Attitude is the second Acclaim game in the quadrilogy of their 3D PS1-N64 era pro wrestling titles.

It's an improvement to War Zone, the roster is larger and a lot less out of date, the wrestlers talk a bit more during the match (it's great) and there's a bunch more customization. This game actually probably had the most customization out of any wrestling game I experienced back in the day. You can even create your own arena, it's not as detailed obviously as the modern 2K games but you can wrestle a match at a PPV with purple lighting and gold ring ropes if you want. You can also edit your match to a pretty impressive degree. Want to wrestle a fatal four-way err... excuse me "war" match with iron man and last man standing rules? Go for it.

Interestingly there were supposed to be a bunch of fictional jobbers you'd be able to beat up at the beginning of the career mode. This is why there's a lot of generic voices and entrance themes available in the CAW mode.

The game still plays like crap compared to WCW/nWo Revenge and WWF would actually start getting AKI developed titles on the N64 not long after this released, but I think these games are still mildly entertaining to boot up once in a while in small doses. I wish more games provided weapons with the audience throwing CRT TVs into the ring.
