its a cool game but its not |
| A gamer from USA says (6/Feb/2003): |
the reason I gave it an 8 is because there are some really sucky stuff on it! like u cant hang out on ringside where RVD or Jeff Hardy or a created Wrestler can jump on the rope and tackle him or her or whatever another thing is in story mode it sucks big time im only on year 3 and theres nothing else 2 really do.

all ur reviews...sux or rules |
| A gamer from USA says (22/Dec/2002): |
yo this game is the best except for 1 thing they dont have all the wrestlers like my favourite GOLDBERG who could win a match in like 1 minute in real life. Also most of these wrestlers are from last time WCW (world championship wrestling) GOLDBERG, STING, SCOTT STEINER, BIG SHOW (used to be GIANT) HOLLYWOOD HULK HOGAN AND JEFF JERRETT. Well over all this game is the best.

THIS GAME IS ONE OF THE BEST ON THE PLAYSTATION!! |
| Mark from Melbourne, Australia says (14/Dec/2002): |
This game is sick! It's so cool how you can get the entrance music and videos. I've got WCW/NWO Revenge on N64 and smackdown 2 kicks its ass! not because of the graphics. No playstation game has better graphics than any N64 game. But the reason this game is better is the actual gameplay. Its really easy to use and is awesome how u can rock bottom wrestlers through the announce tables etc. There are a couple of reasons i gave it 9 and not 10. One is the amount of loading time. That is the most annoying thing about all psone games a long with the graphics compared to the 64. But the loading time is way to long in SD2 and i think u should be able to turn off the storyline scenes or at least they should have less. The other annoying thing about this game is that you cant do a 3D through a table and also u cant have a tag-team TLC match. Since when do they have single TLC matches? All in all its a fantastic game and the graphics are surprisingly alright compared to other playstation games. Plz email ur thoughts of my review.

WWF SmackDown 2 is the best game ever |
| Jay-Z from Canada says (3/Dec/2002): |
The graphics are the best, and the matches and season, the best. I don't know how they made such a great game. The wrestlers look so real, especially Trish Stratus. The moves, the entrances, the CAW option. Everthing is the best. How did they get such a big amount of stuff, into such a small package. I would recommend this game to eveyone, even people who don't like wrestling. It's defineitely worth buying. I spend hours making playing the game with my friends, and creating wrestlers, taunts, stables, and managers. I can even add myself to my favorite stable, or create a dream stable. My favorite wrestler can be my manager. That's why Trish is my manager. The Create a PPV thing is awesome. I can make my favorite matches happen before my eyes. Like the Hell in a Cell match between The Undertaker and Mick Foley. I don't even have to play, I can let the computers do it. You can also gradually grow with the game. You can make it easy, medium, or hard. Even the medium is challenging. WWF SmackDown 2 is my favorite game, and I never stop playing it. I have like 30 other games, and I never play them. This game is really addicting, and well just buy WWf SmackDown 2. You won't regret it, I promise. You can also unlock movesets from season, and create wrestlers that aren't even on the game, like the Big Show, Scott Steiner, Ric Flair, and many more.

OK Game |
| Zach Hehl from Kettering Ohio says (2/Dec/2002): |
The game is pretty good but it is unrealistic for incteance if u throw someone off the hell in a cell they get write back up. And stupid scense in season mode like when it says the rock is here who cares. And if u skip a match u have to wait for some gay health bars to go away. Other than that it is a preety good game

RVD says this game is aswom but smackdown shut your mouth rocks |
| Rob Van Dam from Waterloo Iowa USA says (30/Nov/2002): |
Smackdown is good smackdown2 is better , but smackdown shut your mouth is the best. Anyways Smackdown 2 has good gameplay graphics .... the only problems this game has is that it takes 2 long to load and it doesnt need all those scenes in season mode.
After playing for 5 years in season mode u unlock all the moves, ans some anvance and standard parts for CAW. I Crated a perfect exect loook of RVD and is was able to give him all the moves he uses in the ring eveng rolling tunder (with help of a created taunt)And feal free to IM me for codes and hints.

Almost perfect |
| Heather from Birmingham, AL says (29/Nov/2002): |
I would have given it a 10 if it had not been for two things... In season mode you have to sit and wait while it determines who wins or loses. They have a health bar under the picture of the wrestler. It's not like Smackdown 1 where it just shows winner and loser. Also the loading times and the pictures they show while it's loading. You get really sick looking at the same pictures over and over again. Other than that, it's great. I highly recommend it for anyone who likes wrestling games. For graphics I give it a 8. Sound = 5. That music gets really annoying after a while. Gameplay = 9. Fun = 10.

