2000: PlayStation 2, X-Men, and The Sims

History of Awesome is an epic 38-part trip
down memory lane - each episode we're covering a new year's most
important, influential, or just-plain-awesome movies, games, TV
shows, comics, and more.


Up next is 2000. The new millennium kicked off
with the PlayStation 2, and sequels like Diablo II, Majora's Mask
and Marvel vs. Capcom 2 kept gamers energized. In theaters, X-Men
breathed even more life into the superhero genre.


Other discussion topics include Gladiator, Jackass, Perfect Dark,
and Shenmue.
