WWF Smackdown 2: Know Your Role Review

WWF Smackdown 2: Know Your Role
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
When WWF Smackdown! made it's groundbreaking debut, it amazed some, and others didn't like it.It's obvious pros were graphics and the surprising new match of Special Referee, which is used as getting back at those who stabbed you in the back, or vice versa.There were some cons such as no commentary, and not that much choice in Create-A-Wrestler. It probably wont make any difference to those when it's sequel, WWF Smackdown! 2:Know Your Role hits shelves across the country (supposed release is Tuesday the 21st). Smackdown 2 will have about twice as many wrestlers as there were in the origional (that's about 60 wrestlers), plus a much more updated Create-A-Wrestler feature.Some of the new matches in Smackdown! 2 are the Ladder Match, Table Match, ---- in a Cell, and (the match that has to be unlocked first) the Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match.In addition to some of what you're expecting, you'll get a Create-A-Manager mode, where you pick between Chyna, Steven Richards and others to walk to the ring with you and cause disturbance.You also get a Create-A-Taunt mode, where you go frame-by-frame moving certain body parts certain ways, so you can do the Y-M-C-A, or give the crowd the finger while doing a russian dance.Finally, there are double-moves you can execute, an interactive announcer's table you can slam an opponent's head into and break it by doing some strong moves.There is way too much more to talk about, and not enough room to write about.So I'll go out saying I hope you liked my quick summary of the game, and I also hope you enjoy the game.

Product Description:
SmackDown! 2 is the best wrestling game for the PlayStation,period. In both its graphics and gameplay, it's very similar to the firstSmackDown!, except that players will find a mother lode of options forspicing up their wrestling lives.
Besides season mode, players can fight in ladder, table, and chair matches.Their battles can spill over into back areas, in which furniture and eventraffic abound. Wrestlers can even drive a forklift over their opponents forparticularly painful results. All of the ring entrances are there in finedetail. Players also can create their own wrestler with hair, weight, andaccessory options that rival those of any wrestling game out there.
Still missing is the color commentary; also, the move set for each wrestler iskind of limited. Overall, players can expect a fun experience that, while notperfect, is certainly the top wrestling title for the system. --RobbGuido
Pros:

    Stellar graphics and user-friendly controls
    Countless options
Cons:

    Still no color commentary

This game is oneof many games made by THQ for WWE.I myself am a total WWE fanatic and like this game.This games graphics are third rate but definatly dont mean a thing to the game play.The game play is great it has john cena and has a decent story mode.This game is definatly not educational but it's fun.WWE fans will find that this is a great game for the GBA.I enjoyed with the variable match types (cage fatal four ways and so on).This is cheap and worth the money by far 5 stars!!!!

WWF WrestleMania: The Arcade Game Review

WWF WrestleMania: The Arcade Game
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The first wrestling game to grace the Playstation, and it offers arcade-fighting action in and out of the ring. Arcade meaning that you press forward, forward punch to perform a move. There are only eight true to life superstars, Bret Hart, the Undertaker, HBK, Razor Ramon, Doink the Clown, Bam Bam Bigelow, Yokozuna, Lex Luger and one hidden superstar, so you may get bored with frequent matches. There are some incredible animations though, but it does get goofy though, with hit combinations, Lex Lugers arm turning into a mace, Bam Bam Bigelow is capable to light his opponents on fire with a diving head butt and other such odd things. Playstation makes great use of the sound qualities and the game has crystal clear sound and voiceovers from Vince McMahon and Jerry Lawler doing commentary. The commentary might get repetitive to most people so the game even has the crowd scream things, boo and chant during the match. There is a Road to Wrestlemania mode for single players, which pits you in singles, two on one and three on one-handicap matches. It can get frustrating and tedious to go through those matches. The two player mode only has a huge battle royal mode in which a tag team together tries to defeat 12 wrestlers which come in one after another. While playing the two player mode can get annoying, because once you beat someone you must wait for the game to load as a new superstar runs out.

This is not just some wrestling game.This game includes all the taunts and moves that WWF brings in their shows.With over 36 superstars, this game offers what every other wrestling game has failed at.The graphicslet you see the tiniest details in their faces, and the sounds are likebeing in the front row.You can have a special referee that will countslower or faster depending if they like or hate you.The storyline modewill be enough for anyone hardcore fan and others.Superstars will walk upto you behind stage and help or stop your goal at the WWF championship. Once you get it though, you may have your conceded allies turn on you.Thestoryline can go forever and should change enough to keep everyone on therecouch for many hours.