SMACKDOWN SMACKDOWN !!! Well NoT BaD ;) |
| RaVi DSouza from Bombay, India says (5/Nov/2002): |
I think that Smackdown 2 is a kinda good game if you play it on exhibition mode. The CAW Mode is simply fantastic and i came up with the CAW of my whole Family :P
Well, now let me get onto the point. I think that The season mode absolutely sucks in the later part of the Game. You have to simply wait for PPVS after PPVS just to get a title shot and then thatll be the only championship match for the PPV. Then, everything is so absurd that the title is defended once in a blue moon. When you use the Create a Season Mode, the only arena u can play in is the Smackdown Arena. And, you dont get to view the rankings in there, you have to go all to the main screen whcih takes years to load. At a time nly 4 wrestlers can be on screen, it wud be better if it were 6. Well, as far as the graphics goes, Hats of to Smackdown 2. The Entrance Videos and Music are Great and the finishers and moves are superb.
If you're a Wrestling Fan , go for it Else i Have two words For Ya... 'SUCK IT'

o.k if your bored |
| jorden irwin from england bedford says (27/Oct/2002): |
The matches could be a lot harder i used 1 special and i knocked undertaker out and my special strength was 3 bars. The graphics could be a lot better, they are hardly good. There could be a bigger selection of matches. The cut scenes in a season are a big waste of time. I dont have a challenge in TLC and ladder matches the computers dont even use a strong move before climbing the ladder so i get up, climb the turnbuckle and whup the computers ass. I cant do a 3-D through a table, the table just moves away. I put a lot of effort into making a charachter that looked like me an the closest i could get looked nothing like me! the moves could have been a lot more realistic, when you do a stone cold stunner you would'nt bounce halfway across the ring. And when you have been specialed or missile dropkicked in the face you would definately not get straight back up!the loading takes way to long. And what happend to undertakers real music, i hate the crappy music he shouldnt have rollin is way better. And what happend to the blood. And you cant hit someone in mid air and they fall over.

It's all good..... well nearly.... |
| Matt Reid from West Midlands, UK says (3/Oct/2002): |
OK. If you haven't already got this game what the hell are you playing at?!?!! This game is a great improvement on Smackdown1, which still used the WWF Attitude engine. The graphics are a lot smoother, the moves are both more plentyfull and easier to perform and, with the Season mode, you can just keep on playing and playing and playing! Now the bad points.... load times are a bit long and frequent, and its quite iritating that you can only go for one belt at a time. And why, for the love of dog, why can't you turn off the cut scenes on Season mode!!??! To sum up, this is a fantastic game, with a few flaws, but these are far outweighed by the fact that you won't find a more playable westling game on the PSone.

Hardyz maniac gives thumbs up |
| Know Your Role from NSW Australia says (3/Oct/2002): |
Its a great game, from the wrestling to the story line, but the only thing wrong with it is that after you've played it 100 times per day it slowly becomes (little by little) a bit boring. other than that its absolutely great (maybe not as good as JBI but that is for PSII).

| ryan from united kingdom says (22/Sep/2002): |
I think this is the best wrestling game ever it has goodish graphics very fun because you can unlock things from cactus jack to t.lc from t.l.c, to new move sets it is so good i play it every day at least 3 hours a day and i go on it most days i only had it for a few weaks and it didnt cost much it has loads of matches from single 1 on 1 to tag team table match ive stopped playing on other games im wanting to finish story mode hey you can also make teams up like the american baddasses (kane & undertaker) billion air trio (stephany mcmahon triple H & kurt angle) thats all ive got to say bye every one hope you enjoyed my review

the rock says |
| the rock says from une, india says (18/Sep/2002): |
this game is really good cause it does not deal with health of wrestlers. also we can give secial moves.the rock says u have to be crazy not to like this. the rock rates this game as 8 instead of 9 or 10 cause of the loading time taken in royal rumble. also there are a few flaws. like we cannot pin our opponent on the cage in hell-in-a-cell match and in tag team table match we only have to eliminate 1 opponent when it should be both. we should be able to select the wrestlers we want in royal rumble and KOR. STILL IT IS GOOD

