  1. What it comes down to though is if this game can compete with other console platform programs. Only on an average level.
  2. Legends has a very unique gameplay style and makes good use of all the GameCube controller's buttons. [August 2002, p.82]
  3. The loading times will put you to sleep. The difficulty doesn’t even seem to change when you increase the settings. The gameplay becomes too repetitive and has little to no variety.

    I think this game is very good. The controlls are brilliant and if you're a wrestling fan you will be suprised just how good this game plays. It is realistic, tactical and has a very good 1 player mode, in which you have to fight in different areas of America and become popular to get a shot at winning the title. The grafix are ok but could be alot better and the sound could also be improved. Overall the desighners of this game made a very good attempt and I think the controll system should be used in other wrestling games of the future, as it`s easy to perform and reverse moves. Expand
