"Smackdown 3, that bad?"

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?

It has not froze, they just dont update on weekends.

If not, at least i have Pro Evo coming on Friday.


lucky you, I'm going to have to wait until X-mas unless my luck turns and I win at gameaday, but that is unlikely because GAD has froze

Well i just hope i enjoy it, its been paid for now so there is no canceling the game.

dony worry

My spelling was a bit lousy in that last post.
Only just woke up really.

Why dony the game developers of SD2 just wait a couple of years,then bring out a resctably large SM game with all the add ons that they have thought of.Im quite a big fan of SD but even im getting rather dissapointed by the smack down series.

Is this game worth my money?


It's a bit of yes and no really, yes because it's on PS2 and no because of the story mode, but I am currently playing it right now in story mode and I am enjoying it, I loved the storylines but they seem to repeat themselves over and over, but you can look around for a tag team partner or get Earl Hebner to come with you when you go for the hardcore belt and finally you can go see the comissioner with his assistant Tajiri.
One note, it's the wwf from 6 months ago so no alliance and all that, but there are quite a few references to alliance members in create mode, for example when looking for a taunt you can select rob van dam's pointing at himself thingy, or the al mighty spinneroni not sure on spelling though.

I ordered this game last week, and to be honest i did very little research on it as i expected it to be as good as all the other ones, which in my opinion were all great.

I played the demo of SD3 on the OPSM2 disc and thought it was great, it played so much better, slower to add to the 'realism' and that dodgy roll away had dissapeared. I thought great, its going to be good.

But now i here the main part of the game is crap, the Story mode. On the last ones this part has been great, and was really fun to play, guiding your wrestler through the ranks ect. And now on SD3 i here all this has gone, and when you loose/get the title, thats that, done.

That has really dissapointed me, it seems its just an update with improved graphics and im starting to think i should have saved my money and keep playing SD2.
