Day of Reckoning is
without a doubt the best wrestling game to be released on
the GameCube to date.
One
of the biggest problems with this genre is that it is very
easy to get bored with the game well before you've mastered
all the moves. Being thrown around a ring by your opponents
is not much fun if you have no idea what buttons to press.
Thankfully Day of Reckoning has a great tutorial mode
that will help you get to grips (no pun intended) with the
basics.
In
the story mode, you get to create your own character and have
them progress through the ranks of amateur wrestlers, to eventually
hit the big time. Sadly though, this mode is a little defunct
if you are a woman and want to create your own female characters
- there are none. In fact this is certainly not a game for
girls - the sexist image and title "Bra & Panties"
on the back of the game pack proves that this is aimed more
at your sexist, brainless Neanderthal. And what do you think
this "Bra & Panties" mode is all about? How
about women cat fighting and ripping off each others clothes
- yes, I thought that might prick up a few ears!
While
this is all tongue in cheek fun, there will no doubt be complaints
that this is degrading to women - I doubt anyone will complain
that seeing a bunch of men walking around in swimming trunks,
try to pin one another to the ground is degrading to men though!
If
you play alone quite a lot, then you're not really going to
get the full effect of this game. It really is much more fun
in two player mode. But, if you want to get down and dirty
with the best wrestling game on the GameCube, then you need
to buy this immediately.
