Only thing Raw 2 had over everybody was the customization with the rosters and your created rosters and the entrance music, you can literally download your own entrance music to the game nobody was doing that at the time
And leave the ring during a Royal Rumble by going through the ropes. NEVER EVER DONE to this very fucking DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ong I miss this shii that what made me join Xbox bc u can add it own music wish they go bk to that
@MidnightPodcastGaming Yeah, this game was my favorite on Xbox because of shit like that. How the hell does this game *STILL* have the best RR mechanics in any WWE game
@@MidnightPodcastGaming nah facts I used to do that all the time to grab a weapon and bring it back in lol
Even the season mode had lil stuff that was dope that todays games don’t have like the fact that you can manipulate different wrestlers, backstage,and set them up you can talk to different divas and try to hook up with them
Man this use to be all I had as somebody who grew up with Xbox, till I copped a PS2 later on .
Same
All I had was this and wm21
Should of stayed with xbox
@@robertmedora6938Nah, PS2 had a better WWE games than Xbox has. Why should he stayed with Xbox besides Halo games?
THQ and Yukes had wrestling games on lock
They need the license back thq Nordic is a different company tho so probably won't happen
The Raw games on Xbox weren't made by Yukes. Yukes only made the Playstation and Gamecube games at that time. Raw and Raw 2 were made by Anchor Inc. Then Xbox had WrestleMania 21 made by Studio Gigante. All 3 games were published by THQ though.
10000% 👌💯
@@williambrulip512he probably knew that already , but I dont blame you for clarifying it is a common misconception
Raw 2 wasn't better than HCTP, but it did some amazing things for that time. They nailed the atmosphere of what WWE was at the time, the customization options were unprecedented, and the story mode was entertaining af. I had a blast with it!
The nostalgia is kickin in i use play the hell out of wwe raw and wwe raw 2 among others like smackdown shut your mouth just bring it here comes the pain man our childhoods was the greatest 💯
You and Tray gotta play Smackdown here comes the pain
I played all the versions of these games the best ones were on ps2 than GameCube than Xbox but all three were unique and different i wished it was still like this
In Raw 2 Xbox, I can easily defeat Brock Lesnar by choosing Trish Stratus. Why is the CPU worse than the PS2 CPU?
I wish they would at least duplicate to some degree what they had with the campaign in this game, it was fun even though it was weird for a wrestling game.
I just keep saying this on every 2k video I watch and someday it may happen.
Trying to drop crates on people again.
25:15 yo somebody gotta tell Edge to chill tf out 😭
Awesome video. That intro song to raw was everything when I was growing up in the early 2000s.
When the lines is blinking red you have your finisher grapple then hit a and x for the special
3:55 Yeah XBOX had the RAW games, Gamecube had the Wrestlemania games (at first) and Playstation had the Smackdown games, but then it got switched where XBOX got a Wrestlemania game super late, then Gamecube got Day of Wreckoning games instead.
The consensus tiers for the games at the time was always 1) PS2 game 2) Gamecube games 3) XBOX games. But I always felt like Gamecube had more risks taken with their wrestling game, that made them more enjoyable.
PS2, Xbox and GameCube had their exclusive basketball games too. Interesting times.
@@DamesLoveDameFactss NBA street v3 on GameCube had Mario Luigi and peach exclusively
The PS2 games were the best during them days, although the ones on the GameCube were pretty good especially DoR 1&2.
@@sinceredroga2152 Nintendo had nba courtside with kobe bryant games. Xbox had NBA inside drive and PlayStation had their nba series. All while 2K and ea was doing their thing as well
Saga had 2k at first @@DamesLoveDame
The comment section here is proof that given enough time, tons of people will nostalgically look back on literally ANY game fondly no matter how shitty it is. Seriously… Raw 2 was fucking garbage with some of the stiffest gameplay and weirdest animations I’ve ever seen in my life.
Nah, it's because a lot of people, like myself, didn't own a Playstation and had limited options when it came to certain games
You know Herb Dean is the Black ufc referee with Dreadlocks
I swear Ricky gonna keep saying that now to troll lol, I said the same on on the Legends of Wrestlemania video. He's gonna make "Is that HERB DEAN?!" A meme.
