    What could have given other wrestling games a run for their money ends up winded before the ring bell even sounds. [Jan 2011, p.66]

    Fans of Lucha Libre might enjoy seeing their favorite fighters in action, but even the most dedicated aficionado will find the turgid gameplay disappointing.

    Unfortunately, the only thing hiding under this particular luchadore's mask is a truly mediocre game.

    This game means well -- It really does. It's just not any good.

    Lucha Libre AAA: Heroes Del Ring is a poor attempt at introducing this branch of the sport to the masses and should be avoided at all costs.

It does have some flaws, but with really cool features like Creating your own mask (there are a million options), the story player mode where I learned a ton about the sport and it has cool vids, and the online mode of Mask vs. Hair (when you play and win, you rip the mask off your opponent and get to keep it in your trophies), this game is fun and easy to pick-up and enjoy.

They can make it palatable to Americans, but something else will result, and it will not be a lucha libre video game anymore. You cannot Americanize Lucha Libre, because then it looses it's cultural value, the largest obstacle in this game being the language barrier, some things just don't translate form Spanish very well...so it would have been better to just adapt it to English and had English commentators do the talking just like they do for WWE. I would imagine subtitles don't help much either, nevertheless I can say native Spanish speakers do not have as much trouble understanding the game. Anyway, if they ever make a second game, it's probably going to be better than this one...but then again every single video game out there is meant for Americans.… Full Review »
