Reversals and counter moves were also made much more commonplace. A normally unselectable Computer Intelligence mode can also be accessed using a GameShark code, as well as WCW and nWo ring aprons. This game's roster is notable compared to both the preceding WWF Attitude and its successor WWF SmackDown!. It is the only THQ WWF game where Droz, Chaz (Mosh), Thrasher and Jeff Jarrett are playable, with Droz suffering an career-ending injury and the remaining leaving the company the same year. It is also the only one where Scott Taylor and Brian Christopher are in their earlier "Too Much" gimmick, and the only game where Shawn Stasiak 's short-lived gimmick as "Meat" is playable (he would soon after leave for WCW and return after the buyout in 2001). It is one of only two games in which Michael Hayes is playable (the other being "WCW World Championship Wrestling" from a decade prior). In addition, one of The Godfather's Hos is a playable character despite not being a wrestler. In "WWF Wrestlemania 2000", many players have their signature taunts, such as Stone Cold Steve Austin flipping off an opponent or Mr. Ass mooning another wrestler. Also, by pressing in a different direction on the joystick, a different taunt is performed. Rotating the joystick counter clock wise results in the player mimicking his opponent's taunt. All Characters are unlocked by playing the Road To Wrestlemania mode:   In a TV commercial promoting the game, The Rock becomes furious at how the game includes his name, likeness, and move-set. At the end of the ad, he threatens to shove copies of the game up Santa Claus's ""candy-ass"." Some copies of "WWF WrestleMania 2000" shipped with a special card containing four holograms of the in game action, such as a wrestler's entrance or finishing move. The N64 version of the game received "favorable" reviews, while the Game Boy Color version received "mixed" reviews, according to video game review aggregator GameRankings. In Japan, "Famitsu" gave the former console version a score of 28 out of 40. Daniel Erickson of "Next Generation" said of the former console version: "Wonderful gameplay even overshadows the lack of quality audio." In the final edition of "Nintendo Power", WWF WrestleMania 2000 was ranked number 223 in a list of the best games released on Nintendo consoles, namely for its massive roster and positive game-play ability.
