I miss smack down vs raw
Yes Indeed!!
Same. These new games are so clunky and robotic and awkward.
I miss No Mercy
@@TRC19999 I miss Yuke's. Still pissed 2K took them off developing the games to develop it internally.
It's the same way the UFC games have been utter crap since EA took over development.
Life goes on. Deal with it or buy a ps2 and play them till your hearts content
The ability to beatup Logan Paul is enough incentive to buy this game
You can do dat on 23

Makes sense, Logan Paul is a scammer
If the biggest complaint about this game is "the crowd looks bland" this is a very great game
Superfly shifted 3 inches mid air to do his frog splash, the ref stands still and wobbles after the 3 count. The entire game is a load of 3 gen ago dogshit😂
The old THQ games on PS1 were fun as hell.
And the PS2 WWE Shut your mouth if you play anywhere falls match you can literally go to backstage, boiler room, car park, underground railway tunnel, so many hidden areas also where you can fight in that game!
@@nepaliprayasgurung2594SYM was the best game so far
@@nepaliprayasgurung2594 Oh my gawd, I love that one.😭
The old one didn't cheat you out of a counter the old one had an immersive branching franchise mode and was fun without the need of universal mode and all those other Bs modes that are thrown in in spite of its horrid gameplay
I haven't loved a wrestling game since wcw/nwo revenge and wwf no mercy ;/
I always watch these videos after I bought the game lmao.

Smackdown Here Comes the Pain is goated!
@@jasonsmith530you’re in the minority.
@@jasonsmith530 you haven't played Here Comes the Pain or Shut Your Mouth. Or you just have shit taste
Sad to see the career mode is still so barebones.
Kinda wish you had the whole branching storylines that were in the older SvR games. Going from point A to point B and talking to NPC C over and over gets very old and it doesn't feel like your decisions do much aside from steer you in one direction.
its so corny just like with their nba 2k career mode
MyGm mode is way better anyways
They try and cover it up with a bunch of bs modes that don't compare to the original career mode

