A very good point, and one that baffles me. Outside of the new wrestlers and the Ultimate Control System, there really hasn't been a lot that's been added to the game that differentiates it from SDvR 06. Which makes it bewildering why it's actually more buggy and unpolished than last year's game. The best I can figure is that they got so spread out developing for 360 and trying to develop for PS3 that they lost the focus of actually keeping the game quality to a high standard.

Exactly why that now, since the next game will be on two more similar systems, things should go a little smoother.

The hope is there, but I have very little faith in how 2008 will turn out, especially if moves/CAW keeps getting scaled back. Both were premeditated decisions on THQ's part, and I don't see them adding moves they've taken out.

I'm lucky they have a roster I'm quite partial to; because the lack of CAWS I can make now is horrid.

I kind of have a more positive attitude towards the next game, assuming that the smackdown games now release on all next gen consoles this time, there's really no reason why they should get rid of anything, part of me thinks maybe they nerfed down the Xbox version of SDVR just so it doesn't blatantly overshadow the PS2 version.

I wish they'd just recruit the poor leftovers from AKI who are given the unfortunate duty to make rap wrestling games now, to make like, a WRESTLING WRESTLING game. Again, argh.

Are we sure that Smackdown is gonna be onn the Xbox, or will it be something like RAW or Wrestlemania 21?

I think he meant the 360. And personally, the "water down the CAW on 360 so it doesn't overshadow the PS2" doesn't hold weight becuase both CAW's are still the same on both systems, and the 360 even has twice as many layers.

I know he meant the 360. I just asked if Smackdown will continue on the 360 or will it stay on the Sony console PS3 while the 360 gets something like RAW or Wrestlemania like it had before.

Oh. Yeah, I would think it would, since it's essentially the PSP version with faster load time.

The 'Uh Oh! It's Magic' storyline turned out to be pretty fantastic.

Not only did I have the pleasure of breaking Candace Michelle's neck twice with Tiger Drivers, but I got to see Edge speak in Farsi, BoogeyEdge speak in Farsi, and have Candace turn me into an ugly woman, only to spin around and say 'I'm a perfect ten!' in Johnny Nitro's voice. Followed by a match with not one, but TWO Boogeymen.

Best. Storyline. Ever.

There should be a thread just for pics of what WWE Superstars looks like as magically created Divas.

They all look like blonde bimbos in American Flag Bikinis.

Sooo let me see if I get this:

The only thing that could make the storyline passable, that is, the different aspects of the girl you wrestlers transforms, doesn´t exists?

Yes but i thought the PS2 didn't have that stupid "no decals online" rule the 360 has. Of course i have no idea.

Well, like I said ... you get to wrestle a tag match against Boogeyman and Boogeyman.

You don't see that everyday.

But the person you become looks the same for everyone?

Yeah. Skinny, 'Stars and Stripes' bikini, blonde hair, big breasts.

Pretty much a poor CAW of Torrie Wilson.

Blech. I wanted to see what She-Snitsky looked like but now I'll just abandon that plan and continue to make Smackdown match cards similar to those from '05/'06.

[odanobunaga]

So if my mexican CAW bad ass "Juan" transforms into a girl, he would be a pro america plastic bimbo?


Does this games just wants to piss me off or what?

If it wasn't for the Great Khali, MNM, Kennedy, Perfect, Harts and Finlay, I'd have virtually no reason to have gotten this game.
