don't get me wrong, folks, I love the WWF, and Smackdown!2 should be no exception, with the updated character roster, new types of matches, etc. I just ask you to not base your purchases on the premature reviews you see before you. Wait until the game comes out, then see the reviews after that. Who knows, it may save you some money. and yes, once it is released, I myself will write a REAL review on it,(contrary to this consumer warning,) but not before. I wouldn't want to misinform anyone.

this is a really a good game better then SD1 i read some reviews of people saying that this is a bad game they are right!!
the pictures that come in the loading are good except for
debra the Kat lita etc. these pictures really spoil the child
so i recommend that this is game of those who are 14 and above.
this goes for the parents who are not taking that much care.

Parental guidence is extremely needed.

thq ought to make a game that is suitable for younger viewers

DISAPPOINTED.

Sorry -

This is only an opinion, and don't get all cranky over it. I bought this game for forty bucks after months and months of playing both WCW Mayhem and BackStage Assault for playstation, within a few days of constant playing and frustration this game was being returned to the store i bought it. while this game has great features, good graphics and endless possibilities. The play control and pulling off moves and finishers is horrible and limiting. Unless your a hardcore WWF fan i wouldn't suggest buying this if your interested in a wrestling game.

smack down 2 doesn't stay down.

Well the game is good..... lots of players....but here are some cons............ lots of them.....
1) They walk like girls.
2) The weapons dont do anything.
3) They dont bleed. After all the beatings.
4) If you fall of the top rope or the hell in the cell. They will get right back up. with out any damage.
5)The season is soooo boaring..... my cousins fell a sleep, when i was playing it.
6)Every time when micel cole interviews some one, after the interview he will srug like he has no idea of what the hell is going on.
AND I COULD GO ON.................
BUT LETS STOP..........CAUSE I AM TIERD OF TELLING THE TRUTH TO THE WORLD AND SAVING PEOPLE FROM THIS CRAP...... UR WELLCOME. :-)

This game is a nightmare

I'll admit, I havnt played many wrestling games, but I have played tons of video games, and this is the worst. I don't watch WWF, and now I see why. This game is what you would call a "button masher", there is no skill involved, all it is is mash the button to pull off a move before the computer/other player does. When fighting the computer, its always 50/50, but normally the computer will get the move off before you do. Again, there is no skill involved in this game. Every move is done with the same button, the O button makes the moves, and the directional button is the selecter for wich move you do. The X button is to punch/kick, triangle makes the guy run, but thats about it.

The worst part of this game, is the intros. Before every match, you have to watch the players intros, wich at first is pretty neat, but since each player only has one intro, after you have seen it 50 times, it gets pretty stupid, and there is no way to skip it, it comes on before EVERY match.

this game is perfect for anyone under 10 years old.

This game is the worst game ever. I can't believe THQ made this dumb game. They are good game producers but they fell apart in creating this game. As soon as I played one match of this game I took it out of the system and went outside and burned it up.
That is what I think about this horrible game.

TERRIBLE!

This is the worst game I have ever played on the Playstation. It takes way too long to load, the gameplay is slow, and the graphics are just terrible! I can knock my opponent over the head numerous times and he'll just stand there! I could hit my special until I couldn't no more and throw him off the top of the Hell In a Cell. Then I could hit all my specials again and pin him and guess what? I WOULDN'T EVEN BE ABLE TO GET A FREAKIN' ONE COUNT! Then you have to dive halfway across the wrestling ring just to get the darn championship belt in a ladder match. You can't 3-D anybody through a table either. THAT STINKS! The only ways you can drive them through a table is: Powerbomb, Piledriver, Rock Bottom, or a top rope move!!! Gosh, that really stinks! And in the Season Mode it will make you do all sorts of B.S. loading just so it can say: '(Whoever) Is here tonight'! or '(Whoever) seems satisfied with the victory'! That is downright pathetic and very exhausting! The game freezes sometimes and loads too much. DO NOT BUY THIS TRASH! Rent it, but PLEASE DON'T WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON THIS GAME! SAVE YOUR MONEY FOR SOMETHING ELSE! ...

Will someone please tell me why this is such a hot game?

All right, Lets be honest here, SD2 isn't that great. I mean, the glitchy graphics are horrible. I don't like the fact that I can't do moves onto weapons. Then I'm on the top of the Cell closelining Kane and he is suddenly behind me preforming a Death Drop DDT to me through the cage. It's just not that realistic. And of course then there's the wonderful time I have staring at a picture of Tazz while the graphics load. When it comes out on the Playstation2 it will be a lot better, for that loading time will hopefully just about vanish. But its not all bad. I like running over Undertaker in the Commissionermobile.

While the lastest and greatest wrestling game for playstation is much improved, it may be just a little too advanced for playstation, as it seems all you do is look at pictures of your favorite wrestlers while the graphics are constantly loading. Once you actually get into the matches though, the game play is pretty fun, with all the special moves of each wrestler. There is a need for commentary from the real announcers to give this game a more realistic feel. Overall a game that I can't wait to see on Playstation2, because all the loading time won't be there anymore.

Just stupid

BEWARE game fans...........IF the WWF put out ketchup, you'd see 100 people telling you it's the best ketchup ever. This is the same case.

This game is very bad. I've been playing it for a week now and I plan on trading it away today. Ironically, the same people (THQ) that put out this terrible game also put out the BEST wrestling game ever for the N64 with WWF: NO Mercy.

Let's start with the moves. There really arn't very many. All your moves are based off the "0" button which makes it very hard to effectively do the move you're trying to do. For instance, 0 once does one thing yet 0 twice does something completely different, and due to the choppy action of this game you're constantly mashing buttons.

Since I'm limited in space, I'll say my least favorite aspect of this game is the COMPLETE lack of realism for WWF fans. By this I mean that the amount of damge done to your opponent has no reflection on his recovery. It doesn't matter if you hit a piledriver or a hip toss, your opponent bounces right back up. This goes on and on till one of you hits a finisher. Then, after you hit the finisher you don't pin your opponent because they call it a KO and the match is over.

The "Hell in the Cell" was the biggest selling point of the game's commercial. It's lame. It's just a cage match with a top on it. Through your opponent into the rope, the wall falls off, and you fight on the outside. Then you climb up on top the cage. Once you're on top you can't get off untill one person is tossed off/through the cage which do to the poor control configuration is pretty hard. Then after you toss someone off the 20 ft high cage (do your own JR impression) They pop right back up and the fight continues.

The table match is just as bad. You have to whip your opponent into the ropes with the table in the way to put him on it. This is hard to do since the 0 button controls all moves and really screws things up. From there you have to dive off the top to put him through the table. Again see my point about the chacater bouncing right up after huge moves.

All in all, I thought this game was terrible. It plays like a really bad arcade fighting game. I hope you don't waste your money.
