Smackdown vs Raw 2009

Advantages: Quality Graphics, Great Gameplay, New Features
Disadvantages: No GM mode!

...feature that I really enjoy, to this years Smackdown vs. Raw. You experience the most important time of the year in a WWE Superstar's life, you get to choose between, Triple H, Chris Jericho, John Cena, The Undertaker, and CM Punk, or you play Batista & Rey Mysterio in a co-operative mode, and try and become tag team champs. These storylines brings you up close to the superstars, and lets you experience what it's like to be at the biggest event of the year, Wrestlemania! In career mode, I found it a lot easier to unlock things, the season don't really last very long. In one way, that may not be such a bad thing, because, you will have more time to play around with the unlockables, create superstars, and play matches. The only disappointing thing about this game is; there is no 'General Manager' mode. I loved the 'GM' mode, you could do your...

WWE Smackdown VS Raw 2009 PS3

Advantages: Different endings and storylines, Tag Team moves, overall ingame modeling, Inferno match
Disadvantages: Similar to its predecessor in most parts, no actual revolution of gameplay

...WWE Smackdown VS Raw 2K9 One word review This is just an evolution, not a revolution I played this game in the Gaming Centre nearby my house for two hours, the PS3 version of the game. I must admit that the game is enjoyable and all WWE fans would love this game. But Normal Gamers and Non-WWE fans won't really like to play this game for more than 2 matches i suppose because this game is exactly as is predecessor Smackdown VS Raw 2008. The Changes This game mainly has certain changes from 2008 version of this game as this game mainly concentrates on The Road To Wrestlemania. No 24x7 mode as in 2008 which really sucked up. For all the characters it carried the same storyline with some minor changes in cut scenes which was also very rare to spot. This was the case with Smackdown VS Raw 2008 (SVR...

WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2008

Advantages: Great Graphics, Gameplay and online matches are great
Disadvantages: Hard GM mode

...Smackdown vs Raw 2008 is the best wrestling game to date with much improved graphics, sound and gameplay. Over the years the smackdown series have failed to live up to 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 and Ric Flair is a dirty superstar, he will cheat to win. This makes the gameplay more fun and enjoyable and more tactical. There are plenty of matches to choose, from your classic one-on one matches to tlc matches, extreme...

Smackdown Vs Raw 2008

Advantages: good roster, polished look
Disadvantages: bad controls, recycled animations, poor career mode

...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 changes every year thats not exactly series fans friendly. it's 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...

WWE Smackdown Vs RAW 2007

Advantages: Good game
Disadvantages: Has a few bugs

...WWE Smackdown Vs RAW 2007 PS2 I bought this for my son the other day. Well sort of true, I wanted it as much as he did. First thing I noticed was they have changed the controls from the previous versions. It uses a new "Analogue control system". It's not easy in the beginning but after a while you pick it up. There is an option at the beginning showing you all the new way to use the "Analogue control system". The moves are made by the sticks, the left is for moving the wrestler and the right is for grappling etc. A small tip if you're not happy with the new system if you go to the options for changing your setup and go to controller and choose "type d" it goes back to the old buttons as in WWE 2006 :). There is more high impact moves, an even better season mode which lets you choose how you want to react in your game. Being...

Smackdown! VS. Raw it's a BORE

Advantages: Good In 2 Player
Disadvantages: Not the finished article

...Excellent! I thought as I unwrapped this game on Xmas morning, as a fan of The Smackdown Series on PS1/PS2 I thought that Smackdown Vs Raw would keep me entertained over the whole of the Xmas period, the truth is by the time I was chomping on my Turkey Sandwiches that evening, It wasn't Smackdown Vs Raw in my PS2 it was GTA San Andreas, and this is why. Graphics As with all the series the graphics seem to go from strength to strength from title to title. Allow the PS2 ain't as powerful as the XBOX with the graphics displayed here and compared to XBOX WWE you might be forgiven for thinking the PS2 is the more powerful Machine. This has always been one of the strong points in the series, more so now. Sound Although we had the legends introduced in WWE SMackdown Here Comes The Pain, they didn't come with authentic legend music...

WWE Smackdown Vs Raw

Advantages: Great Graphics & Gameplay
Disadvantages: A Repetitive season mode

...Easily the most impressive wrestling game on any console wwe smackdown vs raw provides the top names in entertainment grappling it out with each other whether it be the ring,backstage or parking lot. With a wide range of choice in the game modes including popular over the top matches including hardcore where each wrestler beats each other to a bloody pulp with weapons such as steel chairs,sledgehammers and ladders to knock the living daylight out of your opponent.One disappointment in the game mode is the TLC (table ladders & chairs) match as the match could be quickly finished depending on where you put the ladder to catch the belt hanging 20 foot high. My personal favourite is the hell in the cell match where you grapple with your opponent inside a 30 foot steel cage with a light steel roof top of which you can climb to the top...

Smackdown vs Raw vs 'No one else'

Advantages: More matches. More wrestlers, More moves, More game types
Disadvantages: A.I - Fight the insanely easy or infuriatingly difficult, Season mode to short and repeatitive

...Year upon year THQ pulls out another WWE title, each one supposedly surpassing the previous year and in general this is the case. Real wrestling fans often argue that they still haven't gone anywhere near in producing a 'REAL WWE' match, but like all sports related games realism often has to play second fiddle to gameplay. However with the release of Smackdown vs Raw 2006, it seems for once a lot of effort has been made at creating something more than a yearly update. There are new featuers a plenty, more matches to choose from including ' buried alive match' . A General manager mode, new match features such a momentum which gives a new twist to matches. Just in general you feel as though you have more control not over the character alone, but in the way you want to wrestle. In particular this applies to the CAW (create...

Smackdown Vs Raw (Ps2) Not All That Impressive

Advantages: Good Graphics, Intelligent Gameplay
Disadvantages: Little Backstage Options, Season mode CRAP

...The graphics are amazing, the last wrestling game I played was Smackdown 2. But unfortunately for Smackdown Vs Raw, Smackdown 2 was much better! Let me explain: 1) Season mode is farr too easy and is finished very fast, if you restart season mode its basically the same story each time whatever superstar you use. 2) You cannot go backstage in matches! 3) theres less stuff you can do like its more difficult to put people through announcers tables 4) Backstage there is only 1 backstage place you can play thats the car park which is good but far too limited. Smackdown 2 had loads more options, you could even drive a pickup car sort of thing then! the only thing thats better is the graphics, but thats because its a PS2 game, other good things are that you can take your opponants finisher move (that uses two smackdown signs) + you can...

  Smackdown vs. Bore!

Advantages: Better realism than ever
Disadvantages: Some obvious omissions to the roster and horrendous loading times!

...My name is John and I like wrestling. There, it's out in the open. I've watched a fair bit of wrestling in my time and yes, I know it's fixed, but I don't view it as a sport, I view it as a soap opera with more hitting and, as far as I'm aware, all soap operas are fixed! Anyway, as a few of my friends are also fans of wrestling, we've also become fans of the Smackdown vs. RAW (formerly just Smackdown) series of games on PSOne/2. So it was that I came to have Smackdown vs. RAW 2007 under the Christmas tree this year. GAME INFO. Genre = Beat 'em up Developer = Yukes Publisher = THQ Players = 1-4 Players Online = No Age = 16+ reccommended Released = 2006 GRAPHICS The in-ring graphics look little different those of the more recent titles in the series, which is to say pretty good. All the wrestlers are good likenesses...
