Probably.

Got a response from THQ regarding the glitches, here is what they said:

Date 14 November 2005

Further to your correspondence of 14 November 2005

Hello Nick and thank you for contacting us - yes, it does seem as if your game disc is not being scanned correctly. Usually for quickness it's best to return your game disc to the shop and I think your disc may well be damaged but I should suggest perhaps trying the game in a different PS2 just to kill off the possibility that your PS2 is not having problems scanning a disc that's not damaged. Very remote possibility I agree, particularly if your other games are playing fine but it's just to separate out if it is the game disc that is not working rather than the PS2 itself. Hoping this helps. Our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience this is causing you.

I had no choice but to pre-order it. The only places that sell video games in the tri-city area put their stock out on Wednesdays and Thursdays, and even if they put it out on time I have plans for tonight and I don't get off work 'till tomorrow.
In an ideal world I'll get it tomorrow, and maybe I won't have all the time in the world to play... But I have Thursday off, which means BLAM BITCH, GAME DAY!

ROFL Season mode spoilers in black:

HAHAHAHA Spike Dudley doesn't have his real voice! :lol: There is a storyline on the Smackdown side which involves a start up of ECW again. Spike comes to you and says he's not with the ECW brand, but SWERVE, he really is. Anyway, the fact he has someone else doing his voice made me completly lose it and laughed like crazy.

I doubt you'll need to buy a new copy if you keep your receipt or proof of where you bought the game. I'm sure once you hear they have re-released it without the glitches you can go to where ever you bought the game origonally and tell them you have a glitched version and you want to trade it in for an unglitched version. I'm sure they would do it no problem.

Most are minor but it seems that possum,the new sleeper system and not knoxking landers over may be a problem for some. Plus finishers randomly dissapperar for me sometimes. Other than that nothing TOO major but I'm still going to try and get one that works 100%

Dunno if that was a joke or not, but there is not supposed to be music playing during the match.

V
11-14-2005, 09:42 PM
....they removed bgm during matches on purpose?....

wtf? gay

anyway, they don't skid when irish whipped, so i guess no bgm is the only problem, but you say that' not a glitch so i guess we're fine

that sound when you run out of staming is REALLY gay though

other than that no complaints, i've only played one match and the graphics are amazing, gameplay is awesome. stamina isn't terrible like it was on gamecube, it's a great feature.

the momentum meter will take getting used to, personally i liked the old 3 finisher system better, but this is easy to get used to.

also, online isn't up yet for us it seems, going to have to wait

other than that, not playing the game till tomorrow since i have a midterm, anyone else who gets it today, enjoy the game

A really gay thing about season mode in black :mad: :

Right, it seems that you CANT lose the Rumble. So far through the four seasons I've done, I won the Rumble, so decided the throw it to see what other storyline I got going to Mania. But, it turns out that if you get eliminated, Vince McMahon comes out and says the winner cheated by switching his entry number and demands a restart with 6 guys. If you then lose that, you get the choice of a rematch of the six guys or exit. I went to exit and season mode just ended. Complete bullshit if you ask me.

I also really hate the way you can only win the title at Wrestlemania.

Guys, even if you lose your receipts when it comes time to get your new copy of your game, just do this: go to your local video rental store, rent SVR 2006 and see if it's a non-glitch copy. If it is, then swap your copy inside and return it a few days later. :D

11-15-2005, 10:14 AM
Okay, this is what I've gathered.

You don't need Jake to beat the challenges.

Beating the first set gets you the ECW arena, the second gets you the WM 9 arena. I believe the blue cage becomes unlocked after either doing the third set, or unlocking the WM 9 arena.

TerranRich
11-15-2005, 10:16 AM
The blue steel cage is indeed in the game, as there is picture proof of it at IGN. It's there somewhere, trust me. :)

Also, I was right about Monday being the ship date. EBGames still hasn't called me. I think I'm just going to ignore the fact that I pre-ordered it from them and just buy it somewhere else. Did anyone else pre-order it from the EBGames web site and set it for in-store pickup? If so, have they called you yet? I just want to know if they forgot about me or not. :(

I just looked in the instruction booklet and there is nothing about knocking the ladder over, so maybe it was never meant to be in the game, like BGM...

