TNA iMPACT! is a wrestling game based on the weekly television show of the same name. The game features 25 TNA stars, including Kurt Angle, Jeff Jarrett, Rhino, Samoa Joe, AJ Styles, Sting, and Christian Cage.
The gameplay focuses on fast-paced action with multiple match types, such as Standard, Tag Team, Free For All, Ultimate X, Submission, Handicap, and Falls Count Anywhere. Players can also compete against friends at home or online.
One of the unique features of TNA iMPACT! is its story mode, where players create their own TNA wrestler with customizable costumes and move sets to uncover the back-story of a former champion wrestler.
The game was released for the PlayStation 2 in September 2008, offering an arcade-style wrestling experience. Unfortunately, due to limitations of the PS2, some features such as create-a-wrestler and online functions are not available.

Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
This is a wrestling-themed action-adventure game where players embody a former champion, brutally attacked and left for dead, who returns to the ring to uncover the truth behind his assault and reclaim his past.
Story
Suicide's Story
Suicide was a feared and talented wrestler, unbeaten and a fan favorite. His dream of becoming World Champion was within reach.
However, a non-negotiable threat from two thugs altered his destiny. Instead of bowing to their demands and throwing the title match, Suicide defiantly claimed his victory.
His triumph was short-lived. Following his match, he was brutally beaten and left for dead in the street.
Days later, Suicide awoke in unfamiliar surroundings. Bandaged from head to toe and unable to remember his own name, he faced a long road to recovery.
After major reconstructive surgery and intensive rehabilitation, he returned to the wrestling circuit, where his quest for answers began.

ROPESPRING ATTACKS
At running speed, use the ropes to sprung forward from inside the ring (or from the Apron on the edge of the ring) and launch toward an opponent to inflict bonus damage.
ULTIMATE X
Stun or toss your opponents from the ring to buy time, then climb up to the ropes suspended over the ring. Without this extra time, it will prove difficult to unlatch the X.
