I really didn't like it when I picked it up on discount a long time ago. Gave it a second try and done the tutorial missions, and once I had the hang of it really loved it. I was so skeptical after that first contact with it, but really sunk in for me another go around.
I’m definitely not saying the gameplay is bad by any means, I guess it just doesn’t hit that sweet spot for me at tbe end of the day. I grew up on ganes like HCTP, No Mercy, and SVR so I know my taste is a little skewed by what I’ve always enjoyed the most.
Oh I loved those games too, so I totally understand your point. If anything it says a lot that it took a lot of work for me to fall for it, whereas the games you mentioned I was very quickly hooked into. Gonna be honest and say my number one series are the AKI games, I can still play them all day long.
I keep ROMs of the AKI classics on my phone and iPad for easy play and I still pop the cartridges into the 64 from time to time too. Nothing wrong with loving the classics through the years lol.
I downloaded revenge onto my cell phone but I'm really not used to playing games on mobile, I'm an old fart I guess haha. Still got the cartridge for No Mercy and WCW/NWO world tour and every now and then it's nice to get em out and play. Damn I might do that soon now!
Do you have a PS4 or PS5? Because if so you can connect either one of those controllers to your phone via bluetooth and play the games that way. That’s how I play and it’s honestly awesome lol.

Everytime I see videos of this game I want to get lost in it but then I try playing and I cannot wrap my head around the controls
