Smackdown! WWF Smackdown enters the
wrestling game ring with plenty of features that
should bump up the testosterone levels of virtual
grappling fans. Endorsed by the granddaddy of
celebrity wrestling leagues, this game boasts an
impressive cast of over 30 World Wrestling
Foundation mega-stars, including The Rock, Stone
Cold Steve Austin, and the Undertaker. Even WWF
head honcho Vince McMahon returns to the ring,
appropriately decked out in his signature spiffy
designer suit.
Each wrestler
sports his (or her--fan-turned-wrestler Tori is a
featured character) special moves, taunts, and
finishers. And unlike some of yesterday's
wrestling games, WWF Smackdown's gameplay
is fueled by an impressive game engine, allowing
for fluid character moves, realistic lighting and
shadows, and cool effects.
The Advanced
Season mode is the star of this game, offering
all of the drama of the real deal. The action is
just as heavy off the ring as on, with
spontaneous backstage brawls heating up the
kitchen and spilling onto the loading dock. In
this game, players pick their friends, pick on
foes, and burn those who've double-crossed
them--it's all about paving a career path headed
for success. Speaking of playing it your way, the
Create-a-Superstar option allows players to
customize every detail of a character. Choose a
wrestler's appearance, custom moves and fighting
style, history--even height and weight. It all
adds up to a fast and furious virtual version of
the real thing.
