    Really, it's a very, very good game! Fine game-play, realistic moves of remote&nunchuck, nice "road to wrestlemania mode", game online mode (I dont know why, but people always play as one vs. one mode... Why?! I want to play with more players ;p) good fights and fun... But, unfortunately, in the game 're many bugs and error and the graphic is very bad. Maybe many people will say about it that "Bad graphic? It is just a wii! If you want a good graphic you should bought x360 or ps3!". Ok, I know that it's just a wii, but other games (for example SMG, SSBB, MonsterHunt, CoD) so I think that the staff producting this game should do it better, becouse they cought, I think... My rate will be 8+ or 9-, I dont know... But I've hope that this game on 2010 version will be really better. So 9 (9- but i can't). Sorry for my english, i know that it isn't good, but i m beginer (I'm 17) and i m learning it. Polish player&fan of triple h, hbk and cm punk.… Expand

    Complete and utter garbage. The only reason it gets a 5 is because of the huge improvement over the bigger piece of garbage that was Smackdown vs Raw 2008 for the Wii. Tons of moves and features are left out of the Wii version, yet made it into the PS2 version, showing that it's not a hardware or technical issue, but rather a developer idiocy / laziness issue. The motion controls get tiring very quickly, and greatly limit the actions you can perform, keeping your wrestler from even being able to freely run in a direction other than directly at the opponent. Yuke's may have put in more effort this year than last, but it still falls horribly short of being a good game, let alone comparing to the excellent Smackdown games from 4-5 years ago on the PS2.… Expand

    Wii owners have a SmackDown to be proud of that has the definitive ladder/cage matches. [Dec 2008, p.56]

    Bar some tiny niggles, it's easily the best wrestling game since the N64 glory days.

    If you like wrestling but find old-school SmackDown as welcoming as Croydon, it's finally time to get involved. As enjoyably overblown as the TV show. [Christmas 2008, p.64]
