That's all the names I can think of right now. If I forgot anybody, a-whoops.

[Legendary.]

As long as I have my go to guy CM Punk I'll be happy.

[White Ranger Power]

i dont think dolph ziggler, gail kim, r-truth, kozlov, lita, jack swagger, primo, or mike knox are going to be on there knowing the wwe. Just how they are with new superstars. You know before 2008 neither kendrick or london was on a wwe game. well london was on one of them but out of all of the wwe games he's only been in two when he debuted in 2002.

[Legendary.]

I think Gail Kim, Dolph Ziggler, R-Truth, Jack Swagger, and Primo are gonna be in the game. Mike Knox might be too because the game have a habit of leaving guys in that have been either fired or non-existent on TV.

[White Ranger Power]

i doubt it but ok because wwe also has a habit of leaving new superstars out. they did it with evan bourn on ps2 even though you can download on ps3 and 360 but still he wasn't on all of the systems.

[Legendary.]

i doubt it but ok because wwe also has a habit of leaving new superstars out. they did it with evan bourn on ps2 even though you can download on ps3 and 360 but still he wasn't on all of the systems.

Thats because there was no donwloadable content for the Wii and the PS2 doesn't support a lot.

[Chriz]

Honestly this year I don't care. Last year boasted "biggest and most up-to-date roster ever" and it was but the gameplay was not improved. I got bored fast. As long as they improve the gameplay this time I'll be happy. But with no info yet i'm worried they'll use the legends of wrestlemania gameplay which sucked even more.

Is it really that hard to build on what you have instead of it getting worse each game.

[GoldPhoenixRanger]

The problem with the creators of these games is that every year they pick one aspect to focus on and make that aspect awesome, but every other aspect suffers as a result, hurting the game's overall acceptance. I hope they manage to find a balance this year so that all aspects can be equally good.

-GPR

[White Ranger Power]

you know that's true very well said gpr and legendary it shouldn't matter if the ps2 can't down load he should just be on there what is the point of downloading a superstar anyway when you can just put him on the game.

[Legendary.]

Because sometime there just enough time. doesn't wwe send the list to THQ?

[Chriz]

you know that's true very well said gpr and legendary it shouldn't matter if the ps2 can't down load he should just be on there what is the point of downloading a superstar anyway when you can just put him on the game.

Actually some of the DLC a) wasn't ready and b) couldn't fit on the disk so they had to add it as dlc for people to get it.

[Legendary.]

Which is why so many ppl own the 360 and the PS3 now. They support DLC and right now having DLC is a big thing. It gives the game more replay time.

Exactly

Honestly not to be rude but today if you dont have ps3 or 360 don't complain they get things you don't. They are current gen (with wii) so can can more than ps2 did.

[White Ranger Power]

some people don't have the money to buy a 360 or a ps3 thank you very much

[DanAbare86]

They should let wrestle a hornswoggle this time.

[Chriz]

some people don't have the money to buy a 360 or a ps3 thank you very much

I know. However that shouldn't make the 360 and ps3 limit itself to ps2 standards. It was the same last gen where PS2 could do things the previous generation's Psone coulsd not on the same games.

No different. Yes it sucks for ps2 and wii owners BUT the fact is the ps3 and 360 can do more like DLC and better graphics and more things on the disk, So it does.

[White Ranger Power]

you know chriz you're right

[Legendary.]

Seconded. This is why things are so much better for the 360 and the PS3

[White Ranger Power]

that's why they should cost less

[Legendary.]

The only reason the PS2 and the Wii versions sell is because they are cheap.

[White Ranger Power]

they should lower the price for the 360

[Chriz]

they should lower the price for the 360

No. The ps2 and wii ones are cheaper for a reason. Less features. E.g When they brought in "fighting in the crowd" 360 version could do it every match. Ps2 only in a couple.

As well as that the graphics are much better, Add Internet options , custom soundtracks for it and more and While it costs £40 which is more it's justified in what you get for you're money.

It's like Wii version is normally £20-£30 for a reason. Wii version normally has : less match types , bad use of motion controls and more where it's actually pretty bad and is worse than ps2 version! Imo wii version should be better as wii is better but they suck at making wii games combined with poor sales from non-first party games makes the wii version doomed.


Ps2 version though IMO is holding back the ps3 and 360 version. Because let's face if your game is 99% possible on ps2 then it's not really done to what you can on ps3 and 360.



Here is what I think they should do.

