Nov 13, 2007 It seems that when we previewed WWE SvR we overestimated the role that the new fighting styles would play. To recap, each wrestler specialises in two of eight grappling techniques - Brawler, Powerhouse, Technical, Showman, Submission Expert, Dirty and Hardcore - and the theory is that you use each style's strengths tactically against your opponent. So, for instance, Powerhouses like Batista can go on short-lived unstoppable rampages, Dirty fighters like Edge can jab their rivals ...

Sep 17, 2007 In the real world, an ass-kicking is an ass-kicking. It doesn't matter if the other guy is a street brawling gang banger, your martial artist dorm buddy, the bully on the playground, or the girl scout from down the street - the fundamental problem is someone is pounding their knuckles into your face and stomping on your spleen. As such, any further details are ultimately inconsequential. In the world of professional wrestling, however, the fight is largely secondary to the show. ...   » Read Full WWE SmackDown! vs RAW 2008 preview

"Recently I was playing against someone and he was fighting like Stone Cold Steve Austin," says Taku Chihaya, director of the new SmackDown!, "Not because of the character, but just because he never stopped. He was going crazy." This is what SmackDown's all about. It's not about the wrestlers just looking like the real thing - although they do, right down to the Sandman's grimace and Lashley's terrifying biceps - it's about them feeling like the real thing. It's about Rey Mysterio bouncing ...   » Read Full WWE SmackDown! vs RAW 2008 preview

Gradually, the WWE games review scores have, like a greasy tortoise, been slipping slowly downhill - due mainly to the fact that theyve started to feel the same, year in, year out. We want this decline to be arrested and SmackDown! 2008, the series PS3 debut - following the cancellation of last years planned next-gen wrestler - might do just that. Weve already reported on this years new features, although well clarify some of them in greater ...   » Read Full WWE SmackDown! vs RAW 2008 preview

Though they probably won't feature Donald Trump shaving the head of WWE chairman Mr. McMahon like this year's WrestleMania, both the wrestling and gaming worlds are eagerly anticipating what the next round of WWE-licensed titles will hold. In much the way Vince McMahon will be more aerodynamic without his gray coiffure, the SmackDown vs. Raw series is streamlining to be even more intuitive to control while also offering more gameplay depth. As the former rogue promotion of Extreme ...   » Read Full WWE SmackDown! vs RAW 2008 preview
