How was this game underrated?!! When this game was release 2002, everyone was talking about it at my school. Even the guys that didn’t watch wrestling much was into this game. This one and shut your mouth was a huge hit for me and my friends. So I’m not sure what this guy meant by “underrated”. One thing for sure is that I’ll play this game over any 2k WWE games today. Word life!
In terms of the best wrestling games ever made, here comes the pain, no mercy and all stars are always brought up constantly. Whereas SYM is never really mentioned in that conversation even though it’s just as good as any of those other games. That’s why I think it’s underrated
Shut Your Mouth had the best Season mode in my opinion it went on for 6 years and if you won every title in the game you'd be in every match on the card when it was time to do the PPV.
sym only had a 2 year season mode and then it defaults back to the default champions. that was the only issue really about the game. hctp although has only one year in season mode but it keeps the champions as the way before the season ended and it gives you more exploring opportunities for the season to explore other stories that you haven't done, kind of giving it unlimited stories.
My favorite wrestling game of all time. I still think Here Comes The Pain is the best one they've ever put out, but SYM has a special place in my heart. The roster, the story mode, the soundtrack, the gameplay, the time period. Everything rocks!!! Glad to see it get some recognition!!
@@I_Am_The_Social_Reject I can agree in that way, but I feel the gameplay really improved. With it, Yukes formed the basis for the Smackdown vs Raw games going forward. Every move connects perfectly. Shut Your Mouth is still my favorite but I really feel the gameplay in Here Comes the Pain is it's strong suit.
But it is what it is. Different strokes for different folks. Regardless, I'm glad you like SYM so much as well. It's a shame it isn't more appreciated.
@@mattsetzer The game play upgrades don't really replace content that keeps me playing. If Shut your mouth was massively worse then yeah I could see it. Smackdown Vs Raw was a massive downgrade in several ways. Then 2006 was back to being amazing. Then 2007 had one of the worst season mode ever since Just Bring It. Almost 50% text. Like that's how WWE storylines play out. Then 2008 was bad but in a different way. But gameplay was improved. But didn't make up for boring 247 mode. Then 2009 happened and I was done
This guy is fucking hilarious and he is so underrated. Mate you're on the way. You'll have a million subs one day. I'm spreading the word about you mate
It wasn’t underrated. I grew up playing this and it became a great success. I’m 28 and remember every bit of it. Then Here Comes The Pain followed afterwards.
It is kind of underrated (or overlooked) in a sense as the go to ps2 wrestling games are generally HCTP/SVR/SVR06/SVR07. That is the case nowadays obviously, back in the day this game was the business
My favorite part of this video was you playing as The Rock attacking Vince McMahon in the game and beat him up backstage and all over the arena! And I love the clip you put in the video where Vince tossed himself over the belcony rail, landing on the mat and putting "You Are Dead" after that! No! Vince! WHY?! LOL XD
I've always played this over Here Comes The Pain because of the many opportunities in Season Mode that can happen with just about ANY wrestler somewhat. Especially since it adds 2 years in Season Mode instead of one which honestly shocked the hell out of me.
In *Season mode* there is a storyline where the rival GMs (Vince and Flair) join forces, go on a power trip and take the tag team titles. Then it’s your job to find a partner to take down the bosses and re-cap the titles. You can pick from a selection of guys backstage BUT if you already have a team created you can choose that partner. I made a team with Vince for the lols and there he was in the locker room. So I chose him, and then Vince and i went on to challenge Vince and Flair for the championships. Yes, there were 2 Vinces in the ring. Yes, i broke the game. And yes, it was awesome. Great video btw ^^
This was my first game for the WWF when I knew anything about it, I was introduced to No Mercy before I had any idea about wrestling. And let me tell you, the draft itself was great, the roster, gameplay, story, just great. And I think it’s where I started giving my main CAW Super Saiyan hair and it last for years. A VERY long time. Love it, man.
Just discovered this channel by random luck. Amazing content. Severely underrated. It may take a while for you to upload, but it's worth the wait when it's this high quality! Looking forward to seeing more from you in the future.
Man this game is just endless fun! While I do understand here comes the pain is more better and popular, shut your mouth is definitely one of the more fun games in the series and sometimes can be more fun than here comes the pain at points. Love your videos, mate.👍
I was like 6-7 years old when this game came out and still have vivid memories of playing it to this day. Man I miss how wrestling used to be 🥲 this game and a few that came after were amazing. What a time
I like the sound effects you put in the wwe games like the goofy scream an the snake scream from metal gear solid. Those made me laugh at certain parts of ur videos like the glitches on wwe games. Dude you deserve million subscribers. You also tell the truth about how bad the 2k games are an you test out the games. Thank you dude now I know wwe2k2020 is the worse game.
It’s astonishing how todays wrestling game can’t get it right. They focus too much on realism. Wrestling isn’t real, it makes no sense treating it like a real fighting game. The old games understood that we wanted fun games where we could do extreme stuff like jumping out of helicopters, off of the stage, and put people through tables. Todays game focus on how to appease the IWC and Meltzer with 5 start matches and pretending to be Vince with running the show.
Its underrated nowadays, as it never comes up in conversation. But when it came out, it was like the DEFINITIVE wwe game. And i actually enjoy it more than here comes the pain just because of how chaotic it could get. Loved the season mode. Loved the roster.
Love SD SYM. Remember looking up the CAW for that game. Liger, cactus Jack, samoa joe, punk. Great times. Like Nas , I love to take a trip down memory Lane
Smackdown 4 has the best roster in the history wrestling gaming. The only fuck up is that Goldberg wasn’t included and Ultimate Warrior should have been a secret playable character.
They used to be good when THQ and Jacks/Yukes were the ones making them. IMO 2K just hasn’t compared since then. That’s why HCTP is still the best ever. And SVR are well loved as well. The smackdown games prior to HCTP are good too. Those games are what set the tone going forward, learning from mistakes and adding the right features.