Ps3/360 version - Smackdown vs raw as best as possible
- DLC
- GM mode added back but more like EWR but with cutscenes
- Online contests e.g 30 man online royal tumble or king of the ring
- Improved controls
- Better A.I
- CAW overhall to add new features E.g scan your face with camera like facebreaker, custom signs ect...
- Edit wrestlers outfits again
- Custom arenas (old ones had it why not this)
- Create a P.p.v with the star rating back


Wii version - A new series. Build on day of reckoning
- Allow game cube pads
- Incorporate Mii's better E.g Fifa the management mode had your mii in a suit as manager
- Fun modes. The wii "all-star" EA games do this with mini-games. E.g Imagine a Big head/Mii head mode using realistically about 10 of the tope wrestlers so your mii can use your caw move set
- better use of nintendo's online
- custom soundtracks using SD cards



Ps2 Version = Wii version with features removed.

[Legendary.]

Speaking as a Wii owner the Wii version this time around was fairly usable although not perfect. It could be improved on greatly but somethings I hope stay around. The Online mode was annoying...too much lag <_<

I liked a few wii things too this year like the interactive endings to matches

[Legendary.]

I liked a few wii things too this year like the interactive endings to matches

As did I but I feel like they needed to be explored upon a bit more. I mean I can't imagine every wrestler going coast to coast. I also think that the whole interactive part of it should be wrestler specific unless you change it. I never go to do jeff Hardy's dance every time I used him cause I kept forgetting which motions initiated it.

I will say that the Interactive finishing moves were fun.

HOLY CRAP the create a show mode it mentions is awesome! Create your own shows with your own story lines ect.. update of gm mode sounds awesome enough to make me really really want it

[Legendary.]

OMG. They've done it forreal this time. This is most eager I've ever been to have a Smackdown game.

[Chriz]

OMG. They've done it forreal this time. This is most eager I've ever been to have a Smackdown game.

For same reason?

Hell yes!

[White Ranger Power]

SvR is going to be sick this year and i finally got a 360 so this is my first SvR on the 360.

[Me-Hostage]

We can finally use the Divas in a storyline now? Finally. I don't think that has happened since No Mercy on the N64? :D

I just went to the SvR site and seen Maryse as one of the Divas in the game - along with Mickie. So excited!

Also according to the twitter updates Divas are allowed back in hardcore matches e.g cage. Also austin and the rock = pre order bonus and new way to make people bleed in first blood.

[Ranger Black]

I'm SOOOOOOOOOOO lookin forward to this year's installment of SvR. I've been a little disappointed with the past few tbh. They still rocked, but i felt like the Road To Wrestlemania was too short. But to be able to make your own story should be awesome :D

[DaiRed]

Also according to the twitter updates Divas are allowed back in hardcore matches e.g cage. Also austin and the rock = pre order bonus and new way to make people bleed in first blood.

Is that preorder bonus from Gamestop? Better make sure to do that.

WHAT!? Seriously?! :D :D :D

I know you get Austin if you pre-order it at GameStop - not sure about The Rock though.

[Ranger Black]

Apparently i think ya get both with certain pre-orders and a new way to make the characters bleed?

[Chriz]

Is that preorder bonus from Gamestop? Better make sure to do that.

Yes Stone cold = Gamestop/EB Games (and Game here in the uk)
The rock = Play.com

(But the rock is 100% a code while Austin some say code some say free dlc. So I'd get Austin and just code the rock.)

WHAT!? Seriously?! :D :D :D

Yes as they saw Maryse and Mickie in a steel cage. So how much is gone I don't know but sill cool.

a new way to make the characters bleed?

Yes It said In first blood matches there is specific and new blood inducing punches




Now some new stuff for everyone :


Video (bad quality but still) showing the pin

It looks improved the pin system from Legends of Wrestlemania.

From a few Twitters pages of guys who played it :

The CAS logo issue online has been resolved. Your CAS can have logos and designs

nice!

Yes the career mode is back. Yes you still have to earn attribute points but now this year you can earn them through out the game. Anytime you wrestle as your CAS you will earn points to improve their skills. If you do a 6 man match with 6 individual CAS all 6 will earn points to improve their skills and attributes. And generally from the way they made it sound you will earn points far quicker than last year and you will have the ability to share your CAS with their abilities and points to other gamers.

Very nice

Also other matches like TLC have been improved they just haven't said how.

