This game is better than the older versions but has some problems. The biggest being that they have Umaga but not Jeff Hardy you re-dubted the next week or they don't have ECW on the roster or the lack of tag teams like the Spirit Squad or Paul London and Brian Kendrick. The controls though are spot on giving you a real good handle then the buttons that always felt awkward to me. but using the analong stick is fun. The new "environmental hotspots" which don't help all that muck in a match but are a pretty good help. The Money in The Bank match has been added is the hardest match to win and the Ladder and Tables match have gone some redesign. The Story Mode is probably the best single player experience but gives you an unfulfilled experience. The General Manger stinks so you can just skip that mode. But pretty much this game is the best in the series.

Yea I've been playing this game ever since it's come out, its an awesome game sorta confusing controls at first but once u get the hang of it its a peace of cake but u should make the controls back to square triangle x and o it was much better that way so well its still an really good game I rated a 9 since the controls are that confusing for me.

This game is another great game in the Smackdown! series. To any fan of the series, it's an inevitable disappointment. However, with a great analog grappling system, and a few other new things, you can look past these problems to enjoy yet another great game in this long running series.

THis is the buggiest Smackdown game too date. The commentary has nothing to do with in ring action, and commentators voices don't match with who's actually commentating. The commentary is 100% of last yrs with a few extra lines thrown in. CAW, the graphics on preview characters are like igsaws Random pixels missing. Story mode is boring, and pointless you get screwed every month. and still win anyway. And the second yr is just a repeat of te first but you are the champ to start with. Post match the cutscenes show completely different results to what actually happened. YET your profile indicates the true result? Pretty Good selection of characters. Referee always and I mean always get's in the road. CPU tag partners are uselss as last yr's Ladder matches, the CPU only needs to grab the belt for the final few seconds, as If you go up and wrestle it down the CPU throws you off the aldder pretty easy and then just have to do the final few seconds (not start from scratch) Challenge Mode - You have the Superstar Challenges unlocked, but only 4 of the 16 Legend ones and no indication how to get the rest unlocked. PPV mode, you have to set Title Matches as title matches with no contestants or stipulations until you save the PPV and go to play it, then you have to set the matches one at a time. (SO DUMB!) There are countless other issues with this game, It's obviously stuffed and we should get refunds. I purchaesd it pre-order for $70(Aus) and a week later it dropped to $50 because it's so shit THQ/Jakks must go to the same Production School as EA/Dice. Release games wrought with bugs that are either never tested or released anyway I loved SVR til this one. Now i'm just Pissed Off.
