The official Smackdown vs Raw 2008 thread

[DAMN iNATOR]

Me.

Well I kinda figured that, but I meant other than you...:roll:

Mainly because the answer is nobody!

How do you know that?

[DAMN iNATOR]

How do you know that?

Because nobody in their right minds would play as some one who knows only 2 moves. The Leg Drop and the Hulk Up combo. He’s just not someone who had a lot of skill.

And yet he is one of the most loved wrestlers ever. As hard as it is to believe and as odd as it might sound, there's more to wrestling then just wrestling.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Okay, so unless it's a struggle submission, it can't make someone submit... Fucking worthless. So essentially the ankle locks, tazzmission, texas cloverleaf, spinning toe hold, etc, are all worthless. Brilliant.

Exactly, it should have been all the old system, or all as the new system. Putting in submissions that dont do anything is retarded. I like the idea of SS but being that there are only 10 of them, its kind of a waste.

When you consider some of the wrestlers in the game hogans "moveset" probably looks massive. :lol:

Yeah, his massive legs maybe...:shifty:

[Champion of Europa]

A friend bought this for his PS3 and we've been playing it like crazy.

We mostly play as our tag team, 70's Sex. The team is comprised of World Heavyweight Champion Frankie "The Cunt Pummeler" Francis, Randy "Big Daddy" Body, and Rudy "Fistum" Smackbooty.

[Skippord]

lol, Fistum

[Fignuts]

lol this game is so bad.

[Kalyx triaD]

The online mode not having a lobby/party system is one of the three biggest disappointments I have with the game, along with the roster and the targeting mechanic.

[Zeeboe]

I've already played a storyline with Foley, and am now playing one with Piper, and I'm just curious if anyone knows if there are any other angles that involve any legends?

[James Steele]

I created Chuck Norris (with badass entrance) and Dog the Bounty Hunter (with stupid entrance). Together they form...
















TEAM BADASS

[D Mac]

Snitsky is the new World Heavyweight Champion. Won the Beat the Clock sprint.

[DAMN iNATOR]

lol this game is so bad.


and for anybody too stupid to figure out the obvious, he does NOT mean bad in the good sense...

[D Mac]

LOL this thread is dying already.

[Disturbed316]

I won the gm of the year last night, so easy to do if you know what your doing.

[KingofOldSchool]

Is there any good sites to get CAWs from?

[jcmoorehead]

I use Caws.ws for mine, covers all systems and usually has some pretty nice ones.

Anyway as much as I liked the game and I did enjoy it I just haven't been able to bring myself to play it for about three weeks now. I don't know what it is but I just have no desire to go back on it. Maybe that'll change over the Christmas Holidays but with games like COD4 and Mass Effect to play I just can't bring myself to play this.

[D Mac]

Yeah created my own guy and tried 24/7 mode with him, but 24/7 is so god awful I have no interest in completing it. Probably going to sell this soon.

[Lord-Of-Darkness]

Gonna be honest, me too. I've never sold a Smackdown game before the new one comes out, or around that time anyway. But this one is just failing to keep my interest. I went back and won KOTR with Hart last night, which was ok. And started a 16 man Road to Wrestlemania Tourny, but got fed up.

I went on to play Spiderman 3, which I've been stuck on for a while(fucking Kraven) and staying stuck on that and getting frustrated was more fun than playing smackdown.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Yeah, I totally gave up on this. I was going to buy it from gamefly for pS3 for 35 bucks, but it just wasn't worth it to me. The system needs an overhaul.

[Disturbed316]

Online is still so god damn awfull. Everyone uses cheap/repeating moves over and over again. Its always big boots or spears, totally gay. Done pretty much everything I can do in single player, not gonna touch online unless its against someone I know.

I will be getting gold for christmas, so I think I will make use of the game then, like you said, to play against people I know.

Which means I will be up for kicking your ass just like last year :cool:

[Disturbed316]

And I'll steal the victory during triple threat matches, like last year :cool:

[Lord-Of-Darkness]

:rant: I'll get you one day!! :mad:

Coincidently, theres always time for a HIAC match where the cell isn't actually used if I remember rightly....

[D Mac]

I went ahead and said fuck this and sold it today. Good riddance. Got Guitar Hero 2 since I never played it and is something I probably will enjoy. Unlike this piece of shit. :mad:

[Funky Fly]

You all knew it was gonna be gay. Why is everyone so pissed?

[D Mac]

I thought custom music would make up for it. But no. :(

If it had create a PPV mode I would play around with it a little more but it didn't.

[XL]

If there's one thing that annoys me about the SD series it's this...


You can't be a heel in season mode!!


It's been like that for years! Case in point...

This year's game, I start my season as Edge and the first storyline is to become the Number 1 Contender. This ends with me needlessly beating HBK to a bloody mess during the match and then sucker punching him after picking up the win. This makes me a heel right?

So, the next show I end up fueding with Carlito over a film role. So, not only has the Number 1 Contendership been forgotten but, by way of the storyline, I'm a face again!

I just wanna be a heel!!!!!!!!!

[Funky Fly]

In 06 it turns out you hit Teddy Long in story mode.

[Lord-Of-Darkness]

lol, I was just about to say that Funky, but yeah, theres a total lack of choice to be heel though. I wish at the begining of every chapter it would give you an option that chose what road you take for the time being

[Lord-Of-Darkness]

btw, has anyone found anymore cheat codes for this yet? Its gonna take me forever to do Hall of Fame and I can't be fucked. But I want the extra titles for exhibition. My caw needs to be rocking the Million Dollar Belt. I just can't see them adding the cheat code mode just for the 2 cheats I've found.

[Evil Vito]

In 06 it turns out you hit Teddy Long in story mode.

<font color=goldenrod>It does? When I played through I could have swore Chris Jericho came out and claimed responsibility</font>

[Disturbed316]

The hal of fame stuff is really easy. You dont even have to do them all to get HoF status.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

24/7 mode is such a headache.

The best story I've had so far is when Tommy Dreamer re-introduced the hardcore title and gave me it to defend under 24/7 rules. But like all the other stories there was flaws and glitches all over the place.

[Lord-Of-Darkness]

Really? Awesome. Just only did the auto start ones, and didn't do any more because 'Build up your own title' and 'Build a team to max stats and defeat DX' made me think 'I can't be fucked'

All that wondering round before the show winds me up no end cos you always end up shaking hands with the guy you've been fueding with!! The whole thing is utterly pointless!!

[Disturbed316]

The title one is pretty easy really. I created the european title had about 10 matches at got it to max stats. Haven't bothered with the tag team one as they are gay.

[Disturbed316]

I swear some of these acheivements are broken/glitched, I eliminated everyone from the rumble but didn't get the acheivement for throwing 20 people out, grrrrr :mad:

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>I'll probably give this game a rent once Impact comes out. I'll rent both......kinda thinking they'll both suck, then return them.

FPR is getting me by just fine...but just for shits and giggles, I asked for a used copy of HCTP for X-Mas, the king of SD games IMO. Wish I hadn't traded it in with all my other games.</font>

[Lord-Of-Darkness]

You know what I miss? The double count out system, when you'd do a high impact move and run out of stamina and the ref would cound you both out, I thought that was really cool, but they took it out after like one game. Wankers.

[Disturbed316]

I think I only ever saw that once when playing, which is probably why they took it out.

[James Steele]

They need to find a way to put more grapple moves in again. The UCMs aren't that important.

[IC Champion]

Just got the game yesterday, not bad.

[CSL]

Just started 24/7 mode for the first time since I picked this up and it might be the worst thing ever.