😂😂😂😂😂 I’m sitting here high asf thinking “I know DAMN WELL HE AIN’T CALL EARL HEBNER HERB DEAN”😂😭 shit got me over here crying
It wasn’t better than HCTP but RAW 2 allowed you to update wrestlers attires and entrance music …In that category it was the best of 03’ wrestling games
24:10 did Cena land on his feet yo????????? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
This game was definitely slept on I used/still play this game a lot!
Bruh feel the same emotion watching this stuff with my brother as well so many great memories
This is why I watch this channel! Literally my childhood! Spent countless hours
I remember you can create Jeff Hardy, all his moveset and cosmetics are in the game including his entrance
Just yesterday was gonna ask you to play this and then bow you already on it you the goat bro keep em coming 🔥💯
I like both WWE raw 2 and smackdown here comes the pain wow brings you back indeed.
Without watching the video or playing the game, I'ma say NO!
Yesssir ANOTHER ONE 🔥🔥🍾!! W Vid Ricky 🔥 Stay blessed my brother 🤞🏾
This was definitely one of the best raw intros
New sub continue the story line boss thank you for these good childhood memories
Day of reckoning is cool. My memory says this game played terribly
At the time if you only had an xbox it was the best game, but yeah nowadays it´s kind of clunky and the IA sucks sometimes
Call Earl Hebner Herb Dean ONE MORE TIME RICKY ITS GONE BE ON LIKE DONKEY KONG
CLASSIC I REMEMBER PLAYING THIS IN BLOCKBUSTER WITH MY BROTHER WHILE WAITING FOR MY STEPDAD GETTING MOVIES TO RENT😎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
So many little patches that can be applied by us though customization. Like Triple H’s entrance you can fix the water part by the ropes by placing custom pyro in his mouth lol
This game is janky as hell. But season with friends is one of the most fun things you can do. Creating characters and adding new ones at the end of the season, Fighting for multiple title matches in a night, choosing who gets which title, TAG TEAM. It's so dope
the raw intro is legendary broo
Datz cool, I got the game as well. 😄👍 I want to know, which button do you click to grab weapons under the ring??
Man I found my new favorite channel 🤣😤🙏🏻💪🏻
what if i told you that Raw 2 was unfinished!! but we played all of the wrestling games religiously and we still do through Net play on emulators. if you're ever tryna catch a fade hmu!! we even have our own federation
It honestly was better than here comes the pain although they both are great in their perspective way
Had an Xbox, Raw 1 and 2 were awful. My friend had a PlayStation and the storyline was incredible, just the feel of the game, interaction, belts blew Raw games out. PlayStation’s Smackdown games were all the best from Smackdown 1 to HCTP.
Oh and you can't really do a walkthrough in RAW 2 because it doesn't have an actual story and the season doesn't end.
I was a Sony/Smackdown guy personally. But my friend had the RAW games & the XBox. That game was actually wild fun to play with a bunch of people. But the hit boxes were pretty bad, & it felt too much like it was trying to be a better No Mercy
Pls keep doing your thing fam big ups
I used to start the game over for the intro 😂😂😂😂😂
Just to lyk the different refs count at different speeds
HCPT was miles better, but I still enjoyed playing Raw 2. It was so fun using custom music for entrances.
I played this game religiously. I had a PSX and a Xbox and most wrestling games were on PlayStation 2. Xbox in my case had Raw 2, Enter the matrix and Hitman
Good old days
Simple answer - No. But it was still a fun game.
what emulator or platform yall use to get this
Gotta play the story of day of reckoning 1 and 2
Those moving match cards just hit different back then 😏
Loved and played the hell out of Raw 2 growing up. Me and my cousins loved wrestling and would play whatever we got our hands on in the genre. Raw 2 is considered to bad by a lot of people because it's always compared to games like Smackdown.
