Quite a lot of people have been hugely dissapointed with SD3, I am one of them, mainly because of the story being cut to 4 or 5 matches. This is what many people reserved or bought the game for.
But the game itself has had some improvements, such as how the game plays as smooth as the graphics look (thanks to the PS2) and the vast variety of ..well... everything in create a wrestler,
But for those of you that have bought the game, have you really been dissapointed?

IE is bundled with Windows.
Windows is bundled with Everything.
When it comes to PC software, the general public, on the whole, don't like to fiddle.

On a personal note, I've tried Netscape and Opera. Simple fact is, if you do as much surfing over different domains as I do, IE is simply the best because that's the first web browser that most site designers build their site functions for.

My sentiments exactly FM. But then everybody has their own preferences.

I'm trying out Internet Explorer today. I'm having a little difficulty working out why more people use it than Netscape.

Smackdown 3 is a great game but it feels like a step backwards!! How long before we see Smackdown 4!!

As I keep saying, the worst part of it is the lack of a Create-A-PPV mode.

And I can't seem to get 5 of the hidden items...ah well doesn't matter.

Also, in a ladder or cage match the computer opponent will try and win straight away, which can be very annoying.

I managed to create a very lifelike Booker T, and should be able to create Too Cool with their proper music as well (unfortunately, I can't seem to make them dance when they come out {:( )

So, overall:

Good points:
Excellent graphics.
Superb gameplay.
Great entrances.

Bad points:
Poor Story Mode.
NO CREATE-A-PPV
NO TOO COOL
Computer opponents can be silly and make matches last about 5 seconds.

To be perfectly honest, I prefer Smackdown 2, as it has a better roster, a better story mode and create-a-ppv.
