First of all, this game is much better than stated in previous reviews. The graphics are not that bad, the playability is solid, and the selection of wrestlers is amazing. I was a huge wrestling fan in the early to mid 80's...Andre the Giant, George the Animal Steele, Mil Mascaras, Ivan Koloff, One Man Gang, etc.. This game has them all and many more. Yes Andre being choke slammed by Ricky Steamboat is unrealistic, but it is just a game. Younger wrestling fans may not appreciate this game, but for those who grew up watching wrestling in the 80's...this game is for you.
Bad execution

Legends of Wrestling relies heavily on the player being excited to use the old wrestlers and hopes you don't mind poor game play and limited options.
Game play weaknesses:
You can't freakin tag in your partner.
Andre the Giant should not be doing drop kicks.
It's not worth spending the time to unlock all the wrestlers, you're bored before you get to use 'em.
Any game that requires you to tap repeatedly on one button for a long time sucks.
Limiting the skills a created wrestler can have sucks.
The Best Wrestling Game.

I have been renting L.O.W. II for about two weeks now and have come up with an overview of the game.1) the matches are ok but the cage match is not as good for 1 reason. you cannot escape from the top of the cage. 2) if you consider the name LEGENDS of wrestling II, the first person to come to your mind would probably not be eddie gurerro,or scott steiner.3) the game itself is fun aside from the fact that it allows anyone to do anything. for example, do you really think that eddie gurerro would be able to chokeslam andre the giant?4) the create-a-legend is so-so, but i will you look at other peoples ratings to figure out what is wrong with it. aside from all of this, the game is very entertaining and will provide many weekends of enjoyment!

1. I'm a huge wrestling fan. 2. I hate this game. The graphics are bad. The moves are the same for every player. I don't get how to do specials. The campaign mode and the amount of players are the only good parts. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME! DON'T EVEN RENT IT! That's all I can say.
okay for little kids

first of all, i got the game on discount for $2 at Toys R'Us and was kind of excited because it had my favorite wrestler of all time, British Bulldog.
but what they don't tell you is that Bulldog and about a dozen or so other wrestlers are locked, which sucks.
secondly, the game gets real old real fast. it's not like boxing games, which are all different, here, some wrestlers have one type of attack mode, like one guy will only kick and that's it.
the game gets real old with that. also, even on easy mode, it's freaking hard. you'll have a guy and you're whopping him, and then he hits you once, and your stunned and have to press the X button to come back. my whole hand and thumb were hurting after playing.
i was getting so mad that i actually traded the game away. i didn't even have the game for 24 hours, that's how much i hated the game and how much it bothered me.
the best thing and the only awsome thing about it was the ring intros, i wish Fight Night would take a look at the ring intros here for their boxing game.
anyway, for little kids, it's okay. but for older kids of wrestling, the game isn't that good. i've played better wrestling games.
good wrestling game

Legends of wrestling 2 is more for the old school wrestling fans. Alot of people won't recognize half of the names on LOW2's roster.There are 65 different wrestlers to unlock and acquire. The game has an excellent career mode with different promoters from diffenent regions of the country, old wrestling fans will appreciate this throwback to days of old. One think i do have is a problem with the difficulty, its weird, in that you don't know how much or less the difficulty will adjust with the setting you put it on, some wrestlers that shouldn't be able to beat you, beat you, and visa versa. But all in all this is a good wrestling game for old and new wrestling fans.
good but not that good

Good Stuff:New wrestlers: Rowdy Roody Piper, Sid Vicous, Owen Hart, Paul Ordoruff, British Bulldog, Bruno Sammortino, Killer Kowsky, and others
:Extra Stuff
- Wrestler proflies & interviews
Also: Songs by alternitive metal bands like saliva
Bad Stuff:Poor Graphics
-For the love of god improve the graphics, it's like the last one
Sound: No color commentary
Season Mode: Same as the last, you can pick a storyline but the pick thing goes to fast
Also: In order to unlock arenas and pro wrestlers your gonna have to use money and in order to get red & blue coins your gonna have to gamble and lose green coins.
a good renter but that's about it

overall the game is very average. i'd have a very hard time ever justifying fifty bucks on a Wrestling game. there are a lot of characters to choose from, even when you first turn it on. there's a decent control-a-wrestler which is fun to make a obesely hideous bad-dressed wrestler with a funny name. i would imagine it could be more fun if you had four friends together beating the tar out of each other. but to me, these wrestling/ fighting games get stale and repetitive after about a week. i'd say legends of wrestling II would make a good renter, but would be a poor use of your fifty dollars.
