Its alright
PostedNovember 15, 2008
Yeah we all know that the psp graphics to the Smackdown vs Raw 08 isn't all what its cracked up to be but hey what can you do. The storyline to this game is just as good as the console versions that are out there. It has somewhat of a challenge if you like to release your stress on the poor sucker you're wrestling in the game its just up to you to be the judge of that. The Hall of Fame part is where the challenge comes in since you're playing on legend. You could create your own character or play as a WWE superstar in the 24/7 mode. The exhibition mode is kinda fun especially when you bury a person alive in a casket. You get to create a WWE championship and you get to raise its popularity and tradition. The controls for this game is a little weird but after a while you'll get used to it.

I bought this game when I just got my psp and I think it was great for the first couple days. But after the first week I thought it just wasn't as entertaining anymore. But it is fun to jump off the ropes with rey mysterio every once in a while... there are a ton of different characters in this game and they are all pretty much balanced. Like you could fight great kahli with rey mysterio and win... that's a fun thing about it. Another thing is that there are a ton of different modes you can fight on. You can customize your own rules and own ring. Even have a 30 man royal rumble! Another cool thing is that you can make your own belt. I think that was pretty fun doing. I never got to play the story mode because of my memory card was too small. But all in all I would recommend this game to any psp user.

What I thought of the PSP version of '08
PostedNovember 10, 2008
So I've played every Smackdown! vs. RAW game out there (except '09) on every system they came on. True the PSP versions were never as good as the console versions, they are still great games. For people that say the storyline sucks, your pretty much wrong. The storyline is very intriguing and has many twists. I was constantly on my toes and was always eager to witness and play through the next turn of events, I won't deny though that some parts of the story dragged on longer than they should have, and just got tedious after a while. The graphics are exactly what you would expect a PSP to be able to handle, so there wasn't a "WOW!!!" factor there, but the control and gameplay was as excellent as the console games. All in all I'd say that the game is a must buy.

The Age of Gaming began with SvR08
PostedApril 17, 2008
I'm a big fan of the WWE of every superstar (except JTG) I didn't like the 06 and regular version of SvR but I like 07, but I love 08 much better (even though I wanted the Boggeyman to be in it). I would recommend this game to everyone. The storyline sucked but the special techniques looked so painful it looked like you were at the game (that might've never happened before). My favorited mode was hall of fame, where you can relive previous famous WWE matches like Bret Hart vs. Stone Cold, Stone Cold vs. Rock. As I had said before I recommend this game to anyone who loves the WWE. It's even better for the PSP, for you can play as Sgt. Slaughter, Jim Neidhart and Ed Guerro, in which you can't get from any other gaming system out there. I recommend this game!
