@IronVonz sorry man I started in 08/ 09

[@deeward283]

Yea I was still watching but I really started losing interest around this time but I still watched wrestling for a few more years but this game and 08 with ECW added to the game was the last two wrestling games I bought paid for. After 08 it went down hill quick with every title after 08 and that says a lot about 08 that wasn’t nearly as good as 07. How bad as game developers do you have to be when two PS2 games out classed all the titles that came out for the next gen consoles. Don’t even get me started on the bullshit that came out on Xbox one and PS4 with the terrible 2K title games. I don’t think even make wwe wrestling games anymore because of the trash that came out with next gen consoles from the 360, PS3, Xbox one, and PS4. I was glad I had no regrets giving up playing these trash ass games. The controls were so much better on with 07 and even 08 and then they some how found a way to ruin every aspect of the games and made the controls just unusable and more complicated then needed when it perfect as it was with 07 and they changed it slightly with 08 on few things but still the same.

[@cornerstorevanni]

I lived in a pretty poor trailer park when I was younger and I was one of the only kids with an Xbox 360, and everybody used to come to my trailer after school to play saints row and shit, after alot of playing, well, my Xbox 360 red ringed, and all I had was my uncle's PlayStation 2, which he left me when he moved out of my grandparents house, I think you know where this is going.... This game right here, Backyard wresting with icp and shit, Madden 04 and gta San Andreas, became a weekend tradition for me and my friends. We used to make created characters in sdvr and then hold full tournaments against eachother for little bets like who would give whose lunch the next Monday and shit. No phones. No social media. Just meet up after school, or knock on a door, and play the PlayStation 2, me and my childhood friend Stan went as far as coming up with plans to both fake sick on the same day, and he would sneak over and we would just chill and play video games on the ps2 all day. Nostalgia is such a weird emotion, it makes me so happy yet so sad. I'm glad I was born pre social media, before everybody was a robot, don't get me wrong I love my social media and shit nowadays, but I'm just glad I didn't grow up with it. Couch co-op brought a group of poor ass kids together and we all just had a great time. Now you can barely find a fucking split screen game. I miss it all. Sometimes I just wanna go back to bumpin my mamas burnt rap CD's on my plug in radio, faking sick to skip school, boosie rap snacks, kool aid juices, and play station 2 with the friends I've lost contact with.

just found ur channel and i been binge watching it nonstop and it actually made me buy a ps3 again and i just ordered every wwe game from 2000 to 2013. great content brother keep grinding. as a huge wwe fan these videos are amazing and nostalgic

[@alec2000]

This is my brother’s favorite wwe game of all time. This was around the time my brother started to become a die hard wwe fan in 2006. This was when he watched it daily with our cousins and we still play this game, 06 and 08 today. He still remembers the controls and plays on legendary difficulty and wins every match and we remember the soundtrack to the top of our heads. That’s how much he loves this game and I love playing it with him, not to mention this is Chris Benoit’s last ever appearance in a game and I still miss him to this day. Can you please heart this comment, not for me, but for my brother? Please?

❤ For your brother

@Copper Colored it was not what I was expecting, but this may be the next big thing, a fan who is actually nice. Thank you so much man. It means a lot to see nice people on KZbin.

Seriously though, I remember my brother and I doing MITB matches and getting so sick of how long it was and we would work together to make sure one of us would win and not the CPU

[@LuffyDYami]

[@TheGoman21]

My cousins and I would do the same thing. At least let one of us have the glory not an AI who won't remember it tomorrow.

[@DennyBandz]

I use to lean the ladder on the other ladder than run up and put both analog sticks up andi would hang on the briefcase while simultaneously draining the briefcase meter, saved me from losing or having long matches

[@jcp6]

I remember after beating the superstar and legend challenges, and when the last challenge, Mickie James v Great Khali happened, I thought it was over. But I was so good with Rey mysterious in the game, I changed mickie James’ moveset to Rey’s, and pinned khali in like a minute in legend. Good times

[@ronnyfwea]

I still remember the first time my friend told me he didn’t catch the latest episode of Monday night RAW. I could feel times were changing. We never used to miss an episode.

