| − | '''''Backyard Wrestling 2: There Goes the Neighborhood''''' is the second installment in the ''Backyard Wrestling'' series and was released on Xbox and PlayStation 2. The licensed soundtrack includes music by [[Andrew W.K.]], [[Kool Keith]], the [[Insane Clown Posse]], [[Bad Brains]], [[Body Count]], [[Six and Violence]], [[Mudvayne]] and [[Hoobastank]]. |

||
| − | It was developed by [[Paradox Development]], now owned by [[Midway Games]], and was published by [[Eidos Interactive]] |
||

| − | ==Gameplay== |
||
| − | The roster of underground wrestlers features more than 20 combatants, including notable hardcore wrestlers, music personalities, and a few adult film actresses. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The game was greatly improved over its predecessor, including a more in depth create-a-wrestler mode. The game also included a switch for turning the game's blood effects on and off in contrast to the original game's lack of said switch. Each wrestler now has an introduction video, though the female non-wrestlers' videos contain more [[eye candy]] than wrestling. There are also three unlockable music videos. |
