Always noticed that Kanyon's rant had people talking in the background. Piper's was the best in my opinion. This musta been that period in Sting's life where he was struggling mentally cuz he was definitely phoning it in there.
Me and cousin one time changed everybody to the black and white nwo. We had a story where we used Chris Jericho and each person he beat had to leave the stable. It was a dumb idea but it was fun. ^_^ 😅
Greatest wrestling game roster ever! If only more stars from 1998 were added here (Dusty Rhodes, Yuji Nagata and referee Mark Curtis - missing guys from WCW/nWo Revenge + legends like Rick Martel, Jim Duggan, Warrior, Bam Bam Bigelow and Barry Windham, and maybe classic versions of Hulkster, Macho Man, Stinger and Scott Steiner) + SmackDown-like engine - men, this game would remain a masterpiece for all time!
I remember this game a old kid friend had it and we played and i remember a funny moment when i watched him play he raged so bad he threw his controller cuz of him losing!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
My edited game. Giant/WCW Saturn/Raven's Flock Chris Jericho/nWo Wolfpack Brian Adams/WCW Ultimo Dragon/nWo Black And White Chris Benoit/WCW Eddy Guerrero/Horseman Rey Mysterio/nWo Wolfpac Reese/nWo Black And White Miss Elizabeth/nWo Wolfpac Rick Fuller/Raven's Flock Psychosis/nWo Black And White Rick Rude/WCW Glacier/nWo Black And White
I was greatly disappointed when i got this game. Almost everyrhing sucked for me. That fast pace style also didnt help. No real stories. Entrance vid was short 5 or 6 sec clips if at that mightve been shorter of real footage from a thunder show. Even when you are at wargames or ww3 but that dam thunder set entrance. At least extend the intro to them showing a longer entrance. . Two things i liked was the intro vid when you put in the disk and when the camera switched to that side view like how it shows on 0:14. Models of the wrestlers was ok almost kinda like those old metal combat type or like that wwf wm arcade game. Knowing also that at that time best game was revenge and it was only for 64. It was what it was during that time for me I guess
Game may be pretty bad overall, but one cool idea it had was being able to change what group someone was in and how that would even change their attire.
Can someone explain to me why this game and nitro are hated but super fire pro wrestling is loved if both of them are two basically the same buttom combos to make wrestling moves?
This one is just incredibly stiff, slow and unresponsive. As in both the framerate and how that translates to how it controls. Smackdown 1 also came out shortly after and was just all around a better feeling + playing title.

This game is the reason why game rentals existed
Where blockbuster 5$ for five days ?
Rented it literally from BB in the UK, 1998. Was amazing
I was WWF or die. But this game is the only reason I knew most of the WCW guys before the “invasion”
Kevin Nash in WCW Nitro: Please pick me!
Kevin Nash in WCW/NWO Thunder: Forget about it! Go pick somebody else!
Even funnier, look who's to the left of him on the roster. Kevin wasn't pointing at his big picture to the left, he was pointing at Goldberg 😆
Roddy in front of a mic is like Picasso with a paintbrush and canvas
I know this game was bad but it was still a huge part of my childhood. I miss it dearly.
Fucking Kevin Nash did not wanna wrestle on thunder 😂 😂
@waluigifantoychicaac3588his quad should be in the hall of fame
@@brianshields7485for tearing up everytime or for how long it's lasted his career? 😂
neither did Sting lol - listen to his Nitro rant compared to this one
I appreciate Scott Norton's enthusiasm.
He turned pure babyface to me.
Only WCW would make horses, cows, gorillas, bugs and a skeleton playable in a wrestling game

Roddy Piper was always a class above everyone when it came to mic work. He just got it. I'd imagine it was one take to do this for him.
Too Bad the Gamyplay sucked, These videos were amazing as a kid I was so shocked we got these in a game when it came out.
I agree these two wcw game are super rough with the gameplay.
@@gamingona970 those 64 ones tho made up for it
Don’t pick Bagwell. He’s injured
3:16 I now understand why they gave Sting as little dialogue as possible, also hilarious they made Raven his own little Flock icon
His primo on nitro was 🔥. His Wolfpack days were bad for him personally. Drugs, etc. you could tell he didn't wanna do this at all lol
Perry Saturn's made me laugh out loud
I used to enjoy changed stables, I always put Raven in nWo.
Me and cousin one time changed everybody to the black and white nwo. We had a story where we used Chris Jericho and each person he beat had to leave the stable. It was a dumb idea but it was fun. ^_^ 😅
😂😂😂 good ol days of being young kids
Raven would’ve been perfect for the NWO!
sucks that la parka didnt get a promo
The Chairman
Chirs Benoit 's rant sounds like he is going to kill someone 😬
Or fart on someone
Brilliant 😅 love it
I don't think Scott Hall understands
no i imagine he didn't
Who did Buff sleep with, to get the 6'3 listing?! He is 5'11 tops. Even for billed heights, this is overinflated!
It was with Hulk
Neidhart got a rant but not Eddie?
Alex Wright with the ultimate baby face rant! Same with Jericho!
Gotta admit. The intro video was 🔥 tho

"Silent, but violent"
-Chris Benoit
The giant 7’4 540 lbs lol ok maybe 7’1 400
I really hope at least one person picked Scott Norton in this games existence.
Most of em threaten u for picking them lol
Scott Hall brilliant, your in trouble now you little punk, imma gonna rub your face in the mat 😂😂😂😂😂😂
The stable idea was the only good thing this had going for it
Best rants:
1. Piper
2. Nash
3. DDP
Most disappointing (because I was looking forward to it as a kid):
STING. This man did. not. care.
Yea. I could tell he was going thru some shit
I remember this game a old kid friend had it and we played and i remember a funny moment when i watched him play he raged so bad he threw his controller cuz of him losing!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
Ayo DDP was sayin some PAUSE stuff in his promo 😂😂😂
Why no one selected Tiffany Payne is a travesty.

That is a unique feature and I hadn’t thought of it that way.
If you pick Gorilla vs Gorilla in this game it suits the gameplay so much with the grunts 😂
Bryan Adams your typical WRASSLIN Promo... Geezus
Is that even a picture of Rick Rude? What’s up with that?
Can someone explain to me why this game and nitro are hated but super fire pro wrestling is loved if both of them are two basically the same buttom combos to make wrestling moves?

Who in the hell is Rick Fuller ? Lol
A behemoth of a jobber.
Man nostalgia wants me to love this game but nostalgia removed it's still so bad😅
I think it’s totally fine to acknowledge it’s a messy game and to have fond memories of it. Thank you for commenting :).
9:51 Who TF is that?
My uncle
raven is definitely not 6'1, maybe 5'10 with boots on.
i Rember playing WCW Nitro and thunder on ps2 glad ps2 let you play ps1 disc
13:38 “I can see me.”
Well now, isn’t that interesting in hindsight.
How do you unlock the nitro girls

Sting didn't give a shit
Facts
Billy Kidman >
A very hype intro for such a crap game.
Sting sounds completely bored, negative energy
DDP's intro would get him cancelled in this soft Democrat age of time.
Q
Sting zero charisma.
His other rant was way better. He seemed to not want to do this one
This game sucked
I don’t disagree. Cheaply made budget sequel to an already messy first game.
Never understood why they talk about beating you up and wasting you, but you're picking them to use. 😂😂
