I love the pbr, so what better way to have the pbr every day than a game. This game is NOT for people who who don't like or don't know anything about the pbr. You need to understand the concept of it before you play the game. The graphics are great and it is cool how you can be the cowboy or the bull. Anyone who says that this game stinks is out of their mind and probably can't appreciate the awesomeness that is the PBR!!!!

Sierra Sports Professional Bullrider 2 is a good simulation of bullriding that still has a lot of room for improvement. Let me say right here that you have to be a rodeo fan to appreciate this game. If you don't understand bullriding, then don't even bother with this game. Gameplay is one of the strongpoints of this game. When controlling the cowboy, you use the joystick to control his body position in relation to the bull. The joystick, in a sense, becomes your body. On the harder levels you need to react quickly to the bull's movements or you will find yourself eating dirt with the bull's horns in your back. Just like in real bullriding. You can also control the bull, which I never really enjoyed. There is a season mode for both cowboys and bulls where you compete at all of the major PBR stops while trying to win the championship. The rules and the way the events run are all the same as the way the PBR does it. There is a special mode for bullfighting which is a fun diversion when you start to get bored with the regular game.

The graphics are ok, but I really think they could have done a much better job in this area. The cowboy animations are pretty good and the bull animations look good from behind. But when you see the bull from the side it looks stiff and unnatural. The cowboys are all the same height in the game and there is only one face for all the cowboys with different facial hair added. There are a good number of real bulls in the game and a lot of bulls created by Sierra. I would like to see any future versions have all real bulls. There are lots of little things like that that they could have done to the game to make it feel more realistic. If Sierra is going to pursue this market, the least they can do is add all the little perks that they do for the other sports games.

Sierra has made good bullriding game in Professional Bullrider 2. It remains to be seen if they can make a great bullriding game.

As a mother of a want-to-be bull rider, I must say this game is action packed full of entertainment. For my son,Tyler, Michigan's 4 time State Champion Dummy Roper, this is a must have game. We bought it once and lost the disk. Now, I'm looking fratically to replace it. But I must admitt, you do have to know the ins and outs of rodeo to appreciate this game. It helps to know the different bulls listed and the riders. My son was named after Ty Murray and enjoys playing as him. This is a great game and worth every penny. Cowboy up and enjoy!! Hats off to you Sierra Sports on a job well done.

I read the reviews and someone said that it takes 2 seconds instead of 8. You need a faster computer for this game to work right. I think this game is fun but it does get kind of boring once you play it all day for a whole week. I think playing the cowboy is the hardest. Playing the bull is easy and fun.

This game was NOT all I expected. Yes, it is very cool you can make your own cowboys and bull, but that is the most exciting part. When you rid the bull it is supposed to take eight seconds, but on the game it takes about 2. Still this game is WAY better than the first.
