    Hell yeah, brotha. Good old confederate Bubba Ray (although it was Buh Buh Ray at the early onset, as I recalled watching his entrance here). Crazy times, haha.
    I only played this once, maybe twice. It was a far departure from No Mercy for me, which was the style I was used to. So I had a rough learning curve, but the video quality on the entrance videos, combined with the audio of the themes - THAT hooked me in good.
    Really dug this video, man. Great stuff here, I look forward to seeing your thoughts on the rest of the series you've got planned!

      Thank you, Cap! I had an absolute blast making this video. I think at this point, this is my favorite style of video to make. I love writing the script, I love having an excuse to play the game again, etc. So I'm glad everyone seems to be enjoying Part I. And holy spit, 27-0 like to dislike ratio, that's uncharted territory for me! Haha. Much love brudda, thanks.

    Dude, no joke. This is my favorite on the 616 Channel. I have no doubt that when you get to Shut Your Mouth and Here Comes The Pain, they'll surpass it.
    I only got to play the first Smackdown game at Walmart when they had the demo set up in front of the games. They only had Stone Cold, Rock, Triple H and Mankind as playable characters but I didn't care. I had a blast. The graphics were different than No Mercy, I'd say lesser quality and the load times sucked but the music, titantron videos and the overall gameplay had me. Seeing the victory poses was for some reason my favorite part and I loved the camera cuts and the Smackdown logo flashing on screen when finishers were performed.
    Also, thanks for the reminder that Tori was hot as Hell back in the day lol. Taker would make an excellent ref.

    • @616Entertainment
      @616Entertainment  7 лет назад +4

      Dude, Tori was fine, wasn't she? Back then I wasn't too into her, but looking back, she had a look that the other girls didn't. I'm not mad at her. I remember she tried to splash Bubba Ray through a table once and she bounced off like a rubber ball. She totally no sold it, went right back up, jumped again, and this time X Pac and Road Dogg shoved her on her way down for extra momentum. The table didn't break, but both legs collapsed, so it worked out. Why is that memory so vivid in my head? I have no idea. Hahahaha. Thanks for watching, brudda. I'm so glad people are enjoying Part I.

    Oh wow! I saw this video promoted by WrestlingVideoGames on Twitter, so I thought I'd give it a watch. And at the moment you appeared on camera and started speaking at 1:33, I stopped and thought "wait, I recognise this guy". And then I went back through your channel and realised, this is the channel that used to do "A Conversation With Corey"! A series that if I'm not mistaken, I found out about right at the start through your promotion of it on the WF forum.
    So it's great to rediscover your channel all these years later and see all the content you've done since. Looking back through your channel, I can see plenty of videos that would appeal to me. I've now subscribed, and I cannot wait to see this series continue.

I'm glad social media could bring you back here, and I hope you find some stuff that you love. Glad to have you back on board! I haven't visited WF since probably 2015, but feel free to share the series there if you like. Thank you!

    You seem to gloss over massively the roots of all the games you covered, from Aki’s Virtual Pro Wrestling for the N64 main stays to Yuke’s Toukon Retsuden series. Their engines or development made it so that when WCW and WWF came wanting, a great game could be provided due to the established foundation the developers had created.

    Never owned the first SmackDown since it was before my time but I do enjoy it. I haven't played it in foreeever tho. That ranking system is super interesting tho....I wonder why they decided to implement that. And why does the crowd animation look like 2219x more realistic than like....any game up until the last SvR? And that "you can create" unlock system is wonky as fuck, did you create Ivory tho? Early 2000's games are the best tho so I love this (Waits patiently for the Shut Your Mouth episode b/c it was my first Playstation wrestling game).

    • @616Entertainment
      @616Entertainment  7 лет назад

      The ranking system is definitely weird. They changed it in SD! 2, which I cover in Part II. Made it way worse in my opinion. And yea, the crowd looks pretty damn good here for buying 2D cutouts, right? I did NOT create Ivory, no. I'm sorry Vinboy.

    The more I realize it, the more evident how the SmackDown series had a very rocky start. The series didn't really hit it's stride with Shut Your Mouth and Here Comes The Pain. One thing I found interesting is how they used the original Survivor Series 1999 logo. Overall, excellent review and is looking forward to the rest of the videos. The first SmackDown game is still enjoyable to play.

    • @616Entertainment
      @616Entertainment  7 лет назад

      I noticed some weird logo discrepancies, too. Not to put a part of my SD! 2 script out there, but the belts in SD! 2 still have the block logo. What the hell is that? And yea dude, there's a steady progression upwards in the SD! games, which I feel is pretty damn rare for a franchise. I'm looking at mid August for Part II, I hope to see you then! Until then I'm trying to share this in as many places as possible. Thanks for the comment.

    • @BrIaNMeRcY1022

      In terms to the championships having the scratch logo, it was gradual. The first two that had it was the Smoking Skull (Debuted on the 7.27.1998 RAW) and Women's Championship (Debuted on the 10.12.1998 RAW). Here is the rest of the championships when they received the scratch logo treatment:
      - WWF Championship (Survivor Series 1998)
      - Intercontinental Championship (10.18.1999 RAW)
      - European Championship (Debuted 10.24.1999 Heat)
      - Tag Team Championship (1.31.2000 RAW)
      - Light Heavyweight Championship (Debuted at Backlash 2000)
      Hope this information provides use for everybody.

      Steve Austin was never featured on a cover for any SmackDown game
      The first SmackDown game was the first WWF video game cover to feature a female. That being Chyna.

    I know I'm going to get hate for this comment but I hated how they made games so easily. war zone and attitude were fun cause you couldn't do combs really. I liked how you had to press the combinations of buttons to do a move such as a suplex or body slam. the crowd would hate you for being repetitive and it would give your opponent a boost of health. so that made it hard and fun. but doing your finisher with one button. come on. in war zone and attitude you had to beat your opponent till their health meter was in red. I didn't like how they started to make wrestling games easy like that.

    I know this is old, but 4:58 that was indeed what he was going by at this time, always hated it and the dumb song he had.

    That was a good video, but is let down by one thing. Do You have to use so many swearwords when you talk? I tried watch this with my son and had to shut it off within three minutes. It's unfortunate because it looks like your video was really good until it got to that part. The extreme use of the F word just shows your intelligence or lack thereof if you can't think of another word to say maybe you shouldn't be on RUclips.
