'''''Total Extreme Wrestling''''' is a series of [[Simulation Games|simulation computer games]] based off of [[Professional Wrestling]]. It was started in 1995 by British-programmer Adam Ryland initially as a card game but quickly became a computer program due to the complex rules and long setup required. It was initially called ''Extreme Warfare''.
The series gained a bit of popularity when ''Extreme Warfare Deluxe'' was released, but gained an even higher level of fame when ''Extreme Warfare Revenge'' was released in 2002.
Line 6:
The series jumped from freeware to a professional product in 2004 when the first ''Total Etxreme Warfare'' was released. The series soon changed its name to ''Total Extreme Wrestling''.
* ''Extreme Warfare'': The initial release of the series and reportedly very basic compared to what the series would become. Nine different versions were released. [[Keep Circulating the Tapes|Somewhat difficult to find...]]
Line 13:
* ''Total Extreme Wrestling'': Released via .400 Software for the 2004 version and with Greydog Software for 2005, 2007, 2008 and 2010. Greatly enhances the game from ''Revenge'', adding in more realistic development territories and more micromanagement when it comes to event times. 2005 was eventually made freeware to promote ''TEW 2008'' and other games made by Ryland.
