The link above will take you to IGN's lengthy article on the all new Gamecube wrestler, DOR 2. The game sports several improvements over its predecessor in areas such as graphics, content, story mode, gameplay, and roster (Hulk Hogan and Ultimate Warrior, yes!). This game so far sounds and looks awesome. Stay tuned to IGN for coverage and videos.

Here's also a sample of the first screenshots:

Sounds pretty good so far. ;d Though I was hoping the story mode would be an improved version of DoR 1's story mode. That "bottom of the barrel to top of the mountain" was pretty apealing to me. But I guess the general consumer didn't really like it.

Ah well, DoR 2's story mode still sounds pretty good.

Well, DOR 2's storyline is essentially just the continuation of you personal wrestler's story from DOR 1. I wonder if this new title will allow you to carry over data from the previous game. That would be great!

Sounds okay, but I would like some more offered. The storyline of having to win and such was a little unrealistic. But hopefully it will turn out okay.

Well ya know, WWF No Mercy had storyline matches you had to win, and that game was considered by many to be the best WWF/WWE wrestling game ever produced. So there's no problem there, as long as they offer some different paths in the story mode, than its fine. After awhile, all season/career modes get boring anyway. Including the Smackdown! games where you end up facing the same wrestler a hundred times (just like on TV!).

Also, DOR 1 was a really good game. I actually still play it alot now. The career mode was great, and just regular matches are a blast to play! DOR is the only game where I can simulate Triple H matches perfectly. The game's AI is so realistic it's amazing. I'm expecting even more of that in DOR 2.
