It's a decent roster, although I'm not sure why they left some guys in who left ages ago. Poor Rosey
His tag partner gets in but he doesn't, even though he is tag champ.Glad to see London, Hassan, Master and Snitsky in |

Apparently, this is from GameRadar newsletter regarding SVR2006:
Classic Superstars # Andre the Giant ($200,000) # Animal ($50,000) # Bret Hart ($200,000) # Hawk ($50,000) # Hulk Hogan ($500,000) # Jim Neidhart ($100,000) # Mankind ($50,000) # The Rock ($200,000) # Steve Austin ($200,000) # The Blue Meanie ($25,000) # Bubba Ray Dudley ($100,000) # D-Von Dudley ($100,000) # Hollywood Nova ($25,000) # The Sandman ($150,000) # Tommy Dreamer ($150,000) Classic Costumes # Chris Jericho ($5,000) # Kane ($10,000) # Rey Mysterio ($5,000) # Rob Van Dam ($5,000) # Spike Dudley ($5,000) # Steven Richards ($5,000) # Undertaker ($10,000) Classic Managers (non-playable) # Jimmy Hart ($20,000) # Paul Bearer ($20,000) Classic Arenas # Classic WWE ($100,000) # Classic ECW ($50,000) Sorry, but that's all we have for now regarding the legendary superstars of Smackdown vs. Raw 2006. It seems as if WWE is trying to make the most out of the ECW product by including several unlockable goodies from ECW. It's not like we mind though, we're very excited to see how this all plays out. The WWE side of the legends roster is a bit stale, but the addition of the Blue World Order more than makes up for it all. - BRIAN VESKOF Editor-in-Chief -------------- Not gonna lie, the thought of this all has me foaming at the mouth...........but I won't believe it until IGN says something If it's true, we can hand it the "Best Wrestling Game Ever" title without question |

Let's assume for a second that the above information about the ECW unlockables is true.
Does this mean that the game will include "Enter Sandman?" |

Not trying to be a buzz kill but I doubt "Enter Sandman" will be included in the game. They would have to work out a contract with Metallica in order to be able to use the song and from what I understand Metallica's asking price for the use of any of their stuff is pretty high. Look at the ONS dvd, WWE actually played a instrumental version on the dvd when sandman was coming in and took out the crowd singing the song.

Then they'll insert a generic version of Enter Sandman in there. Good enough. I'll just rip the game, burn it with new music, and play that.

If Metallica's version isn't in, maybe they can get Motorhead to let them use their version...
I wonder if his entrance will take ages like IRL

IGN's most popular recurring feature is back and bigger than ever! Returning for the fifth year in a row, the SmackDown Countdown is the world's coolest sneak peek at the lineup of THQ's latest installment in its line of incredibly successful wrestling videogames.
As has been expected every year, WWE SmackDown! vs. RAW 2006 is the largest and flashiest version of the game thus far. Not only have the online elements been improved beyond the barebones connectivity of last year, but the overall number of gaming modes has been advanced as well. Bar Room Brawls, Buried Alive Matches, and more realistic Cage confrontations are just a few of the refinements that have been made while additional upgrades to the AI, graphics, and grappling mechanics have been implemented as well. Of course, one of the most dramatic changes this year has been to the wrestlers themselves. Not only have all their textures and polygon counts been increased over last season, but their entrances have been motion captured as well. Each grappler also has been granted two additional attribute types over last year (Hardcore and Stamina) and roughly 50% of all moves in the game have been reanimated. If that's not an improvement, we don't know what is. While all these new features can't be experienced by our readers until SmackDown ships later this November, we're still dedicated to bring WWE fans the best pre-release coverage they could hope for. Over the next 11 weeks, we'll be highlighting all 50 current superstars and divas as well as more than a dozen different legends from WWE history. We'll be doing a new wrestler every week day from now until then and as a special treat for SmackDown and RAW fans, we'll make sure to customize our Monday and Thursday grapplers to match the shows from which they hail. Sound cool? Cool! But enough with the buildup already, let's get this party started! Sit back, relax, and enjoy today's Countdown superstar, The Undertaker!