As a WWE games devotee, my biggest issue since the reboot in ‘22 is the reliance on the combo system and step back to a less fluid grappling system.
I have no intention of buying this game, but I still watch the before you buy 😂
Same lol
It’s really good… way better than I expected.
its already pirated and crack 😂
I def had intentions to, which is why I love my BYB's 😩
@@highsensefn1449 Huh... surprised they didn't put Denuvo on it like NBA 2K24 lol
Wait the game isn't even out yet officially LMAO
7:26 I remember in Smack Down! Here Comes The Pain, I changed the Undertaker's entrance movements to one of the Divas haha
Stone Cold’s Disturbed theme is back too
The WWF attitude era will always be my favorite. I had a WWF N64 game that everyone in the neighborhood played. Just bring your N64 memory card, and it's on! Things changed with introducing Smackdown, then the name changing to WWE.
Here comes the pain ps2 >>>>>
Shitty Nintendo 64 one no mercy and wrestlemania 2000 or far superior
It actually got better with that... smackdown vs raw was awesome
Day of reckoning 2 was the best on gamecube
I remember picking "no mercy" on 64 over "smash bros" and regretting it at checkout xD😂 but after I played it, I was hooked!
i had alot of fun with 2k23 last yr after not playing a wrestling game in quite some time. Glad to see continued steps in the right direction. Those Smackdown HCTP/SVR days as a kid are long gone but its nice to have fun playing wrestling games again !
Love the videos. Skipped 2k23, but definitely gonna jump into 24. Y’all’s before you guys are always a good watch and very informative
The reversals are definitely harder this year. Multiple times I had where the reverse button would pop up, I press it and it says too EARLY like how. But I’m getting better with it
thanks for giving us some straight up gameplay and some first impressions!
I doubt they would ever do it but I would love to see the green shirt guy in the crowd where he always is I think it would add another small layer of real life to the game
Coming back to wresting games since not playing since SmackDown vs Raw 2007…it is refreshing to come back to an upgraded franchise with the new graphics and mechanics 17 years later.
Smackdown vs Raw 07 has a better GM mode than the current games
So not much was added to it since 2k23? @@gator9339
The fact I just realized 2007 is actually 17 years ago is upsetting
You did NOT just realise @@dcigsfan2306
this is my first wwe2k game since 2k16, its been amazing, very fun and ive played about 15 hrs already
My issue with showcase mode is the constant cutscenes interrupt the game play every 2 minutes there’s a cut scene & if you take a look at all the objectives on the side you must do you’ll find yourself pausing & checking out the control screen more often then not to figure out how to do certain moves. Show case feels more like a chore than anything
Absolutely right. It is. The clips setting it all up are okay, but then just let me play the match without a boring checklist.
I genuinely thought my tv screen was on the fritz when everything went pink and green!
Jessie Esinberg.... I've been watching videos and wondering who your voice reminded me of....I finally got it
I still play smackdown vs raw 2008 to remind myself that these games were fantastic at one point.
That game was the beginning of the downfall of the series
I stopped playing after the first smackdown vs raw. Cuz it was total shit compared to Smackdown here comes the pain.
This game is vastly superior to SvR 2008, nostalgia is hell of a drug
@@hypn0298facts I didn’t come back until wwe 12 lol. I loved that game especially the universe mode truly one of the best If not the best. Don’t know why they won’t simply make the current universe mode like it
That game is not even close to WWE 2k23 or 2k24. The new games are way better
Haven’t really been keeping up with WWE games since PS2 days. Miss the old Here Comes the Pain games but damn todays WWE graphics look incredible
Im bummed to hear about showcase. I loved playing through Rey, Cena and Daniel Bryans stories in the last few games.
Watched your vid loved it, everything you said I was thinking so thanks for that,have a good day and stay safe pal...
between the massive roster (possibly the biggest in a wrestling game ever) and all the improvements and new match modes this is the best wrestling game I've played in years. Everything else is just the cherry on top and I for one am very happy with this game.
New dark side of the ring season started as well folks
Oh shit good looks I love that shit have you seen Nine Lives of Vince?
The throw weapon mechanics made this more 10x fun
Should've been had that in 2k22
Can’t even get an online match going though
@NewJerseyNets11 throwing weapons feature is so overrated and doesn't even justify the game either. Only used it like twice and forgot it was even there.
I just cant wait for the custom characters
It’s getting there hey. The realism is starting to happen.
But it’s always the animation that catches up with the high standard of 3D models. Still a bit jittery. But I know why. When you get two separate animations which are about to interact, they need to align, then execute their action.
Not easy to get right. This why sometimes you see the models of the wrestlers floating towards each other.
Thanks for the info. Just made a comment wondering why the animation seemed so stiff and not fluid. Weird that they can often get it right in one-on-one fighting games and not this though (which this essentially is).
"Realism," in wrestling is like, "realism," in anime. Let's not bullshit one another.
Also worth mentioning, most of the if not all motioncaptures are not done by the wrestlers but by a smaller group of actors/doubles, who may have a different physique than what the wrestler has. LA Knight used to do the animation captures for a ton of wrestlers and he is a pretty big guy, so they all sort of moved like him, even though they should be more nimble
@@Shavinderyt
yea, good point.
@@WraithHeartNot to be too blunt here, but you really think just about anyone could get in the ring and wrestle without hurting themselves or others in the process?! That's just idiotic thinking. Also, just to let you know, there are so many things that you learn from anime, there are very realistic animes about cooking, judo, ping pong, bullying, etc. which actually simulate real life pretty well, there exists anime other than just the mainstream anime.
The other day i found my copy of WWF Attitude for N64. I should track down a console and remind myself how far we've come.
I totally agree with the “getting to know the wrestler” during the showcase. I think it really gets you involved with the mode.
Grew up playing 'WWF No Mercy' and 'NWO vs WCW Revenge' with my friends. Good times. Love to see so many old superstars featured in this.
a lot of old superstars are here
Neck Crank and Russian Neck Drop ftw
'NWO vs WCW Revenge' doesn't exist
@@dr.loomis4221 WCW/NWO Revenge...same difference.
I really feel like I’ve got my moneys worth with this game. We were all hoping fight forever was going to be great and I don’t know anyone who doesn’t feel like they were ripped off and not listened to who purchased it
This is a great wrestling game that has a lot to do both single and multiplayer
I'm still playing smackdown vs raw 2006 on ps2. 2k24 looks good so far. I'm glad to see some classic wrestlers. Hopefully, they will continue with more classic wrestlers. Also, hopefully, they go all out on the customizing ability.
I hit a super plex through a table and bayley crawled to the pin. Tired pins, and tired finishers look awesome

