Rumble Roses
Rumble Roses, développé par Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo et édité par Konami, est sorti le 9 novembre 2004 sur PlayStation 2. Classé dans les genres sport et combat, ce jeu propose un système de combat de catch féminin où l'attitude, le costume et le style de la joueuse évoluent selon qu'elle lutte proprement ou salement, l'insulte et les provocations faisant partie des mécaniques disponibles. La mode histoire du jeu original suit un tournoi sur cinq jours mêlant combats d'élimination et séquences narratives, avec un combat de boue le deuxième jour et une confrontation finale contre Lady X, dont la défaite débloque un mode alternatif centré sur l'alter ego du personnage. Une partie principale est estimée à sept heures, contre dix-sept heures et demie pour une approche complétionniste, et le score agrégé du titre s'élève à 70,28.
L'accueil critique a mis en avant tant l'aspect sexuel que la qualité du gameplay : le magazine Stuff a relevé la présence d'un mode galerie permettant aux joueurs de s'approcher des personnages, tandis que GameShark a jugé la sexualité plutôt ridicule mais a noté qu'un bon jeu de catch se cachait derrière. Certains joueurs sur Metacritic ont apprécié le titre malgré des commandes jugées difficiles, quand d'autres en gardent un souvenir affectueux d'enfance sans formuler de critique de fond.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Gallery mode (aka Pants Around Ankles mode) lets sexually repressed gamers get ridiculously close to some virtual flesh. »
« Its sexuality comes off as more silly than really erotic and, if there wasn't actually a decent wrestling game under it all, it would be as disposable as yesterday's newspaper. »
« By far one of the most unusual and surprisingly satisfying wrestling games and those fighting fans that don't mind a little tease will highly enjoy this one. »
« Oh, yeah, and the ladies? They look good. Not only do they look good, their dresses, poses and mannerisms run the range of surprisingly ingenious and tasteful to downright scandalous. Got a fetish? Rumble Roses has it covered. »
« A competent show-wrestling game with sexual overtones. [Mar. 05] »
« A surprisingly fun time. And yes, the girls are pretty hot. [Jan 2005, p.125] »
« It's one of those rare games that manages to capitalize on the whole sex appeal thing without sacrificing the gameplay along with it. »
« It looks and plays very well. The big problem with Rumble Roses is the lack of depth. No real deep story mode, and really only two match types. »

« this game is a real sexual immorality and I liked it ^_^ I just didn't like the commands that are bad it's harder than the WWE one »
« (Minhas reviews são simples e diretas) Eu guardo esse jogo com muito carinho, joguei muito quando era pequeno. Eu me lembro de ver as personagens lutando e ficar louco com meus amigos rindo, a minha favorita era a japonesinha, tbm me lembro tbm de ficar com vergonha quando jogava contra meu pai kkk, Esse jogo tinha um bug muito louco que uma das personagens na roupa de biquíni ficava com o modelo do braço em formato de triangulo kk, eu vi isso a primeira vez na fase da lama, no inicio eu e meu pai falamos q era um bug maluco, e dps agnt começou a falar que era um escudo da personagem e uma mecânica do jogo kkkkk. E como não lembrar da lutadora ciborg? kkkk, mano ela era osso de vencer, que personagemzinha atentada kkk, a primeira vez q lutei com ela penei, depois eu peguei o jeito, mas quando ela usava o especial de braços de hélice não tinha escapatória, posso ta com a memória ruim, mas me lembro que quando acertava a nossa personagem ela voava pro alto e saía fumaça kk. De qualquer forma, posso ta recomendando o jogo e dando 10 pelo fator nostalgia, mas tenho certeza que se eu jogasse dnv eu iria me divertir muito, e é isso que importa pra mim, o jogo pode não ter uma história ótima como o shining force neo que eu to jogando agora, mas se ele tem pelo menos uma gameplay divertida, cara.. isso pra mim já é o bastante. »
« Good battle system, it's fun to play, and although there are few stipulations for exhibition matches, there is a story mode where each character has their own story, one of the best women's wrestling games. »
« Oh , another gem in gaming history. Not only is it a fun to play wrestling game, the female protagonists are awesome and have a fun enough backstory to be likable. Of course this game focuses on a male audience who always like to pick the female protagonist in a fighting game for their own reason. »
« One of my favorite games ever!!! I love since I was a kid. I love the story mode, the girls, and I wish this had a remake »
« This is a good game overall. The gameplay can be a little difficult at first, but it is possible to continue defeating the computer. The animations are not perfect, but graphics are decent for 2004. Some of the characters are borderline racist or sexist, I'm not sure which, but I'm not going to take this seriously. I'd rather play the sequels but I don't have an X360. This is good enough and you should pick up this game if you like fighters. »
« My guilty pleasure to play with friends. I don't play it because it's particularly good or anything; I play it because it's hilarious and the controls are somehow ridiculously fun to play if you've got a few like-minded friends. Also it makes for a great conversation starter when people walk in the room and see you maxing out an embarrassment meter while you're playing a busty teacher and your friend is playing a nasty Brazilian nurse. »
