Fun VS. Glitches 2008 sounds better.
First off all the game is really fun if you are playing with friends or just playing the matches themselves. 24/7 career mode, entrances, grahpics, gameplay, environmental attacks, & the added strategy of fighting styles are all in the plus column 2 me.

But just as good as the pros are there are as many if not more cons. Not as many moves compared 2 prior games, controls take a while 2 get used to, no customization of your locker room, no TARGET control 4 multiplayer triple threat matches, VERY VERY repetitive cutscene animations before your matches that don't make ANY sense whatsoever, fewer entrace selections 4 your created wrestler. No cutscenes where you actually talk 2 ANYBODY!! The few times there is an opportunity 2 make a decision that affects the storyline it goes unrecognized by the game. And just 4 icing when you win a match, more often than not, the cutscene makes it look like you just lost!! I'm glad that I didn't pay full price 4 this game but I do enjoy having it & playing my friends.

Bottom line is if you want 2 play your friends or a tournament buy it but don't pay full price!! [..] tops 4 real!! If you want a better wrestling game overall stick with No Mercy on Nintendo 64 or Smackdown Vs Raw here comes the Pain.

Layin the smackdown
I always liked all the smackdown games so it goes without saying that I loved this one too. Some of the charaters are not in it like Maria Kanellis & Lita but the game is still good.

as bad as WWE has become lately
crappy roster, slow loading times, dumb angles in the story mode, terrible move controls, its almost impossible 2 do a reversal cause the opportunity flashes 4 half a second & in video game time it just doesn't work, it takes a tremendous effort 2 take the belt off the hook in the ladder match which makes it very frustrating, its hard 2 make tags, commentary gets old quickly...i could go on....they should make a game where the WWE world is free roaming & you choose your allies, enemies, your angles, etc...and then the computer puts their input based on your choices...I hate being forced 2 fight people when I don't want 2 & I HATED that Rowdy Piper came back & turned on me as a tag team partner - what purpose does that hold in 2008 - if I am Triple H why is Piper beating my a** & making me look like a loser??? maybe Kamala can come back too & feud with triple h in the next version, that would be just as smart...

Over Done, & Nothing But Hype
I must say at first this seemed like it would be a very good game, seeing as they added so much 2 it since any of the prior smackdown titles that i used 2 play. So this was the first time trying out the SvR series, & from what i heard it was pretty much the same game only with a few changes. Going into game play i thought everything would work as it did before only with some minor adjustments on parts of the matches & a little of the control scheme. WRONG!! The beginning tutorials of the game should say it all, you have 2 figure out each fighting style with its own individual & annoying learning curve that really isn't worth the time ,or the fun, you put into playing this. It does however, put an interesting strategic spin on things, but in my opinion the flow of the game suffers. But i must admit once I got the hang of the game, things did get fun. If there is one thing that thq brought 2 the table was a very slick, & polished environment. The choices you have in this game are impressive. & lets not forget about the play modes, 24/7 (which is one of the greatest concepts a wrestling game could have), Tournament (the thing i had the most fun with), Legend (which lets you fight in some of wrestling's greatest matches \m/) & many other great creative things (too many 2 answer).

Thats all very cool, but here are a few issues i had. When playing in 24/7 mode with a created player, you have 2 maintain every little thing your player does, which is great, but heres the issue i had with the training mode. You have 2 engage in a two minute match 2 see if you can pull off the moves needed 2 earn just 1 stat point (which is pretty hard 2 do no matter what difficulty mode you play it in), seriously, why not 2 of 3 points depending on the type of wrestler you classify yourself as(Tech, Power, Speed etc.). That seems like it would make more sense wouldn't it? And if that isn't frustrating enough why are some of the most effective moves based off the square button & the right analog stick? I mean if your trying 2 pull off a move (especially fininshers), with a stiff maneuvering character, wouldn't have the developers made this alot less complicated? So at least you wont have 2 avoid the ridiculous counters every second of the match.

Another thing that's annoying is the commentary & the cut scenes. These all would have been good if they wouldn't have JBL & Micheal Cole repeating the same uninspired drivel over & over again (i didn't get play the game enough 2 hear much of the other commentators, but im pretty sure it would've been the same thing). As 4 the superstars, in my opinion the current stars that WWE have on the roster right now are very boring & okay at best. CM punk seems 2 2 be the only interesting superstar they have going on nowadays, but even his showmanship isn't the greatest. The stories are also pretty shallow & uncreative, playing with Booker T should tell you how lame that is lol. The wrestlers you get 2 choose from really aren't like anything of the truly charismatic originals from past wwe rosters. Even though some of them (and a bunch of other goodies) are available 2 unlock. But would you spend over 40 hrs playing a monotonous wrestling game 2 do it?, you decide.

Then comes the matches that involve more than one opponent. This is one thing that really pissed me off. Instead of having a button you can press 2 switch over 2 the person you want 2 fight, you have 2 walk over 2 your opponent & have it switch over automatically. Only when 3 other opponents are attacking you it makes it pretty impossible not 2 get hit or injured 2 the point where it takes you forever 2 recover. To sum it up, in my opinion this game makes smackdown:know your role title seem like a 5 star in comparison, & i think im being pretty generous when i say that lol. The only reason why im giving this two stars is because of the create & tournament mode. These are about the only things this game truly has going 4 it; or if you like hearing the same s**tty commercial rock played over & over again in the menus til you wanna puke, thats up 2 you. I'm glad i decided 2 rent this one before i thought 2 buy it. If you really want 2 play a fun & easy 2 digest wrestling game, Id highly recommend sticking with the older titles. You would be much better off.