Since I can't seem to find the link to the pic, here are Taker's attributes:
Strength: 9 Submission: 8.5 Durability: 10 Technique: 8.5 Speed: 5 Charisma: 8.5 Hardcore: 8 Stamina: 7.5 Overall: 91 Guess they are gonna be generous with attributes again this year... Watched most of the Taker video stuff.....looking pretty damn good. The detail in Taker's entrance is tremendous.....especially when he gets in the ring and you can see he has his "rolled up eyes" and then they go back to normal. His post-win celebration is great as well. Everything seems to be going smoothly.....the sound effects are still way too loud, but oh well. Noticed something: a "Press L2 to reverse" button came up when Orton (Taker's opponent) was trying to pull Taker's foot from the outside...hinting that possibly you can reverse that move now (and if you can....THANK GOD!) Random note from the "Pain" vid: Listening to the commentary, they mentioned that Orton is a Raw superstar, which....of course....leads me to believe that they will be using pre-lottery rosters unless they fix it. Anyways, the anticipation for the game builds........by my estimation, the last day of the current roster countdown will be November 2nd.....strangely, last year I remember them announcing the Legends on the same day as the current roster, which they didn't do this year...so I have a sneaking suspicion they might be hiding something big...though it may just be because this year's legends roster is fairly obvious as is. Can't wait to see Friday's countdown.....methinks it will be a Raw guy, probably Triple H, Shawn Michaels, or Orton (if they are indeed using old rosters) |

This is damn exciting! I fucking LOVE IGN now for this, I never knew they did this. Then again, at this time last year I was on my WWE-watching hiatus.
I mean, damn, 6 vids for Taker's day. I cannot wait until Hassan's, Eugene's, or even Carlito's day.

HAve they said much about season mode yet? I didn't like that you couldn't carry over roster switches etc. from one season to another. I liked that about HCTP.
Actually, could you even switch shows in SvR if you wanted to? I don't even remember. |

There was a story in SvR where someone was after you and there was a bounty for whoever took you out (HHH/Goldberg style) and you get drafted to the rival show for a month or so and then drafted back. I think thats as close as you got to being drafted to the other show.

Just a thought. If Rosey hasnt been included in the game then doesnt that mean:
a)they lose the Tag Team Belts soon. b)there aren't going to be the Tag Titles again on the Game. |

Disturbed's Countdown Notes: The Undertaker
With the return of IGN's Countdown means the return of me writing notes up for you guys
(even if Big Vito did steal Undertaker from me )Anyway, I got the picture from IGN, so there! ![]() Video 1: The enterance It's the thing everyone bitches about every single year, if Ric Flair has a hair out of place people will bitch. So alot is expected from this year's enterance's, especially with the increased pollygons to the wrestlers. GONG! Smoke rises up across the walkway and Tony Chemel announces The Undertaker, JUST LIKE HE DOES ON TV! Taker comes out and begins his slow walk down the the ring. The detail on him in incredible. I'm loving the lighting on this enterance, it seems spot on. Taker climbs up the steps and into the ring. Tony watches Taker as he enters which is really good, means they are not just static models. Taker takes off his hat and does the strange eye roll thing, good god the detail on his face Enterance last 1 minute 37 seconds.Video 2: Fight time part I Video starts out with Taker locking up with Orton. It seems now whenever your opponant attempts a move on you the reversal button pops up under your momentum meter, bit gay. Taker knee's Orton to the gut then lifts him up in a choke hold. Taker punches Orton around abit before Orton rests on the ropes. Taker then delivers a reannimated Big Boot from the ropes, I'm liking that alot. Although it sounds like Orton got smacked with an elastic band when he got booted. Video 3: Fight time part II Orton manages to get a punch and a dropkick in on Taker before Taker turns the tides on him. I must say, even though this is an early build, the commentry is great, it is so much better than last year. Tazz talks about Orton's acomplishments but goes on to say that they happened on Raw and not Smackdown, where they have a different kind of competition. Taker hits Orton with a running scoop slam type move before giving him a sidewalk slam. Taker takes a rest and recovers some stamina, when Orton gets back up Undertaker drops him with a nasty looking DDT. Video 4: Fight time part III Undertaker uses the strong Irish Whip to send Orton crashing to the outside. Taker stays in the ring and recovers more stamina. When Orton gets back in the ring Taker kicks him in the gut and gives him The Last Ride. Michael Cole and Tazz are on this move straight away and say "Someones going for a ride Cole" "And it looks like it's the Last Ride" pretty good. For some reasons Lillian starts talking, repeatingly saying "introducing" pretty funny. Taker then sets up Orton for another Last Ride, which draws a big roar from the crowd. Taker then pins Orton for the three count. Video 5: The end Cole and Tazz continue to talk and wrap up the match. Undertaker gets down and does his kneeling taunt thing as the lights go out/turn purple. Orton is still in the ring, looking in alot of pain. ![]() ![]()

Holy.....shit. If this is what they are producing from a game that isn't even complete yet, then god knows how amazing the final build is going to be. I'm loving the commentry, even if it is still alittle off, but the game looks and plays amazing. I'm getting more hyped each time I watch these videos.
