"WCW/nWo Thunder" is a video game released on the PlayStation console by THQ. "Thunder" is the sequel to "WCW Nitro". This game combined the rosters from the Nintendo 64 and PC games with a host of new and unusual characters. The game included many new features, including cage matches, battle royals, weapon use, and the ability to select what stable each wrestler competed for (this included WCW, nWo Hollywood, nWo Wolfpac, Raven's Flock, and The Four Horsemen). However, "Thunder" received poor reviews. Many of these were due to its graphics, style, and overall atmosphere, which bore too many similarities to "WCW Nitro" (such as most of the selection videos were the same and even all the cheat codes were exactly the same). As well, a modification was made to the control scheme, which allowed you to wear down and easily beat your opponent simply by winning grapples repeatedly, hitting your opponent once, and then pinning them.