Smackdown Shut Your Mouth was the first wrestling game I ever owned and it is my all time favourite. I’m so glad you were able to do this game justice! I actually skipped HCTP and didn’t actually play it until 2009/2010. The two of them respectively are the best wrestling games produced on the PS2. The main reason is the charm and style behind the game. Not to mention every character has a specific move set and everyone plays completely different! I just discovered your channel and the amount of work and commentary is fucking great man. 10/10 can’t wait to hear you review more Wrestling games. You gotta do Day of Reckoning.
Shut your mouth was my first owned wrestling game to , but bro you missed out on hctp once I played it at a friends house I had to get for my self was that good lol
@@youngcity4241 oh I know I did! I went back and played it when I was older lol. SYM and HCTP are my all time favourites. SvR is just a little too slow and 2006+ started messing with everyone’s move set. Characters started playing the exact same, something the newest games are awful for.
IMO 2k games don't suck because of glitches if anything that makes it hilarious. What makes it suck it’s just the gameplay itself even when it’s running perfectly.
I was blown away Christmas morning when I first played SYM. I had been playing just bring it the whole previous year. Shut your mouth changed wrestling games forever.
First time I came across your channel saw my self subbing within 60 seconds bro I was laughing and really enjoying the editing and style !! Great personality look forward to binging to your videos!
I love the fast pace gameplay and messing around in the backstage is a bonus. Just not worrying about much and only having reflexes to work with, is just fun.
I actually lost this game like 17 years ago and found it the other day i played the shit out of it as a kid and now im playimg the shit out of it now its still really fun and good i also like the character customization
My favorite part of this game was being able to wander around the arena and in the streets and start fights. Kinda like a mini gta world and it’s never been done before
First wrestling game I owned. My first cousin gave this to me, along with Dragon Ball Z Budokai, when I was in South Carolina. Awesome game! Also, Charles, if you're reading this, congratulations! Where's the wedding?
Man you were 2? You missed amazing eras in wrestling. I went to WM X8 live. I also went to the Backlash were HBK and "God" vs Shane and Vince. Among countless house shows and a Raw and Smackdown TV taping.
SYM is definitely Underrated. It paved the road for HCTP. I loved the 360 spin camera flash on Finishers. Every game has it's flaws but this was a fun game that had a lot to offer.
I remember being nervous when I first booted this game up in my PS2 because I was worried that it would completely blow ass like Just Bring It. Suffice to say, it was a huge relief when I played it and it was actually good.
and thus concludes facts that 20 odd years ago, things were better. I don't just say this because I'm almost 40 and don't understand anything anymore I say this because... where was I?
The term “underrated” gets thrown around way too much. Overshadowed, maybe under appreciate but definitely not underrated. Compared to the other games, it’s properly rated.
I agree with you in all points yo, but wrestling aside, your comedy alone had me in tears (I’m also high) but that alone earned me a like, good shit bro😂😂🙌🏾
I played season mode all night running around the cities and backstage areas all night getting into the storylines (was usually Stone Cold) this game was so damn fun
I remember the first time I played it I called my Dad in the room and we both stared in awe at the crowd thinking "How can the graphics get better than this?" ... oh what a time to be alive lol
My dad bought me this game at a yard sale along with a signed autograph by hulk hogan when I was maybe 8 years old, had a blast with this game but never played hctp, I didn’t even know it existed until I saw the intro for SVR
Graphics of shut your mouth looks more realistic than HCTP and SVR imo. Like this game genuinely looks almost like a real life broadcast because of the artstyle. Only other game that manages to look this good is SVR 2006 [rest of the ps2 sequels after that got downgraded with each iteration]. HCTP doesn't look bad by any means either. But it simply didn't look realistic. Anyway, the overall art style, wrestler models and gameplay of these ps2 era games were so good. Gameplay on current wwe games feels like an unresponsive mess in the name of "simulation". The graphics while having high quality assets, looks so off [see how horrible the hairs in every wrestler look on WWE 2k15 onwards compared to even Ps2 wwe games, wrestler faces also looks horrible compared to ps2 and gamecube wwe games to the point where they actually look inferior to SVR 2006 and Day of Reckoning 2]. Shut your mouth, HCTP also had 60 fps cutscenes and entrances, which are more broadcast accurate [something that's still not a thing on current wwe games with their 30 fps cap in entrances and other cutscenes].
Bravo, Alex Webb! Encore! Encore! I love your video on WWF Smackdown: Shut Your Mouth for the PlayStation 2 and I hope you do a video on WWE All Stars soon enough!
i have NO IDEA why they changed the season mode to that crap we have now, like, really, why? the fact that you could create your own character and do the road to wrestlemania was so cool and the stories was great, i played them all, every year the stories got better and better
I don’t care how much people love Here Comes the Pain, Shut Your Mouth will always be my favourite Smackdown game. It was such an insane step up from Just Bring It that it feels like there was a multi year gap between the two games.
Browsing RUclips is a lot like Minecraft (hold on, i'll explain) You just roam around empty caves and find dead ends, which in this case - are RUclips channels - and leave with less than you went in with. Then you find that one diamond hovering over a sea of Lava. This channel is that diamond.
I got this game late and never grew up with HCTP, this game lasted me years and years probably until I got SVR 2006, and still then I played it over, and to this day I’ll run story mode with new characters and still feel as though there’s more interactions/pathways to experience. The only perfect 10/10 wrestling game, over HCTP , better story mode unlockables and roster, and actually has commentary!
It’s funny that you bring up the moves that just throw people out of the ring, cause I just started utilizing those way more often in HCTP, specifically that Powerbomb you were using. Good stuff 💪🏻