[@RubyMVmistress]

My older brother was into wrestling so much, so it got me into the games. I never really watched the show. However, My brother gave me his copy of Shut your mouth and I fell in love with the games till as you said 2007. I really didn't have friends to play with since most girls my age didn't play games. However, for some reason I was still able to enjoy it by myself. PS2 is also one of my favorite, the super Nintendo comes really close. This was also the last game I got from Circuit city! Which was sad because, I like them a lot better than Best Buy.

[@jovincebrillantes1042]

The soundtrack made it even more legendary

[@LuisMartinez-jh6ps]

Couldn’t agree more with everything you said. I thought I was the only one that thought that this was the pinnacle of wwe games. You got me hooked with the soundtrack. So amazing

[@S80329099]

That SWEET CHIN by Shawn Micheals at 11:15 was EPIC

[@seantheman1886]

The soundtrack alone makes this game legendary. One of the best wrestling games ever. I still go back & play this every once in a while on the Xbox 360.

[@torrestheman_3808]

Forgive me is a odd song To have with a game with Chris Benoit

[@Acillatem23]

I am sad that I can’t listen to that song the same again

[@tyrekalexander6381]

Man I remember having the ecw invasion and tazz put me in the Tazz submission. Greatest story line ever on SVR 07. I miss both games soo much.

[@remsiiig4537]

Nah bro that's SVR 06 😅

Edge transforms the Boogie man when i play i had John Cena transform into a girl. I want SVR 2007 to make a remake, for the PS4 and Xbox One. 😭😭😭

If I had to pick one thing. The soundtrack. Hearing Three Days Grace was a damn blast the first time I played it since they're my favorite band

[@ice500]

Bro what you saying in your intro video fits my childhood till now and is chilling to know, there are ppl like me lol. I still watch old WWE videos and play the WWE games just for the old wrestlers and legends. Cheers

[@Jean_Pierre_Wehry]

Alive and Kicking by Nonpoint is still one of my favorite songs. This game had an absolutely legendary soundtrack.

[@LogicbyDesign]

My created character has the dopest entrance. Used to come out to “alive and kicking “ damn those were the days . We used to run weekly title defenses I held the intercontinental belt for two months straight lol

[@rogue728i]

I was actually addicted to this game i took it everywhere on my psp❤️

[@ariesmichaelsayan4013]

I agree with you. All these games that you mentioned we played hardcore as well. They were so much fun. I think “Here Comes the Pain” was my favorite but I loved all those games from 2002-2007. I got so many of my friends to play. They were so exciting and easy to learn. After 2007, I hated how they changed the controls and the mechanics. That ultimately was what made me lose interests in the games.

[@ViceGoat]

Back when friends had to come over and play with each other. Wish we could do it one last time like we did in the gold old days with not a care in the world.

[@Changa10]

This game was the best period of my Childhood, the most fun I have ever had playing a video game. The best Soundtrack by an absolute landslide, GM MODE!, and both sides of the Career mode were always a blast. Man, if it weren’t for this game I don’t know how my early years in my childhood would’ve gone...

I been playing this game recently, and honestly was playing for what felt like 15 minutes, but an hour had actually passed. I had so much fun replaying this game, since it was the first WWE game i played religiously. glad to see others enjoy it for the same reasons i did.

[@paulculster9372]

The best decade of wrestling ever - 1997 - 2007. The best era - ruthless aggression 2002 - 2007. It was my childhood too.

[@jp3813]

Gotta admit that I switched the controls back to the way it was in the previous game. It's weird how they made the likes of Rey Mysterio hurt themselves when trying to kick the likes of Eddie Guerrero. They could've at least given the Divas another exclusive match type. The commentary seems to be broken as well since they keep talking about wrestlers and moves that aren't even in the match. Also, perhaps my PS2 is getting old, but there's massive slowdown during Money in the Bank the more weapons get brought out. Still, great improvements were made overall. Nice to be able to use the cage as a weapon this time w/ the new animations for turnbuckle attacks. And I disagree about ladder matches taking longer to win. Maybe if you're playing one-on-one, but multiple competitors made the previous versions to be a matter of luck.
