Backyard Wrestling 2: There Goes the Neighborhood is a game in a series of wrestling games aimed at young gamers, that was released for the Xbox and for the PlayStation 2 in 2004. Backyard Wrestling was developed by Paradox Development, while the publishers of the series
are Eidos.

Backyard wrestling is also a term used for executing moves as seen on television or in live shows while not being trained to perform them. Professional wrestlers are highly prepared for their stunts, not to mention the kind of help they receive from props and cinematic angles, from which the average person does not benefit. There's an ongoing debate on whether practicing wrestling-like moves outside the official sporting venue is a bad thing or not. However, try to not imitate anything you see in this game.

Backyard Wrestling offers a rather humorous take on the whole wrestling frenzy that is sweeping the world. All the wrestlers in the game are kids. You can choose one of the already existing characters or you can create your own wrestler so that you can then pit them against already established names.

Because the backdrop of the wrestling game is a backyard, as suggested by the title, there are a lot of things that are different from professional wrestling. The moves are even more outrageous than they are in real fights and the physics are much more forgiving. Also, everything within the game world can be used to hit the adversary or as props for even more weird fighting moves. Do not try any of this in real life!

GAMEPLAY HINTS

Easy money

While in career mode, go to the pool area. Grab the skimmer as fast as possible and start to beat your opponent. Never put it down and just keep beating them. Eventually the match will be over and you will get about $40 per match on average.

Easy win

When creating your character, select Ruckus' fighting style. When you are fighting someone, keep pressing kicking and you will do a seven hit combo for 1,075 damage.

GLITCH

Construction Site: Go through wood

Start a two-player match. Have player two go to the bottom of the site. Then, have player one jump off where you start. You will not go through the wood on the first jump. Do it two or three times.
