It might look as though its graphics could be rendered on a particularly sweaty sock, but Fire Pro is the very definition of "it's what's on the inside that counts".

Coming complete with a ridiculously in-depth suite of customisation options, letting you create anything from Michael Myers vs. Donald Trump to a unique title belt and ring combo named after your hometown, it's the gameplay where things get very interesting.

Rather that focus on the all-out simulation aspect of WWE 2K, Fire Pro is all about timing. Grapples only work if you tap the right buttons in the right response windows, but you've also got exhaustion and general match momentum to think about too. Taunting, looking for weapons, pulling off high-flying turnbuckle moves and considering when to drop a finisher is all paramount - especially when you dive into the New Japan Pro Wrestling-themed career mode and need to impress your contemporaries.

Learning to love its early-90s/Game Boy Advance graphics are the only hurdle standing between you and the finest arcade wrestling game money can buy.
