2 generations of pro wrestlers sharing 1 ring. Legends of the past including Hulk Hogan, Ultimate Warrior, Randy Savage and Bret Hart get to have matches with modern superstars (at the time) such as CM Punk, Triple H, Edge and The Miz. The single player "Fantasy Warfare" mode allowed players to decide who would win dream matches such as Steve Austin vs CM Punk, and players also had the ability to create own wrestlers in All Stars' creation suite. What was so special about WWE All Stars though was the gameplay, there was never a wrestling game like this before and still, to this day, it's very fun to play.

This game legit got a few of my friends into wrestling... This year. During a hangout, was my turn to pick a game so I put this one. They rolled their eyes at first, "ugh here comes Matt with his wrestling again". By the end of the hour they were cutting promos on each other and threatening to DDT each other. This game is glorious, wish they'd do another like it. ESPECIALLY after hearing what plans they had for the sequel

I agree with you on the online as i tried it when it came out and if you threw one punch they would combo you to death. Also Macho Man was doing promo for this game which was the last thing WWE related he did before his passing.

@fernandosaker3667 10 месяцев назад

I like this cartoony style! In a way, wrestlers are kinda like "real-life comic book characters" (what with the colorful costumes, good vs. evil storylines, special moves and so on), so I think this style fits very well with the game. I also like this idea of "2 generations, 1 ring" - though I guess I'd prefer if this clash of generations was between the WWF Golden era and the Attitude era (since they were very different in style, as far as I know, so it would be interesting to see the contrast between the two rosters). Also, it wouldn't hurt to include some managers and some female wrestlers. Nevertheless, this game looks very interesting.

I know they aren’t the same game because the 2k games are grounded in reality, but if this game was a legit series with sequels it would dominate. A simple, over the top, arcade wrestler with a good amount of legendary wrestlers, signature moves, combos and unlock-able content. I remember when they first announced WWE battleground and I thought it would be a spiritual successor to this and LORD was I wrong😅 Hope someone somehow picks this series back up or remaster/re-release it because this is such gold!

@LuigiFan64 10 месяцев назад

They definitely did try to get some of the fighting game players for sure. A lot of fighting games came out in 2011 like Marvel vs Capcom 3, Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition, Mortal Kombat 9. A lot of big hitters. Hell, this game got a Madcatz Fight Pad AND a fight stick. What a time.

@mattb6369 10 месяцев назад

It was the last WWE game to have a Ps2 counterpart release, yep, even after Smackdown Vs. Raw 2011. It had the absolutely most EPIC hype packages for the Fantasy Warfare matches. Tapped back into the arcade days of the mid-'90s. Heck we actually had Hulk Hogan while he was at his busiest in TNA, Macho Man (WITH a promo he shot for this before passing) at a time when he and WWE didn't acknowledge each other, and even Ultimate Warrior before the road to peace with the company.

I'm so glad you covered this! All Stars is criminally underrated. So much attention to detail and fan service; I believe this is the only WWE game with 70s Andre and Macho King with his proper crown. The video packages were PPV quality, and the DLC was stellar (like Dusty and LOD). In my top 3 wrestling games of all time.

@RudeBoyKyle94 10 месяцев назад

I remember seeing early footage of the game before it was released and thinking it wasn't gonna be a good game. Once I played it however I fell in love with it and really enjoyed it. It took me a while to realize the engine is actually based on the TNA Impact engine and if I recall correctly the PSP version had some of the Impact music still in the game somehow. I still play it every so often on my 3DS, which is the ultimate version of the game as it includes all the DLC, and some characters not included on any of the console versions. If they ever made an All Stars 2 with love and affection for the original, I'd pick it up in a heart beat it was a wonderful title that was easy to figure out, and had loads of potential to do more.

@BlueMageWithSoulEdge 10 месяцев назад

To speak for the Wii: it moved at the same frame rate as PS3 and Xbox, at the cost of the graphics. It looks just a tad better than the 3DS. The reason why the game vanished was a combination of WWE not caring and the "journalist" condemning the game because it was different. It also suffered from the dreaded WWE game plan-- create promotion, sell game on all platforms for a quick buck, aggressively push DLC and kill support in a year and a half while promoting Raw/Smackdown games. That is also what happened to Battlegrounds. If this and Battlegrounds had cross-play then they both would have been bigger. The saddest fact about this game is there still haven't been a modding community to form, to at least host their own server.
