    Plenty of content and refined controls make this title a definite buy for WWE fans. This is one of the most entertaining wrestle games around. It's easy to get lost in the WWE fantasy. Just keep in mind that you'll need to shell out more moolah for the online multiplayer if you get a used copy.

    As it is, this new installment still remains a must-have simply due to the Havok physics - it adds that much to the game that it's worth buying it just for crazy extreme rules and TLC matches.

    There isn't much innovation here, yet the controls have been utterly fixed, the new Havoc phisics do their job and WWE Universe is a funny diversion. It's a shame that some mechanics aren't yet perfect, even after so many years of developing.

    This is yet another good installment of the series after it found the right way years ago. It has not many new features and seems to be focused in improving some things, but it lacks some freshness, despite the new WWE Universe mode.

    The game has what many modern, and slightly more polished titles don't have; a real sense of fun.

    WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 doesn't feel like a "new" game but more of a half step forward from last years game. WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 is an incremental improvement that provides some solid new content but nothing earth shattering.

    I enjoy playing around with all the different creation and storyline-focused options in these titles, but when I actually find myself presented with the concept of wrestling, my enjoyment disappears in a cloud of disappointment. There was a time when this gameplay design worked, and that time was years ago.

It runs pretty smoothly and it's the best wrestling game I've seen in a long time. It's not perfct, but it's a very good game. My only peeve is the fact that you can't climb on the announce table and put your opponent through it, and that you can only go in certain areas on the ramp and stage in a falls count anywhere match..technically you can't go "anywhere." One of these days, THQ will make the perfect wrestling game..maybe by 2020. :) Expand

I think the game play held up surprisingly well for how long this has been out. It has a really cool road to wrestle mania series, and John Cena on the cover. What more could you ask for? Well, you can also create your own season (sorry idk what to call them i'm not an active consumer of the wwe), and make your own cut scenes too! Really fun game Expand

    It is a decent game, however i have a few problems:

    You can only defend the main championships at WWE pay-per-views, Ezekiel's Jackson's finisher is the basically the Book-End or King End and there is only one set of commentators in the game (jerry lawler and michael cole).
    Create a titantron has been taken out and it wasn't that good in svr 2010.

    Apart from them flaws, i think you should not hesitate in buying it. There is better online, lots of dlc and unlockables and awesome wrestling which is why we are buying it.
