    WWF Attitude, the sequel to WWF War Zone, was the last WWF game that Acclaim devleoped and published. Released in 1999 after multiple delays, Attitude was made available for the PS1, N64, GameBoy Color and Sega Dreamcast.
    WWF Attitude used the same engine found in War Zone but an expanded roster and a superb amount of match types made the sequel much more appealing. Updates were made to the create a wrestler mode while the single player career was completely changed to give players a much more matches to complete and more championship belts to claim.
    This video looks at every version released but the main focus is on the PlayStation 1 version. Also included is a look at the WWF Attitude PS1 Prototype that includes the Blue Blazer costume template.

    Adored this game back in the day. Made memory cards overflowing with CAWs, everything from WCW wrestlers to comic book heroes, then my friends and I would set up whole PPVs and Rumble matches and leave all the wrestlers on CPU. It was like getting to book our own federation and then watch it play out, cheering for the CAWs you made and booing the ones you didn't. To this day, the first thing I check in any new wrestling game is if it'll let you set all wrestlers to CPU, in the hopes of recreating that magic.

      No this came out when he was already a face but the game was originally supposed to release in March that year when the rock was heel at the time but got delayed and was supposed to release in June but got delayed again until finally in August when it finally came out

    I absolutely loved creating a wrestler and being able to do only like 20% of the moves because of the insanely complicated and ridiculous button combinations which were only compounded during the heat of a match. We always had to pause the menu to quickly memorize the moves list. THQ/AKI definitely ran the wrestling world with their WCW/WWF (and Virtual Pro) wrestling games.

    I used to own the ps1 version infact I started out with the ps1 version way back in around the year 2000 when I first played it but I decided to just stick with the n64 version because I don't have to wait for loads I never knew the n64 version existed until a few years ago but found it was better for me because didn't have to wait for loads to be honest I don't even know what the dream cast is probably before my time or just didn't grow up with it

    Honestly, I think the Language and blood settings were one of the best things added. It allowed you to drastically change your experience. I mean, I enjoyed both versions but it's awesome that it was an option. It'd be great if newer games used this and based it on the console parental controls. I wish WWE itself would return to the Attitude Era mindset - have RAW be risque and leave Smackdown to be family friendly.
    Additionally, Attitude offered much more in regards to style. You can easily tell whether you're playing Attitude vs War Zone just like Wrestlemania 2000 or No Mercy. Tbh, being able to claim that you can so easily identify the game by the style seriously says something about the game. If you masked the differences in characters between several of the Smackdown! games, you'd be hard-pressed to truly tell the difference.

    I had a blast playing stable matches & Royal Rumbles back in the day. I didn't quite get (at the time) the hate for the controls, seeing as how Mortal Kombat & other games have combination controls & nobody has a problem with it. I used to be such an MK fan when I was a kid I knew all the moves for many of the characters. These days when trying to play it, I have to pause it to look at the move list every time.
    Yes, I do get now why these types of controls are hated, but games like Mortal Kombat should honestly be just as scorned as well for the same reasons.