I think the person is talking about in the long run what games get mentioned , but your not wrong in elementary/middle school this game was a huge hit
word MOTHER FREAKIN' life...
@@AlexWebb101 i dont think all stars also isnt worth mentioning though.. same sentence as hctp and nm. ill gladly insert 06 as runner up instead.
I created a taunt and called it the “Backflip, robot, smoke a bowl.” It looked exactly how it sounds

My favorite WWE games on PS2 Smackdown SYM, SVR 06 and 07
YES, finally someone gives this game praise. Always had a blast playing this with my friend at his house when I was younger, good memories
Everyone gives this game praise though lol. Maybe not as much as HCTP but not far behind
The game was well received when it came out. What are you saying? Every pro wrestling fan who had this back then loved it.

Why I didn’t care for here comes the pain season mode so much. I had more fun running around and exploring in shut your mouth
I remember the first time I played it I called my Dad in the room and we both stared in awe at the crowd thinking "How can the graphics get better than this?" ... oh what a time to be alive lol

Shut your mouth, HCTP also had 60 fps cutscenes and entrances, which are more broadcast accurate [something that's still not a thing on current wwe games with their 30 fps cap in entrances and other cutscenes].
This was always my favorite old school wrestling game I know everyone loves hctp but they clearly ain't know their role
we have been blessed with a new amazing video

i have NO IDEA why they changed the season mode to that crap we have now, like, really, why? the fact that you could create your own character and do the road to wrestlemania was so cool and the stories was great, i played them all, every year the stories got better and better
Its cause its too much work and effort for them and they know people will buy whatever they release no matter how bare bones it is

I don’t care how much people love Here Comes the Pain, Shut Your Mouth will always be my favourite Smackdown game. It was such an insane step up from Just Bring It that it feels like there was a multi year gap between the two games.
Browsing RUclips is a lot like Minecraft (hold on, i'll explain)
You just roam around empty caves and find dead ends, which in this case - are RUclips channels - and leave with less than you went in with.
Then you find that one diamond hovering over a sea of Lava. This channel is that diamond.
My favorite wrestling game, I'd play royal rumble mode with friends for hours on weekends.
Never seen your channel before....... Art attack reference, you just earned a sub my friend.
The smoothest F-5 you'll ever see in a wresting game 😁
And in my opinion brock entrance is way better than hctp
I got this game late and never grew up with HCTP, this game lasted me years and years probably until I got SVR 2006, and still then I played it over, and to this day I’ll run story mode with new characters and still feel as though there’s more interactions/pathways to experience. The only perfect 10/10 wrestling game, over HCTP , better story mode unlockables and roster, and actually has commentary!
Can you make a video on wwf no mercy I would love to hear your take on that game.
My favorite Scotsman 😂 Keep up the good work (Ps Shut your mouth is my favorite WWE game)
Just watching the lil animations between jokes and points is hilarious😂😂😂had to sub just off that
It’s funny that you bring up the moves that just throw people out of the ring, cause I just started utilizing those way more often in HCTP, specifically that Powerbomb you were using. Good stuff 💪🏻
This video is fucking gold. I laughed so damn hard at the goofy sound bit when booker T jumps and the big chungus