@@ChrisFroemmingyou good bro eating while watching youtube hits different
@@yea8937 hell yeah!
the wrestlemania concept is a good idea as it allows more legends from previous years to be in the game and by changing things up from the normal story mode not concentrating on 1 wrestler this time round.
Just bought it . Currently downloading. Looks so good me and my wife are gonna have a blast. We been playing battle grounds on the switch not the best but still load of fun
That sounds awesome
The last wrestling game I played was WCW thunder for the playstation.
I'm so sorry
I miss wcw on n64
these games really need an AI overhaul. you need to have distinct personalities. too many wrestlers feel exactly the same and its just their animations that differentiate them from each other. some wrestlers going to the top rope, being hard to lift, and some just leaving the ring to grab a weapon isnt enough. fire pro got this better so many years ago
I’m replaying Here Comes the Pain atm and even back then you could feel how distinctly different the characters feel I.e. Brock, RVD, the Rock, Goldberg, Angle etc etc. Kinda crazy that they haven’t been able to capture that in recent years
This stuff was already figured out during the 16-bit era and was perfected during the PS1 era especially with the Fire Pro Wrestling games, that even left the whole AI portion of the game wide open for you own edits to fiddle with (there are really long and in-depth yt videos just about Fire Pro's CPU logic settings). Some Fire Pro Fans even simmed and finetuned their creations to mimic the real behaviour of wrestlers when controlled by the CPU without actually playing the game itself. But this also shows the priorities of the devs of the current generation, when essential (and well documented) features like realistic behaviour is neglected in favour of micro-transactions and other predatory schemes instead.
That and opponents are pretty general and dull minded. In stipulation matches they automatically gun for the objects after putting me down, or prioritize getting another weapon when there’s multiple already around.
They definitely should consider those little quirks more often, it’s what makes a match feel less mechanical.
Also throwing me out of the ring just to throw me back into the ring, that one makes me want to cry every-time
in hctp, chris benoit did always his taunt before going to the top rope for his finishing move. undertaker had always his streak combo and goldberg made his taunt when the opponent was down and then gave him a spear when he got up
The biggest improvements they did was they fixed Cody Rhodes theme with alternate attiers and secondly this first cm punk game sense wwe 2k15 but as dlc
Is there a way to adjust the camera higher so that you're not looking through the ropes?
A lot of people stuck in nostalgia in the comments 2k24 is great
I'll be receiving my copy on the 11th. Really loved playing WRESTLEMANIA 2000 on the 64, good ole days
Facts that one was my favorite on N64
@@knightmare716 the best to be honest, no mercy was a close second but WrestleMania 2000 just got most of my time. I was a huge WCW fan but unfortunately the WCW games weren't that good sadly.
How are the online servers? That was the main problem on my end at least from last year. The matches would constantly disconnect
Worser than last year can’t even get an online match going
Imagine 2K19 grappling mechanics with SD HCTP arcady feel!
I think these are the best they've been since the PS2 days and I highly recommend them. The amount of content on community creations alone will keep you busy for hours.
👍🏼
2k24 is going to one the best wrestling games in long time
Special Referee is the best WWE mode ever. if you played the old games and had one or two buddys at hand, you understand.
When we do the smack down. It should show in big letters across the screen like old times
So weird that they would choose to use so much footage where they had to blur out key figures and information. Like, I know they've had to edit out all the appearances of the old WWF logo (because Vince screwed up in his dealings with the World Wildlife Fund, a story that never ceases to amuse me), but why use footage of Hulk Hogan being interviewed, but blur out Mean Gene's face? Paul Orndorff walking to the ring with Roddy Piper, blurred. Referees and announcers from the past, blurred. I fully understand that it's most likely due to the fact that they don't have the rights to use their images, but it just looks so messy to have so many instances of this blurring in the game. One of the screens I saw in this video was just a static shot of a crowd with the words "Wrestlemania" and "Madison Square Garden" on top-and the MAdison Square Garden part was blurred out! Looks so low rent, amazed they chose to use so much of that.
They made this all before the allegations came out. A similar thing happens with the roster every year where by the time the game comes out some of them aren’t in wwe anymore or some new ones didn’t show up in time to be in the game
Get it for the weapon throwing alone.
Hmmm, just for curiosity’s sake, why was Mean Gene blurred out in the Hogan footage? Did he get wrapped up in that Vince mess?
I only play univese mode in the games
Create a show make or download some caws
And start some storylines
4:14 what's up with the blue tint? Is the match being treated like with the fiend and seth hell in a cell match with the red lights?😂😂
Looks like a negative film filter. Possibly copywrite issue? 🤷♂️
It's a custom arena with custom effects and I hope your pillow is warm from both sides this night for reminding me of that abomination of a match
@@sakshamsharma3527 muhahhaahah
Basically it's the same game.
With a few patches for wonky AI behaviors, this will be a great game beyond MyFaction
I use to buy WWE games every year but took a few years off when they got repetitive.
How would this game be for someone coming back?
I was in the same boat as you... It sounds like this years game is building off of last year, which I thought was fun and I played through a lot of it. I am excited for this one this year. A lot of the wrestling youtubers have said good things as well.
If you played the one from last year, it’s slightly better.
Same as me this year I went for it. Blown away very very good man
it depends what you last played. if you have 2k23 then 24 is a waste of money for you. its like buying a iphone 15 after saving up for the iphone 14 the year before.
@@johnmarkson1998 last one I played was 2K 17
Crazy that 2k14 was the last game where we could import tag teams & stables into universe mode. 2k just can't figure it out.
Low key I was waiting on this vid to drop
I’ve basically played every wwe 2k game havin 100’s of hours in each game really looking forward to seeing how 2k24 shapes out to be one I get it I have a combined 2576 hours on the ps5 and 4 of the wwe 2k games over the years I really like the games it’s my go too
I still can't believe these games peaked in the decade of 2000-2010 how is that possible that it can be still making games, 14 years later that can't even come close to ps2 and 360 games. You have the easiest blueprint in the world to copy from.

