New features
Old features
Unconfirmed:
the game doesn't support Wi-Fi Connection
Game Sharing (single cart/download play)
connectivity with the corresponding Wii game.
most likely the game's graphics would be similar to last years (maybe not because of the new developers but they could always ask for the guys at THQ)
What do think guys?
Cant wait for this and the wii version.
Highlights:
QUOTE said:Primarily, Smackdown Vs. Raw's development is now in the hands of a new team, the folks at Tose (who developed the awesome Dragon Quest Rocket Slime).
Instead of relying solely on frustrating stylus mechanics, WWE Smackdown Vs. Raw utilizes a combination of D-pad control movements, button presses and stylus movements
You control your wrestler's general movement with the directional pad and then execute drawn motions on the stylus. Tapping the screen creates quick strikes, while circling your opponent creates a grapple, followed by a number of moves depending on which direction you draw. Other complex moves, such as Irish whips or counters, come off very easily with this system.
This year's roster is highly expanded with 30 WWE superstars from the Raw, Smackdown and ECW brands, such as John Cena, The Undertaker, Batista and more.
If you can't find your favorite, however, the game's new Create-a-Wrestler mode makes up for it.
Various match types in WWE Smackdown Vs. Raw 2009 definitely cater to the sports' fans. If you ever wanted to try your luck in a Hell in a Cell match, now's your chance. You can also check out a Ladder Match, Tables Match, and various others.
The game also supports multi-card multiplayer, so you can hook up with (or against) a friend and show them your wrestling skills
Unfortunately, the game doesn't support Wi-Fi Connection, and THQ was quiet when we asked about Game Sharing and connectivity with the corresponding Wii game.
Lastly, the plays almost like a role-playing game.
