That preview basically said "new controls, new menus". THQ better be doing more than that to improve on last year!

Uh oh, I found some disturbing hidden information by highlighting the blank space after this paragraph with my mouse cursor in the IGN preview
As for the rest of SmackDown, THQ isn't showing us yet. Most of the roster is still being shrouded in secret and the create modes are being held back for another day. We did learn that there will be a new interface in these modes, however, and there are some more announcements expected in the coming months (such as the completely new soundtrack, where feet will stawmp and heat will hawmp once again, and there may be more than one bullet with your name on it, bullet with a name. Now if that doesn't crush, kill, destroy, we don't know what would. Oh, and not a chance of custom soundtracks, you internet marks.)

WWE should start adding in messages like that on their website.
So I assume that if you select the wrestler who's champion and put him against someone, then you can choose if the title is going to be on the line. YES! WE'RE ONE STEP CLOSER BACK TO THE RATINGS SYSTEM!

Hmm...maybe with E3 going on we'll get new developments. Like, the biggest story we all want to here:
Cory Ledesma has accepted Godz challenge, and the match has been booked for WrestleMania XXIV.

Yeah? I better get in shap- nah, screw it, I can take him regardless. And as for YOU D2, I need to avenge my loss to you the other day. I've created a new guy to take you out, and let me just say you'll need to get out of his way, cause he's in the zone.

I also was peeved that I couldn't put my hometown as Japan like I was able to do in 06 (which was before I moved here). I live in Japan right now, after all. But by the time SvR08 comes around, I might be home for good, so I might as well stick with my new hometown (Detroit... but I'd rather hail from Ann Arbor)

We should still sic the creature from Cloverfield/The Parasite on them just to be sure, tho. This part cracked me up, too. "We wanted first-time players to be able to do what they want without having to learn a number of complicated maneuvers," remarked Ledesma. Like the system was complicated before. A button, and up. That's how you executed a move. It's like they're shooting lower and lower every year.

Most kids these days can't even figure out this food-air-shelter deal. What makes you think they can execute Triangle-X-Triangle? I think they're setting up the online component to suck mightily this year. I don't see them revising things, and now you throw these damn super moves into the mix.

Alright, if these things are improved upon, I'll be happy.
When doing a pinning move in a match where pinfalls are not the way to win, you do a verion of the move you are trying to do without the pin.
Enough room on the outside of the ring in Hell in a Cell to pull of actual moves, maybe a crazy flip dive into the cage sandwiching the opponent.
Better hair in CAW.
More Godsmack type music.
Way better season storyline.
Keep everything the same and just change that, and I'd have the best game ever.

No one uses rainbow hearts on their CAWs. Ever. And a more robust choice of logos and tattoos. In fact, implement the create-a-design from Day Of Reckoning. How hard is that? And of course, overhaul the AI and give the game some psychology. The analog-based submission system is a step in ther right direction, but if we get the same brain-dead AI in certain matches, we will continue to have issues with this game.

Why do people question the lack of Stevie Richards in the game? The guy never does anything worhtwhile in real life, why would they really waste the time putting the guy in the game? When he's never included to begin with...

Stevie was in HCTP, but now in SD vs RAW. He was in 06, but not in 07. I think it's possible he gets into this one, with this pattern amerging.
Plus, with the "ECW Inclusion" why wouldn't you put in Stevie?

I encountered a weird bug playing SVR2007 just now. I was Mankind and I'm wee brother was playing as his crappy caw. I powerbomb him through the table and go to pin him but BAH GAWD! I can't because JR and Keeng are blocking me and then he clips(Walks through) the barrier and proceeds to stroll through the crowd and out of the stadium. Any one else had this one?
