That's what happens when you have hard yearly releases. Plus 2K also has the NBA license as well so they consider that more of a priority which is why they feel more polished, at least compared to the WWE games.

[@alyannasir9608]

@@Smacktalks I'm a hctp modder

[@CrossfacePanda]

The lack of commentary was honestly a good thing. Not only did you not have to put up with commentary getting old after just a couple of days of playing, as is usually the case, but it also kept better parity between CAWs and in-game wrestlers. It also made Season Mode more immersive, as having repeated commentary that doesn't mention any of the ongoing story can really take you out of it. Lack of voice acting also allowed them to put a greater amount of variety into Season Mode in general, as it's easier to put in a lot of different text based scenarios that also reuse existing animation, than to have to bring people in to voice act everything (also allows them to make quick changes deep into development, which in and of itself allow them more time to add more stuff). What I'm trying to say is: more wrestling games should skip on using any voice acting (outside of wrestler grunts and crowd noise, obviously). It simply makes for a more flexible and less repetitive experience, and makes the game less restrictive on the dev side, too.

[@tevinfw]

I disagree

[@TheBillliantOne]

I admit that was one of my few problems with HCTP, along with the lack of ring announcing, and some of the CAW features and original entrances from SYM being taken out.

[@thegameplayelite2]

"New option of being able to visit the GM's office." You could do the same in Smackdown: Shut Your Mouth except it was the VIP Room and you talked to either co-owner Flair or McMahon with the SP, title shot, and trade options the same.

[@joejohnson4613]

What i liked the most about the game is that the gameplay was fair. Lesser characters would get hurt easier and submit faster then better characters but if you had skill and you timed it right you could still consistently counter. We got to a point where we usually just random selected our characters because you still had a shot.

[@johnnyesmond9176]

OJH for jeff hardy was actually legit! i do enjoy his movements

[@edoishere]

Good video overall, two things though; the create an animation and the ability to meet with your GMs during season mode were not new to HCTP, but SYM. However HCTP did introduce asking for a brand change as SYM only allowed to ask for title shots or to check you SP.

[@gripedreality3347]

It wouldn't be hard to do a remaster of HCTP update the graphics, add the current roster while having as much of the roster from the original that they can have in it with wrestlers that were in the original having attires of what they look like today, more match types, more arenas, overhaul the creation stuff, and maybe have a Ruthless Aggression Era vs Modern Era mode

I loved the gameplay and season mode in these games. If I want anything out of a new WWE game I would want a season mode with the creativity of Here Comes the Pain’s Season mode, I would want the gameplay style as well as the Camera Cuts like we had in Here Comes the Pain, I would want GM Mode to return for the more seasoned players, I would want Story Designer back, I would want Universe Mode to feature the ability to assign any Superstar as a GM of any Show (even created ones), I would want to see the storylines made by the devs, I would want the ability to make our own stories as well as a way of implementing those stories into Universe for Rivalries, I want tournaments in Universe, I want Custom Music back, and FINALLY I would want a fully fleshed out roster where people are not being removed with live updates from the devs for things like new attires, new moves, new trons, and new entrance animations.

[@ezrabaramuli9219]

Hmm...facinating, but I think you forgot 1 glitch. You may aware if you try Eddie “rope splash” (I forgot the real name). It made you stand outside the ring, if you’re attacked during outside the ring (Cage Match, Iron Man Match, any match that keep you inside the ring exclude Royal Rumble). While you’re outside, you could take any weapon and throw it to the ring.

[@HixxyDubz]

i still think to this day wwe smackdown 2 know your role was the best, the season mode was perfect and the create a superstar was perfect, though shut your mouth and just bring it were pretty amazing too.

There's a glitch where a referee wins a first blood match. To do it play a first blood match as someone who's finisher is a Powerbomb (Undertaker, Kane or Batista work). When your head health is red, attempt your Powerbomb finisher. He will counter with a DDT and make you bleed. The match ends and shows a full victory animation where the ref has his hand raised by another ref! I've only done this in Exhibition mode, no idea what would happen in season mode.
