    This is one of the best games in the series, from my point of view. a pretty good roster, Create-a-superstar mode, and GM mode. I still play it to this day, I even bought a new ps2 so I could continue to play it.

    THis is the buggiest Smackdown game too date. The commentary has nothing to do with in ring action, and commentators voices don't match with who's actually commentating. The commentary is 100% of last yrs with a few extra lines thrown in. CAW, the graphics on preview characters are like igsaws Random pixels missing. Story mode is boring, and pointless you get screwed every THis is the buggiest Smackdown game too date.

CAW, the graphics on preview characters are like igsaws Random pixels missing. Story mode is boring, and pointless you get screwed every month. and still win anyway. And the second yr is just a repeat of te first but you are the champ to start with. Post match the cutscenes show completely different results to what actually happened. YET your profile indicates the true result? Pretty Good selection of characters. Referee always and I mean always get's in the road. CPU tag partners are uselss as last yr's Ladder matches, the CPU only needs to grab the belt for the final few seconds, as If you go up and wrestle it down the CPU throws you off the aldder pretty easy and then just have to do the final few seconds (not start from scratch) Challenge Mode - You have the Superstar Challenges unlocked, but only 4 of the 16 Legend ones and no indication how to get the rest unlocked. PPV mode, you have to set Title Matches as title matches with no contestants or stipulations until you save the PPV and go to play it, then you have to set the matches one at a time. (SO DUMB!) There are countless other issues with this game, It's obviously stuffed and we should get refunds. I purchaesd it pre-order for $70(Aus) and a week later it dropped to $50 because it's so shit THQ/Jakks must go to the same Production School as EA/Dice. Release games wrought with bugs that are either never tested or released anyway I loved SVR til this one. Now i'm just Pissed Off.… Expand

    This game is another great game in the Smackdown! series. To any fan of the series, it's an inevitable disappointment. However, with a great analog grappling system, and a few other new things, you can look past these problems to enjoy yet another great game in this long running series.

    Yea I've been playing this game ever since it's come out, its an awesome game sorta confusing controls at first but once u get the hang of it its a peace of cake but u should make the controls back to square triangle x and o it was much better that way so well its still an really good game I rated a 9 since the controls are that confusing for me.

    This game is better than the older versions but has some problems. The biggest being that they have Umaga but not Jeff Hardy you re-dubted the next week or they don't have ECW on the roster or the lack of tag teams like the Spirit Squad or Paul London and Brian Kendrick. The controls though are spot on giving you a real good handle then the buttons that always felt awkward to me. but This game is better than the older versions but has some problems.

The new "environmental hotspots" which don't help all that muck in a match but are a pretty good help. The Money in The Bank match has been added is the hardest match to win and the Ladder and Tables match have gone some redesign. The Story Mode is probably the best single player experience but gives you an unfulfilled experience. The General Manger stinks so you can just skip that mode. But pretty much this game is the best in the series.… Expand

    Arguably the best of the WWE bunch. Pros: Fantastic graphics; great gameplay and controls; variety of superstars and matches; humorous story mode; addictive General Manager Mode. Cons: The online play has a few bugs; cruiserweights are practically useless against heavyweight superstars, making fan-favorite Rey Mysterio difficult to play.

    Its like most sports games where the next game is similar to the last. While it is different in its own way it feels like SvR 2006 just with a few updates.

    I honestly think that this is one the best SD!vR games in history, but not better than 08 or the original SD!vR, but still a really good game entirely

    Season and GM modes advanced little from the previous version, dodge based system prevails, and the combat system based on weights was brought to try to provide realism but get the opposite and makes it almost useless to the light weight characters.

    At the time, there hadn't been a great WWE game, apart from maybe Here Comes The Pain and 2006, since Shut Your Mouth!

The gameplay was very fun and I thoroughly enjoyed playing this with my friends and family. CAW mode was equally fun too.

    Only reason this game wasn't perfect was because of the occasional hiccups and glitches during the matches. Some bits and bobs were also limited, but apart from that, a fantastic PS2 game.    … Expand

    Однажды я поспорил с другом, что эта версия во много раз лучше чем новая WWE 2k19. И знаете, я оказался прав. Типов матчей больше, отменный саундтрек, замечательная карьера с открываемым контентом, ну и конечно как же без ГМ мода. Но чего-то мне не хватало, моя оценка была 9 из 10 (по эмоциям). Пока Гробовщик не проведет коронный "Oldschool" я не поставлю. И знаете, он его провел, иОднажды я поспорил с другом, что эта версия во много раз лучше чем новая WWE 2k19. И знаете, я оказался прав.

    Ben bu oyunun pc versiyonunu oynadım aslında ama burada bulamadım. Neyse kardeşimle karakter yaratır onlarla saatlerce oynardık. Kaybedip sinirlenince kardeşime vururdum arada.

    This was an amazing WWE game with tons of content. You will rarely get bored of playing it. There is GM Mode,great career mode plus some very unique match types the only problem are the glitches which could get very annoying

    So far this is the worst WWE I've ever played! The controls are terrible, the opponents dodge or retaliate almost every blow and the animations are terrible, it can be worse than WWE here comes to pain .. Just to get an idea of ​​how rotten the commands in this game are, you run by pressing the "∆" button. I've never seen that in my life!

    An influx of enjoyable new characters and stacks of authenticity keep this the finest grapple game on the planet. [Dec 2006, p.72]

    Although the improvements made to this year’s entry will keep me hooked for months, I can’t quite call SDvsR 2007 the perfect wrestling experience. There are still flaws here and there that irk me, like Diva matches that feel far too automated and the difficulty balancing in some of the tougher game modes.

    What SmackDown! vs. RAW 2007 improves isn't necessarily what the series actually needed to improve, but on its own merits, it's still a great wrestling game.
