While I'll be the first to admit that the series could still work on its list of recurring problems, there's no other wrestling game since "No Mercy" that offers this much replay, value, or depth.

Hardcore wrestling fans will find the deepest reservoir of variety ever available, and may even forgive the feeble fighting system long enough to enjoy some theatrics.

Those who bought last year's game might find themselves disappointed by the lack of genuine innovation and new thrills. It's still a truly amazing game, but one that's in need of a freshening up and a different slant before they chuck out next year's version. [PSW]

This game came at my birth and it’s awesome for its time. with improved graphics the best looking PS2 game ever.

I like wrestling games and this one it's a wonderful game because of its gameplay. I really liked the season mode because it was different from the last games the wrestlers could move in realistic way, while the wrestler creator it was pretty enjoyable, it was the last time that the HCTP gameplay style was implemented in a wrestling game this game it's very good, the new installments in this game were the gm mode, and the championship match mode.

The create-a-wrestler mode was always the strongest asset of this game in past years, but this year the mode is the deepest it has ever been.

The best Smackdown game I've played.

A wrestling fan’s wet dream crammed onto a disc. Almost every mode you could possibly want is present and well done. The roster is top notch, with nearly every wrestler imaginable available.

It's excellent, and if you're a wrestling die-hard, you'll want to get it. But if you're not, we can't honestly say that this is different enough to last year's outing - which itself was hardly radically different to the previous year's - to be a must-have. [PSM2]

Has a huge amount of interesting wrestlers and game modes. Too bad the clunky and buggy fighting system is so clearly outdated. [Jan 2006]

Official Playstation Magazine and Eurogamer reviewers are such jackasses for giving a PS2 version a 7 and a 6 out of 10 and give PSP an 8/10 and obviously don't know what they're talking about.

Pros: Cool roster, GM mode is pretty cool, fast gameplay and the graphics, music and intros were high quality for ps2 gen. Cons: The collision detection is awful, not have a difficulty curve and the combat system is a step back compared to older games.
