 It's like a drug!!! Feb 26, 2008
By Brian
Aside from the admittedly reduced roster, I still must say that "Smackdown vs. Raw 2008" remains every bit as addictive as any other WWE title that preceded it.
Much has already been voiced here about the "complicated" and "frustrating" controls and, I agree, they are. This is mostly why I opted for "Control Type B." This alternate control scheme was far more easier to navigate and, while I still don't prefer using those pesky analog sticks, I actually believe it grants the game more of a nostalgic arcade feel. It only really took me ten minutes to familiarize myself with how everything worked and, now, I'm pulling off suplexes, powerslams, and turnbuckle leaps like a seasoned pro! Anybody still amiss over the controls should therefore give this other set a try. They will all immediately notice a firsthand steady drop in their complaints.
I purchased the game this past weekend and am currently three months into the 24/7 mode with Ric Flair. Talk about a wrestling fan's wet dream! This new gaming experience ingeniously blends the traditional Season and General Manager modes from years past and gives us what is, essentially, a twenty-four hour seven-day-a-week breakdown of a professional wrestler's workaday life. It provides an overflowing plethora of character development options. You get statistical tracking and career goals that all serve to guide you toward the ultimate achievement of becoming a WWE Legend. What I find particularly cool is the whole "realism" aspect. If you're injured in any way during a match, you'll receive a text message encouraging you to pursue treatment. This means, to anybody who may not already know, that you rest up and relax on your "off" days. Rest & relaxation is but one of several options you have when you're not wrestling. You can sign autographs, conduct interviews, perform charity functions, or work on enhancing your physical skills. It all adds into your collective goal at rising up in the ranks and is, beyond any doubt, a postively awesome new feature that falls ito why I currently cannot get enough of this game.
Then, of course, comes the new struggle submission system. This is amazing! I'm currently using Ric Flair, as I've already said, case in point. His finisher, as any fan will tell you, is the Figure Four Leg Lock. I put this hold on Carlito in a recent match and the hold was broken! I know, big deal, right? Well, let me tell you how Carlito got out of it. He didn't grab the rope to force a break from the referee. No, Carlito actually pulled Flair's leg out from around his own and physically squirmed his way out of the hold! Call me a geek, but it's little touches like that a fanboy like me lives for! And, keep in mind, I've only been playing this for the last three days. There could be any number of other surprises I still have yet to see.
And the legends? Well, let me think. I haven't advanced far enough to unlock any yet. But, from what I've seen online, the big names we have on tap this year include: Bret Hart, "Ravishing" Rick Rude, "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, Sabu, Mick Foley, Terry Funk, and a few others that I may honestly be forgetting. Sabu, wow! The addition of ECW in this year's game is, to me, the quintessence of cool. That brings to mind the newly-added Extreme Rules match! Every weapon you can possibly imagine at your disposal, including the long-overdue ability to set fire to a table before slamming your opponent through its surface! Who couldn't want that?
It's obviously not going to be every gamer's cup of tea. But, at the same time, I completely fail to see how any true video-gaming wrestling nut could possibly pass this up! Trust me when I say....you will lose sleep, you will miss appointments, and long-time friends will forget your name if you plain and simply do not force yourself to put down the controller. This new game, for me, as I've already well established, is just that addictive and belongs in every fan's collection.

 as bad as WWE has become lately Jun 10, 2008
By Sicilian Diesel God
crappy roster, slow loading times, dumb angles in the story mode, terrible move controls, its almost impossible to do a reversal cause the opportunity flashes for half a second and in video game time it just doesn't work, it takes a tremendous effort to take the belt off the hook in the ladder match which makes it very frustrating, its hard to make tags, commentary gets old quickly...i could go on....they should make a game where the WWE world is free roaming and you choose your allies, enemies, your angles, etc...and then the computer puts their input based on your choices...I hate being forced to fight people when I don't want to and I HATED that Rowdy Piper came back and turned on me as a tag team partner - what purpose does that hold in 2008 - if I am Triple H why is Piper beating my a** and making me look like a loser??? maybe Kamala can come back too and feud with triple h in the next version, that would be just as smart...

 Major Disappointment Nov 13, 2007
By B Wiley
"BW"
Purchased Smackdown vs Raw 2007, one of the best most flexible games I had ever seen, the custom wrestler capabilities and variety was endless. AI engine had some issues, but even with that still the best game out. I couldn't wait for smackdown vs Raw 2008 (all they needed was to fix the AI and enhance graphics). Major disappoinment they fixed the AI by removing all of the customization available in 2007! Very disappointed, not worth it. Definitely a major step down from 2007! I would give it 0, but AMAZON requires at least 1 star.

By Sherri
"Matthew's Mom"
This game actualy kinda the same as '07 but there are some new fetures.
I got this game yesterday and I have set almost everything you can on
fire.You can have torches and tables on fire but you have to be winning
to set anything on fire.The customizing realy sucks ,You cant evev customize your locker room.
The worst in the series but still worth a look.. Mar 19, 2012
By K. Seyfert
I will start by saying this is going to be my most brief SVR review of the series.
Why rate it 4 stars for fun and 2 overall? For me it's as simple as saying this is SVR07 with the annoucing glitches fixed and somewhat improved load times. Had the game somehow managed to squeeze RVD and Angle in for one last hoorah I'd probably say it's a 5/5 for fun since their absence is a major downer (although you can make some pretty decent CAW's for each).
The new wrestling categories like Powerhouse and High Flyer I could really do without. In fact I pretty much ignore their existance (haven't even attempted to use them since I don't really want anything resembling an arcade experience when I play a wrestling video game unless I'm playing HCTP).
Certain things bother me that bothered me in SVR07 such as Chris Masters not being introduced as, "the Masterpiece". BUT.. if you win the match the announcer then remembers to announce you as "the Masterpiece" Chris Masters. Why not have the title during the entrance? Makes no sense to me.
The reduced number of grapples is basically the same as 07; with 2 grapples entirely dedicated to UCM's which takes some fun out things unless you actually like those.
**edit**
I forgot that in SVR07 you had 4 categories of grapples + a UCM per category but only 2 categories were wrestler specific. Sorry for that oversight.
**end edit*
The game looks great and plays equally well. The hit detection is spot on and it's nice to actually see the damage you do to your opponent really seem to effect them as the match grinds on. Ever notice in some of these titles that even though the guys are limping around from their beatings that they'll find some way to sprint across the ring to save their tag partner out of nowhere? That doesn't happen here; if you beat the opponent's tag partner to the point they're glowing red all over they are doing nothing but hobbling around the ring regardless of the situation. I actually didn't get this sense as much in 09 but I could be misremembering. I should play that one again to confirm...
Random side note.. the finisher special effect is by far the most dissapointing in the series. It's just a quick 3 angle view of the move with some weak sound effect (and kind of time warp-like effect). I would like to think given a bit of thought they could have come up with something better; especially considering how much I enjoy the finisher effects in 09 and 10.
As always it's a must own for any SVR fan EVEN IF this is widely considered the worst title in the series. By all means it probably is the worst when compared to the others but it's still worth owning just for the year to year changes in rosters/attires. Especially now when you can find every installment so cheap (5 dollars or less typically).
