My programming instructor in school was a producer on this series (and a bunch of other games you've covered) and he told me a handful of very silly stories about what it was like working with the musicians during this game's development. Seems like it was a blast

A little fun fact about this game this was almost supposed to be a sequel to the 1st WCW mayhem game but WWE bought WCW and the plans for WCW mayhem 2 were scrapped

2:58 I couldn't play these games without expecting him to say "indeed" at some point.

Recently played this on twitch and I honestly forgot how fun these games are

Super hyped for the backyard wrestling videos!

Bro this two games was the shit back than I remember back in 2003 me and my brothers was at auntie House on weekend and one day that game was on the TV we had the GameCube at the time and we all look at the game we all look like wow what the my aunt was like yeah I know I get for you guys and the next week on Saturday we was so happy to play this game we got on PS2 and part 2 we got and beat the game love both of them good times good times.

Loved the Backyard wrestling games!

Super stoked to see a Backyard Wrestling video.

Awesome video! I spent a lot of hours on FFNY as well, lol. Im surprised you didn't mention the PSP port of FFNY while I myself didn't play it but I heard it had additional content and small improvements, unless they weren't substantial enough to include in a video. As someone who grew up on Fight Nights, Def Jams, and WWE games, these videos are appreciated and a blast of nostalgia, so thank you. 🙏

well,after being at your livestream,i did talk about how your normal voice sounds nothing like your youtuber voice so maybe that's why some people think you're an ai.you gave a pretty good explanation why your voice sounds so different when you make videos too

love the channel, been fun seeing where ya take it since the skateboarding games

The somewhat monotone voice is a big reason why I stayed and watched your videos when I first found you. Easy to listen to and shit. Good shit, dude.

I loved Vendetta and need to play Fight for NY. Also I see the ICP music in the beginning

Idk man but the intro sounds like something AI would say

I would definitely try Stoked it felt like early iteration of what Skate would be like on a snowboard

vendetta just looks like wcw/nwo revenge gameplay

Pretty crazy how you can hear the AI voice in this video take a breath often some words, aswell as the inflections. Kind of want to hear it say the word "tits".

EA just needs to remake Simpsons hit and run

I also played Fight for NY first and got the Vendetta a few years after it and didn't put too much time into it. I feel like everyone who owned Fight for NY universally loved it and it's obvious to see why. Honestly, if a sequel was ever made more akin to brawlers like Streets of Rage, but in 3D where the goal is to get to the end of the level beating up mooks and finally fighting a boss AI, I'd be down 100%. Which is weird because the actual sequel Icon had the opposite effect, where everyone who owned it universally hated it. It's been over a decade since I played Icon and while a rhythm based brawler sound unique and fits Def Jam more than wrestling, I honestly forget why we all disliked it. Looking forward to that review where you hopefully find the answer lad!

I've only played one wrestling game. It's called "The Simpsons Wrestling".

Never played these games because of me not being too much into hip hop culture (I like hip hop but not a devout listener) and because everyone I knew that played these told me it was better off played in multilplayer and back then I barely had people to play games with To this day I regret that, and also still shocked nowadays Henry Rollins appears in Fight for NY

You don't sound like A.I., but you def sound like that ex-Bioshock writer who has that show on youtube called 'Movies with Mikey'

Im gonna say this, if anyone says Fat Joe in fight for new york or NORE in vendetta didnt kick their ass the first time they played then theyre not being honest

Huh, what platform are you on to get these achievements? Cuz I would never expect that game to ever be rereleased?

I don't think you sound like an AI, but I also know u, lol.
