Wrestling and video-games go hand in hand. Both feature larger than life characters and unreal action, and both have scores of avid fans who spend hours compulsively watching and playing them.

The WWE has a long history with video games spanning back three decades. Naturally, not all of these games are as good as some of the others, and for every WWF No Mercy, fans have had to put up with a WWE Crush Hour.

At its core, wrestling is nothing more than a circus attraction. A collection of super-human like characters hitting each other with over the top moves in the name of entertainment. It's big, it's silly, and it's a whole load of fun.

Few video games have managed to tap into that the way WWE All Stars did. The game featured super-size versions of wrestlers who hit ridiculous, gravity-defying and impactful moves on one another. What more could you ask for?

The game's roster was also a who's who of wrestling history, allowing fans to play out various fantasy matches with each other. The whole thing plays out like a modern arcade game.

It's big, it's silly, and it's a whole load of fun, which is exactly what wrestling should be.
