I own this game for Xbox. For a time, I convinced myself that this game was okay. A below average but “it has potential.” Then, after many years, I regained a copy of Def Jam: Fight for NY. After playing some of that, I realized that FfNY is pretty much Backyard Wrestling 2 but with a development team that was worth a damn. Better controls, better career/story mode, better character creation suite, more moves and FAR less glitches among other things that put it over BYW2 easily. This game is trash, pure and simple, and I haven’t gone back to it since. Did enjoy the cutscenes, though. Poor Kelvin. 😂 EDIT: Oops! Almost forgot to mention that the G4 video included on the disc was my introduction to the channel so that was pretty cool, too.

I really appreciated you talking about the genuine enjoyment one can experience from a piece of art that has never been viewed positively, because that is exactly where I’ve always been at with WCW/nWo Thunder. As I’ve mentioned in the past, that game was my first serious dive into the world of professional wrestling, so, naturally, I have a lot of nostalgia associated with it. It’s honestly really funny to think that I started watching WCW because of a game that most people view as an undeniable piece of shit, but I legitimately don’t give a fuck 😂 I was a WCW kid before I had ever even seriously watched the actual product, and it’s all thanks to a subpar video game. I don’t know about anybody else, but I personally think that’s pretty cool 😊
