WWE Games

Professional wrestling, in some form or another, has been around for a very long time. As of 2011, World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) was the leading organization. The WWE's marketing wing recognized early that game tie-ins could only help the product. Most of them are video games featuring animated versions of the company's trademarked "superstars."

WWE All-Stars
- "WWE All-Stars' was released in March of 2011 just ahead of the company's major annual promotion, Wrestlemania. It is available on the PlayStation, Xbox and Wii. While the company had previously released a game featuring its old and sometimes late stars, this was the first title to make legends playable characters alongside its current stars. Players could compete as 2011 standouts like John Cena and the Miz, or as old-timers like Andre the Giant, Randy "The Macho Man" Savage and The Ultimate Warrior.
Raw Vs Smackdown
- The "Raw Vs Smackdown" series plays up the two "brands" of the WWE. The "Raw" show on Monday night has one set of superstars while the "Smackdown" show on Fridays as another. The series, which began in 2004, pits the rosters against one another. Some of them, including the 2011 version, had a "Road To Wrestlemania" mode. The player had to take one wrestler through a series of matches and storylines to get to the main event.
Out Think the Fink
- This is an online trivia game available on the WWE's official website, WWE.com. Players must select a difficulty level and then answer wrestling questions until the timer expires. One sample question: "Who was the gossip columnist who tried to dig up dirt at "Wrestlemania VI?" The correct answer is Rona Barrett. The "Fink" of the title is derived from the nickname of Howard "The Fink" Finkel, a long-time WWE ring announcer.
Which Superstar
- This game on WWE.com asks certain questions to determine what WWE superstar you most resemble. Some of the questions center around your fashion sense, ideal vacation spots, your idea of the perfect mate and your favorite toys from childhood. At the end of the series of questions, the game will reveal which WWE wrestler you resemble and a description of your ring character.
DVD Board Game
- The "WWE DVD Board Game" from 2005 emphasized mind over muscle. The player takes on the part of a manager on either "Raw" or "Smackdown." The goal is the have your wrestlers win all of the championships belts while you become the general manager of both shows. The game is suitable for players age 10 and up.
