I am a huge fan of the Smackdown vs Raw series. I have had every game since it began. If you liked the past games in the SvR series, then this game is a must have! Most of the controls are the same as last year. So there will be no awkward attempts trying to get used to the game. The characters in the game are outstanding. A huge roster of over 60 people. Plus downloadable content that is soon to be released. Graphics are another amazing thing. The graphics are greatly improved from last year, and it looks a lot more smooth. Making this game one of the most beautiful games I have ever played. There are a couple of problems though. Such as: in Road to Wrestlemania mode. Its too short. Completing a storyline takes about an hour and a half. Career mode has some problems as well. For example, in order to complete it, you have to take every single title in the game. I was playing as the Big Show and I had to take the Cruiserweight title. That's not even close to being realistic. Overall this game is still one of the best wrestling games I have ever played. Although like many other games. It has some minor flaws, but if you can see past those flaws, you can see how good this game really is. I recommend this game to all wrestling fans.Read full review
One good thing about this game for Divas is that they can actually be used for Career Mode - but since you have to win all the belts for Career Mode, a diva fighting and winning against their way heavier counterparts does seem a tad unrealistic. What can I say though? The limited game modes divas can't play seem to even out that factor. No, I'm not like the sickos out there, I just find it more fun to play Hell in a Cell, and the Elimination Chamber with friends and all our created characters (including the girls).
The Road to Wrestlemania mode was a nice diversion and the storylines albeit short were some of the best ever in a wrestling game.This game is the best Smackdown vs. Raw game so far. My only complaint is the camera angles. When outside of the ring you can't see your opponent or your character. There's 53 different characters to use so you never get bored. The best part is that rey mysterio can pick up big show no problem. Most of the superstars in the WWE now are in the game. The controls are extremely easy to use and the graphics are top notch.The controls are extremely easy to use and the graphics are top notch. The difficulty for the game can be changed. but if you have played for a while even the hardest setting becomes quite easy. I hope in the next versions more characters and match types are included. Also, Hornswaggle becomes available as a manager only.Read full review
I had this game on the Wii when it got released in 2008. I recently got a ps3 and so happy to get smackdown vs raw 2009 on it. Thank you very much

This is a good game, the graphics are great and the game play is seemless. I liked some of the new features like the Road to Wrestlemania story mode although in this version you can no longer fight in the audiance. The fact that this game is a must if you play the the new Legends of Wrestlemainia because the smackdown vs. raw roster must be downloaded to finish the legend killer mode. In all it is a good play and I'd give it 4 out of 5