[White Ranger Power]

I can't wait for the game to come out, but it seems like wwe games took a step back with the fighting aspect of things. I mean the fighting just dosen't seem as good as last year.

[Ranger Black]

We'll have to wait and see. Bring on October :D

[Chriz]

I can't wait for the game to come out, but it seems like wwe games took a step back with the fighting aspect of things. I mean the fighting just dosen't seem as good as last year.

It looks the same really all that's really changed fighting wise from what I see =


- Have to read opponents to tell damage making it more strategic

- NO ultimate grapples

- New pin System

- 1 reversal button.


It's not a step back it's just making it easier to learn. However new pin system + no hud makes you think more which is better so far imo. I think overall though gameplay wise it'll be better

[The Deadman]

the pin system is from Legends of Wrestlemania, and it SUCKS. you have to hold a button, then press it as soon as it gets to a small colored box for the pin to break. if you dont get it exactly, you lose

[Chriz]

the pin system is from Legends of Wrestlemania, and it SUCKS. you have to hold a button, then press it as soon as it gets to a small colored box for the pin to break. if you dont get it exactly, you lose


That is only part true. According one site that played it you can button mas to kick out too if you really want like last year. Personally though I hated legends of wrestlemania but I loved the pin system.

[The Deadman]

the Wii version of the kickout system...you had to use both the wiimote and the nunchuk to kick out

[Ranger Black]

Legends Of Wrestlemania was basically a cash-in for the WWE. Nuff said. I'm always curious to see Smackdown's little tweeks every year :D

[Summer Landsdown]

when i went to wal-mart to buy a game i saw one of the wrestling ones for different game systems i don't know if i saw one for ds

[d4l danny4life]

Legends Of Wrestlemania was basically a cash-in for the WWE. Nuff said. I'm always curious to see Smackdown's little tweeks every year :D

Actually, I kinda enjoyed Legends of WrestleMania. I felt as though it was a nice departure from the previous wrestling games, and I enjoyed the minigames in almost every match cuz it was fun, and that was the only game I dominated it, even on legend mode, lol

[Legendary.]

You dominate in 2009 ...<_< I would know...Santino.

Anyways the pin system for LoW being brought into SVR 2010 was bound to happen because it allows the match to continue. Think about it. The only way you can't kick out is if you've taken way too much damage. If this game is about realism which they keep trying to make it like, then this is definitely the way to go. Building up enough momentum to kick is a smart idea and I like that being in 2010.

[Chriz]

Here we go, the Austin rock debate has an official answer from thq

For Austin, the pre-order games will come with individual, one-time use codes to download him. They are non-transferrable. There is no other way to get Austin/unlock him in the game.

For The Rock, the pre-order games will come with codes, but they will be transferrable after a period of time.

So if you have a gamestop or EB games near you or Game near you for us uk people. Preorder it there it's now 100% confirmed that is the only way to get Austin.


If you can't preorder it from there then :

(usa) Walmart Special Bonus:

so in conclusion from this if you can get Austin pre-order as it's only way to unlock him but you'll be able to get the rest later via codes from somewhere like Gamefaqs.com.

Hm. I could careless about Legends, so I won't be worrying about pre-ordering at this time.

I don't like Austin but I preorderd to get him as there's no other way and create a storyline ect... online I'll be limited as others will use him online. Plus he does appear on wwe from time to time too so if he's involved in a storyline like he was with the trump / vince hair vs hair wrestlemania stuff.

Hm. I could careless about Legends, so I won't be worrying about pre-ordering at this time.

why not? the Legends being in the game is kinda cool

[Chriz]

can not say if this is 100% true but new info :


Road to wrestlemania people : Mickie James , edge , HBK , CAW , Orton and Brand Warfare (most likely HHH and Cena)

Create an entrance movie

Alternate Attires for CAW

Championship Scramble match is in.


This info came from http://www.xbox360achievements.org/game/wwe-smackdown-vs-raw-2010/achievements/ who have posted the achievement points for 360. I said "most likely HHH and Cena" for Brand Warfare as their logos are the achievement picture.

I pray. I canceled my pre-order from GameStop's site because I didn't know if I could afford it by that time, so I'm going to pre-order it from their store and pay it all off today so I'm not tempted to spend the money on something else!

Nothing really special but a cool look

[Me-Hostage]

I went and paid off my pre-order for the game today, and as I was walking out some dude was playing a WWE game. Do stores have demos yet or could he have been playing an older version? I always assumed they put the newer games out for people to try before it was released.

