10 Insanely Underrated Wrestling Video Games You Must Play

10. WWE All Stars (2011) - Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, PSP, Wii, 3DS

Released in 2011, All Stars has become the poster boy of underrated wrestling games, and rightfully so.

The game takes its outrageous appearance and runs with it, showcasing the superstars in a ridiculously humongous size in an over-the-top, arcade-style fighter, performing their usual moves, but adding 'flair' if you will.

When Triple H goes for a Pedigree, after hooking their arms, he proceeds to jump fifteen feet in the air to slam their face down onto the mat. Others add tornado-like twirls to their finisher, like the chokeslam for example: by the throat, jumping and spinning in the air before smashing back down.

It's quite a sight.

Along with the gameplay are two interesting modes: Path of Champions and Fantasy Warfare.

Path of Champions has players compete in a series of matches to fight the previously picked superstar/s: Randy Orton, The Undertaker or D-Generation-X. Fantasy Warfare pits a legend vs a current superstar ('current' circa 2011, of course) with a similar character or even opposing character, like Stone Cold vs CM Punk.

All Stars is complete, outlandish fun with a good roster of superstars to choose from and compete with in the modes mentioned above. It's just a shame we never saw a sequel.
