One of the best wrestling games ever! Great graphics, for the time, awesome roster (Attitude Era), Several Match Types, etc. My only complaints would be, the long loading times, especially in season mode, for the littlest of cutscenes & you have to watch every match in season mode, by the way of power meters, between the superstars, when you simulate the matches, but other than that, great game, with fast arcade action!

"WWF Smackdown! 2: Know Your Role" still holds up to this day and is the best wrestling game on the PlayStation (PSone) has to offer. It is very easy to pick up and start playing. The controls are very easy to follow and learn. Gameplay is greatly improved over the first game as there is a larger variety of moves and match-types available. The game is packed with numerous features and modes which add a great amount of re-playability to the game. The game has a tremendous roster consisting of over 55 superstars which features most of the WWF roster from the year 2000. Most of the superstars from the first game return and they are joined by a large group of new superstars. There are also various unlockable and hidden superstars including the likes of Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels, Cactus Jack, Goldust, and Michael Cole, just to name a few. This game also marks the first appearance of the Ladder, TLC, and Hell in a Cell Match in the SmackDown series as well the first and only appearance of a Casket Match! Other match types include King of the Ring and Royal Rumble. The Backstage Areas available has increased and improved and they are even more interactive than in the first game. Season mode is 1-4 players and seemingly can last for as long as the player wishes. Through the season mode, you can earn ability points, unlockable superstars, new match types, and extra parts and costumes for the created superstar mode. The Create-A-Superstar mode is vastly improved over the previous game as you are now able to customize many aspects of your character much like in recent SmackDown games. You are still able to use the heads, torsos, or lower body of existing superstars. In addition, Create-A-Taunt, Create-A-Manger, and Create-A-Stable are available in the game. "WWF Smackdown! 2: Know Your Role" is an excellent game that is fun and easy to pick up. With the game's numerous modes and features, it's re-playability value is very good. This game surpasses the first game and, in many aspects, still better than it's own sequel "WWF SmackDown: Just Bring It" on the PS2. So if you want to feel nostalgic or just like wrestling games, this game is for you.Read full review

It's a great game, I loved it when it came out and I loved it when I had it, but my friend borrowed it and her jerk of a bf scratched it up so years later I had to get it again...and I love it, it's when jakk was working out bugs about how to make a game really cool and even by today's standards it's still cool but the load times are a bit...well vexing to say the least...too long and pointless but once you get beyond that it's a swell game to be enjoyed by all!
