Smackdown VS Raw 2006

[Guest clockworkraven]

I was going to ask if that meant they'd have a different climbing animation for the old-school cage, but then I remembered that those animations never actually touched the cage anyway.

Fuck that, I'd rather have the LOD than THREE Hogans. Like two of those couldn't just be alternate outfits? Seriously, Hogan's fucking moveset hasn't changed in 20+ years, there's no need for THREE separate character slots for his three variations..

 

On the plus side, I got 2/3 that I wanted in this game. No Mr. Perfect, though. :(

His finishers are a low blow and a diving leg drop. Sweet.

THE MILLION DOLLAR BELT IS IN!!!!!!

 

why does hogan still wear his bandana in the ring? They cant animate his crazy skullet can they?

 

Ill stop the nitpicking, this game is looking way better than last years to be honest.

And to cap off a big SD Vs. RAW news day... a look at the 3D Locker room:

Very much like the crib feature in other sports games.

It's hard to get any worse than last year's game, so they can only improve.

Looks pretty sweet. Like the idea of being able to save more than one locker room.

Why the fuck is Khosrow the WWE TAG TEAM CHAMPION!! Oh and he has no music? :S

[Aero 0]

The year they decide to take LOD out of the game, Animal becomes an active roster member.

The Three Faces of Hogan is very disappointing. I kind of thought that Taker and Classic Undertaker was a bit much for HCTP, until I played against both of them.

 

Looks like I get to make Vader again after my namesake, Low-Ki, and Killian. Ah well.

[Guest TheDon]

Take out 2 of the Hogans and Jimmy Hart. That could have been 3 different legends. I cant complain about Roberts or JYD though.

[Guest TheDon]

Hopefully the CAW is better this year so you can accurately make wrestlers.

They probably chose him and Hassan for some reason as Rosey isn't in the game this year. Otherwise, maybe the reviewer's took him through a match and won the title? dunno..

From what I saw, Daivari's on Smackdown. Hassan probably is, too.

 

Unless Sylvain's on Smackdown in the game, I guess he and Rob Conway (despite the new music) would be the default Raw Tag Team Champions.

What I have seen so far:

 

World Heavyweight Champion: Triple H

IC Champion: Shelton Benjamin

WWE Champion: John Cena

World Tag Team Champions: Rene Dupree and Rob Conway

WWE Tag Team Champions: Hassan and Daivari

 

Random tag team champs. Shelton is cool as IC Champ and it's acceptable cause he had it for a long time. HHH as World Champ would be fine if JBL was the WWE Champ but Cena is the WWE Champ so....weird.

The boxart is now considered false advertisement since Batista is shown as the World Heavyweight Champion instead of HHH.

 

As for the Tag Champs...that's what happens when Yukes leaves out notable wrestlers like Rosey and MNM.

Plus all of this could be changed by the final build. It's just a matter of switching who holds the titles.

[Team Angle Pusher 0]

But they made all those videos of HHH with the World Title..

Since the WWE loves to screw up the Legend list (not very happy w/three slots for Hogan and the absense of Old School Undertaker) why don't they just make a WWE Legends game?

[Guest clockworkraven]

Not a WWE game, I think, but as close as you're going to get.

[Danville_Wrestling 0]

Well I was always aware of the LoW series (thought they sucked), but with the WWE having lots of legends under contract couldn't they just create their own game with classic arenas, music, etc.?

 

It's probably not a marketable idea so we'll most likely never see it, but just something I'd definitely buy.

[PLAGIARISM! 0]

I just hope Perfect and Vader's moves are added.

[Guest TheDon]

Who wants to play a wrestling game made by acclaim. No wonder why that horrible company went out of business. The only good series they had was all star baseball for the N64.

well maybe the season storylines have the world title still on raw, since the voiceovers were recorded a long time ago and the titles just switched shows in june. if you looked at the videos you saw cena and big show invading raw on behalf of smackdown so......

[Guest clockworkraven]

IGN have a No Mercy PPV put up for subscribers. That's impressive, considering that the game doesn't feature half the wrestlers active on the show.

You could on SVR.

 

I've got pretty much dead on CAWs for every slot. You just need to find yourself a CAW making site and search for accurate ones.

Most of the faces for SVR CAW's that I've looked at are too similar due to the lack of different face models that were found in previous Smackdown games like SYM and HCTP.

Bastista is the champ in the game.

 

The only ones I couldn't make in the last year's SVR were the Midnight Express. My Muta and Savage were dead on clones. My only problem with my Bulldogs were the shoes.