Pushing the ladder is supposed to be in the game because the CPU player does it to me all the time. It sucks that we can't do it. Especially in ladder matches online.

TerranRich
11-15-2005, 02:13 PM
Did you ask them to call you? Because they don't just call if you pre-order it.
When will my pre-ordered game be available in-store?
The in-store arrival date varies for each release based on a store's proximity to where we pick up the product and by the time of day the publisher releases the product to us. In most cases, the store arrival date will be the day after the "online ship date" posted on EBgames.com, although in rare cases it can be the same day.

Regardless, you'll get a call from a friendly sales associate the day your game arrives. We know that you want that hot new game yesterday and we want to be the company that gets it to you quicker than anyone else.

My phone number is right and everything. But I didn't see the part where they'd call you the DAY it arrived. I read somewhere else on the site that they call you a few days beforehand. :wtf: Either way, I can't wait and will pick it up right after work if I don't have a voicemail from them. :p

Just bought the game from Gamstop :love:

It is AWESOME! I just played a single one on one. I was Eddie (RIP) and I did a random pick for the CPU, it turned out to be Chavo. The gameplay is a MAJOR step up from last year and is just like No Mercy on how they slowed it down, but its better that way because its more realistic. The stanima meter is awesome. I mean I was more than halfway full, I went for a missle dropkick, missed, and it drained less than halfway. FUN!

For those who have played online, is it worth buying a router just for this game? I'm sure I'd use it later down the line, but at the moment I don't have another PC and I wouldn't play any other game online...
if you EVER buy a new comp, hell even a Nintendo DS, laptop, etc. etc. you will definately need a router

Honestly, just get one, you will definately use it down the line, and use it a lot. i suggest go straight to wireless, just incase you decide to buy a laptop or nintendo ds.

The only "Glitch" I see is that there is no background music. It doesn't bother me too much, but it would be nice to have. Gonna take tommorow off of school to play the game-ah!

GM mode is tough at first. Gotta get used to that. They added it last minute I believe, hopefully next year they'll make it alot better. Like I don't think you can pick who wins, or I didn't see it, I just rushed through it to see how it is. Love how you can pick the champions.

I'm not sure all the stuff being listed are "glitches"...
but there is something kind of gay about this game.
It seems all the females can do in the ways of gimmick matches is the wack FYF match. No Cage, No Ladder, Nothing... I could live without the First Blood matches, but ALL of the gimmick matches (except Ironman and Submission)? PB&J!

that's a minus .8 from the final score from me right there. Since female CAWs can't even go into that one match, what's the use of them? Thumbs down.

Other than that earlier gripe about the restrictions put on female characters, the game seems to be all kinds of gold.

I think that might be the only complaint I have.

No BGM during matches is the game functioning as designed (I always turned it off in earlier games, especially HCTP with its tendency to hang).

The funny stamina sound effect might be the game functioning as designed as well. It sounds like it was intentional.

When you guys say funny stamina sound, what exactly IS the sound it makes? I'm curious about this, because I've heard a LOT of people mention it.

try reading the manual

seriously though, you need a special stored, you gotta be on the floor

when they do a move on you, hold circle and do the right reversal (grapple or strike) when you get attacked. if you do the right one you pin them, wrong one you lose your special. I think you lose your special if you get it done right as well.

So wait, for Possum pin, you hold circle and counter from the ground? I couldn't find it in the manual.

My only major gripes with the game are it's hard as hell to hit ariel finishers (Eddie or RVD's frogsplash), and the fact that the ref seems to constantly get in the way and get hit, causing DQs (Computer and mine). Worst case scenario, I can turn off DQ, but I'd like to leave it on.

Also, it sucks that all finishers don't have the slowdown (Like Edge's spear doesn't have it).... Also, Edge seems really supercharged, like they sped up his entrance and his spear...

I'm staying home from school today to play it. HAHA!

