WWE 2K20 Story Mode is So Weird (Let's Play WWE 2K20 Career Mode)

[@schuylerdade]

"I regret to inform you, the game is bad," is the loveliest, Britishest way to put it.

[@katfromthekong414]

"Britishest" 😂👍

[@Paraludic]

"It's not torture if you're paying for it." Is that the developers trying to reassure those who paid for this game?

[@dannydanggang1675]

It's not torture if you don't have it and it's not torture if you pay for it. Either way you aren't getting tortured. It's genius.

[@mar_speedman]

Or maybe the game is designed to be played for free, but it'll actually be good if you pay for it? @_@

[@Gledster]

Also, they've MISSED the apostrophes!!! So frustrating...

[@mar_speedman]

@@Gledster I was too busy laughing at Andy and Mike's hilariousness. They really couldn't even do that right? lol

[@brendancskinner]

The balls some companies have, imagine thinking that charging $60 for this pos was okay.

[@AilinOGriobhtha]

It's selling for 70 euros so like closer to 80 dollars here, that said this looks like it's going to be amazingly terrible :D I'm low key tempted to use my microsoft reward points to get it for like 20 quid so I don't feel like i'm being robbed while also getting to experience the utter stupidity of it all first hand.

[@Canadian_Zac]

It would have been a lot better if they'd gone balls to the wall with this. Nobody's going to make normal looking characters, so they should have gone the Saints Row way. Just make everything over the top cheese and have fun with it. A character's hair being alive wouldn't look out of place in Saints Row.

[@RossWyatt]

I was going to buy the deluxe $90 edition, but I'm gonna just buy the regular version and the season pass later. This game looks great.

[@1981troyboy]

This game is terrible = We need OX to play this ;)

[@voltzoen6262]

"This was WWE2K20, a troubled game." - Andy being super generous for a man whose soul just has been crushed.

[@mar_speedman]

Considering he's not only interested in wrestling, but also *being* a wrestler, being forced to play as an idiot who's no good at wrestling who is barely trying to join the WWE roster... I can understand why his soul was just crushed lol

I think we need a series of Andy Mike and Jane playing this monstrosity of a career mode, please outsidexbox, this video cracked me up

[@usbiv223]

Andy: "I don't know what a petard is." Mike: "I think it's some sort of explosive." Of course you do, Mike. The fact that you are correct is incidental to my point.

[@CaitlinRC]

Lionface 2.0 still isn't as bad as Jane's NBA face scanner creation or nightmare fuel as I call it

[@gruggerduggerhoose]

Caitlin RC we do not speak of NBA face scan Jane...

[@varunchaturvedi2581]

Everyone else also calls it that. Or, at least, I do too...

[@Jambobist]

I think the game accidentally scanned Jane's dark, twisted soul.

[@generalmanyara]

Do you remember Wrong Jeremy?

[@NilmerGaming]

I would love to see a match of Nigthmare fuel Jane vs Lionface 2.0 ... do you think they can get it merged into one wwe game?

[@TheMicOnFireCuz]

"HEY Guys, looking human!" Lionface is really committed to that look.

[@itiswhatitisitiswhatitis5558]

Its actually not a bad game I enjoy ur and the graphics isn’t even that bad I had pre ordered the game so I know

[@PeacefulPagoda]

Oohhh, I see what happened. They spent all their budget on licensing real music (like Post Malone’s “Rock Star”) which left approximately $2.35 for developing the actual game. That explains everything.

[@Torthrodhel]

"It's not torture if you're paying for it." His recent wrestling dungeon search history disagrees.

[@PeacefulPagoda]

I love that this is just Everyone is High School Medusa: the Game. It’s like Monster Prom, but with more fighting.

[@davidwit7749]

Lionface is a super-pale beardy man, so my head canon is that he's Kratos just trying to make a living in 21st century America. Edit: I just heard his voice. That's no Kratos.

[@marcelodias2518]

Before the facial hair he looks like a Engineer from Prometheus.

[@Whywhywhyok]

‘SAY THINGS WHILE I SLAM RONDA ROUSEY’ - Andy 2019 Out of context is the best line PUT IT ON A SHIRT 😂😂😂😂

[@logansrevenge1214]

This game looks terrible. But Mike and Andy laughing constantly warms my heart.

[@ARTURIEL]

I've only heard of the phrase "hoist by my own petard" from your older videos and searched what it means. Petard is indeed a type of explosive, a small bomb, as Mike suggests. Oh, Mike and his explosives.

[@vitesify]

Hoisted by your own petard; surely no punishment more fit the crime?

[@AlistairP1993]

With how bad the faces are, we're not far off the return of Wrong Jeremy. For now though, you have to play as an undercover medusa

"You can't be disqualified in a falls count anywhere match" ...something tells me this was recorded before Hell In A Cell

That's always been the problem though. Falls count anywhere, No Holds Barred, No DQ, Street Fight, Hardcore have all come to meant exactly the same thing.

[@LegendarySquoth]

Wow, It's been over a decade since I last played a WWE game and somehow in all that time the graphics look like they have actually gotten worse. That's quite an achievement.

Are we seriously supposed to believe that Lionface was massive and had a full mane when he was in high school? I always imagined he became the wrestler he is today through some kind of "Captain America" experiment.

Nah, it was totally more of a Spiderman thing. Bitten by a radioactive lion!

[@TheLeninTrain]

7:36, Lionface is so shiny, he's giving Robert Pattinson a run for his money ps: the loading screen "its not torture if youre paying for it"... is that the mantra of the game itself?🤣

[@narcspector]

The mantra thing is exactly what I thought when I saw that. Like how did Mike or Andy not think of that joke? Lol

[@liam5627]

So I looked up the etymology of being hoisted by one's own petard: The word actually means "fart" in old French, but it's also the name of a small bomb used in the 16th C.