It could have been a demo/unfinished version of the game as thq are sending them out now. That's how IGN showed off what they have. So it's possible GameStop having the exclusive deal and all, got sent things like an unfinished version for stores.


Though it's more likely to be 09 I wouldn't rule out what said about unfinished version.

[Me-Hostage]

Just 3 more days until the complete roster is revealed. Can't wait!

Yay. Dumb question but will they say who's on what brand?

[Me-Hostage]

Yay. Dumb question but will they say who's on what brand?

GameSpot didn't make any mention of if they would reveal which brand they would be on, but I would assumed they will. Didn't they reveal the brands last year as they revealed the players?

Edit:

Just got this off GameSpot:

heres a spanish site that did an article on smackdown vs raw 2010. it is translated using google and was posted on caws.ws. the "fake" roster is in deed the correct lineup.

http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=es&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fsvr-universe.forumcommunity.net%2F%3Ft%3D28152810

But I don't know if this is true or not. Primo translated to English is Cousin, which is why instead of his name is list Cousin under the Raw brand... but, it claims Carlito isn't even in the game... Also, none of the Hart members are even listed. I doubt this is the real roster.

Divas in Cage matches makes me happy!!

[DaiRed]

I did see the brands would be Raw, SmackDown!, ECW, WCW, Legends, and Free Agent.

No offence but I think it's fake. That may be close to regular roster but they too many mistakes e.g : 2 New Fights (Ambulance Match, Backstage Areas) (PS3, Xbox 360 and DS). THQ said from get go Ambulance Match = DS only.

They list the match type but leaves loads out e.g Scramble match.

Carlito is not in yet Primo is?

Kofi Kingston listed twice!

Bella Twins = ECW, Mike Knox = Raw. The Bella Twins were drafted to ECW and Mike Knox was drafted to Smackdown at the same time.


While it could be true with mistakes like roster without kinks worked out or something. I'll wait till roster is revealed Wednesday. Though I really hope Hulk Hogan is a legend like X-play was said to have mentioned. (Why? I get him I download Hall and Nash caws and I do nWo storylines.)

Yeah, I've been posting on GameSpot that I think it's somewhat fake. Maybe an early version that hasn't been fully revised/complete yet.

I pointed out how it has Primo but no Carlito - and they were the Tag Champions for a while, so he should be in.

I also thought it was funny how the Bella Twins and Knox were drafted at the same time and he was still listed as a Raw player, LOL.

But... if they don't have the Hart Dynasty in I'm going to be pissed.

As for IGN thq has taken a new approach this year that works. Only letting little bits of info for the 2 months leading to game's release. It gets people hyped at the time game is out so that's a good thing. Last few years we get more info at start of year hype builds but the time game is out hype is gone and less people buy it. Nintendo do this all the time e.g very little info on New super mario bros that comes out around same time as wwe.

[Legendary.]

Yeah but I need to know about the Wii version as a Wii reviewer of Wrestling games and as a future customer...or gameflyer...if that could ever become a word.

I support the Wii and their lack of games but I think if this years Wii version branched out and made it a lot more accessible for more than a few hours this will be awesome.

so to keep conversation alive, what is gonna be the first feature you try out?

I'm gonna try the create a superstar mode first. Get that out of my way so I won't have to go back and be like "Oh yeah that's there too.". Then I'm gonna be all John Cena bury bury bury mode in my story editor in a story I hope to upload called, "The death of John Cena." Sigh.

I'm still hopping there's some unlockables they didn't mention. I would like to see Tyson Kidd, Paul Burchill and Zack Ryder in it at least, and there's 8 face Divas and 4 heel Divas... unless you use some want to count Nikki has a heel since she was for a short time, but I'd like to see Jillian and Layla. I love my heel Divas. :D

[KamenRiderKiva]

Where's the Hart Dinasty? :S

[Me-Hostage]

Legends have been confirmed from images hacked from the official SvR site.

I've updated the first post with all the confirmed Superstars, Divas and Legends. However, it is still unknown if any of the recently revealed Legends will be playable or just used in storylines. However, Bob Orton does appear to be wearing wrestling attire, so you never know!

[Legendary.]

Bob Orton would be a waste of space...ALOT of space.

[Ranger Black]

Here's a question. What Legends would guys like to see in SvR2010?

[Me-Hostage]

Here's a question. What Legends would guys like to see in SvR2010?

