(Video) The Making of WCW Thunder (PS1) (Playstation Underground 3.1 - Dec '98)

[thenatural]

We played this at my homies house on his birthday. After awhile we were like fukk this game let’s just go outside shyt was trash.

Those little character select vignettes were cool tho.

There was only 2 good WCW games. WCW vs. NWO and WCW vs. NWO Revenge.


This was the first wrestling game I owned.

Me too but I thought the game play was okay. It was just basic as shyt.

 

[THE 101]

WCW vs the World was pretty good.

It was sorta the precursor to the N64 classics

Closest we've got to a major studio puro game. The roster was lit.

War Zone gets a pass cause it was the first 3D WWF game and nostalgia. Attitude doesn’t get that same luxury plus THQ/AKI hit Acclaim with the “you made it a hot line, I made it a hot song” when they dropped WrestleMania 2000 on the 64 2/3 months later

WCW vs the World gets a pass also cause it’s the grandpa of the n64 AKI engine

 

[Hey_zeus]

War Zone, Nitro, and Thunder were all trash

Don't forget Attitude and the ECW games

 

[Kidd Dibiase]

AKI/Yukes solely going to WWF ruined the future of WCW games





what could've been

 

[Flex Luger]

Don't forget Attitude and the ECW games

shyt forgot about those. Those ECW games were just War Zone and Attitude with ECW skins

 

[FakeNews]

I actually liked Attitude and WCW Mayhem when they came out

I don't remember this game but man this shyt takes me back to my childhood and simpler times. All the old PlayStation wrestling games and obviously the n64 one. Feel like wrestling games kind of sucked for a little after n 64.

. I remember seeing this game inside a Best Buy and getting it. One of the biggest disappointments lol. Thank goodness for smack down on the PS though

Nah Thunder sucked the gameplay was slow af

WCW Mayhem

mayhem was better than the thq shyt wcw had. Backstage assault

 

[THE 101]

Man Mayhem and Backstage Assault perfectly lined up with how bad WCW fell off as a company.

Went from greatness to garbage very quickly.

 

[Eastside Get The Money]

It was OD clunky

All the playstation games were the trash back then.

Only game somewhat playable was WCW Mayhem

 

[Killer Instinct]

In the minority but I enjoyed these I was super young and was just happy to be squashing Alex Wright with Goldberg and Sting

 

[Tommy Fits]

Did WCW have any good games for the original PlayStation ? And I will not stand for the warzone and attitude revisionist bullshyt slander. Both those games were decent games and insanely popular until the N64 games came out. And with attitude the roster and match options were the most we had ever seen from any wrestling game at that point

fatality combos to do a finisher in Warzone.
