WWF SmackDown! 2: Know Your Role

200081/100
Sport
The late-90s/early-2000s wrestling boom is perfectly captured in the chaotic, button-mashing energy of SmackDown! 2. Its robust Create-a-Wrestler mode and the sheer number of match types provided a level of customization that few wrestling games have matched since. While the grappling system was simple, the focus on over-the-top character animations and the ability to hurl your opponent into the crowd made for an endlessly replayable party game.
