This review is from: WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2007 (Video Game) I really love this game, as well as nearly every THQ wrestling game since WCW VS NWO: World Tour. Still, there are to many details that lack polish, to many bugs and glitches to give it a perfect rating. It's without a doubt the game that crashes the most in my 360 since I bought it, and I've played a lot. It also has a bug that makes my 360 crash every time my created superstar is going to contend for a custom title belt, right after the belt is removed from the HDD (it most be temporarily removed before a title match and re-saved after the match) making me lost the belt and all the money invested in it. It's not that much of a big deal but it's only one of the details that scream the game was rushed. Another one is the intros, both of them (Raw and Smackdown) are displayed in low-res and full screen only, which is annoying because I bought a widescreen 720p LCD HDTV to play my XBOX 360 games and to have a cheap intro in an HD "next-gen" game makes no sense. Also, the roster feels outdated. The superstar with the highest overall in the roster is Kurt Angle, who's currently at TNA, and superstars like Jeff Hardy and CM Punk are nowhere to be found. There's no hope of updating the roster through downloadable content, since the game does not support it. Another huge letdown is the commentary, which is completely carryover from the 2006 edition. This completely sucks if you played the previous version, and also the fact that Smackdown currently has Bradshaw instead of Tazz doesn't help the game feel less outdated. The game does look great and the sweat effect rules. The divas look hotter than ever and the story mode is way better that 2006's. There's a lot of fun in this game including earning the Money In The Bank trophy (I got it on my second try, my brothers are still trying). THQ should consider adding content download support for the next installment, as well as updates to fix the bugs in 2007. If they do this, maybe they can exceed the glory achieved by WWF: No Mercy in its time. 14 of 18 people found the following review helpful: Are you ready? No... i said Are you ready!, = Fun: This review is from: WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2007 (Video Game) SvR 2007 is the best game in the series to date. It still has the same fighting style from previous games that we have come to love. The sound and graphics in this game are awesome. The superstar roster is up to date (for the most part) Eugene, Highlanders, Spirit squad, Cryme tyme, MvP, to name a few arn't in the game. This would be my biggest dissapointment with the game but other then that everything is great. Season mode is better then it ever has been giving you more freedom while progressing through the season then previous games. Create a superstar is better then ever going into more depth. Locker room is now bigger and can be customized even more then SvR 2006. You can fight in the crowd in SvR 2007 and grab signs and weapons from the crowd, also new this year enviromental grapples you can smack your opponets head off the stairs and choke them with the camera cord. The backstage is huge. New Unlockable legends such as Bam Bam Bigelow, Mr Perfect, Dusty Rhodes, Cactus Jack, Dude Love, Shane Mcmahon as well as some from previous games Steve Austin, The Rock, etc.. Challenge mode is back from SvR 2006 Trophies and belts to unlock. I think i covered the bulk of the game. - just a note for anyone not sure: Dx is in the game, you just need to put Triple H and Shawn Micheals in a tag match to get them to come out to Dx Entrance so thats a plus no Dx woulda been weak. My favorite part of the game is Mr Kennedy's Entrance lol it's the best, i watch the whole thing every time. This is the best wrestling game out to date, if your looking for a fun game with endless replay value get this game. Something i didn't mention was online mode, i havn't personally played online yet but i did in SvR 2006 and it was a lot of fun to create your own character and go on and play with thousands of other WWE fans. 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful:  Almost Perfect, By = Fun: This review is from: WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2007 (Video Game) I'll start off by saying the game itself is really good. If you have any interest in the WWE, you'll be hooked as soon as you pop it in. Graphics are greatly improved (even over the already good looking 2006 game), the new fighting style is fun, and the career mode is greatly improved from the previous installment. I'm the person who needs to create my own wrestler and drag him through the storyline and make him the main guy on the show, so if you're like me, you'll LOVE the create a wrestler and create an entrance features. With the good does come the bad though. I'm not sure if it's just me, but I feel as if the title was rushed onto the shelves and the game as a whole is an unfinished project. The roster is lacking pretty badly (you won't find King Booker, instead the 6 month old version Booker T.... who has King Bookers titantron movie during his entrance.. huh?), the game seems buggy at times. I noticed my created wrestler would occasionally lose his custom move list and revert back to the default list... which I'm still not sure why it happens sometimes. There are some other frustrating things, for instance if you don't use a real WWE wrestlers entrance moves (and instead go with Superstar 1 for example) your wrestler won't wear a belt when he comes out. Also, there's no static belt location for created entrances, so if you mix up the moves your wrestler could be coming down with the belt around his waist, then over his shoulder, then carrying it in his hand, and then it not being visible at all. While overall, the game is great and would certainly be appreciated by WWE fans and fans of wrestling games in the past, it's far from perfect. I would reccomend it for now, and I hope the future installments will correct the small errors. I'm still waiting for the flawless, megahit, WWE title to eventually hit the shelves. With 2006 and 2007, it appears they aren't far off. |
