My review for WWE: Day of Reckoning 2
“Who’s the king of Thuganomics, Word Life!”
Title: Day of Reckoning 2
Platform: Gamecube
My Rating: 9.3/10
Gameplay:
The game features story mode and versus mode as well as a shopping zone where you can edit your created wrestler. You are also allowed to create a character in Create-a-Wrestler mode either a girl or guy. Sadly, you can only use a male wrestler in story mode so making a girl wrestler is pretty useless.
Sound:
The music added in the fighting really goes along with what is happening. If you are on heat, they’ll be a rushed up version of the music to go along with the rage your character is in. Otherwise, it would help if they put real songs in the fights than just a beat.
Graphics:
The characters have been modified to take advantage of the gamecube’s graphics. The wrestler’s bodies are more detailed now than in the first Day of Reckoning. Girls would probably play this game just to look at the guy’s bod.
Maneuvering:
It is very easy to maneuver the wresters and to make them use punching and kicking attacks. The only problem that I have for the game is that sometimes I’d do a running clothesline and miss because the computer would say I was too far away even if my opponent was right in front of me.
Entertaining:
This game is very entertaining and worth at least 6 hours of gameplay. If you have no clue about wrestling or the wrestlers, than this game won’t grab your attention.
