5.0 out of 5 stars A great game, December 4, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Legends of Wrestling 2 (Video Game)

I really liked the first installment of the series, but this is a big improvement over it. The character models are more detailed. The new matches are fun (especially the Ladder match), and the controls are very easy to learn. But perhaps the best part of the game is the Career mode, which has been expanded. Now, for each of the territories in the game, you pick a storyline to follow for your character like in a slot machine. You can't go through the same storyline twice, which adds replay value. Add to that that you must beat the game with certain wrestlers in order to be able to unlock some others, and this is by far the best wrestling game out there.

5.0 out of 5 stars Suprisingly this game is really fun., March 13, 2003

This review is from: Legends of Wrestling 2 (Video Game)

My brother has an Xbox and my Dad rented this game for us to play. Needless to say I thought this game was awesome. I have a Nintendo Gamecube and my wife bought it for me cause I liked it so much. When you first play it, it might be a little awkward. That's okay though. It will take practice to learn. This is not a game where you BUTTON MASH all night long till the cows come home. To link your moves into combos or reverses it will take time. They have less match types than a WWE game, but it has better things. For one there are 3 on 3 and 4 on 4 Tag Matches. Everyone is on the screen at the same time. That is just cool. Also there is a door on the cage so you can exit out of the door on the cage match. I also like the legends in the game. Some oldschool guys from the 70's, 80's, and 90's. What is cool though is Wrestlemania X8 hardly had any moves. This one has like 16 diffrent moves from the front grapple posistion. You single press the grapple button, then you single press one of four buttons to get them in a posistion. AKA head between legs (piledrivers, Powerbombs, etc. Also a button for the scoop slam posistion where you can body slam, fall away slam. I can go on and on. This is a little diffrent kind of a game, but I really liked it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as part one, July 21, 2005

I like the fact that there are more wrestlers in the game, but King Kong Bundy is still locked and that makes me mad. Sid, Bam Bam, and Sabu are all cool wrestlers and I was glad to play them..until I had to relearn all the buttons. Why dont they stick to the controls of part 1? The blood shed in the second game seems to be minimal compared to part one, unless you play two players, then you can have more blood. You cannot really choose an arena like game one, so that sucks. Overall, its an ok game but not as good as part one.