None. I don't care for Legends at all. If they wanna have Legends in a game, they should continue their Legends of WrestleMania and not made the first game such a phile of crap.

The less Legends we have the more current Superstars/Divas we could get.

[Legendary.]

Legends are a horrible edition to the games only because there is a game for that already. This 2010 thing would be better if they left out the Legends and just made Zack Ryder :[

[Ranger Black]

Lol, good points :D Or maybe they could be DLC instead?

[Legendary.]

I wish they did. Me being the guy out of the next gen loop besides the Wii ... <_<... I would have to go over to my friends house to check out the goodies for it.

I'm happy though. I currently have my Gamefly set for the PS2 edition and I reserved a copy of the Wii version. Sadly I miss 09 on the Wii, it was fun while I had it and I'm trying to rent it before in order to brush up on my Wii wrestling. Hopefully the return of button oriented playing will lead to some awesome things but I'm going to stick my neck out and enjoy the way PS2 still feels like home even when the graphics are better on the next gen systems.

[Me-Hostage]

So can someone explain how The Rock, Stone Cold deal works. I understand that the Stone Cold code is one time and only gamestop but how will we get The Rock one?

If you live in the UK you get a unlock code for The Rock (I assume inside the pack like last year). It is said he will be unlockable for everyone else. I guess through the storylines.

[Legendary.]

AH. So Stone Cold is one time only and only for Gamestop but The Rock will be unlockable regardless... AWESOME. Thanks gamestop ;)

[Chriz]

This is correct except Play.com in uk = the rock. However Stone cold is preorder in uk too from Game. (It's why I preordered the Austin one as he is not available to everyone and even if I don't like him it's nice to have an extra character for friends.)

That's why I pre-ordered from GS too. Not a big STSA fan, but the more they merrier I suppose.

As for extra, two more unlockables have been confirmed during the THQ event. Green and Red Test Dummies seen in CAW/CAW since the beginning of the series are now playable. How depressing...

To be fair they already on the disc. It's just now you can use them. Other things confirmed. The one that disappoints me is this :

in your created story u can only have 10 times where your cas is used if you have all 10 cas each 1 you can only use once

As I plan a big story for me caw with a couple of friends. However I can continue story from it by starting new one ect.. It'll just be called "part 2" ect..

That doesn't bother me as much as I never use CAW. I heard in order to unlock some throphies this year though you have to make one, so I guess I will make as many as I need to then just delete them afterward, LOL.

[Me-Hostage]

:confused:Whaa...?

Yep... LOL.

Ah we do. LOL Me and my friends love creating ourselves and using ourselves. I like to use actual wrestlers too but caw adds something for me.

[Chriz]

In the STORY Designer you only can use your caw at one time.

That's kind of wrong. You can use CAW 10 times in total. So like 1 caw = 10 times. However 2 caws = 10 times so 5 each , one 7 the other 3 ect... If you have 10 caws its 1 each.

[Me-Hostage]

Ah we do. LOL Me and my friends love creating ourselves and using ourselves. I like to use actual wrestlers too but caw adds something for me.

Well, I guess I fibbed. I did create a custom back with No Mercy. It was my best friend. She got mad and we stopped talking for years, but I made her and she looked worse than the Mae Young character that was in the game. LOL.

[Legendary.]

Wait I thought that applied to only downloadable content.

[Ranger Black]

Ah we do. LOL Me and my friends love creating ourselves and using ourselves. I like to use actual wrestlers too but caw adds something for me.

I agree with this :D I like to use CAWs too. It makes it more fun :D

[Chriz]

Wait I thought that applied to only downloadable content.

The Limit? Nope. It was reported awhile ago it's caws. The reason is the CAS saves the CAWS to it so when say I down load an nWo story, the caws of hogan , nash and hall would be included for use in that CAS only.


Here is a new look at CAS :

http://uk.ps3.ign.com/articles/103/1034332p1.html


If we can stop for a quick second, I need to correct something since this article was first published. There's a limit of 10 Created Superstar appearances in any story. At first, I thought this meant you could only have 10 Created Superstars in a story, but what this really means is that you can only have 10 uses of a CAS in a story. If you have Created Superstar A in one match and one scene, that counts at two of your 10 uses. Basically, Superstar A can appear in a total of 10 matches and scenes combined. Toss in another CAS, and the number keeps dropping. That's incredibly lame, and I apologize for the confusion.


This is what I was saying!