I feel like I'm going to react the same way to the WM Showcase. Overall i enjoy the mode but I loved the Rey Mysterio focused one and the John Cena one last year was cool. The environments are lackluster bc they are still pandering to last gen! I feel like it's passed time for the yearly games to let go and push the current systems to the limit. I'm glad I'm hearing good things so far about this release tho. This might be the first before you buy that I haven't bought yet lol
Looking at Here comes the pain &
Day of Reckoning 2 on my shelf :,)
Peak.
This is the best WWE game since old THQ days
Like every year, its a Gamefly rental for me. 2K22 and 23 weren't much different. Besides new match modes. It looks like this one is no different. And they update the current roster and sprinkle a few more legends in. These games will never be anything without the legends!
Last wwe game I bought was 2k16,Now I'm still playing svr 2007 and hctp lol,I'll just wait for this to show up on fitgirl
They must make wwe games arcade not simulation like SMD vs RAW for the ps2
Wasted so much money on this. Online servers don't work at all. Kills me.

But it doesn’t have the old school wrestlers tho?
@@markanthony6026 It has legends for sure, just maybe not all the ones u wish it had or maybe not a specific variation u wanted.

2k24 is objectively a bad game. Nothing to do with muh nostalgia.
this game is great. feel like anyone saying otherwise and some people in the comments saying older games are better truly are just stuck in the past or hasn't played those games in a long time. nostalgia is a hell of a drug

It's a tedious game and not fun at all. HCTP had easy controls and was most importantly..FUN. 2K makes horrible games.

Myfaction needs a mode where you do towers with your friends or co-op multiplayer options
These games used to be so innovative with THQ. Now it’s the same ol same same ol copy and paste. Not worth buying at full price
THQ,it's in the name
Really? Because that is what they doing now THQ made good games and 2k struggle a lot to find what works and they finally cracked it really late with 2k22 and they keep innovating it add new match types adding new features this is what THQ did and that is what 2k to doing now
@@PlaystationConnectBS complete 2K didn't innovate by adding new match types those match types existed in older WWE games made by 'THQ Yukes' Until WWE 2K19. 2K own debut game WWE 2k20 made by 2K themselves was the most buggiest and glitchfest game ever.
They copied and paste the ideas from older WWE games from Yuke's nothing more!
THQ was only a publisher. It's Yukes that developed the WWE games from Smackdown 1 til 2K19. They did made AEW Fight Forever... Which is barebones.

Yes, but how are those loading times?
As a dude who loves wrestling way more than they probably should, I absolutely adore the simulation style over the arcady stuff.
Its alot of old bitter old heads saying they miss the old games when they could literally buy a ps1 or Nintendo and play them lol
The only big bug I have to complain about is on showcase it was the Rock vs Steve Austin 2002 I believe and it worked for a while but I noticed right off the bat there were two refs and two after a while when I went for the pin the ref would hit the mat twice at a time and wouldn’t count I was being pinned and I kicked out at like 8
I'm waiting for a content creator to update us on Universal mode. Also the submission animations. If the DL and UL features got any better, so the created characters I download aren't losing their attributes. In rival matches are the scenes randomly generated or do I still have to pick what I want to happen via R, P, S style. Everyone is talking around those things.
these new wrestling games looks visually better but the animations seems abit wierd despite of the current technology, it still has that feel of there is a hidden wall everywhere where characters like to stragely float awkwardly or turn in a unnatural way like jumping on the top buckle characters homing is wierd unlike the old games
Hopefully they can add more to the showcase
