I have been buying the WWE Smackdown games since the first ones on Playstation.last year's Smackdown game is almost the same as this game. The game is not as fun as last year's,I bought it because I thought they were going to improve the game,but they added struggle submission system,new weapons,different fighting styles and it doesn't save it from being boring. from Amazon.com Smackdown vs Raw 2008 is one of my least favorites even if I do find myself playing it a lot on PSP. I'll start by mentioning the bad: from Amazon.com Once again the WWE leaves the ladies high and dry. Please tell me why there is no 24/7 game mode for the female wrestlers and why they are left out of all the interesting match types like the hardcore ones and the main event matches. from Amazon.com What was wrong with manual targeting that they had to completely remove it? Why can you still throw someone outside and apply unblockable headlock after unblockable headlock? Why did they change the animation for this, but not fix the unblockable glitch? Any long time Smackdown fans will ask themselves these questions and more. from Amazon.com The Good: The game is phenomenal with graphics, even for created superstars. The movelist is sensational, and tremendous. from Amazon.com WWE games are certainly getting better as the years go by, which is more than I can say for the story lines of the shows. SD vs. from Amazon.com If I have a pet hate in the Xbox world, it is games, especially annual releases, that are rushed and do not maximise the full capabilities of the Xbox 360. This falls into that category and sadly, is no real improvement on the series as a whole. The WWE games need some competition from somewhere to maybe force them to buck their ideas up a little. I will say that the graphics, though flawed a tad, are very good and the feature to include your own music into the wrestler's introductions was a welcoming one too. from Amazon.com The 2008 edition has obvious improvements over 2007, but still leaves plenty of areas to improve in 2009. Overall, if you enjoyed playing 2007 and spent more than 15 hours playing it, you'll like 2008. from Amazon.com Pros: Graphics, new RKO Cons: This game is one of the worst Smackdown games ever, if not the worst. Gameplay is horrible, controls were better in the older smackdown games, no new matches, small roster, 24/7 mode is the worse story mode any smackdown game has ever had. from Newegg.com Another year, another WWE licensed video game. Some will go down as bona fide classics (No Mercy 64, WWE Smackdown Vs. from Amazon.com
