    Re: IGN LOW:S Review.

    I don't know what to say. All those promising previews and then when the game comes out... I need more oppinions! I still liked LOW2 even though many, if not all, critics hated it and not all critics have hated Showdown however, some have. Please, if anyone here has tried the game, let us know what it's like!

          Heres the take on the Xbox version....

          Ratings: Description:
          out of 10 click here for ratings guide

          6.5 Presentation
          There's something to be said about a roster that places priority on the true legends of the profession, but the lack of any real lead-in to feuds and the multiple glitches really take away from it.

          6.5 Graphics
          Character models and textures look much better this year than last, but there are so many graphical snags its <font color="red"> ridiculous. Collision issues</font> , invisible animations, and others are everywhere.

          7.0 Sound
          The broadcast team was a good choice but the dialogue doesn’t flow as well as it could. The trailer trash rock anthems and Dolby Pro Logic II sound damn pretty good, though.

          5.5 Gameplay
          <font color="red"> A step backwards </font> , the gameplay system is overly simplistic with bad timing and poor A.I. Multiplayer is fun, but the graphical glitches play into the grappling mechanics. That's not so fun.

          6.0 Lasting Appeal
          Showdown's Showdown Challenge is a nice diversion, but nowhere near as deep as 2002's career mode. The classics match feature is cool, however, and multiplayer could get a rise out of your friends.

          5.9 OVERALL:
          (out of 10 / not an average)

          Look for this game in the bargain bins real soon.... It really shouldn't be over 19.99 to begin with.. oh well 3 sucky wrestling games in a row, at least they are consistant...

                            Hey Eddie, remember when we were trying to play Raw 2 last year on the floor? That was hilarious! Does this game play as bad as RAW 2?
