Here comes the pain was the last title and that was quite an extraordinary game, all the modes and new features were well structured and the game was brilliant to play with friends, now the new game arrives Smackdown Vs Raw.

Create a belt and wrestler mode advance storyline, commentators can be seen while wrestling and panic when wrestlers approach the commentating tables. Commentators also commentate during the match and parts of the table can be used as a weapon there are also legends including old school Kane, oldschool Undertaker, Andrea the giant and Bret "the hitman" Hart. Increased polygon count, one new match type officially named the parking lot brawl, you can smack wrestlers into car windows, improved wrestling (new moves more moves and optional start to matches) Wrestlers speed and abiltity affected when carrying weapons, new challenge mode where you can play for money and buy new clothes moves and wrestlers. Storylines actually wrote by WWE script writers. Wrestlers are given a style face or heel, its simple if you are a face you can pull of chair shots and increase the new signature bar or choose a heel and increase the signiture bar by cheering to the croud and escaping moves ect you can change whether you are a face or heel by your actions in the story line mode, in royal rumble match you now have to eliminate wrestlers with a special move. Up to six wrestlers in the ring at once, you can now control managers while wrestling e.g. press the analogue stick and u can decide whether he passes you a weapon or disturbs the ref, while in a tag match you can now brake submisions "now you can see why this is going to be fantastic"

All these new features will make this a very pleasurable experience Cant wait.

Quite simply, SD v Raw is going to rule. My brother's birthday is a week after it comes out, so it works for me :0D

Shame that it'll clash with Half Life 2 :0(

WWE SmackDown! Vs. Raw is the latest offering from THQ and Japanese developer Yuke's, and it's going to be explosive combination. The game has all the excitement of a pay-per-view event with its varied roster of fighters that spans the past and the present, in addition to it’s blending of the WWE's SmackDown! And Raw franchises into one.

The game's roster was an mix of old and new faces and included a solid representation of legends, including the late, mighty Andre the Giant. The build that was shown let us take a look at just about every mode, with the exception of the recently announced online mode, which reps on hand kept good and vague. We know, at least, that you'll be able to create your own pay-per-view event, and you can even create your own belt to put on the line when competing against a friend. If you lose the championship, then your belt is copied over from your memory card to your opponent's, who gets to keep it.

You'll also find a challenge mode that will give you the option to finish up to 60 challenges across four skill levels: amateur, rising star, superstar, and legend. This flexible mode even lets you re-create your favourite match in WWE history, or you can just earn money for items and upgrades in the game's shop zone. You'll also find a grip of other matches, including a new and improved bra-and-panties match for you to test your skills at.

The game's combat system has seen a number of tweaks since THQ and Yuke's last outing, ranging from an improved submission system that now includes reversals, to the implementation of an all-new mechanic, to the fighting system. You'll be able to choose your character's fighting style--dirty, clean, or neutral--which will affect how he or she handles in combat based on the respective style's unique energy bar. For example, if you manage to fill up your dirty meter by performing appropriately fiendish deeds, you'll be able to perform a special attack that will involve a weapon or some equally cheap tactic. If you fight honourably and manage to fill your clean meter, you'll gain such perks as temporary invincibility, which will serve you well in a match. You'll also find more modest additions to the fight mechanics in the form of pre-flight events that will include such encounters as a pre-match stare-down or a shoving contest that you'll participate in by following onscreen button prompts.

The graphics in the game are shaping up to be an outstanding collection of high-polygon models and environments that provide sharp re-creations of the people and places from both franchises. But while you may think the improved detail would have come at a price, such as a lack of detail in the environments or crowds, WWE SmackDown! Vs. Raw manages to throw down just as well as it used to--and then some. The game appears to improve every element of its presentation without sacrificing performance, which is quite a feat.

The audio in the game will feature the actual voices of almost all the wrestlers featured in the game. The only exceptions will be for classic mat warriors, such as the late Andre the Giant, who are obviously unavailable.

You got that wrong, heel stars are the bad ones that use chairs and face are the ones that cheer.
