OK... so here's the BIGGER news. We're the largest Fire Pro community in the world. Period.

Spike and GHM realize this. They want our input, and I've been chosen as the represenative.

This forum is for everyone to post their wish lists and desires for FIRE PRO WRESLTING HD.

I have a week to pick out the 10 best ideas (or most requested) and send them to my contacts at GHM and S-Neo. Make sure you understand what is already confirmed so you don't go requesting stuff that you don't need to. If you make a stupid request, I may be forced to skip your entire post. I don't have time to waste on ridiculous ideas. This shit is SERIOUS.

 

Let's get to work.

I kinda tuned out after the word 'wrestling'... still it sounds like good news for fans of the genre. :)

My understanding is that Fire Pro is the Street Fighter 2 of the wrestling world, modern 3D wrestling games being Mortal Kombat by comparison.

 

It's not really my thing, but for fans of the series this is apparently everything they could have ever asked for. And just in case they get the opportunity to ask for stuff as well.

How does it stack up against No Mercy as that was my fave and in many peoples opinion, the best 3D wrestling game ever made.

Well fire pro is 2-D so its hard to compare. I dont think No Mercy is the best wrestling game ever anyway. Virtual Pro-Wrestling II was the better game, it had better A.I, better wrestlers, more moves and an MMA mode. Then King of Coliseaum II came out on PS2 and I regard that the best 3-D Wrestling game ever!

 

Few things about Fire Pro. It has at least 300 wrestlers in its roster so you can never really get bored with only playing with a few characters. MMA, K-1 fighters are all included. If you are new to fire-pro before you play it try and get SVR out your mind as Fire Pro is nothing like it!

 

Fire Pro for me represents Pro-Wrestling how Pro-Wrestling should be. Remember is is a japanese developed game developed by japanese wrestling fans. It does not simulate the OTT cartoon character Bullshit which you see in the WWE/TNA. You wont see a story mode with guys speaking on the mic, sneak attacks, backstage brawls, Wrestlers GF's being taken etc etc. You cannot button mash and when you first play you will get beat easily. it took me at leasr 10 matches before I understood how the timing and distance scheme works.

 

Fire Pro has so much depth its unreal. Every wrestler is rated with different stats and skill level. Height and Weight make an actual difference and every wrestler feels different! The amount of depth in each wrestler is amazing and no other wrestling games comes anywhere near it. The game has hundreds of moves and it will take you years before you see everything what the game offers.

 

It has great A.I which is not dumb! CPU vs CPU matches are great to watch!

I'm sorry to break it to you guys but this turned out to be nothing more than a huge April Fool's Joke on SonnyBone's part.
