ECW Hardcore Revolution is a professional wrestling video game released by Acclaim Entertainment, based on the professional wrestling promotion Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW). The game was released for the Nintendo 64, PlayStation, Dreamcast and Game Boy Color. It was the first wrestling game to be based on ECW, as well as the first professional wrestling game to receive a Mature rating from the ESRB but rated Everyone on the Game Boy Color. The game was criticized for being a near copy of its predecessor, WWF Attitude and not reflecting ECW's unique style, just covering over everything with ECW wrestlers and themes.[3] Acclaim followed this title with the release of a sequel, ECW Anarchy Rulz, six months after this game was released.

It has a rating of 47% at Rotten Tomatoes. Critics praised Joey Styles's commentary, and the use of weapons during the game. However, most reviews were negative. Metacritic gave Hardcore Revolution 45 out of 100 reviews positive. IGN gave the game a mere 3/10. Gamespot was the worst reviewer, and gave the game a 2/10, making this one of its worst-rated games.