Was playing a ladder match last night (TWO LADDERS!) against Paul London, I was Hurricane. I superplexed London off the ladder, he got up before me and won. All the matches are very realistic, like I haven't played a match under 5 minutes yet on NORMAL. On the other games I would kill the comp in 2 on normal. Maybe I just need to get used to it.

Few minor things wrong with it that I can't think of off the top of my head. Like I was playing around with create and entrance and I was a little sad that you can't create a taunt or anything, but they have a large list of moves and freaking camera angles and lighting and all that good cheeseburger stuff.

The down of it all is that I noticed you can't throw people into the steps anymore, but that's no big deal.

For the person talking about HHH No-Selling 4 RKO's... Make sure you're momentum meter is full when you do the RKO's and it probably wouldn't hurt to have as much stamina as possible.

Xero
11-16-2005, 11:56 AM
First of all, the Sharpshooter in real life affects the back more than the legs. They SHOULD have made it also affect the legs, though.

Second of all you can knock the stairs out. I've done it plenty of times. If you do a normal whip they run into shoulder-first and if you do a strong whip they go OVER it knees-first. You just have to line it up perfectly (you have to hit about the middle of the stairs).

TerranRich
11-16-2005, 12:03 PM
I've done a Sharpshooter, and had it done to me. Trust me, Kenny, it affects the back 80% and the legs like 20%. :p

The weight system is awesome: to choose a weight class, you must choose an actual weight number. It appears that (roughly!!) 100-140 is Diva, 140-200 is Cruiserweight, 200-240 is Light Heavyweight, 240-280 is Heavyweight, and 280-400 is Super Heavyweight. Pretty neat. And YES I know those numbers are way off, but I'm at work and can't check it right now.

Kenny
11-16-2005, 12:03 PM
Oh that's cool, yeah I haven't hit them perfectly yet. In the last game it was a lot easier to do.

The only problem I have with the sharpshooter only affecting the legs is if you want to use it you have to keep doing work on the legs which gets boring and repetitive.

Okay, so is it just me or are Tables matches finally challenging? It seems to take a few times to put someone through a table.

Tables matches were always too ridiculously easy. You could beat them in under 10 seconds.

The easiest way to get this shit done is with a gameshark. Some of this shit is ridiculous. The comp never EVER steals a taunt.

Yeah, thats the sort of stuff I mean, if it was straight forward matches, it would be fine, would ge them eventually, but this sort of crap is what is annoying, anyway round it other than gameshark? any tips or easy ways of getting it done that anyone knows?

I wanted to get the reverse the possum thing over and done with so I went to the options to take off the time limit on matches, go have the match me being hassan and the comp hogan. After 19 minutes the comp finally does a possum pin and I kick out. Does the you finish a challenge screen come up? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Apparently you can't touch any of the options to do the challenges.

<font color=white>You push the ladder over by pressing square when people are on it. Stand in the middle (like you're gonna walk under it) and press square and direction towards the ladder. Works every time for me</font>

That way only works if two people are on the ladder otherwise if I do that and only one person is on the ladder my player starts to climb it.

I just got this, and for my first match, I played as Dupree/Conway and defended the WTT against Spike and Jindrak.

I could focus onto every other player, ASIDE from the illegal opponent. I'd try to hit a finisher and knock the illegal opponent off of the ring apron, but the arrow would never face him. I had to RUN at him, do a knee lift that was meant for the legal opponent by pushing right and X, and then try to make the cover. Is it impossible to target the inactive opponent?

The only reason I won that match is because when the referee was counting, Spike Dudley's elbows were missing completely. He was in the ring trying to attack me like hell though.

McDoogle

Hold the R1 button. Thats what I do and it selects the target closest to me or in the options select the option to take off the auto targeting so you can press R1 and it rotates threw the different wrestlers.

<font color=goldenrod>My SD roster in GM Mode is awesome

Carlito, Charlie Haas, Chavo Guerrero, Chris Benoit, Chris Jericho, Christian, Eddie Guerrero, Edge, Eugene, Heidenreich, The Hurricane, Kurt Angle, Muhammad Hassan, Rob Van Dam, Robert Conway, Shawn Michaels, Shelton Benjamin, Steven Richards, Tajiri, and Triple H

The major gripe I have with this game is not being able to edit season stats anymore.......I've had 3 matches against him and I'm already sick of HHH basically being a God......if I could edit season stats I'd lower him to a high-80....90 at the most, 95 is ridiculous</font>

Just out of curiosity, what model PS2 do you guys use? I've heard people complain about some kind of grinding noise, but I haven't heard it.