WWE Raw Review

WWE Raw
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Maybe it's because I recently revisited my past by playing Commodore 64 games but WWE Raw for PC has some really outstanding graphics for a PC game. There are different matches to choose from: Single, Tag Team, Hardcore, Triple Treat, Fatal Fourway, King Of The Ring, all championship belts are up for grabs and more options than I care to even exercise. It is old in the since that characters are from 1 year ago and that may be reflected in the price. Raven walks down the ramp with a shopping cart of harcore items and Perry Saturn walks down with Moppy.
My only lament is that it seems the game is an Xbox conversion rather than a made for PC game as evident is the lack ofmultiple keyboard keys to enter in a wrestler's name.

This game is great but not awesome, here's why:

Cons:
no announce table(PS2 and Xbox 360 have announce table),
little crowd(PS2 and Xbox 360 have full crowd),
characters look very un-detailed(PS2 and Xbox 360 look like real people).

Pros:
good gameplay,
easy to play,
kinda fun(until you lose),
loading time isn't that slow like 2006,
and fun,

This game is great but hopefully 2008 will have a full crowd,announce table, and better looking people.

WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2008 Review

WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2008
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Even though a lot of 2008 is recycled from last year's versionWWE Smackdown vs Raw 2007, most WWE fans will enjoy the ride.

The Good:

Great Visuals:Detailed entrance themes and realistic wrestling moves and finishers.

Storylines:The 24/7 Mode, which is a career mode offers many entertaining storylines and surprises.I won't spoil it by listing all of them here, but in Smackdown Career, you can participate in a Fatal 4-Way Ladder Match to see who gets a case with movie contract.

Great Variety of Matches:Most Match Types are here from last year, but also a lot of ECW-style matches are added, like ECW RUles Hardcore Match where you can use new variety of objects, such as kendo sticks and flaming tables.

Replay Value:Along with a lenghty 24/7 Careeer Mode, you can always come back and do it all over again as a wrestler from another brand to experience different storylines.There is also a Legends Mode, which reminds me of Madden 08's Superstar Mode, where you have to relive some of WWE's greatest moments and do them on your own:Use Stone Cold to defeat Bret Hart and even enter Royal Rumble as Shawn Michaels with #1 entry and try to win the whole thing on the hardest setting.

Skill Improvement:Unlike last year where you only play week-to-week, in here you make moves every day.You can spend your days off just chillin, getting rest, or you can use them to improve your skills or try to make money, shoot a movie or compete in a training excerise.However, too many physical activities may land you an injury and fatigue.

Roster:A huge roster filled with most of today's superstars and even some that are no loger in WWE: Cryme Tyme and even TNA's Booker T is in the line-up as well.Hall of Fame unlockables are:Breat Hart, Anvil Neidhart, Rick Rude, Mick Foley, The Rock and many more.Oh and of course, ECW wrestlers join in as well.
The Bad:

Audio:While some voices are realistic, some voice-acting have been performed by generic-voiced actors.I swear that both JBL and Joey Styles are both voiced by the same voice-over.Many wrestlers don't sound like themselves at all!

Load Times:I have played this on my new Slim PSP and while the loading times seem to improve over when I played 2007 version on the classic PSP, the loading times still feel a bit annoying when you want to experience a fast-paced action.

Unrealism:Some wrestlers act out of their kayfabe wrestling character.I have played 24/7 Mode with Kane and during some storylines he would walk around backstage, shaking hands, smiling and telling jokes, which does seem to be out of the Kane character.They should've made a separate storylines for "Monster/Heel" characters that rarely talk.Bottom Line:If you are a wrestling fan, it will be hard to dodge this title.However, even if you are not a wrestling fan, this will still be worth a look if you like fighting games.

WWE Smackdown vs Raw '09 Review

WWE Smackdown vs Raw '09
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I only have a few things against this game. First, you can only use 5 wrestlers in the "Road to Wrestlemania" Triple H, Undertaker, CM Punk, Jericho and Mysterio/Batista (Together) I bought this game Monday evening and have already finished 4 of the 5 story modes. When you start a RTWM you don't start out right after mania like in the past games, you start out a month or so before the Royal Rumble and go from there to Wrestlemania.From the ones I've played so far only the Triple H one was sort of exciting to me, Cena's was WAY Stupid so was Jericho's.
There are TONS of codes out for the game, you have two STUPID ppl added to your list of wrestlers when you complete Jericho and Cena's RTWM. a Army guy named Tony and a guy named Masked Man....GAY
Other then that i do like alot of the new wrestlers and holds on the game. I recommend renting this game before you buy it. Oh and one last negative thing about the game, it is Super easy to win matches in story mode, Nothing has really changed since last years game.The controls, feel and everything is the same.Only differance is the sort of updated list of wrestlers and the Inferno Match.

