Then watch the close-up screen explode to twice its regular size as you grab his legs and throw him into a spine splintering suplex. See it all like it's just inches away - closer than you've ever seen it before. - 12 wrestlers and over 60 joint-wrenching moves! - Up to 4 players can compete in tag team matches AT THE SAME TIME! - Tournament, tag team, and exhibition matches for a wide variety of fun. - Different arenas, out-of-the-ring fighting, referee calls, and all the other thrills of a real wrestling match!

Additional Information

At first glance, Hammerlock Wrestling is an average wrestling title featuring 12 fictitious wrestlers, several modes of play (including four-player simultaneous), a somewhat limited number of moves (including special attacks), and a mediocre soundtrack. What sets it apart (in a bad way) is its bizarre split-screen, three-tiered presentation. The middle portion of the screen shows a side view of the ring and the wrestlers, while the top and bottom windows feature animated close-ups of the action. The animations are a cartoon-like treat, but the wrestling itself is limited by the small display.
