Big BumpZ
As in all of MDickie's games, Big BumpZ offers a wide variety of options. You can change the appearance of your wrestler, choose the arena (performing daredevil stunts from a highrise is my favorite), the number of "dummy" opponents (to pull some wrestling stunts with), and even the number of objects in each location (which can be used to make your stunts even more convincing). The graphics is adequate and informative; I like how your character's appearance changes with the amount of injury he sustains. Keyboard-only controls take some getting used to, but once you do you will be delighted with the sheer number of moves you can pull (literally dozens of them).
I am by no means a wrestling fan, but if every wrestling game is this addictive, I will be a convert in no time. If you like masochistic games such as Truck Dismount or think wrestling games cannot be fun, Big BumpZ will be a pleasant surprise. Two thumbs up, way up!
