Customer Reviews

The Daddy of Wrestling
This game is the "Big Daddy" of Wrestling.

With the new addition of 4 classic british fighters (i.e Big Daddy, Kendo Nagasaki, Giant Haystacks and Mick McManus) this game rocks.

It will take a few goes to get the hang of and isn't as instantly as playable as WWF. But, give it a few goes and you will think it is as good or maybe even better!

Easy, Easy, Easy....

Legends of Wrestling (very nearly 4 stars)
Pick any wrestler that you can remember who appeared on kiddies' lunchboxes in the 90's and they're in this game; containg such wrestlers as, Hulk Hogan, Andre The Giant and the Legion of Doom.

There is a great wrestling retrospective about this game, but it is not the greatest game ever to step in the ring. There's a wealth of wrestlers, but not a great amount of moves. Most fighters share pretty similam grappling moves, twist-your-arm submission holds and finishers.

Reasons for buying it:
-Wrestling nostalgia
-Dozens of prize fighters
-Big Daddy vs WWE!

Reasons for leaving it:
-Slows down with several players
-Better wrestling games available
-Characters look plastic!

Graphics/visuals: 2D crowd and action-figure characters.
-7.5/10

Sound: Original entrance music and rock music, which isn't bad.
-7.4/10

Gameplay: Cage, ladder and blood action.
-6.5/10

Life Span: Lots of wrestlers and plenty of places to take 'em.
-7.6/10

Overall Score and thoughts:

I give this game: 6.4/10 (64%)
---Nostalgia aside, there are better wrestling games out there. WWE SmackDown! Shut your Mouth is another option.

Better but not that good.
LOW 2 is definately a lot better than the dissapointing Legends Of Wrestling. It still lacks alot but if you really liked the first (which isn't likely) you'll love this. Look out for Legends Of Wrestling: Shodown in April 04 which should be a great improvement.
