WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2008 (Xbox 360)

...the hype and expectations of wwe fans like myself. But this years edition is much more improved with the addition of ecw, 24/7 mode and hall of fame mode. But thats not all the biggest improvement of all is the fighting styles. Each wrestler has their own abilities. The abilities can be a showman, dirty, high-flying, hardcore, powerhouse, technical, submission or brawler. For example John Cena is a power house so his moves will cause more damage ...
...items to unlock in the wwe shop and legend characters such as The rock and Bret Hart to buy by earning cash in career mode. The career mode is a massive improvement to all the other smackdown games. You can do much more this time round. You can star in a film ,do autograph signings and train up your superstars to help improve their stats. What I like about the controls this time round is that they have got rid of the B button which was used to build ...

Review of WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2008 (Xbox 360)

The Smackdown Series peaked at Smackdown 2 on the Sony PlayStation 1. Ever since then the annually released Smackdown series has been plummeting title after title. The currently available Smackdown vs Raw 2008 is no exception. The game features a large roster, including classic superstars like Roddy Piper and Mick Foley and impressive selection of match types but it's game play destroys any appeal. This is where we see a flawed control system which ...
...clunky, slow and not fun to use. executing any form of move using a table for instance seems more down to chance rather than skill. In the few weeks solid i played this title i couldn't once use the announcers table to put an opponent through, even though the minute manual included with the game told me i could. The story mode is week, often repeating animations and the stories are no more than a joke. Even create a superstar feels toned down with ...

Review of WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2008 (Xbox 360)

The latest edition of Smackdown Vs Raw is amazing. I've played all the other games and this one is certainly the best! There is so many more options in this edition. One of the more noticeable features is the ECW Extreme Rules Match. You can go under the ring and grab any weapon you like. My friends and I were always saying when we played the previous games that it would be good to be able to choose what weapon you had. In this edition you can! Perfection! ...
...called the 24/7 mode where you can play as a created superstar or a superstar on the roster, The goal is to become a legend. Which isn't easy! Believe me! The stories are good on the 24/7 mode but I still prefer playing the GM Mode which is also still available on this edition but is much better as you can send superstars to play roles in movies, do interviews, pay per view commercials and more. The influx of ECW superstars is definitely a good ...

This is the best WWE Game out So much fun and so realistic Graphics is superb and just like the real thing. Hell in a cell is much better than other years. ECW Feautres Extreme Rules which i love.

...The latest game in the WWE SVR series is a "slobber knocker!" bringing more advanced features than ever an almost 100% improvement upon the previous game. Why do I say this? Just look and observe the graphics, they were so stunningly realistic that I now cringe when I perform finishing moves. This is also jam packed with new features an increase in the roster and the inclusion of the ECW brand. More moves including the ability to set people on fire!, ...

The game controls has yet again been enhanced abit which may be quite annoying for some players as yet again, they must get used to the newest controls. Some of the functions included is the new struggle system; personally ...
