Same here man! I was so pumped he was In the game. He was my favourite.

Amen to that.

С какой ты страны друг ??

Same here, I didn' t know many fans didn't know about HBK

I remember I played a royal rumble match, and he was 3rd entrant I marked out

And tag table matches

You can even unlock Gerald brisco and pat patterson, as well as Michael cole.

And the Mean Street Posse, too.

Cactus Jack and TLC match

a lot of PS1 era games conveyed a cool atmosphere well despite the technical limitations. the Tony Hawk menus felt the same way

@@MPHswayze It was a good era, in many things, music too. Things were more experimental, games were no more than a decade and a half in the mainstream, lots of music was new and inventive, and now... It's like, everything's been kind of done, so instead of trying to do new things, stuff is just compartmentalized better, but lacks the flow of being truly natural and new.

I will never forget the menu sounds..

Absolutely

FACTS

Tho sym was the TRUE successor from both the smackdown games , THEN HCTP BLEW ALL 3 OF THOSE GAMES OUTTA THE PARK 🐐🔥

That's true. I still play it to this day.

Yes. 2k should take notes.

@@officespace7777 2K should shut their business and pass the torch to THQ

THQ went bankrupt in 2013​@ssvr2009

Just after unlocking Shawn Michaels in the iron man match at Judgement Day.

It was the same copy in Greece. So annoying lol

I think the issue was with the Pal versión. NTSC copy was complete

Я сходил с ума, думая, что помимо Остина и Х.Б.К там ещё кто-то крутой есть, пошёл в игровой клуб со своим 2в1 smackdown и подменил незаметно на smackdown2, унёс домой и прошёл весь сезон)

🤣🤣 Why would they bring back Benoit after he did what he did, u can also create him if u want o

i mean he was in the games up til 06, so idk what the big deal with benoit being in here is.....

Scratch that last part out. That murderer deserves no honor

Watch reliving the war, his work was legendary.

@@elijahloveell8809 Stop being a child. Art =/= Artist

reminds me of having a Pizza Hut demo disc with Tekken 3 on it. I think it only had 2 playable characters on it . by the time I got the full game I was a Howang expert even though I thought he was boring lol

@@MPHswayze Hwoarang* my favourite Tekken character too lol

@@EruditeMMA on Tekken 3 my favorite characters were Gon the dinosaur and Lei Wulong (?) the cop character. Of course Eddie Gordo the master of cheese has a soft spot lol

@@bogie4226 Eddie was definitely my favourite as a kid, he was just too cool Lei was awesome too, I was sad to see he might be getting taken off the roster for Tekken 8 due to him having one of lowest pick rates online 😭

@@EruditeMMA well thats a load of bull. I've kind of fallen out of touch with the tekken games but Lei has been a staple for a long time. Even just in mentioning I'd hate to see him go

That must have confused some players who played the Black Label and those who never played the game who know about the WWF Wrestling brand from the past

Or a tag team match against Dude Love and Cactus Jack.

Maybe because they're the same people?

@@cawcreatorcan’t be. Mick Foley was the GM in 2000, Mankind was a wrestler. Both different people! Next thing you’d be saying Cactus Jack and Dude Love are the same! 😅

absolutely supposed to be an arcade style game. i've been able to kick out of finishers before a one count (and vice versa.)

@@TheLarryburns84 i think thats more of a consequence of being made by japanese devs

What do you think the better game was overall?

Spare a thought for me, I woke up with dog sh!t wcw thunder under my tree 😂 my dad bought me the original smack down, and I loved it being a huge wrestling fan, and I had a blast playing with and against my friends. One friend had smack down 2, and I played it for a while, and knew I wanted it asap. My parents asked what I wanted for Christmas that year, and I said I only wanted smack down 2, not a single other thing. My mum thought I was just saying nothing else because we weren’t exactly rich in the early 00s, so she got thunder instead, and some other gifts I wasn’t interested in. I put it back under the tree 😂 and can’t even remember what the other presents were, but I didn’t touch them lol. I explained to her my frustrations, but she said thunder was like quarter the price, and she would get other things to make up the difference, I explained to her why thunder was so much cheaper and the whole wcw brand was an abomination at this point, and she single handily killed Christmas and my childhood (okay I didn’t exactly say that last part lol) she redeemed herself when gta San Andreas came out, and she didn’t hesitate buying me a copy lol.

@@donkiddick966 damn, dude. I’m sorry to hear that. Lol. I understand the frustration and disappointment and would have reacted similarly. I actually remember having SOME fun with Thunder. I never owned it and only rented it from Blockbuster back when you could rent a game for like 5 nights for $5.25 or something like that. I remember at one point I got bored and added everyone to Raven’s Flock lol and it was always funny that the developers put themselves in the game as unlock-able characters 😂 those were some fun memories. Would’ve hated it if it wound up under the Christmas tree, but fun memories otherwise.

@Thefckumean looking back my attitude was probably a little sh!tty lol. I wouldn’t say I was spoiled as a kid, but I was never refused much i asked for growing up. My parents got pay tv so I could watch raw and smack down, and nitro til it went to sh!t. I just found it funny that my mums justification was money’s tight, but there was always a box of beer in the fridge like 5-6 days a week them days 😂 one thing great about thunder was if ya changed factions, the wrestlers attires changed to suit which was an awesome feature, and the rants were cool. Ironically I liked playing nitro which was extremely similar, because I use to play against my brother, but he moved out by the time smack down 2 came out, and I was over the limited style of game play those titles had, and it just wasn’t as fun playing solo like smack down games were.

I'm picturing your mom coming in and saying "Know your role and go to bed!"

@@ramzy-1096 certain models of PS3 are backwards compatible, so yeah.
