LEGENDS OF WRESTLING 2 REVIEW

by KEVIN R

Well, first, if you're a fan of old school wrestling like I am, there's plenty of wrestlers in this game that'll keep you satisfied. You can fight in a latter match, cage match, tag match, and 4 man and 6 man tag matches. The graphics are decent, though the moves are really hard to execute and each wrestler only has about 8 different moves to him. If you're like me though, you'll skip to unlocking Andy Kaufman so you can use him to wrestle women and of course Jerry The King Lawler. (payback's a you know what!)

The character looks identicle to Andy. The hair, the wide eyes, the facial expressions. The only thing, which is slightly humorous to me is that they gave Andy muscles. Being that Andy even admitted he was too small to wrestle men and just the right size to take on a woman, I thought it was pretty funny. In the game, when Andy comes down to the ring, he has the yellow "Intergender Champion Of The World" t-shirt on and points to his head alot, as to say "I'm from Hollywood! I've got the brains!". Then when he gets in the ring he has the standard wrestling gear he used on stage to wrestle women. The white shirt and pants, shorts over them. Nicely done.

The only downfall is that in order to wrestle as Andy, you have to choose the career mode, pick Jerry Lawler then go through several matches until you get to Andy, beat him and only after that you can wrestle as Andy. I hope whoever purchases this just to wrestle as Andy is a patient person because it's a pain in the neck (no pun intended). But still, it's worth the wait to control Andy and be him as you wrestle women and such.

All in all, the game is decent and they did Kaufman justice! It's great that they recognized him as a legend of the ring, but hopefully in "Legends Of Wrestling 3", they'll make him a regular choosable character.
