Konami knows the lure of lush ladies in a fighting game, so that over a year ago the publisher already tried their hands at an all-female wrestler with Rumble Roses. Now the sequel has hit the Xbox 360, everything from the bold entrances to the scantly clad costumes and bone crushing gameplay is here in full high def glory. With Xbox Live you can also go online and team up with another beauty in the all-new Tag Team and Elimination modes, or compete in a free-for-all Battle Royal. There's more than 40 different vixens to choose from, and team dynamics are affected by each girl's attitude towards one another. Each wrestler's popularity with the crowd will rise or fall too, based on her fighting style and match results. Earn enough popularity and become a "superstar" with a new entrance sequence and upgraded moves. While fighting your way through your character's abilities will slowly evolve also, and depending on how you fight, your attacks may grow more powerful; your walking may become quicker, etc.
Beyond unlockable costumes, character editing goes into impressive detail, including everything you'd expect and a few you wouldn't, like muscle tone and breast size. When you're not fighting online, you can also upload and download images from your character photo shoots. Further game modes include a Queen's Match where the looser embarrasses herself in a Penalty Game where you not only get to choose what acts your opponent performs, but what they wear while doing it! Then there's the Handicap Match where a submission or pin fall by either partner ends the fight, a Pure Humiliation Match that can only be ended by an H-move, or a classic old school style Street Fight. With more in-depth gameplay than the first title, Rumble Roses XX has breasts, brains and balls all in one. Developed in conjunction with Yuke's Entertainment, famous for the SmackDown series, the US edition is in stock now, while the Japanese version is also coming up this Thursday.