[Me-Hostage]

Here is a new look at CAS :

It's almost here! Going to pick mine up at 10pm so I don't have to wade through everyone during their "midnight party".

10pm tonight or on release date? as if it's 10pm on release date if you preordered from gamestop you might risk them not having any Stone cold codes left.

[GoldPhoenixRanger]

Gamestop called me and said that the Game will be released at Midnight tonight (12am Tuesday). You won't be able to get it at 10pm tonight, it's not being given out until midnight. However, reserves are good for 48 hours after release so you can pick it up tommorow, but at the risk of not having the Stone Cold Code, as Chriz said.

-GPR

[Me-Hostage]

I got that same call and called the local GameStop where I ordered it just to confirm. He told me it was being released at midnight with their midnight release party, but if I wanted I could come up starting at 10pm and get my pre-order so I wouldn't have to "deal with traffic". LOL. I called back this afternoon just to make sure because I didn't want to wait 2 hours for nothing and they said whoever told me to come at 10pm was wrong and not to come until midnight. Glad I called a second time, sad I have to wait longer though.

Some of my friends on PSN already have it though!!

[Chriz]

PS3 users get screwed over this year. In create a story mode 360 has 500 scenes and 500 matches. Ps3 has 450 matches and only 50 scenes. I think that is pretty shit. Even if it was other way around it would be shit. As 360 and ps3 versions should be the same. Don't screw over 1

[Ranger Black]

Oh man that SUCKS! Looks like i'll have to go for the 360 version then :(

[Me-Hostage]

I'm so happy Trish Stratus is in the game as a Legend!!!

[Chriz]

Oh man that SUCKS! Looks like i'll have to go for the 360 version then :(

Or still get ps3 version. I'm still getting ps3 version. As i can still make long stories just in parts. Example

Part 1 = 50 scenes , about 10-20 matches , 10 caw spots.

Part 2 = 50 scenes , about 10-20 matches , 10 caw spots.

Now yes we have 450 matches but I put 10-20 as 450 matches is too much for a month.



I already have plans around the caw limitations now I just have to work around this one.

My story = Vince brings back the Ministry of darkness. Members = Undertaker , Kane , Edge , Christian and JBL. All heel and gives them a licence to go on all shows. Week one = Ministry destroy DX on raw. Week two = DX introduce 2 new members (me & my friend) and then that evolves in to a huge Stable war.

Already have original DX music on ps3 just in case the music in game = new horrible version of song. but the main reason for this me and my friend's caw can appear less as all others involvved can do more scenes to make story flow.

[DaiRed]

:DI'm really enjoying it.

[Legendary.]

This game is fun on all systems. :]

[GoldPhoenixRanger]

I agree, this is a cool game so far!

-GPR

[Me-Hostage]

The only thing that I can complain about is even though they let Divas do more matches this time around, they still limit what they can do. Before they haven't been able to do matches with Extreme Rules, Cages, TLC, Ladder or Tables - now they can. However, this time around Divas can't do the 6-man tag matches or 6-man Battle Royals like they could before. *sad*

I will be editing the original post here to include the entire roster and cheat codes as they come out for people who might pick up the game later on.

[Ranger Black]

One more day for me :D

DAMN YOU, RANDY! STOP SUCKING! Sorry, stuck on that little hostage situation in Randy's RTWM. I usually can't even make it into the ring, let alone get the belt away from Ted. And why the hell is the camera zoomed out so far?

And I'm also having trouble with Shawn Michaels'. I can't seem to win the JBL match. It's impossible!

[DaiRed]

Yeah, somewhat-discreetly telling me I suck is TOTALLY helping.

Sorry. Here's some tips. For Orton, just run as soon as you can. If you get cut off by Rhodes or DiBiase, just do a running attack on them.

As for HBK vs. JBL, I assume you're on the No. 1 Contender's match where Orton interferes yet the referee doesn't DQ JBL, right? Yeah, that was a pain in the ass. Here's what could work: sweet chin music JBL, then throw Orton out of the ring, try to pin JBL fast, and pray to god that he doesn't kick out.

DAMN YOU, RANDY! STOP SUCKING! Sorry, stuck on that little hostage situation in Randy's RTWM. I usually can't even make it into the ring, let alone get the belt away from Ted. And why the hell is the camera zoomed out so far?

And I'm also having trouble with Shawn Michaels'. I can't seem to win the JBL match. It's impossible!