Me and oldest brother would stay up almost every night playing this until like 6am sometimes 8am lol best times
Damn it seems like you still got your old systems I need to get back me the old systems too
Same on My bedtime was at 8:30 to 9 on school days on Mondays I would sneak and stay up and watch till 10 then go to sleep 😂 good times
Lmao my weekends was lit we up all night with it
Love the content watch you all the time
Where can I find this game and can I play it on Xbox series
Nothing better than WWE Smackdown HCTP but WWE Raw 2 was another classic I be up for hours playing it now u make me wanna cry 👍🏼
Used to play it in the mornings every weekend I miss that feeling
@@marcusjug21 fo sho mane 👍🏼
Man i never seen these Wrestling Games 💯💯💯
lets get it on 😭
I ❤ Raw 2 I Played The Hell Out Of This Game Back In The Day! It’s Not The Best Wrestling Game It’s Not The Worst Neither I Love How U Can Change The Wrestlers Moves And Clothes And Add Custom Songs To Your Creations Players I’ve To Re Buy RAW 2 O Love How Finishers Feels
I had the first raw game on my Xbox but never played the second raw game
Raw 2 doesn't beat here comes the pain but it'll always beat the first raw game why would u only have one raw arena for every match like add some flair add SmackDown,all the ppvs,just only the raw arena nothing else made it a fail
You played an hour of this? OMG.. Who hurt you?
Dawg triple H was gettin bodied 😂
And you haven't even seen anything of the game in that video. As someone who grew up with all 3 franchises ( the PS2 games, Xbox games, and Gamecube games ) . I can tell you that, Raw 2 was, by far, my favorite ( ahead of HCTP, which was my number 2 ) . Keep in mind that Raw 2 released in 2003. On many aspects, Raw 2 was a lot better than the others.
Want some examples ? Here we go.
First, the most obvious, we had custom entrance themes ( already in the 1st Raw game too ) . Meanwhile, PS2 clearly didn't had that. Had to wait for SvR 2007 on X360 ( released in 2006, so 3 years after Raw 2 ) to get that feature in the SD series. And since SvR 2007 didn't release on PS3, that means Playstation players had to wait 1 more year to get it in SvR 2008, being the first WWE game on PS3. Meaning Playstation got that feature 4 years in total after Xbox players got it.
In Raw 2, we could choose the ref ( 4 different ones ) and it actually had an impact on gameplay. 🤯
Earl Hebner would have a slower count ( for the pinfalls ) than the other refs, as opposed to Mike Chioda who had a faster count than the other refs.
That's right, unlike the current games like 2K23, it wasn't just a visual difference that doesn't matter. I mean, dang... We could select a ref in Raw 2, a game released in 2003. Meanwhile, we had to wait all the way up to 2016 ( 13 years later ) to have the possibility to select a ref in the Smackdown/2K games. And it has only been a visual difference ever since. Still all the way to 2023 ( 20 years later after the release of Raw 2 ) , selecting the ref has zero impact, and therefore, even a game released in 2023 is still behind a game released in 2003 on that aspect... Shows just how much Raw 2 was literally decades ahead on some aspects. We don't need 20 different refs. 3 or 4 is enough.
Have it like Raw 2 where it actually matters who the ref is, as they'd all have different stats that impacts the way they're doing their job ( some would count faster, other would count slower, some would stay longer or less time laying down when being hit, some would be more prone to DQ if doing anything that goes against the rules while others would be more forgiving, ect ) .
Seriously, what's the point of selecting the ref in the current games ? In Raw 2, it was an interesting feature. I'd select Mike Chioda for a cruiserweight match, so that he counts faster to be in the same vibe as the participants of the match, and Hebner for a Undertaker vs Hogan at Mania for example, slower participants, slower counts from the ref giving more opportunities to kick out at the very last moment to make the match more epic and all. That's something Raw 2 nailed a lot better than the current games releasing 20 freakin' years after Raw 2...
In Raw 2, we could edit every Superstars outfit. 🤯
Again, keep in mind that Raw 2 released in 2003, and we could do that.
Meanwhile, in the SD franchise, we had to wait SvR 2010 ( so, late 2009, 6 years later ) to just edit the colors of the outfits... We couldn't change anything of the outfit itself, only change the color.
Had to wait 2K15 ( so, late 2014, meaning 11 years after the release of Raw 2 ) to have a feature in the SD franchise that we had 11 years ago in Raw 2... It's just insane how way ahead Raw 2 was compared to the SD franchise.
Raw 2 also had my favorite Season mode. We could use actions ( like set a trap, steal in someone's bag, ect ) , be enemies or allies with whoever we wanted at any time we wanted. That was sick. We never were able to go that deep in any SD games. From a story perspective, it was trash as it didn't had any, but, dang, having the possibility to be allies with whoever we want instead of the ones that the story forces on us, and be enemies with whoever we wanted too. That was dope.