WWE Smackdown vs Raw '09 Review

WWE Smackdown vs Raw '09
Average Reviews:

I was skeptical about getting this after SVR 2008 was so bad in terms of match varieties, but this game is great. There still isn't a lot of variation in moves from wrestler to wrestler, but they have all the finishing moves down and it's fun to move the Wii remote to do the moves.

The big improvement this year is not one, but two career-type modes. Road to Wrestlemania is a lot of fun with customized storylines. It's fairly short (spans 3-4 months) and you can only choose from 6 wrestlers, but it really is cool to see new original storylines. In the other career mode (actually called "Career Mode,") you can be anyone and it's much longer. I haven't played the "Career Mode" much yet, but it looks like it will be just as much fun as the Road to Wrestlemania. It's nothing like the lame Main Event mode they had last year, but it does seem to be much more match-driven than story-line-driven. Road to Wrestlemania is the other way around.

Finally, they included much more match types than last year. These include: TLC, tables, ladder, hell in a cell, royal rumble, back stage brawl (which is kinda lame cause it can be really short), and falls count anywhere, among others.

WWE Day of Reckoning Review

WWE Day of Reckoning
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I picked up WWE Day of Reckoning yesterday and played 8 hours straight.Well, one thing I know for sure...I'm not going to touch my Wrestlemania XIX anymore.This new game is going to keep me busy for quite a while.I had the chance to go through a couple matches in Story Mode.

The Story Mode is a huge, huge, huge improvement and I believe it gives Day of Reckoning a very good replay value. Of course you have to use a created wrestler to start out. After and hour and a half of creating my wrestler, I started out my quest to become the most electrifying wrestler the WWE will ever see. You start off in the WWE Developmental territory working house shows and building up your attributes. After being coached by Jonathan Coachman, Paul Heyman takes notice of you and gives you an opportunity to wrestle on Sunday Night Heat.When Vince McMahon takes notice of your in ring skills, he offers you a contract to either Raw or Smackdown!!There will be a different story line and different characters depending on which brand you choose to go with.... and you will join a a choice of factions depending on whether you made your created wrestler a face or a heel. I won't go into anymore detail on how the rest of my story mode goes, but I'm in a reunited faction lead by the UNDERTAKER.Let's just say it's just like watching Raw or Smackdown.There are groups being formed, you're asked to make a betrayal or betrayals are being made on you, you're attacked behind the back in the locker room, etc.... it's crazy. The DoR Story Mode is something wrestling gamers will have to experience.

The gameplay is much better and the animation flows much smoother.I read previews of this game that it was going to be NO MERCY (my favorite wrestling game) on steroids.It's pretty much close to that.The button config is still close to that of the Wrestlemania games, but the gameplay works much better.The spear move looks a lot like it should, not like before where the opponent flies 10 feet back.A lot of the moves now look the way they should be executed. The moves look even more impressive and with more additional moves I've never heard of before, or even seen executed.

Designing your entrance is not as detailed as before, but it still looks great.

They made great decisions picking out the music for DoR.The soundtrack is incredible.Seeing the title page with "Bring the Noise" (public enemy/anthrax) in the background really does make it very WWE. There are additional new songs that I'm now planning on purchasing as well.GREAT soundtrack!!!

Overall, I would give this 4 1/2 stars out of 5.I hope Yukes continues to make improvements every year with their wrestling games.I still continue to compare them to AKI (creators of No Mercy), but I think Yukes will eventually become the leader of wrestling games if they continue pleasing wrestling gamers with products like WWE DAY OF RECKONING.

WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2011 Review

WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2011
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Every year fans eagerly await the newest edition in the Smackdown vs Raw series.Each year, the game features an updated roster and graphics, as well as new arenas, moves and storylines.There are several new features in this game:The Hell in a Cell has been remade to look more like its real life counterpart, matches can be further tweaked to make any match first blood, finisher only, two out of three falls, etc...
So how does this installment stack up to the others?Read on.

Graphics:Since the Wii is known for its cartoony graphics, I won't spend a lot of time complaining that some of the wrestlers don't look realistic.Personally, I'm reminded of the PS2 games with the wrestlers' looks. The arenas look awesome as well: since I haven't seen a PPV in a long time, it's kind of cool unlocking the next arena to see what's waiting for me.

