[edit] Features

After ECW Hardcore Revolution was disappointingly received due to, among other reasons, the lack of an ECW feel, Acclaim tried to compensate for this by adding many new match types. Among these are the Street Fight, Table Match, Inferno Match, Dumpster Match, Lion's Den, Hate Match, and the Team Rumble.

The game featured new control mechanics as well, but these felt very similar to the controls that had been with the series ever since WWF War Zone. Rounding out the additions is the revamped career mode. There was a Nintendo 64 version of this game but it was cancelled as the console was nearly dead.

This was the last game that was made for the ECW before its purchase by the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), but Acclaim went on to produce the Legends of Wrestling series. The current incarnation of ECW would appear in WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2008.
