9/10 WrestleMania 2000

I'll give it a 7/10, I'm more fond of the later wrestling games like Shut Your Mouth/HCTP

GTA: Vice City

I'd give it a 6. Primal was better for me, but I think I'm alone on that front. The soundtrack and the atmosphere was top notch, something about it kinda washed over me though, like I'm indifferent to it.

Holy shit, what a throwback. I had that game, and I remember really loving it at one point. 8/10 for the nostalgia.

WWE SmackDown! Shut Your Mouth

Closer to a 7, but I'll give it an 8 for being essentially the dry run for Here Comes The Pain, the greatest wrestling game of all time. Pretty sure I heard Marilyn Manson for the first time there too.

8/10. Really loved this game growing up, one of the more stronger James Bond titles for me after Goldeneye. Had a really diverse set of missions.

Need for Speed: Underground 2

7/10

Manhunt is a game that could've only existed in the 2000s. It's got the vibe and aesthetic of that Cage film 8MM, where he's investigating a snuff film. You turn on the TV and see Jack Bauer torturing somebody, go to the theater and watch people attempt to escape death traps in SAW, stay for the double feature and watch the Jackass crew self harm for two hours.

As for the actual game, I find the controls rather clunky, and the camera. Once you settle in, it's a solid 8 experience. Oddly slow and methodical for such a violent game, it's unlike any other.

Oh man, you keep bringing up my younger years with these games. I loved this game a lot.

Not as good as BL2, I lost interest half-way through. I'll give it a 6.5/10

 

[Zany Clowny]

An 8. Fast paced, fun to control. The camera always bothered me though.

Next game is a bit of a deep cut, don't see it talked about much. I was glad to see Punisher posted, damn fine game.
