The situation with our annual wrestling video games seems to mirror the wrestling scene in reality. Every year, Yukes, THQ and the Fed pump out their annual Smackdown vs. Raw title, rudely telling the fans what features they want to see implemented (li...
Smackdown vs Raw 2010 is in the exact same rut that the series has been for years, and I feel that most fans will know exactly what theyre getting themselves in for. So fans of the series or the current WWE product should be satisfied with the package...

Huge biceps and chests take center stage for another SmackDown vs. Raw title this year. 2010 offers more features than any previous title with increased options for creating content and sharing it over Xbox Live. I initially thought that with the creat...

I have skipped the last few Smackdown vs. Raw games because they were starting to blur together; the same basic (but admittedly excellent) controls, created content features, match modes, and so on. The 2010 edition has some very real improvements over...

The Smackdown Vs. Raw series has been the undisputed king of the ring (pun intended), when it comes to wrestling games, just like the parent franchise WWE has pretty much been ruling the wrestling franchise for generations. Sure there's TNA Impact and...
Very engaging creation modes, Noticeably better visuals and physics, Lots of shareable content...
Limited Road to Wrestlemania mode, Core gameplay may still feel the same...
Much to my liking, there is only one button that does all reversals now instead of 2 (as in last year's release). Because of this, the reversals can finally be used as a part of your wrestling strategy rather than buttons you spam when you're in a...

Much like the Madden NFL and NHL series, WWE video games have a tendency to suffer from “incremental-itis.” This little-known (because I just made it up) affliction affects games with annual iterations, and results from repeated new versions of a game...

I remember back in the late 80's when I was in high school there was all kinds of publicity for the WWF and “Hulkamania”. I never really bought into the whole thing. About the only interest I had was when John Stossel did an interview on 20/20 with “D...

For a few years there it seemed like the SmackDown series was getting stagnant and not really moving forward. That definitely isn’t the case with WWE SmackDown! Vs. Raw 2010. There are improvements and additions all over the place, from being able to c...

This year, THQ is taking pro wrestling as a social experience to a new plateau. With WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2010, players can create their own interactive storylines, cut custom promos, make backstage assaults, and book the matches of their dreams. It's...
Story designer great for interactive storytelling; lots of fun match types and plenty of content.
Unplayable online; strict limitations to crafting and using custom Superstars; high load times and clipping.

When I agreed to take a trip to THQ and see the new Smackdown vs. Raw 2010 and review the game, I didn't realize what I was getting myself into. I haven't really been into wrestling since I was a kid, and the old days of Hulk Hogan, Rowdy Roddy Piper...

THQ has done a good job gearing up the franchise for the future with the inclusion of downloadable user-created content. Downloading storylines that involve the G.I. Joe villain, Cobra Commander, buying the WWE from Vince McMahon should be one of the g...

Let’s get ready to Rumble!! And what a Rumble is will be. The WWE has been producing games as far back as Arcade machines and the late 80’s. Gaming has come a long way since the days of 4 moves and some cheap finishers. Gone are the pixilated grap...
For any wrestling fan out there, WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2010 is a must have. The game is the best wrestling sim available to date and includes so many features that you will be gaming for months or years with this game. With the creation modes in the g...

WWE Smackdown vs RAW is a series that's been small on updates. Each year we hope for something significantly different that will make the game a big step up from what has gone before, but THQ has definitely been taking baby steps. It's no surprise then...
Best customisation features yet, Refined gameplay, Tons of match options, Fighting still feels a little clunky...
