0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to what called your wrestling with my self-entry pull-off. |
0:03.2 | I hope you're doing well today, but today we have a review of AEW Fight Forever. |
0:09.1 | Yes, the weight is finally over. AEW Fight Forever is here. I've been playing it for the last |
0:14.8 | week or so on the PlayStation 5, and so let's see whether it's any good. |
0:20.3 | Now the gameplay, first and foremost, it's so easy to pick up. It's just kind of pick up |
0:24.9 | and play. Literally, it's easy to get to grips with the controls. It's very basic controls, |
0:28.8 | and I don't mean that in a bad way. But also, it's one of those games where it's easy to learn |
0:34.1 | the controls, but a little trickier to master, again, in a good way, because you don't want to |
0:38.3 | pick this game up and be an expert straightaway. You don't have to be a gaming pro to be able to |
0:42.4 | pick this up and just have a whole load of fun. It says an arcade filter to all of the action. |
0:47.2 | And yes, you can clearly see the influence of, say, WWEF No Mercy or the early SmackDown games. |
0:53.1 | And the action here, it's quick action. It's intergender action, which is a really nice |
0:57.9 | touch here. It's not a case of having to go to intergender matches, just any match you can have |
1:02.4 | anyone on the roster in it. And there's also, there's no rating system, so everybody has a sense |
1:07.7 | of equalness. You can beat anybody with anybody. It's all about getting momentum and then |
1:12.7 | taking down your opponent. But at the end of the day, it comes down to signature moves and |
1:16.8 | finishing moves. And one of the bits, I like a hell of a lot about Fight Forever, is that finishing |
1:21.7 | moves actually work. They do exactly the same thing. And there's an impact as well with some |
1:27.8 | and the moves. Like, for instance, Kenny Omega, the V-Trigger, that, it's like, when you hit |
1:32.8 | that, there's just a sense of brutality, the impact it makes. And then in terms of impact as well, |
1:38.3 | there's weapons, there's plenty of weapons. My personal favourite is the skateboard, which you can |
1:42.7 | then ride around on and hit people with. It's just, it's again, daft fun. And in terms of also |
