The 1st is better. Avoid this one...

I'm a pretty big fan of wrestling games & next to N64's NO MERCY I can say that the 1st DAY OF RECKONING is the best grappler game I've ever played. That's why when I heard they were making a follow up I was very stoked only to be very disappointed after playing it.

Sequels for games are suppose to be better than the originals (fixing past bugs, improving graphics, etc)...this is not the case for DOR2. They changed the grappling system, the collision detection somehow feels worse, & as for the graphics...well...I think they were going for photo-realism but it came out looking more dated than the 1st. The whole game just seems so unpolished.

To make a long story short, if you loved the 1st DOR, keep playing it! If you haven't played it & you're a cube owner: buy it! It's a lot cheaper & really amazing in comparison to this very poor follow up game.
