Virtual Pro Wrestling 2: Oudou Keishou

"Wow just wow!"

First off, this game is a must have. It is a Japanese import game, and it is definitely worth the 40-70 dollars you shell out.
Let’s break it down.
Appearance – Well the opening video is actually really cool. It is mostly of A.J.PW, but I’m pretty sure that’s the license AKI used.
There are tons of moves, and a crapload of wrestlers as soon as you look at the stats screen. The only problem I have about playing it is that you have to translate everyone’s names into English (like typing them all over again)
Fun level-10
A very fun game, I play it for hours at a time. There are so many hidden characters to unlock, and there are royal rumbles, and a career, and even a shoot-fighting mode! There are unlimited possibilities of wrestlers to create, but I won’t spoil it for you.
Here is al list of the feds in the game:
A.J.P.W.
N.J.P.W.
Mexican/lucha libre
Michinoku Pro
FMW/W*ING/ECW /HARDCORE
3 freakin’ legend stables

Sound-9
For an Aki game, it sounds great, Vader says his Vader time, and there are numerous grunts, yells, screams, and other sounds to choose from. The music is a little stale, but other than that it sounds good

Replayability10
The game never gets old!!! There are so many possibilities that it’s amazing, and the fact that there are so many things to unlock, will glue you to the TV screen, and you’ll need glasses in no time!!!!!

Graphics – Well what can I say, AKI isn’t known for their graphics. The usual, blocky, parts detached, but it really isn’t that bad
Content- 9
The moves are so nicely performed,and with so many, including some I won’t spoil for you (read an faq!) But there are tons of awesome Japanese and American moves in this game The graphics, are well ok to say the most, however for an aki game, they’re perfectly fine. The only problem I have with this game is how hard it is to get. Then, when you get it, you have to find a translation FAQ. There are numerous “bonuses” as you get a mask editor/maker, a belt maker, and a logic/ai editor.

Overall-To say the least, this game is awesome, with everything to unlock, and so many wrestlers, it is truly wonderful. Oh and for you garbage lovers, there are barbwire bats, sickles, and sticks just to name a few!! The game is worth it plain and simple, so go shell out 40 bucks on www.japanvideogames.com, and you’ll have an hour-by-hour game, which is in my opinion “THE VERY BEST WRESTLING GAME EVER!!!!!!” 9/10