Not sure if you know this, but if you're playing it on PS3, when you get your finisher flashing, hold R1 and click the triangle and it will give you 3 finishers to use right in a row. I believe they refer to it in the game as "fired up". I use all 3 then am able to get the pin. Some of them were pretty hard before I realized you could use 3 finishers, LOL.

As for me, I have everything unlocked now, just working on the trophies.

Not sure if you know this, but that is a specific abillity that only certain superstars have to you'd have to check Randy's and Shawn's abillities to make sure they have it. Also, make it good because this can only be used once per match if your superstar does have it.

Also, if you really get stuck with JBL, just use the cheap way to win....get him counted out. Just throw him from the ring, beat him up outside the ring (drop on barricade, face into steps, face into ring post, face into announce table, or even through announce table to keep him out for 10 seconds. Then just get back in at the 9 count and you win.

Yes, they have it. I used it on both of them in their RTWMs.

Just got the game for 360. Working on my CAW :D

[Me-Hostage]

Just posted more cheat codes in the first post.

Also, for 360's, did anyone see that someone hacked the game, and found Boogyman's entrance video, and character? The video is on YouTube now the entrance announcement says "The Superstar" instead of his ring name. Supposedly the model is hacked in from last year's game, or something. His move sets are said not to be in the game in the move sets you can pick from when making your CAW, but still it has his actual titantron.

Same here. I've never cared about trophies, but I ended up getting 100% on them for this game. I love this game. I'm really enjoying the fact we can download created storylines, and THQFightGroup has uploaded their CAW of the Hart Dynasty, and they look spot on, except for their moves.

My only problem with the caw downloads is I heard the points don't transfer so you have to build up everyone you download. That stopped me downloading them.

Also I saw you uploaded a Diva story. If you to Condition and friends you can see my stories too.

So far done 1 Taker Vs Taker II. See I notice you can you have two of one superstar in matches and in cutscenes so I created a continuation of when Undertaker faced Undertaker. I even used superstar threads to give fake undertaker purple gloves :D

I heard that too about the CAWs. I downloaded CAWs of Layla, Jillian and Katie Lea, but deleted them before I checked their points. They were good, I just can't stand when it's not "official" - I'm picky when it comes to the littlest things, LOL.

Yep, I made a Diva story. I don't care for it though. LOL. I made it as sorta a test just to see how it all went. I want to make a new one later on, and add scenes (I think I had one or two scenes in my first one). It's just I can't stand using my controller to type up my scenes. I'm going to buy a new keyboard for it so it will be a lot easier and faster to add the scenes.

[Chriz]

That's how I do it, I use a usb keyboard

Ah this game does not get old :]

How many of you are actually effected by not being able to use CAWS in your story designer?

You can use your CAW in story designer, can't you? Someone uploaded a story with their CAW Diva, where she works the Indy scene for a while before being brought to WWE...

As for the game, I'm still playing it. I don't make CAW so all the limits they do have don't effect me.

[Legendary.]

Well you CAN use them but there was that limit I was referring too. I have the Wii version which means less scenes but more CAW usage and it kind of feels good to have control of the story you want your call up to go by.

Anyways, recently. I've been playing the 360 version alot. I have a CAW on my friends 360 maxed out on 100 and stuff and we wrestle allll the time.

One thing that bothers me about the way my friends play is that they use the running spear and the evasive dodge like no tomorrow. Like literally if it wasn't a multi-man match I'd be getting counted out like no tomorrow trying to avoid all their cheap tactics. Is there a way around this in a way where I don't have to stoop to their level?

I am but I got over it by doing it in parts.

[Me-Hostage]

Not much to say in this posting. I'm starting to think we won't get any DLC this year, unless they are making it one large one, which would be nice.

However, for those who didn't get Stone Cold from the pre-order code from GameStop, you can now purchase him on the PSN store for .99 cents.

This is the prime example of why I don't even bother to play the new Smackdown games against people.. Because they use cheap tactics to win.. Just like on the older Smackdown games.. n00bs would put their Smackdowns all the way up to the max and either pick The Rock, Angle, or Jericho and keep doing their ground finisher over and over again, until you are too weak to do anything. The ONLY two wrestling games I will play against people are..

- WWF No Mercy (Because if you try to taunt to get on special, I'll just clothesline the crap out of you so you can wrestle me like a real man)

and...

- Fire Pro Wrestling Returns (This game requires true skill and timing.. I don't think its even possible to cheese a move on this game.)
