Things I want to see BADLY for this game: No more ice skating Get that FING! referee OUT OF MY WAY!!! When you squash your opponent with your most damaging moves, would it be too hard to make it that they don't BOUNCE UP RIGHT AWAY and fight like they're fresh as a daisy??? When the CPU is controlling my opponent, could it possibly BEHAVE IN SOME WAY EVEN CLOSE TO REALITY??? In General Manager Mode: Could the opposite TV show have wrestlers that a) get injured? b) aren't always happy? When one of my wrestlers is bitching about getting a title shot, could it be made possible that a Tag Team or United States or IC Title shot is satisfactory, especially if it is someone like Shelton Benjamin who is crying like a baby? I would also like to see the expansion of matches that the Womens Division can participate in. I want to see the Tag Team titles mean something in GM mode too. You should be able to have rivalries in tag teams. When the draft occurs at the end of the year, is it possible that RANDOM picks mean something other than "your top three guys for my most unnecessary ones' ?? I was playin 06 the other night and in the draft I lost Batista Orton Carlito for Danny Basham Michelle McCool Rob Van Dam How the hell is that RANDOM?? I had to use my selected pick to save Batista and had to do a nasty trade to get Orton back, and had to give up Carlito. It is soooo NOT RANDOM!!!! /RANT OFF

In GM Mode I want to see the matches rated better.
The way they are rated now is by the people in the match who have a good superstar rating and the type of match it is.
Thats crap.
They should rate it the way 'WCW/nWo Revenge' rated matches.
I hate having epic matches between a CAW and Charlie Haas that go for 20+ minutes get a two star rating cause of the low SR ratings they have
Meanwhile Kane & John Cena have a five minute suckfest that ends in a DQ and it gets 4 luving stars.
Its like Wade Keller is rating the matches.

LOL, I know what you mean.
I have been trying to give Charlie Haas a big push in my latest season. He's gone from his original 25 points and is now nearing the mid 50's. I already had him at 41 points and then, out of the blue, he goes and gets a 16 week injury!!!! FING! Had to turn him off and on again and start over.
I agree about the ratings, too. I had a HIAC match between Undertaker and the Rock at Summerslam, and after about three minutes and very little damage either way, they were on top of the cage and Undertaker hits the Rock with a tombstone and its all over. 3:35 on the clock, about three moves each, and it gets a 5 star rating! wtf???

I still haven't tried SD vs. RAW 2006's GM mode but a couple of times. EWR just does the whole thing so much better, and in that game even the ratings usually make sense.

Actual match "content" has nothing to do with star raiting in 2006. I once had a Hogan vs Austin vs HBK vs HHH fatal four way for the title (All ranked 95 popularity or above) and literally ended it 10 seconds in by chairshotting someone..... 5 stars baby!
Needless to say, I hope GM mode gets a HUGE overhaul this year, because I just hated it last year. You need a lot more money for one thing. Secondly, is it really so much to ask that we can choose the winners of the matches and just skip them? We all know wrestling is fake, Vince. You said so yourself.

You could do that in one of the earlier Smackdown games. I don't know why they took it out. Same reason they took out the Samoan Driver? Y'know, that really pissed me off, because that move used to be my main CAW's finisher, and then they removed it for no reason. I had to give him the Ki Crusher, which, while a cool move, looks ridiculous when you're doing it to a big man, like the Big Show. At least in the Fireman's position, it looks somewhat like it could be done. Although I preferred the Yebesu Driver variation in DOR2. It looked like it had more force.

I've played through 2 years so far, and I trail by a significant amont every time. I have noticed that when you let the computer pick the matches randomly, you get better ratings. You also get gimmick matches every night, and almost no rivalries, since the CPU's just throwing people together randomly, and it completely defeats the purpose. Next time, I'm restarting GM Mode, and just going to run both shows. And put me down for wanting to see more show-to-show interactions between the two shows, including having SD stars show up at my show (and not just in a little box describing it...I want people to actually interfere.)

Its like Wade Keller is rating the matches. It's just like the real WWE. It's doesn't matter how good the match is. It just matters who's in the match and who wins. For example, Batista and Big Show could lump around for twenty minutes punching each other and you'd get at least four stars, because they're WWE SUPERSTARS!!1!1!(tm) Meanwhile, my Samoa Joe CAW has a fantastic back-and-forth match with William Regal. What do I get? "Boring" chants and 1 1/2 stars.

I won it. I was losing till WrestleMania, then I won all 3 interpromotional Mania matches and that swung it in my favor. And to the people having trouble raising their CAW (and other WWE guys for that matter) popularity.....have random matches with guys around 90 pop vs each other, and put the guy with the pop you're trying to raise in the corner of the one winning the match. Then, every time your superstar wins, the guy with the low pop gets a benefit too, without dragging your card down with lots of * and ** matches.

I always win the GM mode. The trick is to make sure you have some hot feuds going at the time of your PPV's. A good PPV card will draw you about half a million viewers.
Other tricks include doing an interference promo the week before the other show's PPV, never do a slander promo more than about once every 6 weeks, use HIAC or big main event matches on your PPV cards, always change up the order of matches on your show, forget the tag team titles - they're useless and only good to save a couple of your wrestlers at draft time.
If you are playing Smackdown, try to draft Trish, Lita and Torrie for 5 weeks at the starting draft. Once the game begins, release them and shut them down in the Free Agency menu. This leaves RAW without a strong Womens Division and it effects their ratings. Alternately you can use them as trade bait and get a good wrestler from RAW. I got Kurt Angle for Lita and Torrie the other night.
GM Mode has its problems, definitely, but its the only replay value that SDvR06 has.

"GM Mode has its problems, definitely, but its the only replay value that SDvR06 has. "
Especially when you've made all the CAWs that the restrictive CAW mode allows you to make.

It would be great if the new GM mode had all the stuff you could do in EWR. I can dream.... At least let us set interference and have lots of options for angles and interviews, and face/heel turns. And yeah, fix the rating system.

Well I'm already mad. Here's today's update.
The game is so out of date, Big Show and Kane are the default tag team champions on RAW.
Big Show does not have his Cobra Breaker (Thats what I call his Cobra Clutch Backbreaker, I haven't heard if it has an official name or not) as far as I can tell, as his finishers are set as Chokeslam and Final Cut (Which he hasn't done in forever). So, unless its one of his regular moves, I'm pissed. Its one of the few WWE moves I mark for.

One cool thing I noticed in the videos is that Kid Kash has his Pit Bulls attire.
But this begs the question, why didn't they add Jamie Noble?

Yes, interactive belt entrances have been missing from an SD game since SD4: SYM!!!
Question is that for both the ps2 and 360 versions?
