Video Game Reviews of WWF Smackdown! (Playstation)
Customer Review: Ah, the good ol' days of the WWE
Summary: 4 Stars
This was released back in early 2000, when the WWE was in its prime. You couldn't deny the excitement and the greatness of this game or era. It was a major improvement over the previous 1999 game Attitude. There were a lot of great things about this game, but also some disadvantages.
The following are parts of the game I rate from one to 10 (with 10 being the highest rating):
Roster: 8 - It had 90 percent of the current roster at that time, but I think lacked some of the newer elite superstars, such as Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit, and other superstars who were still active, such as The British Bulldog. It also only contained 3 female superstars out of the 36-person roster, but all in all, they made good choices.
Season Mode: 9 - Most people didn't like season mode, but it didn't bother me. However, I did find it annoying when unimportant cut-scenes, such as "I wonder what Steve Austin is talking about", popped up after every other match. Even with the pointless, corny cutscenes, it didn't have the 30 second loading screens the second game had or ten seconds to decide a winner of the match when skipping it (this game only takes a split second to determine)
Furthermore, in title matches, singles titles can sometimes randomly be held in 3- or 4-way dances, and not always against the same opponent(s) at every event in only a singles match, as is the case in KYR.
Rankings: 7 - It seems most superstars win far more often than others and are almost guaranteed to win their match (examples: Steve Austin, The Rock, Triple H, Big Show, Undertaker, Mankind), even when their heart's are at the minimum and the opponent at the maximum. However, in comparison to Know Your Role, the rankings determine getting a title shot of any title at any time rather than being limited to a certain championship division.
Gameplay: 9.5 - People complain about the gameplay being outdated or lacking fun, but it was the best wrestling game for its time. This is the only game that tells you the name of superstars' moves and what their most powerful moves (white letters for normal moves, gold letters for finishers and favorite moves).
Overall: 8.5 - If you are not a fan of the current WWE, but were a fan of what happened in 1998-2001, then this is the game for you. idk what else to say but to tell you that it's worth the money. you now can probably buy this for a cheap price at your local video game store or some thing.
Description of WWF Smackdown! (Playstation)
Lay the SmackDown! on your enemies with your own created jabroni or as one of the World Wrestling Federation's top superstars. Make friends and then break them as you roam backstage from the boiler room to the kitchen. Call upon your allies for help and then climb over them as you kick, grapple, and People's Elbow your way to the top. Just remember that backstage politics can work against you--don't let The Rock run-ins, well-placed metal chairs, and McMahon-appointed guest referees get you in the end.All Games
