I liked the first DOR better than DOR2. All in all Def Jam 2 is a funner "wrestling" game for your money. Yeah, I said it.

[Famicom]

I agree on both counts.

[IceCold]

I disagree.

Story mode = crap, but the actual gameplay is excellent. The absolutely closest thing to No Mercy as faw as WWE games are concerned.
