Review:
Gameplay: - Score - 5 The gameplay in Legends of Wrestling goes real slow. Everytime you try to to a taunt, the game freezes, as if it needs to load a taunt. Also the sloppy control is hard too. At most times it is hard to pull off moves. Also the crappy game guide doesn't help at all. Acclaim should have taken tips from THQ's Smackdown! series, to get some tips on gameplay. Smackdown! isn't slow, but it doesn't go so fast either. With the slow gameplay, the score stands at 5.
Graphics: - Score - 5 The wrestlers look in this game are like cartoonish characters. Well it's something new, so I won't blame Acclaim for trying out something new. But the crowd is horrible. If you look around, they are basically same patterned people used over and over. Which brings down the game's good wrestler cartoonish models. LOW doesn't isn't fareing to well right now isn't it?
Sound: - Score - 5 From the start of the game, the entrance video is awesome playing some song about wanting to be a legend. Other that, the sound sucks throughout the game. And the so promised authenic/interactive entrances aren't in. Acclaim dissappointed us when it came to entrance music. The only reason why it gets a five is because of the intro. video, when you turn on the game.
Value: - Score - 7 Well it is Legends Of Wrestling, so it is of value. But with the sloppy control, lack of matches, and lousy music, this game is worth a rental at best. The ladder matches, scaffold matches, and barb wire matches that were promised in this game, didn't even get in. The only thing you are treated to is a one-on-one, tag team, special referee, handicap, 3 way dance, & 4 way dance matches. Also with career mode & create a legend. Acclaim should've put more thought into this game. In a way the false advertised this game saying they would have all these gimmick matches. The entrances are not as good either. Nonetheless, it is Legends Of Wrestling, so it is of some value. But this game is still a rental at best.
Overall: - Score - 5.3