Sound:To be honest, I usually mute the game during matches and listen to my own CDs.That isn't a dig at the music, I like the wrestler's entrance music and I love that they keep playing it during the menus.
The commentary is pretty much badthis time around.For example, I was playing a triple threat match between Natalya, Beth Phoenix and Melina and the King kept saying that if Natalya won, she could challenge for the United States Title.

Road to Wrestlemania:This year, we get five new Road to Wrestlemania storylines to wrestle through.The storylines include taking a character to end the Undertaker's undefeated streak at Wrestlemania and following Y2J's quest for the championship belt.These are the two stories I've played through already.Other stories include one for Rey Mysterio, One involving Christian as the ECW champion, and (of course) a storyline for John Cena.It seems to me that the Road to Wrestlemania matches have been toned down a bit in difficulty.The stories are nowhere near as frustrating to complete as last year's.

WWE Universe:This is undoubtedly the best new feature in Smackdown vs Raw 2011.Career and Exhibition modes are combined in this one to really give the player a chance to feel like they're booking the shows.Players can use the pre-set matches for each show, or go ahead and customize their own.What's really nice is the fact that Universe can be used to unlock certain wrestlers/arenas (so people aren't just doing unlocking via Road to Wrestlemania).

CAW:Create a wrestler is pretty much the same as last year.There are a number of articles that can be used to make your character stand out amongst the WWE Rankings.Though I have to admit, I only made two wrestlers so far, they both look really good.(For those interested, I made Sgt. Slaughter and John the Baptist CAWS).There is still no ability to input your own music, so you are limited to the music ingame.

Unlockables:Every game in the Smackdown (vs Raw) series has boasted its share of unlockables, and this edition is no exception.Though a lot of the legends have been repeated in the past, we do have a couple new ones:notably Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat and Jake the Snake (who hasn't been in a Smackdown game since 2006).The returning legends include:THe Rock, Stone Cold, Terry Funk and Jimmy Snuka (Sorry folks, no Bret Hart for the Wii).There are also a lot of arenas to unlock as well as alternate attires, mostly civilian clothes this time around though.

Final thoughts:Smackdown vs Raw 2011 could have been the next No Mercy.It is a vast improvement over last year's edition, and it really does a good job of sucking gamers into the experience.My personal problems with the game keep me from calling it the No Mercy Killer though.Here is a quick list to review.

Pros:
Makes you feel like you're booking the matches.
Large roster so you can mix and match your dream matches.
Hell in a Cell is a lot more fun.
Difficulty decreased for Road to Wrestlemania.

Cons:
Voice acting is very off.Announcing is even worse.
Wrestlemania Matches in Road to Wrestlemania are hard (not really much of a gripe...but it seems that breezing through RTW and getting to these next to impossible matches is a bit of a let-down).
I kind of miss the Divas storyline from last year's edition.

All in all, I'd say if you haven't played SDvsRaw2010, then go ahead and get this game.However, if you've already played and beaten last year's edition, you might wanna wait until this game drops a bit in price.

WWE Smackdown vs Raw '09 Review

WWE Smackdown vs Raw '09
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've been playing the WWE Smackdown vs Raw games since they came out.While I really enjoy this game, there are a few glitches that have annoyed me.

Pro's:
- Great Graphics!It's hard to image this is on a portable game system
- Fast load times - Thank you!(this has been my complaint in the past)
- Huge selection of wrestlers (but lackibg legends)
- Create a finisher!(Wow - this was a blast to do!)

Let-downs:
- Physics - A lightweight should not be able to toss around the Big Show like he's 150 pounds (but it happens)
- No fighting in the Fan Area (if there is, I haven't found it)
- Not every wrestler available of the Road to Wrestlemania (this is the only segment with a story line)
- Career mode - No story line, just matches...bit of a let down

I've enjoyed playing this game for the last few days, but I just keep thinking that something's missing (like Hulk Hogan).Now, the important question, "Do I recommend it?"Sure why not?It's improved on a few areas, and it's still a lot of fun, but it does feel like it's lacking something.....

And there are now different ways of tagging in, such as the forced blind tag and reversible hot tag. Teams also get team-specific finishing moves that are incredibly satisfying to perform.

The story lines are so custom tailored and well done that you might find them more compelling than what you see on television.
WWE fans and fighting game fans alike will both love this latest game, giving them a chance to grapple as their favorite superstars.