Almost A Legend but not quite... |
| Anderz from Mansfield,England says (21/Aug/2002): |
I am someone who brought Know Your Role through the fact that I am a big wrestling fan and that I feel THQ have done a great job with Smackdown 1. People may say that Smackdown 2 is just an updated version of Smackdown but I feel that through all the improvements it is a much better game. I feel the large selection of superstars makes this game fun (I am a bit dissapointed by the none appearence of the Big Show). The Exibition Mode is far better with a larger selection of matches and the fact that you can have title matches makes it more exciting. I feel that Season Mode was improved by the fact that there are many more matches and many more shows for the die-hard fan but the Rankings system has not been improved from Smackdown. I find Create Mode is fantastically fun with the exception of the minority of detail in the Create-A-Superstar Appearence Mode. The main point that makes me rate this game 8 instead of 9 or 10 is the loading time. I accept the fact that the game has a lot of detail in it and that causes it to take longer to load and occaisionally stall, but I find that saving frequently helps by when the game stalls you don't lose all your hard work in this long, fantastically storied Season Mode. All in all I would by the Platinum Version if I hadn't already got the original. So by the game if you like the sound of it.

Smackdown 2 rocks |
| Shawn W.K. from The World says (8/Aug/2002): |
The only problem is it takes too long to load. Its really cool because it features all types of matchs like "hell in a cell","tlc" and "ladder match".The story mode kicks ass and it has better charecter entrences than the orginal Smackdown.This is a big improvement over Smackdown 1 so buy it.

This Game Sucks |
| The Titan from Pitsburg, USA says (3/Aug/2002): |
This is the worst game on PlayStation. It takes to long to load, the gameplay is to slow, the graphics suck. I mean damn. I can knock somw dude upiside the head 20 times and he would just stand there. I could hit my special until I couldn't know more in a Hell In A Cell, I could put him throught the top, and through both tables. Then hit all of my specials again. Then try to pin him, and not even get a one count. And then you have to dive half-way across the $#< remove me > at !ing ring to get to the belt in a ladder match. You can't 3-D somevody through a table. Hell the only ways you can put them through a table is, Powerbomb, Piledriver, Rock Bottom, or a top rope move, that sucks. And in season mode it will make you do all sorts of loading just so it can say: (Whoever) Is here tonight! That is obsurd. And then when Stone Cold blows up the DX express it is so fake! Plus the game alway freezes up. I would advise everbody not to buy this game.

Good for a while but gets boring... |
| Taylor Jones from Grants Pass, Orgeon, USA says (31/Jul/2002): |
WWF smackdown 2 was the first high-tech wrestling game I've seen. Sure, Warzone was fun, and attitude was great but isn't it time to tech up a bit? Starting with the good parts of the game, the exhibition modes. From TLC to Table, from tag, to hardcore this game has it all! You can have hours of fun just coming up with your own story lines, playing matches, winning belts. Next onto graphics, the playstations 2-D world is getting far behind with the addition of Playstation 2 and X-box, sure it's fun but it's not interactive! The gameplay can get very boring after a while, when you have played all the matches. This game's season mode is the first of it's kind. The cutscenes in the game are amazing and somehow after attacking the peoples' champ, going to the APA, and becoming the Undisputed Champion, it's just not enough! The create modes are tons of fun especially CAW and CAS modes! There are hundreds of moves to choose from and shaping, your new juggernaut into the next champ can take a lot of work. But all in all the exhibition is still the funnest, my favorite match is definetly TLC (As if you didn't know, table, ladder,chair.) Rating this game is hard but it has it's ups and downs. It's one of those games that is fun when you get it and boring after a week.

Hands Down, The Best Game I've Played Is Smackdown 2 |
| Steven Lauzon from Woonsocket, Rhode Island, USA says (5/Jun/2002): |
It Is Simply The Best Wrestling Game Ever! The way the game was made was brilliant, i mean, you can make up to ten of your own players with any accessories you may think of, the graphics are also very relistic, (for a playstation) and you can go all over different areas besides just the ring which is quite the original idea, i also thing it is cool how you can bring old legends back to life by using the body parts you can unlock in season mode along with any other item or character you can unlock. I play this game quite often with my friends and it is just as if not more exciting than the time before, because it seems as if you can do something new every time

WWF Smackdown2: Better than the first but could it be better? |
| Michael from Cleveland, Ohio says (4/Jun/2002): |
Hey there true believers and newcomers alike. Let'start with the graphics shall we.
Good: Alot smoother than Smackdown 1 with some better shading. Alot bettter cut scenes and after match antics. Faces that actually look like there namesake.
Bad: Still some herky jerky motions when a supetstar is attacked backstage after winning a match. Some of the superstars sill look a little blocky. Music: In general good till the first hour of play is over then it's just annoying. I recommend turning music off and playing your favorite CD. Gameplay Good: It's awesome! With an enormous arsenal that even has moves that are from some of your fave superstars that aren'there for the game. Create a player heaven!