Also, one of my absolute favorite feature. The game was actually a game. What I mean by that, is we were able to do anything we wanted without restrictions. We could challenge for ( and win ) any title in the game with female superstars. Which was so cool. We could have Trish defeat Lesnar for the WWE Title at Mania if we wanted to. I was playing as Lita in Season mode, and teamed up with Matt Hardy to be Tag Team Champions together, feuding against the Dudleyz. It was so cool, so fun. It's a freakin' game, come on devs let us do whatever we want, guys...
In Raw 2, we could roll out of the ring during the Royal Rumble match, and attack people making their entrance on the outside, fight on the outside. We could grab weapons and all. It was crazy, the Rumble was so fun because of it. Meanwhile, we have literally no gameplay possibilities in Royal Rumble matchs, even in the current games. We're trapped inside the ring and that's it. Even a game released in 2023 has less gameplay features than a game released 20 years ago. Just how insane is that ?...
I could go on and on, but, you get the point. Raw 2 is decades ahead of the SD franchise games... That's how crazy good that game is. Refs and Royal Rumble matchs are still better in that 2003 game than it is in 2K23... Took 11 years to add to the franchise an "edit superstar's outfit" feature that a game released 11 years earlier already had... The possibility to give any title to any female superstar ( and of course, no dumb gender restriction that makes the game a lot more restrictive for people who enjoys using female superstars ) . I mean, dang... And people wonder why I've always considered ( and always will ) Raw 2 to be the best game of all time. Sure, the gameplay wasn't great. But man, that game was so far ahead of it's time that even the current WWE games can't compete with it on some aspects. That's how amazing and fun that game was.
Looks like you put your heart and soul into that comment lol. I guess Raw 2 left a big impression on you.
Bruh every game was everybody’s childhood 😂😂
Never even knew there was raw games b4 smackdown & svr 🔥
It been Raw games since the 90's lol. Y'all some youngsters if you think was the only Raw video game
I grew up on this game. Was one of the ass games that you enjoyed
this is nostalgic asf wow🧍🏽
This game is a top 3 all time wrestling game
Fr
The season of raw 2 not bad at all especially if you like the challenge on the hardest level but the rewards are worth it 💯😆
RAW 1 & 2 are SO UNDERRATED
Lesnar absolutely violated hHh😂
They need to drop the Myrise bollocks and go back to season mode
WWE should do 2 games at once again
If the gameplay matched the graphics in Raw 2.. This could've been a legit classic instead of a XBOX cult classic
Need to play wrestle mania 21 on the Xbox
Raw 2 story mode should do
The only problem with this game was structure of season mode and no voice over.
Use your own music as theme music was a great game
Cena pulled off a crazy win 😮
This was my shit!!! Took me back
Edit: edge was fuccin u up Brodie
I could’ve sworn I had raw 2 on GameCube
I remember this wwe game it was ok game😆💯 but I like other
WWE better
I still like here comes the pain
My big brother had this game for Xbox 360 this was ok to me
WWE Raw was slept on
Please do more season mode 🙏
Hell no 😅😅 the Xbox had the worst wrestling trilogy. Now wm 19 & day of reckoning 1-2 were great alternatives to the smackdown series.
The only 2 things I’ll give them is their presentation was top notch and the ability to upload your own music into the game was 🔥
I use to play the hell out of this game WWE Raw 2 was my shit
i loved raw 2 cuz you could go in season with female created wrestler and get all belts
jeff was already in tna then
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE DEF JAM TAKEOVER SERIES? or did I miss it?👀
Still coming
entrance music was outdated
This game had good create a character customization. Mainly the ability to use your own music. The gameplay was average at best.
Ain't heard somebody call it a special in yrs 😂
Raw 2 top 3 just cuz the fan service was top tier for its time
Now this video title a troll NEVER, i had raw 2 ,Here comes the pain and Smack down shut your mouth and this doesn't even compare to shut your mouth 😹😹😹😹 so definitely not better than here comes the pain. You funny 😂 but the season mode on Raw 2 random asf that was fun somewhat.
You gotta play wrestlemania 21
This game was lit 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯
here comes the pain was way better
Hell tf nah it wasn’t! That’s blasphemy! The raw series on Xbox was garbage af! Had to edit just to add the af part cuz ayooo none of the raw games were it 😂😂😂
LMAO!!!