I got my PS2 last July (it was a network adapter bundle with some ATV game), and it hasn't given me any problems at all, knock on wood. Just curious as to what you guys use.

YES YES YES!!!! FROM THE GAMEFAQS BOARD BITCHES!!!!!!!! This is confirmed by Zurick, meaning it fucking works!! THIS ROCKS!!

UNLOCK JAKE W/O A PSP, GAMESHARK/SAVE, ETC!!!

Simply finish GM Mode's first year, then draft him in the 2nd year as one of your three picks, then he's unlocked.

Credit - Hoshal16 for news
Credit - ZurickSavesYou for confirmation

So you just need to finish GM Mode and he's unlocked?

You don't need to have the better show or the more fans or money. You just need to finish a year of it and he's unlocked?

Well I have Original Model of the PS2, and it makes the grinding noise when I try to play Playstation(1) games, and when I open the disk tray it grinds.

Oh, and what is that a pic of in your avatar?:?:

It looks like a cartoon woman.

lol, it's Ember McLain (a pretty awesome villain) from that show Danny Phanton on Nickelodeon. I may be 19, but dammit, that's a good show. One of the best Nicktoons in years.


In regards to the question about Jake the Snake, I -THINK- you just have to go through a year, win or not, in order to get him. :p

Just got back from online after about two hours. Anyone see me? I'm xero126...

The last match I had was Benoit (me) vs. Eddie. 15 minute classic. :'(

Is online ALWAYS a bit laggy? My button response is off by about a half a second. After a few matches I got used to it, but... :-\

I'm going to buy a new ethernet cable tomorrow. It's a hell of a lot cheaper than buying a router for now and all I have to do is hard-reset my modem when I want to play.

If anyone wants to be a cheap ass in challenge mode, simply play it on 2 players and you can do as many challanges as you like without needing to fight at the same time.

Personally I'm doing the challanges the honest way.

If your PS2 grinds you need to WD-40 the rods the cd deck slides on. One guy in my dorm had white gook all over his somehow and he ended up destroying every game he put in his system.

It is alot of trouble to open up though.

Holy shit, this game rules! Played a couple of exhibition matches earlier, now I've started my GM mode. I got 16 of the 20 guys I said I wanted earlier. Damn RAW took RVD, Chavo, Cena, and Orton from me. I got Edge, Hassan, Jordan, and Danny Basham in their place. Simming my first match, and the AI is so good. It really looks like I'm watching SmackDown. It's Paul London vs. Charlie Haas vs. Tajiri. Doing three triple threat matches on the first show, then the three winners will battle for the Cruiserweight Title next week. Match has already gone 10:30. Main event is Angle vs. Michaels vs. Benoit vs. Guerrero in a ladder match for the World Title. Fantastic fantastic game.

the only thing i don't like about the game is you can't switch camera angles

every wrestler is so small and the game has so much wasted space outside of 1 on 1 matches with the side view. this wasn't as bad when the camera was behind the ring rather than to the side

other than that, amazing game so far

The only thing that pisses me off is that cheapassed sleeper system.

I was playing as Jericho fighting Taker earlier, and it took me 35 minutes to win with that system, despite the fact that everything was red but his arms. When it got to three, he would always somehow manage to escape it. Somehow I magically did it at the end. Anyone know anything about how that system works? It didn't tell ME to press X, but it told the CPU controlled Undertaker to hit X to escape.

Cool King: Correction. You have to WIN your GM mode year to unlock Jake, supposedly. Going to try it later. If I finish it before you do, I'll post it. Zurick posted it though, so I'm quite sure that it's legitimate. He actually posted pics too.

The only real "glitch" I found was the stats for getting your created wrestlers maxed. Not really a glitch but does seem to be some sort of accidental loophole.
