Raw for PS2, = Fun: This review is from: WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2011 (Video Game) THQ has made this last series installment for the Playstation 2. But as to be expected THQ waters it down and some features are not available for this version. But I'm not complaining, at least we get one more PS2 title. Here are the games features and my verdict. WWE UNIVERSE MODE: This is a cool new addition. It combines exhibition and career mode together. You or the com can set up matches to either play or simulate. If you do play matches the game will start keeping track and respond to everything you do. Rivalries can be set up depending on your actions in a match. Also it can unpredictable. You might suddenly get attacked on your way to the ring, or Vince Mcmahon could come out and talk to you. It's never ending and you will be very entertained for sure. ROAD TO WRESTLEMANIA- This mode once again returns with 5 stories, Chris Jericho, Christian, John Cena, Rey Mysterio, and Undertaker's where you try to break his streak. The Undertaker story is the best in my opinion. CREATE A STORY MODE- Returns with even better fashion! Lots more new things to choose from! 2010 experimented with this idea, but 2011 takes it to another level. SUPERSTAR ABILITIES- These are still here, but some changes have been made. Remember the huge list of 21 to choose from? Now it's been scaled down to only 11. Some abilities are now assigned to all superstars while some of course have been taken out... Removed: Evasive Dodge Lock Pick Ref Shield Taunt Thief Hardcore Resurrection Possum Pin Fan Favorite Assigned To All: Object specialist Exploder Turnbuckle Attack Pull Back Attacks Strong Strikes List: Remember in 2010 some were already available, while some you had to work for? Well in 2011 all of them are already available. Dirty Pin Move Thief Hammer Throw Resiliency Durability Kip-Up Fired Up Ring Escape Springboard Dives Outside Dives Leverage Pin (NEW!) (You can reverse a groggy grapple or running attack into a pin of your own!) SUPERSTAR ATTRIBUTES- THQ finally brings something new to the table on this one. Everytime you created a superstar you had to jump through a million matches to build up your attributes. 2010 you had the level up system which wasn't too bad. But now you can set up all your caw attributes right out of the box. This time they are only in 5 point incriments. You can even go and edit attributes on WWE superstars. But this time THQ forces you to stick with realistic skill levels depending on weight class. (glad this returned) ROSTER- Better than ever. Offering 70 superstars. Legends have returned! Jimmy Superfly Snuka, Terry Funk, The Rock, Steve Austin, AND WE FINALLY GET JAKE THE SNAKE ROBERTS! (none of that 2006 crap!) CREATE A FINISHER- Returns once again with more new options for crazy cool moves! MATCH CREATOR- Another new addition from THQ all you do is select the type of ring, and the list of rules. But for some reason I've tried this and it doesn't feel real special. But it's also there when you go to a regular match on the versus screen. Although there are things about this game I'm happy with, I have a few cons as well... Bret Hart- Is not availbale unless you pre order from Best Buy! Why in the world is Bret Hart an exclusive? It's rather pointless because Bret has been available in past Svr games. If you wanna make somebody an exclusive how bout people that were never in the game like Doink The Clown or something! CREATE A SUPERSTAR- Nothing Special and very disapointing. The same stuff from the last 2 years. Wouldn't of hurt THQ to at least add some new parts. They really dropped the ball here. VERDICT: All in all this game is very solid and keeps taking things up a notch.But this version is only worth getting if you don't have any other system. The new Gen stytems obviously offer a lot more like graphics,better blood animations, new caw parts etc. A Svr game will never be perfect and will always have flaws, but you know you're going to get entertained none the less. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful:  My review on WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2011 for PS2, = Fun: Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2011 (Video Game) I have every game in the entire series and this is the best svr game there is! The graphics are great. The Road to WrestleMania is alot of fun! I love the free-roaming idea and you can start a fight with almost anybody to increase your stamina, momentum, etc. further. The Time Machine is a awesome feature. The WWE Universe Mode is kinda disappointing cause I expected a whole bunch of different cutscenes, but I ended up seeing the same ones over and over again. The Story Designer's pretty cool. The Match Creator is a good feature, but it could've been better. Overall, it's great game and it's very enjoyable to play. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: Will This Be It?!, By Mike (Here and There) - See all my reviews = Fun: This review is from: WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2011 (Video Game) I was jonesing to play a wrestling game when I came to realize that my brother (also previously my roommate) took the XBox360 when he left, leaving me with my trusty ol' PS2 that's definitely a few years old. I was resigned to finding an older version of the game when I came across this and was like "A 2011 wrestling game for PS2? LOL it must be watered down but I'll play it anyway..." Turns out I would end up being thoroughly impressed with just about everything. The gameplay was relatively easy to get the hang of (it took some time figuring out how Ladder and Table matches worked but the controls for the regular matches were simple to figure out). The WWE Universe allows you follow week-by-week process of either your favorite or created wrestlers while allowing you to control or simulate whichever matches you wish (though in terms of title defenses, you have to win a Number 1 Contender Match and then a title bout instead of just receiving the belt). Wanna be your "favorite" superstar? Play as them on your road to Wrestlmania. With a bunch of hidden wrestlers and secrets, it's worth playing in simply to see all the sweetness you can find. So considering that the gameplay was excellent and the 7th-Gen type experience was brought down to this platform, will this indeed be the last WWE game for PS2? Considering the minor success this game is, some scuttlebutt around the internet seems to indicate that it may be in THQ's better interests to continue into the 2012 season. Unless the prices of consoles faces another drastic drop, there's many recession-minded consumers who're still glad to have a PS2 and if the technology isn't light-years into obsolescence, then maybe it's better to cater to the value-driven consumers than to forget about them and hope for the best. |
