    This game is teh r0x0rs...for many reasons. 1 - Hawt chixx0rs: This game satisfies a lot of sexual fetishes, and has gorgeous, 10,000 polygon models of attractive women. This is actually basically a softcore pr0n. I heard about this on 4chan a while back, and now I've played it, and teh chixx0rz = teh w00tness. Just try to keep the fapping to a minimum, please. 2 - VOW system: You This game is teh r0x0rs...for many reasons. 1 - Hawt chixx0rs: This game satisfies a lot of sexual fetishes, and has gorgeous, 10,000 polygon models of attractive women.

Just try to keep the fapping to a minimum, please. 2 - VOW system: You can change your character's personality in Exhibition mode by completing certain missions using what's called a VOW system. If you are a n00b at wrestling games, you will get pwned by teh AI. But if you play SmackDown! and/or practice at this game a lot, these missions should be easy...except for VOW #30. How in teh hexx0r do I not take any damage. But if you complete enough VOWs that are against your character's alignment, her personality will change. For example, the teacher, Miss Spencer's personality alignment is 'Face' (fan favorite), but as she becomes a 'Heel' (a 'villain' of wrestling), she transforms from a teacher to an S&M freax0r who is escorted to the ring by a half-naked clown (who is unfortunately only whipped once), and becomes known as 'Mistress Spencer'. Once your character's personality is 100%, she can participate in a Title Match. Win, and you have her in teh gallery. 3 - t3h st0ry!: The story is pretty corny, sure, but there is some stuff in there that made me lmao HARD. Trust me. If you wanna laugh your ass off, this is where you are guaranteed to do just that. 4 - teh f1ght1ng: If you are a fan of Smackdown!, then you will catch on pretty quickly. The button mapping is slightly different though. And some moves humiliate your opponent, hell, some moves even humiliate yourself. But once you have a bar ready, if your opponent is fully embarassed, you can pull off a l33t Humiliation Move. Opponent not humiliated? You can still pull off a Killer Move (done from any posiition in which your opponent is standing), or a Lethal Move (Pulled off in a special position). You can even wrestle in a pool of mud (which Konami did a good job with, by the way)! 5 - Teh pr353nt4t10n: The music is incredible, and the song "Yankee Rose" makes me wanna memorize it so I can sing along. The entrance movies are great. Especially the entrances for Showbiz and Becky.… Expand

    The game looks great, plays great, and is LOTS of fun. The women look fantastic, far better than in DOA2. My only complaints are that there are not as many wrestlers as I would like (although this might be because they give a detailed background, costumes, and entrance show & music to each wrestler). Also the story mode is really silly, with poor acting, but who cares? Did you expect a The game looks great, plays great, and is LOTS of fun. The women look fantastic, far better than in DOA2.

The engine itself plays great although I sometimes have trouble getting defensive moves to work right. If you like to see hot chicks fighting (and who doesn't), what are you waiting for?

    I preordered and got my copy today, now I have played more than 4 hours. It is fine but still left a lot to be done. Konami sais they use 10000 polygons on every character, I don't know this stuff, but characters are really not that polished as those in DOA. If that is called 10000 polygons, DOA must have 2 times more than that. I never expect RR has a kickass story and I am I preordered and got my copy today, now I have played more than 4 hours.

Gameplay is well done, even though lack a little depth, but playing and watching girls messing with each other is pure fun. I won't recommend this game to you guys even though I bought the game and decided to keep it. Rent if first if you are really eager to see those girls. After all, it is the first VOA style game on PS2. … Expand

    Ik denk dat het een goed spel zal worden want jullie kennen er niks van. En het leukste van al is ik kan jullie uitschellen zoveel ik kan. Lelijke mensen

    This is a good game overall. The gameplay can be a little difficult at first, but it is possible to continue defeating the computer. The animations are not perfect, but graphics are decent for 2004. Some of the characters are borderline racist or sexist, I'm not sure which, but I'm not going to take this seriously. I'd rather play the sequels but I don't have an X360. This is good enoughThis is a good game overall.

    My guilty pleasure to play with friends. I don't play it because it's particularly good or anything; I play it because it's hilarious and the controls are somehow ridiculously fun to play if you've got a few like-minded friends.

    Also it makes for a great conversation starter when people walk in the room and see you maxing out an embarrassment meter while you're playing a busty teacher and    My guilty pleasure to play with friends.

    Good battle system, it's fun to play, and although there are few stipulations for exhibition matches, there is a story mode where each character has their own story, one of the best women's wrestling games.

    Oh , another gem in gaming history. Not only is it a fun to play wrestling game, the female protagonists are awesome and have a fun enough backstory to be likable. Of course this game focuses on a male audience who always like to pick the female protagonist in a fighting game for their own reason.

    One of my favorite games ever!!! I love since I was a kid. I love the story mode, the girls, and I wish this had a remake

    Eu me lembro de ver as personagens lutando e ficar louco com meus amigos rindo, a minha favorita era a japonesinha, tbm me lembro tbm de ficar com vergonha quando jogava contra meu pai kkk,

    Esse jogo tinha um bug muito louco que uma das personagens na roupa de biquíni ficava com o modelo do braço em formato de triangulo kk, eu vi isso a primeira vez na fase da lama, no inicio eu e meu pai falamos q era um bug maluco, e dps agnt começou a falar que era um escudo da personagem e uma mecânica do jogo kkkkk.

    E como não lembrar da lutadora ciborg? kkkk, mano ela era osso de vencer, que personagemzinha atentada kkk, a primeira vez q lutei com ela penei, depois eu peguei o jeito, mas quando ela usava o especial de braços de hélice não tinha escapatória, posso ta com a memória ruim, mas me lembro que quando acertava a nossa personagem ela voava pro alto e saía fumaça kk.

    De qualquer forma, posso ta recomendando o jogo e dando 10 pelo fator nostalgia, mas tenho certeza que se eu jogasse dnv eu iria me divertir muito, e é isso que importa pra mim, o jogo pode não ter uma história ótima como o shining force neo que eu to jogando agora, mas se ele tem pelo menos uma gameplay divertida, cara.. isso pra mim já é o bastante.    … Expand

    Sadly, it's still hard to really pull off your basic wrestling moves with any regularity, and more often than not, you'll be repeating the same move over and over again.

    Gallery mode (aka Pants Around Ankles mode) lets sexually repressed gamers get ridiculously close to some virtual flesh.

    While the game's wrestling mechanics are sound, the game's overwrought method of titillation gets completely in the way of the action, and the game's campy-to-a-fault story mode is just plain terrible.
